Mares Novice Hurdle 2020

Staggeringly early kick in the proverbials, and a very painful blow at that....
 
Sickener for the stable and for us Gypsy Island fans. I had her at 16/1 for the Mares Novice and 17s Any Race.

This is why we look at more than one horse in a race, anything can happen, particularly in jump racing. Now holding on to The Glancing Queen and Lamarckise in the Mares Novice in the hope they both stay fit and well.
 
Ah Shite.. A 25-1 ticket in the bin as well as. Double with Envoi Allen...
GI, 20-1 Malone Road + doubles and 40-1 Draconien all sickeners for me... Not even in December yet
 
Ouch. 365 have really upped their game cash out wise in suspending the markets too
 
That's a bit of a blow although have backed others in the race so hopefully still get the winner.......some nice multi's down though
 
Made Lamarckise job easier. Silver lining and all that.
 
Neither of Willie's two show up.....presumably as it's over 2m6. disappointing still.

Lamarckise was balloted out.

Obviously goes without saying, awful news on gypsy island.
Was hoping these 2 might even have met 1st time up. And especially down the line.

Didn't spot that! went in again a bit on her even if 11s was a bit on the short side.

Awful news on Gypsy for most concerned in here

Iv done the same. Hopefully will be the last time that she'll be a backable price pre chelt.
 
I wonder when news actually broke from trainer of her injury. Backed her yesterday. Bookies have duty to refund if news broke before bets placed surely?

:). Good luck with that
 
Oh Lobos! Forum gold!

Managed to get bets refunded in the past. Just need to do some digging and persevere. Only 30 quid so not as bad as some but money is money !
 
With news of GI maybe connections of Fujimoto Flyer might be tempted by this race now?
 
Any Gypsy Island fans who are looking for some solace from a replacement and like Lamarckise. All firms have chopped her to 5/1 or 6/1, however B365 still have her at 10/1 for Any Festival Race at the bottom of their racing page.

She needs to atleast start next time to go anywhere at all. Planted her feet and refused to race at auteuil. Not a good sign.

Thanks Hamptonfox, added
 
What’s the French whip like?

UK having a long whip obviously made a difference with Labaik
