    Really hope Marie’s Rock ends up in this. Teahupoo is a tougher opponent than any of the mares in my opinion.

    My only interest in this is to back Honeysuckle – though not at as big a price as some – but it’s against my better judgement as regressive racehorses usually find a way to lose even if the numbers say otherwise.

    I’d say so, HDLG, but I think she won’t run to even this season’s level because she’s regressing – that’s my point.

    I will be pleasantly surprised if I collect tbh.

    If the ground is going to be soft, I think Love Envoi comes back into the equation here.

    I backed her after her Sandown stroll but had slightly gone off her. But the conditions look like they might be coming right for her.

    I doubt Epatante or Echoes in Rain are going to relish the distance on the ground (I will not be surprised if Epatante runs in the Champion instead). I am still not convinced by Brandy Love.

    The big question is where is Maries Rock going to run.

    Maries rock is now favourite to win this on the exchange after being 15.0 yesterday morning

    Brandy Love for me, worth taking a chance that she’ll be fully fit at 6/1. Herself and Allergori De Vassy were miles ahead of the rest of the mare novice hurdlers last season and Brandy Love’s demolition of Love Envoi can’t be overlooked.

    Looks like Mullins has sorted out her lunatic antics and if she’s as good as I think she is she’ll beat a declining Epatante and Honeysuckle and should be better than Maries Rock who won a lacklustre mares hurdle last year.

    I think there is more than a fair chance that Maries Rock will come here with the ground the way it is and try a repeat. They can go 3 miles at Aintree if they want.

    I’ll be astonished if she doesn’t run in this now!

    It’s the right race even on good to soft. If they were to attempt 3m on Thursday in soft (possibly worse looking at the forecast) it would be suicidal to her chances!

    Tom Palin confirms Marie’s Rock going for the Mares with Nico on board.

    Marie is going to need a personal best to win here , this is a much stronger renewal than last year , it’s not a race I normally bother to much with but with 12s on Honeysuckle and 6s Epanante I’m hoping it’s going to be enjoyable and profitable

    Winning the relkeel on her only start this season seems the best bit of form on offer to me.

    The soft ground plays into her hands more than anyone else’s also.

    Id say Honeysuckles 2nd last time is stronger , it’ll be interesting to see if the money comes for her if State Man runs a big race
