BEST of the BETS

Nowhere. Apologies.

Sorry it’s late but

6.45 Wolves if taking to the longer trip then Ivory Charm looks very well treated to go in here or at least go close. 5/1 ew for me. Gets plenty from Barossa Red and there wasn’t much between them last time.

Cheers Hippo. Backed A Plus Tard on your say so and I’m waiting on OK Corral for doubles and trebles in from my acca. Fingers crossed.

Please do mate

Like many I’ve not looked elsewhere today but well done mate. Consistent as ever.

i agree with Millhouse. Walsh absolutely stinks. How can you have as many high profile fallers littered amongst the successes he has especially like today when the race is absolutely dead and buried.

He said something to Luke Harvey on arriving back into the jockeys room after the CH aswell. Everybody and their auntie would’ve said that his mount was going as well as anything in that race, if not best. Walsh said it wasn’t and he was never happy with it.

not half. Apples Jade :grimace: in reverse at halfway. Would’ve been interesting to see where Geraghty ended up at the business end

Good start AKD

Good luck mate. I’m on your two in the Supreme. I really like Al Dancer and I think he could win conclusively.

Incredibly tough to call Mugz. Buvuea D’air sets the standard but AJ is a stellar horse and the Mullins horse who’s name escapes me is unbeaten but plenty of outside chances including Sharjah without a doubt. Buveua D’air doesn’t win cosily enough for me to be convinced he’s a good thing in this again. A tough tough race to call.

P.S avoiding going mad on the above mentioned races. As mentioned previously there are too many high class horses for me to jump in.

Hi all, not been posting much recently as I’ve been taking a bit of a backseat although I have been looking in and the forum has been booming lately. Anyway, Cheltenham eve is upon us and as I mentioned on Hippos thread I am taking advantage of SkyBets offer in the SNH, the opening race of the festival tommorow.

1.30 Cheltenham a fascinatingly open encounter to kick start the week, where the major players have a few entries and cases can be made for plenty entrants. I’ve whittled it down to three, sort of. Firstly, I like Al Dancer and it will be my main selection, I think it’s credentials are second to none in this field and it’s form thus far absolutely justifys a solid position near the head of the market. Proven on the ground, course form, consistency, strong smooth traveller, all things that point to an outstanding chance in my eyes. I was interested in both Klassical Dream and Aramon for Willie Mullins, the latter who looks fairly priced but have backed away from them as I’m not convinced how they’ll handle a strong pace in these conditions so I’m placing my nothing too lose money elsewhere. Fekir D’Oudaries early runs have shown that he can be anything and holds many of the traits I mentioned for my main selection Al Dancer, a weight pull for an age allowance can further enhance its chance at the business end and I’ve stuck a fee bet I have with WH on him as a saver. Last but I suppose not least is an outsider in the field, Tokay Dokay for the Skeletons, who could be a bit steep in the market and I’m hoping I’ve stole a march. Fell lto in a grade 2 at Kempton early doors having gone 3/3 in his racing career and reopposes a couple of rivals from that day again tommorow. Had we seen a true run at Kempton and a justification of his results beforehand then I think he’d be around 20s or so and for that reason I’m having my other free bet from WH on him at 66/1 to see if that fall has affected him but for what’s it worth, I think Al Dancer May just be the class horse in the field here and could have that little bit more but Joseph O’Briens horse looks aimed at this hmmmmm.

All the best everyone. Will be having a go at the Arkle and the Champion Hurdle also and will post accordingly.

GL if you follow :blush:

Have a good day mate. I am taking advantage of the SkyBet offer in the first race. It’s not something I’d usually bet in as I don’t like fields of more than 12 runners. A personal thing. Will post my thoughts in my own thread shortly for anybody interested.

Brilliant again TL

Well done pal

Thanks for posting Hippo. I tend to watch rather than really put the effort into studying for Cheltenham. It’s hard to find particular angles I find as nearly absolutely everything is trying. I will be backing Champ and I know you’ll be looking forward to it running in the first tomorrow.

Will follow you with interest mate.

GL

Going great guns at the minute Joe

Joe :up:

Fancy Boom the Groom to run well in the 2.50 Joe

Thanks Hippo. You’ve been blowing Champs trumpet for some time. Enough for me to get a bit on when I can. Cheers

Keep them coming mate
