Cheltenham Festival.
83 Answers
The festival starts tomorrow. Always a great week of National Hunt Racing. I have been looking at the runners and have narrowed the field. Well for me anyhow. I have listed below some of my 'fancies'.
Tuesday Wed Thurs
1.30 Min* Yanworth* Lami Serge
2.10 Douvan*&Vaniteux No More Heroes & Shaneshill Taglietelle
2.50 Ballykan Rock The Kasbah Vautor*&Dynaste
3.30 Annie Power* Un De Sceux* Cole Harden
4.10 Vroum Vroum Mag* Balthazar King La Vaticane
4.50 Local Show Frodon Limini*&Smart Talk
5.30 On Tour Bacardys Dr Harper&Ballykan
I will do place pots every day based on these selections but will be having a close look at a nice acca or a bet that includes 4folds upwards on the *selections. Bear in mind that Vautor holds an entry for Fridays Gold Cup and may not run Thurs at 2.50. I think tomorrow the bookies could be slated with 4 of those selections, albeit at small odds. On Friday I like Ivanovich Gorbatov but will wait for now. Plus Dr Harper that I have picked for Thurs 5.30 originally held 6 entries over the 4 days.

Morning all, lovely day for it. Todays hopes are listed, will do 4 place pots, and any punt laid will not have the short priced Limini or Vautor in it. My short prices acca bombed out yesterday, but hey, for a couple of quid I had fun. A cup of coffee costs more.
1.30 Lami Serge
2.10 Taglietelle
2.50 Vautor & Dynaste
3.30 Cole Harden
4.10 La Vaticane
4.50 Limini & Smart Talk
5.30 Dr Harper & Silvergrove
Just a nod. Dr Harper had 6 entries at the meeting and has been withdrawn from 5 of the races. I have been watching him for some time.

Bobs Worth did me a favour today, 3rd @ 50/1, me and a mate had £5 e/w on Amigo in the last @ 40/1 which finished 5th, luckily Bet365 payed 1st 5 home.
Need Zubayr and Cue Card tomorrow for £360 from some ante post accas
Apparently Diego Du Charmil who won for Paul Nicholls on Wednesday trounced Zubayr on the gallops at home so looking forward to seeing that in the Triumph Hurdle

Probably my worst festival for about 20 years but we gamblers are a hardy sort. Besides which, if i didn't have a bet, i could be walking around lucky without even knowing it:-) A not so strict interpretation of the main stats (i don't have the time to nit-pick through the minor stats) has produced the following selections;
1.30; Sceau Royal @ 9/1*
2.10; Modus @16/1** (Each way Draco @ 50/1)
2.50; Shantou Village @ 7/2*
3.30; Don Poli @ 9/2* (Rev f/c with Smad Place)
4.10; Aupcharlie @ 10/1**
4.50; Westend Star @ 18/1**
5.30; Rock The World @ 10/1**
The first 6 are in the placepot, those denoted * are in a patent/e.w. treble and those denoted ** are singles or e.w. and also in a 20p lucky 15, 50p e.w. acca (which, if would net me over £30K if successful!!).
For the 4th and final time, bst of luck, all:-)
