This is all I could text-copy from the online RP:
Brilliant Vroum Vroum Mag to motor to victory at a tasty 10-1
WILLIE MULLINS dominates the vast majority of the Grade 1 races at the Cheltenham Festival but
bookmakers don’t appear to rate his chances of winning the Ladbrokes World Hurdle that highly.
However, that is not to say he isn’t going to have a few runners in the race and it could be that the
brilliant mare
Vroum Vroum Mag goes for this test. If that is the case, she would be a massive threat to Thistlecrack
and Camping Ground.
Vroum Vroum Mag is likely to have loads of different options and the trainer will probably make his mind
up at the fiveday acceptance stage as to what race she will run in, but we don’t have to worry about that
with the nonrunner no bet concession and there is no way she will be a doublefigure price if she runs.
Vroum Vroum Mag hasn’t come off the bridle on any start for the Mullins team and after she won over
hurdles at Clonmel last time, the trainer suggested she would be kept to the smaller obstacles for the time
being. She would have the option of the OLBG Mares’ Hurdle but surely that is the race Annie Power is going
to run in and therefore she looks worth backing at a doublefigure price.
It’s all potential with Vroum Vroum Mag and, despite not beating much in Ireland so far, she couldn’t
have won her races with any more in hand and could be anything
Thistlecrack has been a revelation since being upped to three miles and he was sensational at Ascot last
time. He was keen throughout the preliminaries and during the race but swept by Reve De Sivola on the
bridle two from home, winning with any amount in hand.
The issue with him is the track. By far the worst race Thistlecrack has ever run was his only try at
Cheltenham and while that is probably a red herring, he is only 94 and he’ll probably be a bigger price on the
day.
Camping Ground looked equally good when hacking up at Cheltenham 13 days ago. He relished the
heavy ground that day but there is no reason why he won’t go on better ground or stay three miles. He has
to be seriously considered.
Last season’s winner Cole Harden will appreciate the better ground in March, but this year’s contest looks
a lot stronger and he has been beaten a long way on both his starts this campaign.
Aux Ptits Soins was impressive when winning the Coral Cup last March but that
