Cheltenham 2017

Glad I've not had much money to put on this year, it's more been a bit of fun. I've been been awful at selections.

Typically I usually have a great Tuesday and the rest of the festival ticks over. Hopefully I'm doing it in reverse this year and Gold cup day will the profitable day.

Well I added an extra horse and got 4 wins and a place, but the odds weren't amazing. 

It's been a strange old week and I have had  nowhere near the success I had the last 3 festivals,  but I have won enough to upgrade my laptop , MOT the car , Pay the tax in one go  and I have left £48 in for tomorrow for another super heinz at 20 p  a line this time . I will use the £50 free bet I have on Sizing John . As for the super heinz , I'll just be betting with the heart as I seem to do just as well when I don't read too much into the stats , as when I do . It will be just a quick glance and then pick the highest priced horse that I think has even the slightest chance .

1.30 Landofhopeandglory @ 14/1  ( Wasn't one of Godolphins best IIRC . I remember Ryan Moore didn't do much with it , but it looks much better jumping)

2.10 Diego Du Charmil @16/1  ( Won big for me last year , it's 6 places and a great price . What's not to love ?)

2.50 Constantine Bay @ 14/1 (Because Cooper is too short a price and I like de Boinville . Horse has a fighting chance too)

3.30 Sizing John @ 8/1 (Because he's 8's and he's gooooooood)

4.10 Grand Jesture @33/1 (I remember him placing 2 years ago here for me, so why not at that price)

4.50 Rather Be @ 14/1 (Just plumped for something in the middle of the betting )

5.30 The Game Changer @ 12 /1  ( My last horse of the week has to be Bryan Cooper's)

It will be my first viewing of Charli Parcs tomorrow . I'm intrigued by the hype . I also Imagine Bapaume will be backed heavily in the morning after the Mullins resurgence. The ground may be too dry for Cooper and Dinaria Des Obeaux but I might have a fiver on him just in case.  The Worlds End has a great chance in the 2.50 and hopefully he beats Ant n Dec's horse !  Ask the  Weatherman in the 4.10 was a prodigy at point to point, so it will be fun to see how he does against On the Fringe . Eastlake is attractive at 28/1 in the last race if Aiden Coleman can get the bugger to co-operate.

Grosvenor Casino have been doing double odds on first race of every day. If you're gonna stick some money on this you'll get 28/1 and winnings paid as cash. :thumb:

He's going in a super heinz at 10p a line . I doubt the Grosvenor will be rolling out the red carpet for me ! :D

Might be worth a cheeky fiver on the side though :D

Well done. :thumb:

I chucked in Saphir at 50s e/w 1st 4 and it ends up 5th which is rather the story of my week.
