if a bookies allows you to do this they will no doubt tell you that you are placing a new bet and new rate comes into effect ...so you'd get 2/1+new bet odds .... so best of luck with your original bet.

simple thing to do is place the other bet as a new bet - assuming she will win - both bets come in ...woo hoo !

(if she doesn't ...you loose both bets)

it might be a good idea to "green up", i.e bet against her winning now at lower odds or sell the docket to someone else so that they get 5/2 (E128 selling price) and you guarantee yourself a profit.
