Cheltenham 2012

Good luck everyone. Weather looks very promising for tomorrow as we walked home 15 mins ago, cold clear skies and a touch of fog.

Right lads, I’m off to the Cotswolds

Best of luck one and all

Hon the Shadow Catch and Toner on Friday

:ireland:

read my preview, reasons for backing him are there for all to see. you dont fancy him fair enough, but maybe back that opinion up instead of making comments like those above.

good luck laz.

Doubled Hurricane Fly and Sprinter Sacre as a cover bet.

As expected Hurricane Fly and Sprinter have been pushed to Evens by a number of firms. Even money the Fly one of the bets of all time. Zarkandar should be good enough to chase him home and represents a bit at value @ 3/1 in the betting w/o market. Not touching SS.
Todays winners

Steps to Freedom
Al Ferof
The Package
Hurricane Fly
Scotsirish
Quevega (Alasi Place)
Bless the Wings

Stick with Willie Mullins this week and you won’t go far wrong. Hurricane Fly, Quevega and Sizing Europe is a bombptoof treble imho. Good luck all.

You too bruv :ireland:

What time do bookies open today? I’m going old school and getting dockets so I can enjoy the collecting properly.

Right I have decided the following so far, not too fancy or original:

Bet of the day

Quevaga / HF double

I also have a quevaga / SS / HF treble from last week.

Also

  • Steps to Freedom

  • Going to give the arkle a miss. Happy enough if the treble comes up and I’m not convinced Al Ferof is good enough and I have always had reservations about Cue Card.

  • Taking a chance on Tullamore Dew

Don’t think I’ll have any other bets unless I get swayed during the day.

(Will obviously be doing a few outrageous e/w accums too :popcorn: )

Who’s working today? How are ye going to watch it? I’ve to make do watching it through an app on the phone. I’ll be taking regular toilet breaks all day.

I’m working.

I’ll be watching it online, the joys of being the IT guy stuck away out of sight in an office. (think IT crowd).

One of the perks of my place is that the bosses are big into the racing, so anytime theres any decent racing on we throw it on the tv.

Only time of year I bet, and on the good advice of others. What would be a decent lucky15 lads? I see Mac has one up with very big priced horses…

Paddys are also enhancing all Ruby’s rides so if Sprinter Sacre gets turned over they could push the Fly out to 5/4 and you could potentially get 6/4 with the Ruby enhanced price. Dare to dream.

BBC Radio 5 live extra will be streaming live commentary online, presume there will be a few links floating around as well
