Having a friendly argument with a mate. He says it will be the biggest drifter of the Festival (from current prices) and reckons you'll be able to get 9/2 or better. On the downgrade, will be looked after in last race, major punters won't go near her etc etc.
I think she'll go off at 3/1 or lower. Favourite of the casual punters (and that's a lot of tenners), they won't run her unless she's fit and well, still a lot of ability anyway.
For the purposes of this argument, Marie's Rock will run in the race. (Looks like she will anyway and I think she'll win).
That is a terrific question. I'm going to go for 6/4. She's the two time champion hurdler, running over what may be her better trip. Last time out, she was only beaten 5 l by the clear second favorite for the Champion Hurdle. She's clear top on ratings (OR and RPR). I think some big money may come for her close to the race, especially if State Man gets close to Consitution Hill.

Laying the place is an interesting one. Quite likely that should she not have a chance of winning Rachael will go VERY easy on her...
Love the complete difference of opinion between Bentring and strontium - that's what this game is all about!
Well, she's not even fav any more in some books so it looks like the 4/1 and over people might be correct...
