Chelters 2016 Antepost bets

Guys SENEWALK for the supreme next year. Same family as Douvan. 12/1 right now. Hearing that it will be a good thing if it gets there injury free.

16/1 La Bague Au Roi - Mares Novice Hurdle. Though she will probbaly be too good for this race.

Aintree Bumper still on ?

Warren Greatrex's high opinion of La Bague Au Roi was further bolstered after she maintained her unbeaten status in convincing fashion in the Betfred Mobile Henrietta Knight Mares' Standard Open National Hunt Flat Race at Huntingdon.

Winning with a fair bit in hand at Newton Abbot and Aintree, the imposing four-year-old made it three from three with a similarly impressive performance in the Listed contest.

Although faced with a stack of challengers turning for home in the extended one-mile-seven-furlong contest, the 5-6 favourite kicked again to draw right away from her rivals for an eased down five-length victory.

Greatrex said: "She is special and as good as you get. She had to do it the hard way.but we probably had the best rider (Gavin Sheehan) from the front on her.

"I've always said I hold her in high regard but I don't think she was at her best either today, although she hit the line running.

"She will go to Aintree for the bumper in April and will have a nice break now. Getting the spring weather on her back will help improve her and hopefully she can make it four out of four there. She has got a bright future."

Only heard about this the other day. Guess I'm a few months behind the news. You reckon it could be something special. Seems the most obvious route that the Mullins/Ricci usually take with these new horses. As for the rest LMAO where they will be placed is ridiculous to predict and will probably only be a betting proposition a few days before. No chances been taken next year lost a lot with the late switches. So would like a run for my money next year at least.

Aintree bumper is still the target. They must think she can win it while keeping her novice hurdling status for next season.

JM05, If Ricci gives it then it must be worth a bet? I would probably wait for any race markets and then lump on
