    1:30 Vautour

    2:40 Don Cossack
    3:20 Whisper
    4:00 Monetaire
    4:40 Buddy Balero

    A lot of favourites but I can't see much past them

    I've only picked one of these so expecting a winless Thursday.
    And I only picked that because of the trainers strike rate in the race.
    My biggest bet of the day is in the charity race and you will be proud of me - went for the fav. LOL

    Good luck Smiffy

    I may be wrong but Cheltenham always seems to have one day of the 4 where the favorites clean up and then 3 days of surprises and outsider's, Tuesday the favourites romped home and the bookies took a pounding, I get the feeling tomorrow will be a day for the horses tipped as having a chance but others favoured for this reason I am dreading today's schedule, I will be drawn to the favorite but choose the second string and loose my arse as I am probably very wrong in that statement as I am sure someone will state with stats at some stage today

    I wish sam T D didn't win yesterday as I really like his picks today but now think he has had his day at Cheltenham this week and reckon it's the turn of someone else

    Poxy indecisive Thursday for me now and just like taking a pen never change your mind but I will

    If it's a bad Festival for the bookies it generally is also for me. And this one has been a stinker.
    Nonetheless, if there's a staying handicap I have to have some each way interest
    So, on a salvage mission (therefore gone for the highest prices for 4 places with BetVic, rather than the 5 offered by Bet365), in the Kim Muir at 4.40:

    Heaney 20/1
    Grand Vision 16/1
    Bless The Wings 33/1
  • 1:30 - Valseur Lido
    2:05 - The Tourard Man
    2:40 - Johns Spirit
    3:20 - Un Temps Pour Tout
    4:00 - Burn and Turn

    What a day yesterday ... easily my best ever Cheltenham . I had windsor park , don poli and dodging bullets . Any currency each way and to top it all off The Saint James coming 3rd meant we scooped the place pot too . The champagne bar took a hit after ....

    Busy there but getting served was nt too bad at all . I wish i was back there today !

My fortunes changed.i had one third .can't remember who .but had moon racer in the last .imagine the seen having not having a winner for 2 days .I was in the Guinness village having a pint of the finest black stuff.thinking omg done my money. Then all of a sudden out no where Tom Scudamore more pulls out some magic then romps home.some mad English man jumping around like he won the lottery ( only £65 ) so went and brought my daughter a tweed dress .to make it even better a very BIG security breach. Am in the winner enclosure with .Peter Scudamore. Tom Scudamore and David pipe. Time for a group photo. Funny as fxxk as my mates can't believe we're I am. Also met Howard Webb. Matt le tissue. John mccorric. A proud charlton fan walking around with his charlton hat on .drunken me had to show him my cafc tattoo. Went out in town for Indian then bed .just woke up now can't be bothered to go today. Off there tomorrow

    Saw this posted elsewhere. Obivously make of it what you will as with any "tip":

    Lads just to let you know but there's a rash going around Hendersons yard and Sprinter was suffering with it today on his legs; was in pain and has been standing in his box the last two days. I would strongly suggest going easy on the rest of Hendersons horses for the next two days
