    Our Roxanne 7/2 - Thurles 2. 05
    Terence O'Brien's mare has turned a corner since the backend of last Summer and has had two nice victories over hurdles recently to her name. It's her latest run that sticks out the best though, where she ran 2nd to a very good horse in Black Tears, who has since split Elfile and Laurina over 20 furlongs recently.

    Emily Moon is 5/4 favourite for this race but Our Roxanne has soundly been in front of her on the pairs two most recent hurdles outings, Edene D'arc is a bit of a mixed bag who has two incomplete attempts in chases so far and looked well beat when unseating lto. Misty Milly looks the other only real possible threat, she has flat form on bottomless ground but looked to me in need of a bit further on her most recent chase outings, albeit running creditably.

    If the jumping is adequate, I expect Our Roxanne will prove hard to beat in conditions she clearly likes and in such good heart presently.

    Best of luck <ok>

    Quck question for those on the daily thread today....other than the 'Cheltenham ante post' thread and 'Cheltenham is it on or off' thread do we actually have a thread for any race at the festival? Or is it the case no one has commented for months so it's disappeared in to the back catalogue?

    If there is no thread for any race at Cheltenham then I guess it will just be a daily thread for each of the 4 days...that does seem a bit light for what is the pinnacle of jump racing.

    I‘ve created threads for every race the last 6 years Captain but just haven’t had the time this year - very busy both at work and outside work. But anyone else is free to create threads for specific races and I will sticky them in an index <ok>

    In these doom-laden days (is Steveo Fraser’s son?), even after the raspberries blown at my 2019 predictions competition, I have been thinking of running a 6 to follow comp on the flat to run from mid April to November Hcp day. But only if there’s the interest. So before you retreat to your self-isolation can any of you express interest?

    This was the Champion Hurdle thread I created last year attivo - but by no means intended as a template. I found in previous years that the big race threads attracted most posts - the mares novices hurdle and Kim Muir threads were pretty sparsely populated and felt like a bit of a waste of time.

    https://www.not606.com/threads/the-unibet-champion-hurdle-challenge-trophy-2019.371005/

    I hyperlinked the thread for each race from the all-encompassing Cheltenham thread (Ron has already created that and it is stickied this year)

    https://www.not606.com/threads/the-2019-cheltenham-festival-index-of-threads.370999/

    Maybe it is worth just creating the daily threads for each day much earlier so that people can discuss the main races on each day in advance?

    I could be well off the mark here, Cassivellanaus in the 3.00 could be in line for a big gamble!

    We could use the daily thread each day for members to post their thoughts on the big races in a "preview evening" style - no one has mentioned the annualy preview evening thread but again that is one I won't have time for. But it would be good to see members thoughts in detail on the big races each day.

    I am up for that for sure. It should be an early season of burst bubbles and I am working on a suicide Ante Post Lucky 15 at huge prices for the Classics at the moment as a bit of fun and because the races are way more open than the betting looks, apart from "Banker" Pinatubo in the 2000 Guineas.

    Anyone else here use B365? I'm having problems getting a multiple on - the betslip simply isn't giving me the option. Happened to anyone else?

    Edit: It seems that it wouldn't allow me to use an each way extra selection in an each way patent. That's never happened before.

    You can't use each way extra in multiples unless it's a race they're offering the extra place for example 4 instead of 3. If you use drop down to make it say 6 places then you can't use them in multiples

    Thanks. That's odd, because I thought that I had done in the past.

    Cheers for taking the time to respond on this.

    Afternoon,fellas!back from Hospital,and ready to Rock n Roll again!Here are my First Two fancies for today: wincanton,1 50: barring any mishaps,this looks a 3 horse Race.born in borris is Very much the unknown quantity here,and much respected,as well as hollymount Holly,but the value bet might be little river bay,who made eyecatching Late headway on his Debut unser rules,a few weeks ago.good chance,Theres more to come. Carlisle,2 15: Not a strong race by any means,but a tentative vote goes to echo Express.has shown Next to nothing so far this Season,but has dropped to a Good mark Now.so,if able to raise his game Today,shouldnt be too far Away.
