Banimpire?

Welcome to the Forum Earl

Bonjour!

Looks to have decent form but raced a lot this year so far

As you say, she's had a ridiculous amount of racing already this season and the times of her last two wins have been particularly slow. Any rain would look to count against her as well.

Poor value.

has there been rain?

not yet but the RP is forecasting it before midday tomorrow:

6 runs already?, does seem excessive especially for a 3yo, but you can look at it another way and say those runs have toughened her up unlike a lot of the more lightly raced fillies she faces today, has some good form on the book, her third to Lolly for Dolly got a boost yesterday, Lolly herself having ran 4 times this year before winning yesterday, those 4 runs probably gave her a fitness advantage over most of her rivals, albeit she is a 4yo, did show admirable tenacity in the finish.
Can see Banimpire been bang there at the business end but 3/1 does look a bit skinny, not exactly a race to have the mortgage on, wouldn't surprise if "Look at Me" is the latest Coolmore animal to make miraculous improvement from its runs this year, might just have a nibble on her just incase?.

good to soft, soft in places - Stickels (clerk of the course) just told Tommo on ATR.

Soft ground will make stalls 1-4 disadvantageous over 1m4f so Banimpire got tough task on his hands, other 3 drawn low are outsiders anyway

You have got to love this filly,tough,classy,consistant,gives everything,goes on any ground and has really improved for the step up to 12f the last twice

Fair play to her. It's questionable what she beat but she's a tough old bird.

SERIOUS filly - great attitude: will be a fab brood mare (being out of a v promising young sire Holy Roman Emp and Kris on the Dam's side will interest some) and is entered in the Irish Oaks so may not have seen the best of her yet!

Were you on FormMan??

I was on yeah,backed her wens night and was not happy to wake up to the rain this morning but her class saw her through,thats twice in a week this filly has done me a favor as was on at cork sunday as well,she did it well

Congrats! I fancy Nathaniel in the 3.05 tomorrow

well done MrTea. you aint no fool

Certainly could not put you off Nathaniel mr Tea,looks a competitive race but he is certainly the form horse,excellent 2nd to the derby runner up Treasure Beach at Chester last time out,only beaten a head that day and had slumber 3 lengths back in 3rd who was placed here yesterday,clearly didnt enjoy the chester track and probably would have won that at another track,he was an easy 9 length winner of his maiden at haydock and has form on the soft when only beaten half a length by the mighty Frankle at newmarket last year,lets hope he comes in for the backers

Congrats Mr Tead and fellow backers the form was in the book and clear for everyone to see and collect
