25s gone

The Triumph could really boost its form from when it was last here plus it was 2nd in a Grade 1 in France over further then 2 miles and will go off with 10st 8lb on its back if the jock makes the wieght.

Been a good week miles better then last year 7 winners 5 second placed with few at good priced E/Ws

Gold Cup Day selections

JCB Triumph Hurdle:

Sam Winner 10/1 E/W

Local Hero 33/1 E/W

County Hurdle:

Soldatino 16/1 E/W

Albert Bartlett:

Bobs Worth 10/1 E/W

Champion Court 14/1 and 10/1 E/W

Gold Cup:

Long Run 20/1 E/W

Martin Pipe Con Hurdle:

Indian Daudaie 25/1 E/W

Re: Cheltenham Festival 2011... : Thu Mar 17, 2011 7:24 pm  

Done two more in the County, Blackstairmountain 14/1 E/W Alaivan 8/1 E/W

Both look like they could well in with Alaivan's form boosted yesterday and starting to look a decent horse over hurdles having been rated 112 on the flat.

Barizan 33/1 E/W Martin Pipe

Just because Williams has had said its come to life again like last year, if it goes off and gets a soft lead it would be hard to pull back.

Strong words for Kempes 11/1 and Dirar 13/2 backing both.

Re: Cheltenham Festival 2011... : Thu Mar 17, 2011 11:13 pm  

Just done a triple. Will sort out other bets tomorrow.

Grandouet, Bob's Worth, Imperial Commander

Re: Cheltenham Festival 2011... : Thu Mar 17, 2011 11:14 pm  

Lot to like about Zarkanders win the other day.


The Gold Cup is a bit like the Champion Hurdle was for me. I have it whittled down to a couple, and gonna do the same as I did on Tuesday and go with my gut feeling after reading the RP in the morning. No sentimental bets because I'm well up for the week either, a la Master Minded the other day.

Re: Cheltenham Festival 2011... : Thu Mar 17, 2011 11:36 pm  

Am done now for the week going to have a break after tomorrow before decent flat starts and Aintree/Punchs/Galway.

Over a bag of sand up on the last 3 days even with some very close ones like Caroles Legacy and Rock On Ruby going down on the line plus favs Cue Card and Master Minded could of been some major major funds, still got some nice bets for tomorrow at good prices E/W so hopefully some more coming in.

Them two Irish fancies will get very well backed weather depending am told.
