Silviniano would have made it my best ever Cheltenham but still been an ok week! Not sure he's have won but he was going very well: I have stupidly had a £5 acc on next years championship races Champ hurdle - the new one 8/1 Champ chase - sprinter 2/5 World hurdle - Big Bucks 3/1 Gold Cup - silviniano 12/1
Just want to give a big congrats to Stick for The new one and Swanny for Cue Card. Have not been on here so will not tell you what i backed but suffice to say it wasn't my best festival.
Well that's it for another year! After a massivlely successful Tuesday, my Wednesday and Thursday were rubbish but got well back in front again in my three bets of the day: Our Conor, At Fisher's Cross and in the Gold Cup plumped for Bob's Worth (though also done Sir de Champs too!). Very happy with that. Our Conor looks the real threat to the Fly in next year's Champion doesn't he. That, for me was the performance of the festival, absolutely different class. Scarily good and I'd be very surprised if he's not involved in the business end of next years Champion Hurdle. Could become one of the greats. That's it for me, I've banked my Festival profits and am already missing the Festival! What a great, great four days that was. Thoroughly enjoyed it, some real stories were written. I won't be punting during the flat, though I may pop in and out before that to help you all during the remaining jumps festivals! Good luck all
like beeforsalmon i had a good first but wednesday/thursday were not so great.great day today with four winners even though they were all favs,a winner is a feckin winner!looks like the forum had a good day and thumbs up to wayward for some fantastic tipping.its going to be an anti climax now as this is my fav week of the year.hopefully we will have two good upcoming festivels at aintree/and punchy which i attend every year.im more a jumps man than a flat man so only a few weeks left.dublin gona be crazy tonight with paddies weekend so im off to try and pull meself a vunerable american tourist,happy drinking!
gotta say respect to mark the couch winstanley.tipped up salubrious during the chelts previews as his nap of the festivel at 25/1.if he wasnt such an annoying fat bunt i might have back,ed it!oh be nice dexter
Thanks Dan, but it was George and others who had Cue Card. I love Cue Card, but First Lieutenant is also a great favourite of mine so just watched. Great for the Tizzards who surely proved to their detractors that they are not just farmers? Had a nice kitty saved-up for the Festival, but it's gone LOL! There's always another day. The Irish were brilliant and really went to town this year. Thursday was an awfully bad day though. Christ I hope those guys pull through this OK, very serious injuries. Not forgetting the horses either.
I don't stick many up as a rule but have a very decent back catalogue. I had a debate with Nass re this race in Feb after Chapo ran and think I was the first to flag him....could be wrong though...
With all due respect, you were abit of a cucky lunt in that race. A winners a winner though, fair play
Had more than a few with some mates tonight..but I can confirm that Mark C****y is a dentist who the World No 1 knows very well..watch this space. Gary ******,a good friend and fellow patient,said that the dentist rolled his eyes when questiioned whether his pain was so "severe" Hmmmmm Tiger Woods won the US open with a broken leg.
