Looking at the form of this horse and it's pretty impressive with wins over Arctic Fire and has raced alongside Ascot Gold Cup winner Leading Light.. This must be a good horse and with S De Dousa whos in pretty good form as of late it seems like a cracking bet at 16/1.

Is it down to the mare is 9 yrs old and will hop out of Draw 1 that the bookies are quoting 16s about this?

Yes the Dr's horses are giving me a headache - Angel Gabriel does appear the best selection of his lot

A low draw is not always the best place to be as the stalls are over the far side from the rails and the middle draw horses make a bee line for the inside cutting off all the inside drawn horses, partly because most of the jockeys are halfwits they just sit and get chopped off.

It is a price that reflects the money on the horse

She has a massive chance. Suffered a lot last year with different niggles but she's back in great form this year . Will love the trip and every drop of rain that falls will do her chances no harm. Put it this way, She'll be the best of the irish contenders. Won't be starting at a double figure price either.
