just imagine if AP was owned by someone else ..she would be racing against VVM today and MTOY would have won the CH

If she was owned by someone else she would have been running in her 3rd champ hurdle today

not really finalised yet but i reckon AP has run to a 169 today...that might be a tad high....so it would be a borderline job giving 7 to her..he might just do it..would be a great race

How would you rate VVM?

very difficult as every race is slowly run it seems she takes part in..and today was difficult as all the finishing times splits are affected by tailwind..for instance today she ran the slowest from 3 out of every race..even slower than the 4 mile chase..fair enough the chase 3 out is slightly closer than the 3 out hurdle...about .0.2f....She just looks what she is..handing 130+ hosses their arses on a plate. It was a poor finishing effort and it wasn't like they went too fast early on either
the stand out sect today was Douvan he ran the fastest 3 out time of all the races by some way..2 second faster than Altior and 3 faster than AP.

Do you think he will benefit from a step up in trip on that basis?

no..i'd see him more as a 2 miler with that speed..similar to SS..they will probably try as is their want.
