    I scored a big fat zero today, despite having a lot of fancied horses (four of the eight horses I put up were favourites!!).

    Is that a Cheltenham Competition First?

    Am I barred?

    Pretty tough day today in general although a few have managed to make a serious move
    up the leaderboard. I’ve got today’s all tallied, got a few things to do and will get
    them added to previous rounds and post up in a bit.

    Knew as soon as GDC went down at the last in the first race and Third Wind won but was my reserve in the 2nd race that this day was going nowhere fast. :scratch:

    Well done to all backers of Third Wind and anyone who’s been following Venetia Williams horses (40/1 winner in the last) :good:

    Looking at tomorrow’s card it’s another tricky day and more big priced winners expected..good luck and thanks Graham for the updates..Jac :good:

    Things turn out best for those who make the best of how things turn out...

    Disgusted with myself for replacing Chambard with Ain’t That A Shame at the last minute. Rejected playing the “two horse” option as I hate amateur races. The fact that I used this to include Winter Fog (along with Born Patriot, and fingers crossed for him) in the Pertemps is no consolation, especially as I’ve followed Third Wind since seeing him win at Plumpton but abandoned him today. Still, onwards & upwards. Whatever I pick tomorrow, I’ll be actually backing the reserves!

    A disaster of a day – two of my selections fell, two finished the second and the rest are still running. Gutted for GDC as I think he would have won – just glad he’s okay.

    Great picks again Aaronizneez! Well done

    Off to find some crazy selections for the last day.

    Thanks for keeping all the numbers straight for us Graham!
