    Nah doubt it SaveTheHumans. I suspect she lacks the speed for that race but you can't crib today's performance as Zarakander was also over his correct trip and he got beat with contemptuous ease. Very impressive.

    It's interesting where she'll go (probably World Hurdle?) but I think the real question is how she rates against Quevega? To play devil's advocate if Willie was to stick his best mare into the World Hurdle (harder race) would that mean Quevega runs there and Annie Power in the Mares?? Nice problems to have for that Mullins fella aren't they <laugh>

    Brilliant problem to have , spoilt for choice. Ruby will have a fair idea on where to go too like I suppose he won't want to put her in a WH if he doesn't think she will beat Big Bucks, interesting all the same she will have to run in one of the races anyway you would imagine especially after today.

    No concerns for me Beefy- TNO would have won a bit more easily but for some final hurdle buffeting and he stayed up the hill well that day.

    This Annie Power is a serious mare however and I'd want to be on the right side of her at whichever race she turns up in. She sluices through soft ground- never known a filly like it. Majorly impressed.

    Sorry to after time but I couldn't let spurs go un backed against Man Utd at 4/1, ridiculous price against a poor man utd side. I'm getting more and more confident week by week that my bet for United to not finish top 4 is going to come in!

    And back to racing well done to Annie Power looks a really class mare, I honestly thought Zarkander would be able to beat her today.
