And we still haven’t included the banc winner final demand in one yet!

He is under serious consideration.

I was looking at this market earlier today and it's proper ropey, IMO.

Final Demand looks made to be chaser, and one for 3m, so he, at this stage at least, is looking likely to be included.

I'm aware this isn't particularly exciting but...

I like the Lossiemouth Champion Hurdle / Woodoh Mares combination still. As I've made them more related than they maybe are. Lossie surely goes to a very open looking CH and makes the Mares look a good opportunity for Woodoh.

Marine National (CC) and William Munny (Arkle) another combination that I like. Although they have very little impact on each others chances of course. The champion chase looks dire imo and there's not much coming through from the novice ranks. Don't think I'd back Sir Gino at 7/2 just to turn up on the day tbh.

Not convinced this is any way to start a discussion….

:D Aye, that was a bit tongue in cheek if you like. You know what I mean... 'Should go'. And probably a short enough priced fav if she does imo...

Every chance if something arrives around March in great form, whether that's a rejuvenated Con Hill, or Sir Gino is back over timber, or Kopek doesn't take to fences etc then Ricci and Mullins would have no problem winning another facile Mares and laughing at every ante post punter out there...

100%. Couldn't trust them even if they said Champion Hurdle, so might as well take the punt before they start talking shite. Think she either goes off short priced fav or doesn't go...

I don't actually see the Con Hill, SG or Kopek angles happening mind.

More concerned about State Man still
 
Bumper crop looks shite, best one of Willie's only had 1 run and wasnt seen again - Doctor Du Mesnil for the supreme for me

Yep agree, bizarrely I forgot about State Man...

They should've gone Champion Hurdle this year of course imo but...

As preps she'd been beaten easily by Constitution Hill over Christmas, who she'd have to face again in March. And had fallen behind State Man. I think arriving in great form is probably a stretch. And with the hyped Brighterdaysahead going for the Champion Hurdle as second fav, you can see why the Mares entered the conversation.

I'd be hoping for better in pre festival runs this year, as a Champion Hurdle backer. If she comes to the 2026 festival with similar form figures then I absolutely expect her to go Mares again.
 
I know willie suggested JDG to stay hurdling but 33/1 for mares chase looks very generous to me
 
Just bumping this.

Obviously with Royal Ascot on, the likely focus on a NH Yankee bet is at a bare minimum, but I've decided on two for the bet already, which have been mentioned by other members, so need two more.

I'm keen to add one of my own selections, but will see how it all plays with discussion on here over the next week or so.

If there are no further inspiring opinions I'll just stick two of my own in, and if it comes in take all the glory and if it doesn't blame you all for not contributing :ROFLMAO:

….might be worth confirming the two already in (or the two races we should ignore) so focus on the other races you nominated?
