Another tenner down the drain.

 

Missed the race too as I thought it started at 3.05 :confused:

 

 

I really am retarded sometimes.

 

 

Bugger I meant to put my money on E/W for the next one, My way de solzen, however stuck it on the nose.

 

See what I mean about being retarded.

Got a good run for our money out of such an outsider

 

Could see it was struggling up the hill, so thought it would be a bit behind when they looked back from winner. So frustrating to see it beaten on the line

 

I was just listening to the commentary on coral so didnt realize it got caught til he announced the results.

 

Good shout tho!

Next up got

 

Kasbah @ 9's to win ?5

Kazal ?5 each way @ 12's

 

Just realised Eggo and my self have backed the same in the last two...

 

Did you have Turko to win Eggo? I took it each way.... even tho the odds were gash.

 

Decided to do 1 e/w and one to win each race.

I wouldnt, the rains falling at Cheltenham apparently and theres every chance the going could change from good/soft to soft or heavy, depending on how much there is, and that will be right up Denmans street.

 

Really looking forward to the Gold Cup tomorrow, should be a belter!

 

Looking forward to the Foxhunters too ;)

Say What Again

My 2nd (3rd) day losses on Cheltenham were recouped tonight with a Bremen/Lisbon double and were topped up by a pub quiz win.

 

I'm tempted by Denman tomorrow, or should I say, I have a niggling feeling Kauto Star won't win. Exotic Dancer?

 

For all of you undecided punters, that more than likely means Kauto Star by 20 lengths

 

:sad:

Im going easy today, lost on too many races.

 

Have a couple of bets carried over from the cancelled meeting yesterday.

 

Mainly

 

Trafford Lad 1.05 and Song of Songs in the 1.40

 

My other bets will be in the Gold Cup and the Foxhunters.

 

Backing Denham, think the weather has swung this back in his favour, and Natiain in the Foxhunters.

 

This was the tip that my bro in law gave me, so am lumping a wedge on both I think.

 

Happy punting folks.

Sorry Rossi, just noticed this as I git caught up on FM08 last night.

 

Not had much chance to look properly at todays cards yet and gonna be in meetings most of the day, bit gutted at that. I do fancy Denman tho, and also Song of Songs looks a decent tip from Andy.

 

Happy punting bud, all the best.

Seems like the weather is clearing down there, as it looks bone dry, so Kauto Star has the advantage, but hey ho, have stuck it on Denham now, so no going back.

My tip of the day (after listening to talksport ;)) is Physco.

 

Also i think im going to avoid Kauto today, Denman is looking favourable!!!

McCoy will give Aigle a good run mate, and its one of the more fancied one's in that race, however Cheltenham's full of class, so there's just no telling.

 

Its also got as good a chance as any though in that field.

 

I like the look of Chomba Womba in the 12.30 today as well.

JM's the boy for the info on horses, as he bets on pretty much anything that is called gambling.

He went on to extend his debt to ?120. Hes now paying the deposit on my holiday. Gota love it !

Haha, you were in the pub from 11am right?

 

Next year is a must get off week for me for the Festival. Even considering taking a wee trip down perhaps.

 

I'd spend far too much money though
