The Cheltenham NH Festival 2013

VC cut to 12s. Get the 14s if you can.

14s with William Hill

Had him at 14’s with Ladbrokes.

As an aside, I’ve been using a few different accounts this week and it’s not hard to see why Powers do so well in the online market. Most of the rival offerings range from ok-ish to shit.

Ladbrokes in particular is a buggy piece of shit.

Benneficient springs yet another surprise for Tony Martin and Bryan Cooper at 20/1. When is this horse going to get the respect it deserves?

:mad: :mad: :mad:

Have Benneficient in a mickey mouse .50c e/w double with Bertie’s Dream who I have a 40/1- A place would be lovely from that one.

My boy Cooper cost me a nice wedge there. Dynaste can have no complaints given every chance, just didn’t come up the hill. No real outstanding staying novices this season.
Gone with Ruby and Nicholls here, they seem bullish enough about this one

Bookies benefit today. One for Jonjo. Fav ran an absolute stinkero_O Thought Berties Dream was gonna do it there at one stage

Just ran out of steam to finish 5ht just outside places…

Ruby & Nichols / JP & AP are having stinkers!!

That is cuntish. Unlucky mate.

Russell stood down for the rest of the day after a fall. Cooper up on the Lieutenant now.

No harm the way Cooper is riding. Is Bog Warrior running?

Cruel. Tough break.

Other firms paying out to 5th… Powers the cunts only paying to 4th :frowning:

Yea Tony Martin confirmed he is going Mac. Geraghty stated aswell that he reckons Solwhit will be hard to beat if he can manage the distance of the World Hurdle in a C4 interview.

Good God but the C4 racing coverage is ridiculous. Clare Balding was on earlier on about how Lieutenant should be persuaded. Even asked Ted Walsh about it. Sure sign that you should hit the mute button!

Need First Lieutenant to save the day

Not convinced by 1st 2 in the market here. Riverside got me out of a massive hole when I was at the festival last year but he’s hard to support on this years evidence. A sweet round of jumping will see Menorah cruise home:cool:

I’m beginning to get a bad feeling that Mac got a big dose of beginners luck yesterday and that those of us following him today are going to get fucking hosed.

Russell apparently suffering from a collapsed lung - out for tomorrow aswell. Feel very sorry for the bloke, will miss this and SDC tomorrow
