Can Aurora Vega run in the Champion Bumper as will be 6yo come the fest?

The answer is Yes. The 6yo rule is after season end. She would have to go straight to the Champion Bumper though as it'll be her 4th run. More likely to stay in Ireland this season.

Cheers me West Country Cousin. Been hovering me finger over the double boost on her. Thinks i will pass.
 
Dont seem right to me that you could have the winner of the DRF Bumper not turning up for the Champion Bumper in March. Wouldnt a case for win and your in be a better option?

Sat watching Sky Racing and they are interviewing Harry Fry, basically said that Love Envoi has fully recovered from her set back, is looking good and all roads lead to the Mares Hurdle at Cheltenham. Said something along the lines of now there's no Honeysuckle they are feeling pretty confident.

Feel like last season was her chance

Unlikely the other jockeys will be as generous gifting her that easy lead again

Agree. It's a definite case of hang onto those dollars and wait for the all important entries rather than diving in the deep end.

Same as Jonbon. With her allowance Qualimita was 1lb better though!

Zachx02 No idea and I doubt we'll know for some time as tends to be the case with private sales.

Captain Bellamy given a 97 as well for his win in April.
 
Teeshan was 16 seconds quicker than any other race on the day which is also an impressive stat too.
