Mullins doesn’t apply headgear very often, which suggests he is still not confident about Lossiemouth. However, now she is running I believe she is the most likely winner. Is The New Lion (or any of the other geldings) good enough to concede her 7lbs?

There might be a mare good enough though.

He’s applied the headgear sparingly but it’s often worked- think i saw 11 times out of 17 or something with favs. It’s clear they see her as much better over the middle distance.

I just can’t get out of my head how meh she looked at the DRF. Yes BDA hasn’t shown her best here, but she ran decent in the mares novice where her and JDG beat eachother.

I’ll admit i probably won’t bet the race, as Lossie reeks of a typical Mullins special, but after DRF she couldn’t carry my £
