    “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.

    I think Nicky’s missing a trick there with the weight allowance she receives.

    I think hes losing his marbles judging by the way he’s campaigned his horses this season

    An 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.

    With 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.

    She’s a nice mare Mike and that’s a good bet.

    Hope 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.

    Trainer of DDC doesn’t want to be racing out of Novice Company. Or taking on top novices. Fearless! :unsure:

    Maybe 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? :unsure:

    Its 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.

    I’ve gone with the 40s ew on Cabaret Queen. This is a slightly bigger better field than I thought it would be.
