He was a promising horse at one time but like many also probably a tad over rated due to the silks it is in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obvious Yanworth would get turned over and not the horse it once was. Good to see Rebecca Curtis amongst the winners again at the meeting too. I remember chatting to her a few years ago at Ludlow (I would ) about some of her horses as she had some real shite horses in her yard since getting involved with that Costello bloke. Hopefully she is on the up again. Edited February 18, 2019 by AvfcRigo82 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rugeley Villa Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 I thought Shades Of Midnight was great value at the weekend, and he’s been impressive when I’ve seen him. I’m off it until The Cheltenham Festival. The day after Cheltenham finishes, I’m at the midlands national with the lads, so need to cut back a bit.

choffer Posted March 11, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted March 11, 2019 I think VT did me proud last year with some top tips for my trip to the festival. Any suggestions for this year? I'm there Wednesday and know no more about racing than I did last year so I'm looking for the VT experts to help me out. As with last year - any tips that come in will have 25% of any winnings donated to charity. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can't often go wrong with taking an interest in @Brumerican's Cheltenham selections. I'll post mine the night before each day but given that I've had fewer winners than Bryan Cooper, I'd be wary of them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure it was your tips that turned my £50 into £280 last year, Snowy. A repeat performance would be much appreciated. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it was mostly downhill from the Wed onwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
choffer Posted March 11, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted March 11, 2019 (edited) Forget the name of the horse but a colleague and I both had a tenner each on a young colt at 250/1 (or some such ridiculously lengthy odds) at the festival last year. He was winning all the way up to the last - much of it by a comfortable distance. We genuinely thought we were on to a bumper pay out. I believe the horse in question crossed the finish line last Tuesday. Edited March 11, 2019 by choffer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me i’ll be on Al Dancer or Elieux De Nutz. Both have Cheltenham experience, both in good form and won’t mind the ground. Be interesting to see how Angels Breath and Klassical Dream do. Kalashnikov is a great E/W shout . The trip is a touch on the short side but he will be there or thereabouts, and will like the ground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
