Highs; GDC winning the Gold Cup again, a magnificent achievement after a season competing in Grade 1s. Hope he goes to Punchestown, and hope he isn’t protected too much next year in search of the triple. For NH racing to prosper we need to see the good horses more often. Even Arkle got beaten sometimes.
Lows; the small fields in the novice chases and hurdles.March 17, 2024 at 23:03 #1687211Highs and lows have already been mentioned, so no need for me to repeat the obvious. But, I’d like to make one addition:
Samcro was a very sad sight…. Seeing a dual Festival winner not having the legs to come down the hill and being pulled up four out, really screams retirement to me. Well, he might win another Irish PTP or maybe two, but his career under Rules should be over and what else does he owe Gigginstown?
It’s time for the O’Learys to show what they owe him…..

Ballyburn / Sine Nomine – both representing the diversity of Cheltenham exactly as I believe it should do.
Low
Being charged a ridiculous amount to queue up for a ridiculously long time to park in a quagmire.

Same here. I withdrew the amount I deposited on Saturday and I withdrew the profit I made yesterday. All went through without a hitch. Maybe I got lucky because there is a lot of negative commentary about them online.
At least I made two of the free bets pay (Slade Steel and Gaelic Warrior). I also got 6/4 against Galopin Des Champs in the Gold Cup.
My only complaint is the free bet I should have received after backing a loser in the Triumph Hurdle never materialised.
The site is very poorly designed and geared more towards the casino games it clearly wants you to play.
Even though my experience was OK, I will be closing the account later.
