1/7 today, so going by my strike rate these are the ones to avoid tomorrow.......
13:30 - SOME TARGET
14:05 - SO YOUNG
14:40 - MIKAEL DHAGUENET
15:20 - MASTER MINDED
16:00 - CALL THE POLICE
16:40 - TENOR NIVERNAIS
17:15 - STAR NEUVILLE
three times one from place (2 x 4 when top 3 paid and 1 x 5 when top 4 paid)
and a couple of nowheres
Not exactly a day of profit but certainly fun!
Got well and truly cheltenham-ed early on but saved towards the end. Shame Medermit did not place as I had a single and accumulator that was broken by his 4th.
Made enough profit to buy a beer or two... that's all I want from Cheltenham - it's a bloody lottery so unless you're good (which on the horses I'm not particularly), all I want is a fun day, not to get cleaned out, and just maybe earn a beer out of it! Last year was my year so i'll have to be content now!
Excellent day down there yesterday , had 4 2nd's and one winner . Clivey_hero is the one to follow , 5 winners and the placepot yesterday ... Think he probably kipped on the track last night
Wakey wakey,
A few sore heads this morning no doubt. Well done boys and girls.
5 places e/w in the Coral Cup you've got to have a couple of longer shots:
Lightning Strike (33/1) & Trenchant (33/1) for me.........mind you I've not had a winner in this since Whats Up Boys in 2000 so BEWARE.
I've just woke up in a bale of hay clutching a photo of ruby to my chest, with fifty pound notes in every pocket and a champagne cork up my nose............could have been worse
Once I sober up, and after a full greasy breakfast , I'll mainly be doing. Arabella Boy, Sizing Europe, Whitby Jack and So Young , but fully expecting to give most of it back today , as can't have another day like yesterday .............or could I ?
RESULT - National Hunt Steeplechase Challenge Cup 4m (1330)
1. Chicago Grey (Derek O'Connor) 5-1 Fav
2. Beshabar (Tom David) 9-1
3. Be There In Five (Sam Waley-Cohen) 20-1
