Cheltenham Festival 2016 Thread

Gubbed at Paddies which is a bit of a shitter, as it's usually the most profitable come Cheltenham.
Will have to hope Wills offerings can take up the slack.

just downloaded racing post cheltenham preview guide onto my Kindle, will be reading that and watching all the preview guides on youtube over the next week.

Mate is going to a preview night in Europa Hotel, Belfast tonight. Gordon Elliott and Davey Casey on the panel.

BTW Elliott horse Squouateur will win whatever race it runs in, its entered in Coral, County and Martin Pipa hcp hurdles, most likely to go for the Martin Pipe

Vautour not running in the Gold Cup. Going for the Ryanair chase instead.

Bit of a kick in the teeth for some punters, but I've got Don Polli for the Gold Cup so it doesn't affect me.

Might have to do another treble or something including Vautour in the Ryanair.

Altior! Always good to have a win the first race. Got half of my overall stake money for the festival back already.

 

[theShiznit]

Had Altior at Betfair which was nice (3 x £25 free bets added)

Anyone with a SJ account go through this link every day of the festival between 8am and 5pm and you get a free £5 added to your account within an hour.

Thrilled for connections of Annie Power. Imperious run.

Sad about the 3 horses that died yesterday, including Pont Alexandre

 

[spurs mental]

Just done this with the few quid left in my ladbrokes account.

Hope none of you have backed any of these lol.

Unfortunately I did, sorry for screwing up your bet

Having a good day again (first race has been best for real money on both days)

But currently in the top 50 of the Telegraph fantasy racing comp.

I was watching the 2:10 in the pub at lunchtime with a nice pint of Guinness, cheering on Blacklion to victory.

Celebrated, only to check what I'd won and then realised I'd done it in an E/W double. Lol. I think I've done too many bets, no idea what the fuck is going on .

Could still come through, but why oh why was I so greedy? Should have just done it on it's own. Hindsight is a wonderful thing I guess.
