Limini can put Aintree disappointment behind her

Just the two rides for me again this afternoon, and Limini looks to have the better chance of the two. She was probably a bit disappointing at Aintree, but was too keen for her own good and got found out at the end of the race.

Limini can put Aintree disappointment behind her

But that was a big step up for her and she was taking on geldings, while today she’s back against her own sex. She won her maiden hurdle here last May, and won a grade three over two and a quarter miles, so neither the track nor today’s trip is a concern.

But it’s a very good race, and she is taking on decent mares. Rock On The Moor finished second behind Vroum Vroum Mag in the mares’ hurdle at Cheltenham in March, and Joseph O’Brien’s filly, Slowmotion, looked very good at Fairyhouse. But I’d be pretty hopeful Limini will take a lot of beating.
