“I’m not sure there’s an awful lot she can go for in March. She’d ideally want two and a half miles, but then you meet Envoi Allen (in the Marsh Novices’ Chase).
“There’s the new mares’ chase, but that’s not really for novices – after just one run, that would be asking quite a lot.
January 18, 2021 at 17:52 #1518124I think Nicky’s missing a trick there with the weight allowance she receives.

Hindsight is 20/20 so make the most of it!January 18, 2021 at 20:48 #1518152I think hes losing his marbles judging by the way he’s campaigned his horses this season
January 18, 2021 at 21:01 #1518153An argument can be made that she is an inexperienced novice.
But a counter-argument can be made that noone knows what attributes are needed to win the race as its the first ever Mares Chase. Plus no PTKO, and BDD meeting with a setback status unknown, and horses including Colreevy carrying a penalty.January 27, 2021 at 13:49 #1519915With doubts over DDC’s participation, I’ve added Elimay 7-1 ew who ran well today and wont get a penalty as I understand it.
January 27, 2021 at 14:14 #1519923She’s a nice mare Mike and that’s a good bet.
January 27, 2021 at 14:28 #1519927Hope so. Shes running in a Listed Chase next and then on to this so looks like I have a runner at least. Read that Colreevy may miss Cheltenham but not definite.
If both run i reckon BDD might go Mares Hurdle again if fit.January 27, 2021 at 21:34 #1520008Unless benie runs i cant see anything beating elimay
Will have to try an acca to get her onside at a better price
January 27, 2021 at 21:37 #1520009Trainer of DDC doesn’t want to be racing out of Novice Company. Or taking on top novices. Fearless!

BUY THE SUN
January 27, 2021 at 21:51 #1520017Maybe he wants there to be a mares’ novices chase at the festival. But then Colreevy would be in it. What’s a trainer to do?
January 27, 2021 at 22:49 #1520028Hes the biggest plonker in racing atm
January 27, 2021 at 23:07 #1520030Its bloody ridiculous at the minute.
1. Don’t want to come out of Novice company.
2. Don’t want to race against a good Novice either, mind you.I wish the BHA would create a few walkover races to make things a bit fairer for him.

February 16, 2021 at 19:53 #1523327After days of rumours willie has confirmed benie hasn’t been training well and won’t make the festival
March 18, 2021 at 23:40 #1530900I’ve gone with the 40s ew on Cabaret Queen. This is a slightly bigger better field than I thought it would be.
