There we have it lads - I still have others but they don’t really have a realistic chance. I’m not phased by this being a washout as I’ve enjoyed the guesswork and kept me interested throughout the summer - I will be putting together more accas for 2019 once this Festival is over - I think Dlauro, Envoi Allan, Samcro and Good Boy Bobby will feature heavily in those
Haha your just like me DS in the office, half concentrating on work and half on Cheltenham.Every year we have a Cheltenham discussion lunch in the board room.They can never shut me up so taking a vow of silence this time!!
Got quite a bit of Holiday left so went to book off the festival," sorry mate but we have a big velocity project going on then and no one is having any time off then" not impressed with that so i've had to carry over to next year, off from the 19th March to 9th April I'll be having quick 5 min brews all week so i can watch the races in the canteen.
Monday's key events Fox Norton out of the Ryanair with suspensory issue Willoughby Court cannot be considered a certain runner in the JLT, says trainer Ben Pauling Willie Mullins is "leaning towards" Unibet Champion Hurdle for Yorkhill Mullins says Douvan "considerably better than 50-50" to make festival
I do believe that he is better than the jockey who was going to ride him. Also Codd has never won this race and if he agrees to ride the horse I want to believe that he sees him with real chances of winning.
Evening all, I have 1x Tuesday and 2 x Wednesday tickets going spare all Tatterstalls Enclosure - £50 each which is a bargain as they are £55. Private message me if you are interested - will delete the post once they’ve all gone Cheers
Thirteen days until the start of the festival and it is very risky to make a forecast about the weather but the meteorological models point to heavy rains on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. Hopefully they are wrong.

21 in the X-Country seems a very low number. And got to say that prizepot of £65k for the race is Ben Pauling’s brother (i.e. A. Pauling). Gallahers Cross is in the Bumper, mulled that point over on another thread, which is interesting. Meanwhile, the horse named after what I’ve got, yes that’s right regular readers, Wonderful Charm, should prove very hard to beat in the Foxhunters especially with the forum’s favourite Corinthian up this time around. Woeful prizemoney again though re this one - just £45k.
