Queen Marsh Wren this morning.

[Racing Post @RacingPost]

The biggest cheer though was for Marsh Wren! 🔵⚪️

What a super run to finish third 🥉

[John Bartlett @Johny5issoalive]

I can't believe what has just happened. I could not be more proud of Marsh Wren. What a tough tough mare. Bursting into tears when she came back in wasn't part of the plan but there we go! Unbelievable.

A brilliant run to finish third in the Mrs @paddypower Mares’ Chase.

Take a bow, @sedmundsracing and @CM_Gethings 🫡

Enterprising training and riding yields handsome dividends with Marsh Wren, who takes flight in the mares' novice chase over 2m6f 👀

Edmunds, with three winners from his last four runners, is 🔥

@Leewoolward Deserve nothing less than to be losing. Been sluggish, slow and shit all game

[JohnK @Johnk9632]

@Leewoolward Look at the signings we made tho. Been trying to be a bigger team physically for 2 seasons now

[JohnK @Johnk9632]

@Leewoolward Nah it’s just simply zinchenko is injured and tomiyasu only just back from injury. Kiwior is the backup LCB. Shouldn’t be the inverted player cos he can’t do it and then struggles out wide as we seen

[JohnK @Johnk9632]

@Leewoolward I don’t disagree with the bet. Everything else is a horrific take 😂

[JohnK @Johnk9632]

@Leewoolward Love a performance where a goal masks him losing his man 15 times to give us chances we can’t take 😂

[Warwick Racecourse @WarwickRaces]

👏 A gritty performance from Marsh Wren who keps on tenaciously to land the Duncan Smith Over The Hill Birthday Mares' Novices' Handicap Chase for Stuart Edmunds & Ciaran Gethings

@yf_FzZ @Leewoolward @TMftbl Good to see you have an open mind about the discussion and have definitely not already made your mind up after 4 games plus some irrelevant friendlies. Best of luck 👍

[JohnK @Johnk9632]

@yf_FzZ @Leewoolward @TMftbl Havertz, like Viera, will take a half a season to season to properly bed in but even so he gives us things we dont have without him. Might even be quicker as Arteta said he didnt trust or use players enough last season, makes things more difficult to rotate and change to bed in

[JohnK @Johnk9632]

@yf_FzZ @Leewoolward @TMftbl His off the ball work is extremely good. Admittedly, his body language doesnt help him as a looks lazy but does a lot in terms of pressing and cutting off passing lanes. Offers an outlet we dont have otherwise so play over a press. Also more technical ability than willock.
