    Hello there and welcome to the CHELTENHAM FESTIVAL ANTE POST CHALLENGE featuring PRICE WISE
    I’ll just go through the rules.

    1 Anyone is welcome, just make your entries down below. But beaware that everyone is starts on a level playing field so the more races you pick from the better.

    2 Each race will have approximately a 2 weeks period for you to make your choice.

    3 In this period you can make 1 or 2 selections, they don’t have to be made together so long as they are made somewhere in this period. When the period closes I will announce it and any selections for the race made afterwards will be void.

    4 If you do have a second selection it must be a different choice to the first one.

    5 I will allow substitutes but you must make it clear, otherwise I will count it a second choice. If you have 2 selections already then make clear which one you’re substituting otherwise I will swap it for the first choice.

    6 All choices are proper Ante Post rules meaning they count whether they run or not, the only exception are if you Mark your entry Non Runner No Bet, or words meaning the same. If you do NRNB terms then it must be from a bookmaker offering them terms on Odds checker (because them prices are usually poorer than the others).

    7 If you put down the same choice as Pricewise (on same terms) before him, but his price is better than yours, I will adjust your price to meet his.

    8 Each Way bets are quarter the odds for first three, again if bookmakers do an extra place for that race I will allow it if shown on Odds checkers and it’s made clear and you use their price.

    9 If you do have 2 selections then you can mix or match whether they are win or EW.

    1 selection will be 4 points win or 2 points EW
    2 selections will be 2 points win or 1 point EW

    I will make the staking adjustments so you only need to put down win or EW on your choice.
    However if you don’t I will assume you mean win.
    If you forget on your initial post to mark your bet as win or EW you can put down these terms before the period for this race closes.

    Pricewise Time Table is

    (1 Gold Cup 14 January) and (2 Champion Hurdle 15 January)

    (3 Chaampion Chase 21 January) and (4 Arkle 22 January)

    (5 Stayers Hurdle 28 January), (6 Supreme 29 January) and (7 Ryanair 30 January)

    (8 Brown Advisory 4 February) and (9 Turners 5 February)

    (10 Albert Bartlett 11 February)

    (11 Triumph 19 February)

    You've got to accentuate the positive.
    Eliminate the negative.
    Latch on to the affirmative.
    Don't mess with mister in between.

    Thank you to all, your bets have been recorded and are all correct.

    Ginger I have that trouble too, before internet if I see half a familiar name I sometimes put the more famous name down.

    Anyway guys don’t forget your Champion Hurdle choice which has to be made before closure on January 25 (night).

    Also remember I will allow substitute’s for these races up to their closure just in case you change your minds.
