Cheltenham Day 4 Daily Racing Thread

Aye was a rough night beef, im not the only one who should have been embarrassed the next day though. Lost the plot a bit but **** it, its cheltenham innit blood. If your going to lose it once a year might as well be the bookie benefit week.

 

Of my tickets left I have VL Rouge + The Skyfarmer in the next...


Next Sensation + Astracad in the last... Then that's your bleedin lot... If nowt comes im up on the week, just. So any sort of win/placed horse from now will be a bloomin bonus after how the day has gone on today...!!!

 

Last throw of the dice in the Grand Annual, Astracad. Didn't win, but as always a fascinating Festival, although could have done without all the injuries. Wish all those jockies a speedy recovery! Brave guys, for sure.

 

**** it been drawn into an each way go on The Disengager. Too old but it's in here of a mark well below it's chase form, relishes good ground, Hobbs in decent form this week and 66s is just too big.

 

The similarities between this friday and the friday in the gold cup two years ago are startling for me. Had an absolute shocker, didnt pick a single winner all day and was left with £2 so i stuck it on Bellvano and went away absolutely delighted cos i picked a 20/1 winner. Hoping for the same again now as ive not had a single winner all day, down to my last £3 and stuck it on a McManus horse. Here's hoping Mr Mole can win to end my festival on a high again!

 

1:30 - Royal Irish Hussar and Tiger Roll
2:05 - Minella Foru and Rainbow Peak
2:40 - Massive lay on Briar Hill
3:20 - No bet as yet but fancy Last Instalment, maybe just EW
4:00 - Oscar Delta, Certain Flight and Tammys Hill
4:40 - Don Poli, Vieux Lion Rouge and Royal Regatta
5:15 - Raya Star and Ned Buntline

One of those day

 

Glad to see someone is taking money off those pesky bookies... Well done Fabio...

 

Well done Fab, safe to say Briar Hills fall saved the lay though!! Great tipping.

Ned Buntline interests me greatly in the last but he's a piss poor finisher but then so was Bellvano 2 years in this race!

 

Cheers, was due a good day.

 

Yer haunted Fabio, all I can say. 3 horses every race, shrewdie

Full Shift ran too bad to be true, honestly, I dont think I was more confident about one outside of The New One or maybe Colour Squadron, ran like a 500 quid horse.

In keeping with the festival to be honest, the ones you are most confident about get beaten out of sight.

Keep an eye out lads, because Full Shift is a horse you will be hearing about in the future and if that is not the case, you know what they say....

My name is not Boris Fenster.

 

Well done Fabio

 

Turns out Bobs Worth beat my placepot today.... ouch! paid 44k although if he placed i would imagine more around 300 - 1000

 

Cheers Ron

 

Cheers.

Wouldn't say I'm massively confident with Ned Buntline but well worth a punt.

 

I'm hoping you haven't finished yet, as I'm on Raya Star. **** that Buntline thing.

 

Haunted

Cheers mate.

 

Lottie Dod is thrown in tonight in the Dundalk opener @ 9/2 runs off 81 down from 90 where she contested a lot better races than what she will face tonight. Fran Berry does the steering. Good luck.

 

Can't describe how disappointed i am with Briar Hill's fall. Bitterly disappointing.

I've not looked through the thread yet as driven 5 hrs for a works weekend at Centre Parks but safe to say Kings Palace did not let me down. Unlucky anyone who backed my selection. Hard to say what would have happened but I'd definitely not swap my lad for anything in that race if I could run it again.

 

Not a great finisher, JP McManus silks with a red cap. The signs are all there! If even has bloody Paul Carberry on it as well. Reckon i picked the wrong one with Mr Mole

 

Well said Bob, chin up mate. Your horses form won the race and i wouldnt see past it if it stayed on its feet
