    My first Ante-Post bet struck for this years Cheltenham festival was on Cue Card 2 minutes after he fell in last years race.£25 e/w at 10/1,I have backed him several times since at 20/1 down and he stands to win me £2500 for about £200 worth of bets.I have lost £150 on Black Hercules for the Gold cup, Thistlecracks cost me another £100 but I stand to win £1800 from Bristol de Mai at 36’s down and I’ve also had a fiver on both More of that at 120’s and Blaklion at 150’s.My idea of the result is Cue Card to win and Bristol de mai to place that would return about £3000.The Gold cup is my biggest betting race of the festival as far as outlay is concerned
    Total £500

    My second bet for this years festival was on Ballyandy for the ‘Supreme’ £20 at 22’s on the machine but I also had £20 on Battleford at 25’s and £20 onBacardys such was the impression last years ‘Bumper’ had on me.I also have £100 worth of bets on Capitaine at 25’s.
    Total £160

    Total £100

    In the ‘Ultima’ I have £50 e/w on Holywell at 20/1 and £20 e/w at 16/1.I have £20 on Another hero at 25’s for this too.

    Gingers taking the piddle here Gord
    What’s the difference between a non runner and all those savers that lose they all return the same

    I had Thistlecrack £5 at 10/1 built up a kitty using bookies money with £30 at 9/2 and had £3 at 80/1 on the King George/Gold Cup double and a load of mickey mouse accumulator run ups which were running onto him

    day of the race if he was going off at about evens I’d have to stake a sh!t load of money to get the same sort of return and would lose a shed load of weight with bazooka bum time

    as it is the money I lost is all accounted for as I work in a job to invest money in betting instead of gambling money like ginger does

    You cant out fox a Fox Nath.Ginge pulls this old chestnut out every year.For the past 7-8 yrs I have made a 4 figure profit from Cheltenham every year and this one will be no different pal.I have definitely increased my bets though this year as I quite fancy a Nissan GTR in Matt black with ‘TAPK 1’ Number plates.

    Any chance of including all the ante-post bets you’ve put up on TRF – the ones you’ve already lost too?

    Not asking for any bet that you have not mentioned on TRF.
    Not asking for how much money is on ANY bet.
    Please don’t make out I have.

    I just think you should include all the ante-post horses you’ve put up on TRF (including the ones who are already lost). Is that too much to ask? :unsure:

    Fair play to you for laying it all out. Everyone I know makes money at Cheltenham every year but very few show their hand before hand. I suppose nobody likes to talk about the losers. Min has hurt me in my AntePost multiples. I was over exposed with him and I have learned from that. Between Min pulling out, Lets Dance not going to Neptune, Cause Of Causes missing The Ultima and Bellshill turning out to be **** I’d say 40% of my ante post multis are dead. 20% of my budget goes on ante post multis so 8% of my stake budget is dead. The only single bets I’ve lost so far in the ante post are Min in the Arkle and Cause of Causes in The Ultima. I’m alive in every other race and I’ve yet to bet on the Martin Pipe, Fred Winter, Coral Cup, 4 miler and Cross Country.

    Have followed your lead with Another Hero, Bouvreuil and Peace & Co.

    If you are 1/5 to make a profit does that mean you are 3/1 or 7/2 to lose then??
    I could be interested at those prices.

    Humility is a wonderful thing.

    Good luck Gord..you’ve laid out your table, taken a few sneaky nibbles here and there and are now getting ready for the feast of a lifetime washed down with several bottles of Moet no doubt ;-) ..Good luck with your Army for next week will be cheering them home for you, especially Bristol De Mai could he really come back and win the Gold Cup I REALLY hope so, but if not I would love Cue Card to take it :heart: Jac

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

    I sometimes think me and you should go out on a date Jac…. :rose: We could spend half the night talkin horses over a bottle or 2 of Dom Perignon..(I only serve that to special ladies) and the other half of it talkin bout my legendary coups.. B-) Unless you could think of somethin more demandin like! x
    If the rain comes friday Morning Jac,I fully expect both Cue Card and Bristol de Mai to be placed.Your Grey is still the most over-priced horse in the race,he’s an e/w steal at 20/1,should be 10/1 on form if ‘Native Rivers’ fav…Good luck yourself and Enjoy. :heart: :heart:
