Noticed the jockey rides thread which is great but how many winners do we think roughly she might have?
 
One would be good. Anything extra a bonus. I believe she is still looking for her first course win and only has 12 rides their in last 5 years. She is very good and is going where no female has before but I am a great believer in backing individuals and teams to repeat previous success - breakthroughs are hard.
 
She was 6/4 with Skybet to ride 1 winner. I’m still undecided if those odds are good or bad when you consider the competition. What do you think??

I think you could find a much better 6/4 chance at cheltenham. if it was between her winning a race or Sir Eric, I would go for the latter, or tiger roll if he drifts slightly.

Doubt she will have loads of rides so probably best trying to find a winner at a price. Don’t know if she will ride Monalee but I suspect she will ride Sinoria (12/1) in the MNH and Cuneo (16/1) in the pertemps, both of which I have already backed and fancy quite strongly.
 
She rode honeysuckle last time out

Yep - probably about right
 
Not convinced you would swap the favourite out of a race to accomadate

Yeh that’s a fair point mate. I backed both before this so I was prepared for Sinoria not be ridden by RB.
 
I looked back at it and HdB said she would be entered in both but didn’t make a firm commitment either way
 
Good stuff thanks wanted to see that

She's the jockey for both and I, for one, hope they give Sinoria a chance in the Ballymore and let Honeysuckle stay in the Novice (not sure why they would split them up the other way) She's a great jockey and gets the horses in a lovely rhythm and jumping well. Will be on Monalee (unless claimed for Gigginstown) and a number of Giggy horses. That all being said, and while being hopeful of Sinoria, there is no obvious winner to justify 6/4.
 
Thanks for the extra help here. I was looking at the 6/1 for 2+ winners. That was my angle here.
The only person in the way currently is Mr Jack Kennedy

I know, but Sinoria and Honeysuckle have the same owner so think they will separate them with Honeysuckle going Ballymore

As far as i can see, Sinoria does not have an entry for the novices, am i correct?
