I wouldn't say that re Benie though as the discrepancy between her mares price and chase price (B365 5/1 and 7/1) is no way near as stark as the price differential on Honeysuckle for the Mares/Champion.
My OP was trying to give a sense of market perspective Lobos because I know you want it to happen, but we know quite a lot about her and she's 16/1 for the Champion and 7/2 for the Mares. IMO that says two things. One, the bookies think she's far more likely to go mares and two, the boookies are happy offering 16/1 because her form (at the moment) is clearly better over 2m4f than 2m. Neither are ringing endorsements of a CH campaign, but of course anything could change and she could prove me wrong and do wonderful things in the Irish Champion Hurdle, so we'll see.
I don't want it to happen though. I've backed Honey TWAR and for the Mares Hurdle and in doubles. I've got plenty happening with Epatante as well. I just think it will happen so I've now covered her in the Churdle as well. I'll end up with two good darts, probably the two best darts, at the Champion Hurdle but I'd rather have two winners !
