That looks a solid bet ista
She held on gamely today, has a fairly low action and looked to enjoy the good ground
As a galileo filly a bit like hermosa and love anything she’s done this year is a bonus and will be no surprise if she takes an enormous step forward from 2 to 3
1000 guineas is a bit confusing to me atm. Theres a well bred filly that AOB has but not seen a racecourse yet.
Indigo Girl .. 20/1
Sister of Journey and very like her in looks and temperament.
Things turn out best for those who make the best of how things turn out...Had a rare Antepost for this on Monday at 33’s, after nice run at Leopardstown.
Monday 33’s EW
1000 guineas
Indigo Girl 12/1
The Oaks
Indigo Girl 16/1To me the fillies mile looks the race to concentrate on here and Indigo Girl looked the horse to take out of it. Missed the break and was a bit green when coming out of the dip before getting the hang of things and running on. She just wasn’t as professional as the winner and must have greater scope for improvement.
With her breeding and trainer youd think she might be more of an Oaks filly but will back her for both anyway as think she is a very good prospect.
Shale for me at 16/1 at the moment, beaten Pretty Gorgeous twice on decent ground, was almost heavy in the fillies mile.
Small antepost on Joan of Arc and Fev Rover at 33s also. The market reaction on JOA from Sunday however is crazy!
Indigo Girl looks more Oaks to me as you say FF
Already have
1000 Guineas Indigo Girl and Snow Lantern.Just watched Joan Of Arc’s race at the Curragh on Sunday and think she will have to improve a lot to beat the 1st and 2nd in the Group 1 Fillies Mile last year, that was a Group 1 race and Indigo Girl so unlucky to have been slowly away she was closing on Pretty Gorgeous at the finish but PG held on to just take it. Up to then she had been unbeaten but she proved she handled the track.
The question is..Can Joan Of Arc improve enough from that run on Sunday in time for the English Guineas?
I would rather have her for the Irish 1000 at this stage.Indigo Girl 20/1
Snow Lantern 33/1Jac

Added her myself yesterday boosted to 18s
Has a very similar profile to hermosa and love
Hoping for a big step forward from 2 to 3
My post on September 13 2020 was about Joan Of Arc.
Whether she’s a bet in this is another matter.
Aidan glowing about Santa Barbara for this in his Stable Tour and the markets today have moved accordingly.
Some crazy prices on the FAVS in these classics this year.
Backed Saffron Beach @ 25’s EW this morning for this.
Never went into training till mid July last year and fairly bolted up on debut before going on to win at the course again in the Oh So Sharp Stakes.
They put off a trip to the Breeders Cup to aim her at this and is reported to of totally transformed physically over the winter. Starts off at Newmarket again in the Nell Gwynn.
