Cheltenham Bets 2018

NRNB BOG LUKCY 15

BROWNS ADVISORY PLATE- BOUVREIUL 16/1
FRED WINTER- SAO 20/1
ALBERT BARTLETT- NEXT DESTINATION 5/1
GOLD CUP- CONEY ISLAND 10/1

[Autumnal]

It’s a good thing for me that I don’t go in too heavy Ante-Post, as my Gold Cup selections were poor. My enthusiasm for a Yorkhill will probably never be justified, and I don’t see Acapella Bourgeois lining up in The Gold Cup either.

That was the only race I had bet in so far, but I will try Road To Respect at 12-1 to beat the fav, but I think the fav wins, a very impressive animal.

Only other bets just now

RSA – Monalee 5-1
Ryanair – Coney Island 16-1
Fox hunter – Burning Ambition 8-1

LUCKY 15 EW NRNB

Mare hurdle* Kayf Grace 8/1 W/O Apples jade
Browns AD* BOUVRIUEL 16/1
Fred winter* SAO 20/1
X country- Tiger roll 10/1

Good luck all

[atthepost]

Going to take a punt on KAYF GRACE 8/1 EW W/O apples jade for the mares. I can’t see this mare being out the first 4 home.

Let’s dance hasn’t been the same horse this year.

VVM has had set back and potentially will retire, maybe even in foal.

Augusta Kate hates cheltenham

Hoping for a big run in the Betfair hurdle today

[DBRDBR]

Call me Lord runs saturday at Wincanton in the Kingwell hurdle. I think he can improve a lot again. He is also in the Champion Hurdle.

Backed him 25/1 EW without Buveur d’Air (NRNB).

[muggins_here]

The day my any race at the festival horse(PP) goes against my gold cup horse(Our Duke) at the wrong trip at gowran park. I don’t know what to think.

[Middle_Of_March]

Sticking this weeks free fiver from skybet on this yankee in the handicaps:
Le Breuill – Coral Cup
Theinval – Grand Annual
Tully East – Brown Plate
Mall Dini – Kim Muir

The £4.95 yankee pays £6500. Think bets like that are the best way to use the free bets.

Waiting til the end of the week before I place it in case MD or LB go to their other possible race.

[stevecaution]

I decided not to touch any handicaps this season. It’s just never been a good source of winners in the past for me.

This year’s ante-posts are:-

Champion Hurdle Buveur D’air 4/1
Gold Cup Might Bite 8/1 and 6/1 (Pre and post King George)
Arkle Chase Brain Power 16/1 and Saint Calvados 5/1 (NRNB)
Ryanair Chase Waiting Patiently 8/1
RSA Chase Black Corton 7/1 (NRNB)
Triumph Hurdle We Have A Dream 25/1 (All in) and 10/1 (NRNB)
JLT Terrefort 25/1
Stayers Hurdle Penhill 10/1 (NRNB)

I am not decided about the Bumper yet.

Thanks for the good crack. Time for me to move on. Be lucky.

[Vautour]

I didn’t do much ante post this year.

Bets still alive;
Bachasson – Gold Cup 140/1
Killultagh Vic – Gold Cup 150/1
Sharjah – Supreme 25/1 e/w
Presenting Percy – RSA 14/1

Outside bet
Benie Des Dieux – Ryan Air 40/1

Dead Bets
Blaklion – Gold Cup 150/1
Presenting Percy – National Hunt Chase 25/1
Bamako Moriviere – JLT 30/1
Getabird – Albert Bartlett 60/1

[Middle_Of_March]

I got lucky with BDD as I did her for any race at 14s even though I imagined her in the Ryanair.

Feel your pain with Bamako Moriviere. Had 20/1 any race on him before his injury. Blaklion I had at 40s NRNB.

Combine them three with PP and Getabird for the wrong races, you can consider yourself massively unlucky I think.

[Nausered]

The older I get… I look forwards to it, more & more every year I think.

E/W doubles.

Yanworth Stayers 6-1 & De Plotting Shed 13-2 Close Bros NRNB
Yanworth Stayers 11-2 & Native River GC 11-2 NRNB
Native River GC 13-2 & Warriors Tale 60-1 National
Duc De Genievres 8-1 Albert Bartlett & Dingo Dollar 20-1 Ultima NRNB
Duc De Genievres 14-1 Coral Cup & Forza Milan 14-1 Pertemps NRNB
Dingo Dollar 25-1 Ultima & De Plotting Shed 13-2 Close Bros NRNB
Dingo Dollar 25-1 Ultima & Warriors Tale 60-1 National.

One E/W treble.

Yanworth Stayers 6-1 & De Plotting Shed 13-2 Close Bros & Dingo Dollar 25-1 Ultima NRNB

E\W & win singles.

Native River 8-1, plus 13-2 NRNB.
Dingo Dollar 25-1 Ultima NRNB.
Duc De Genievres 16-1 County, 14-1 Coral, 8-1 Albert Bartlett all NRNB.
Yanworth 13-2 Stayers NRNB
De Plotting Shed 13-2 & 6-1 Close Bros NRNB.
Forza Milan 14-1 Pertemps NRNB.

Many a previous festivals, I have not placed a single bet until the Monday night. Very different this year. That is my lot now until the Monday night. I could really do with Dingo Dollar winning the Ultima… I’ve really steamed into him with the singles.

Can’t wait!
