    Its most certainly not a pisstake. I rarely post tips on here anymore so that would explain why I barely ever tip a winner. 3 or 4 times since the breeders cup I think ive posted tips here and I only posted those times because I was asked to.

    fancied one strongly few weeks ago and posted it, Tatlisu 16/1, got beat but won next time out a few days later at a good price

    Yep, Angie (Frau Merkel to you) tipped me off over a couple of Hefeweizen in Spandau.

    "Listen Oddy" she said "that bitch Clinton has got nowt to come. Donald will **** her (not literally and excuse my French) come election time. As for Brexit, well, you only need look at how many millions of illegal immigrants I've let in through the back door, slam dunk for big Nige Farage."

    She can't half put the beer away though, I was fecked the next morning but she was on a plane to Israel at 6 AM. What a woman.

    Cracking info from the Wylie chap on that new ITV morning show today.
    Ed Chamberlain "what's the festival target for Yorkhill Gra ol lad?"
    Wylie "well he's entered in the Arkle and the JLT.....and the RSA.......and the Champion Hurdle"
    Ed Chamberlian should have then responded "jeez Gra you've spent too f***ing long in that Closutton cult haven't you. F**k right off and we'll find somebody else to interview who might say something insightful you c***" But sadly he didn't.

    Blow By Blow is only going to be spotted in a bumper this season and will not be popping a hurdle until the next Winter if Eddie O'Leary is to be kept to his word. Got time on his side anyway. No Cheltenham for him this time around.

    Only last night I was watching last years festival and I pick out Bristol de Mai,for me he needs it soft but he stays. The other one was blacklion at 50s . He hasn't done much this year and he'll like better ground, but nige will have them ready.

    For winning a 6-runner grade 3 novice chase at 1/4? I would seriously hope not (although I guess the way the layers are at the moment anything possible <laugh>)

    What gets near him though Oddy? Nichols great white hope beat today by Northern handicapper. It's a seriously shallow field that JLT and the way he won the Neptune tells you he's a horse excels round there on good ground. Could run 10lb below form and still piss up imo.

    I'd like to see him jump straight for a start. He's a pish price at the moment and odds-on would be a joke even if he wins half the track tomorrow. Don't write off the Northern horse, definitely not a handicapper and Altior v Min in the Arkle will scare plenty away to go for the JLT.

    Looks one of the worst Cheltenhams for years, Altior vs Min in the Arkle and the Gold Cup look about the only things worth turning up for.

    Not great when you consider that almost the whole season is nothing more than preparation for this meeting.
