So last day anticipation, this is what it all comes down to, the big one, who wins the gold cup? Who gives a ****! I'm talking about waiting to see OddDogs betting slip!
Severely tempted to give the last race a miss Denny (although Dallas des Pictons form has been well and truly franked by Coty Island this week )
Seeing a good day for Mr Nicholls today: 1.30 Quel Destin 2.10 Mr Adjudicator 2.50 Rhinestone 3.30 Clan des Obeaux 4.50 Whatswrongwithyou 5.30 Dallas des Pictons
I’d love to round the week off with a dream finish in the gold cup. Some might think I’m clutching at straws but I’m going for thistlecrack. Clan Des Obeaux is being backed and everyone in the media is jumping on the bandwagon. If I’m honest he’s the form horse. Second in the King George, up until his injury he was the gold cup winner for me. Has great course form. So for me a King George one and two in the gold cup. Yesterday proved dreams do come true.
Off to the course again today...currently in Cheltenham enjoying a few swift ones.. Today's bets: Sir Erec Whisky Sour Commander of Fleet and Aye aye Charlie both each way Presenting Percy and Definitly Red each way Sitting out race 5 and 6 Dallas Des Pictons and Big time dancer both each way Good luck all. Fingers crossed gold cup is a classic. It feels like it will be.
Is this a genuinely open Gold Cup or is the anticipated winner just going to cruise? I wonder ..... Looks like another great day is going to unfold before us, enjoy! I've gone each way on Hannon in the opener, after that I'm really not sure at all; think I'll just enjoy it. Cheers, not606! Good Luck All.
the Gold Cup is impossible to solve today! I am on Native River and Clan des Obeaux ante post, but I remain concerned about Presenting Percy.... for me the forgotten horse is MIGHT BITE. could well do nothing but is definitely worth an each way bet. I will also have an each way bet on Shattered Love the rest of the card looks tougher than the previous 2 days. Sir Erec or Quel Destin in the opener, I'm going for Monsieur Lecoq in the County Hurdle and then Birchdale in the Albert Bartlett. Le Prezien might be overpriced in the 4.50 today though just going to get a few bets on and look forward to a great afternoon !
Sir Erec, Quel Destin ew Whiskey Sour, Monsiuer Lecoq ew Lisnager Oscar, Derrinross Hazel Hill, Caid Du Berlais Brelan Das, Magic Saint Dallas Du Picton, If You Say Run Bryony to have a winner today. Guys, who do you think will the ground suit better in the big one. Native River or PP?
Good Luck All Three Final day bets County-Eclair De Beaufeu @ 11-1 [Ladbrokes]..EW 6 Places NAP Albert Bartlett-Rhinestone @ 12-1 [Marathon Bet]..EW Grand Annual-Not Another Muddle @ 5-1..W
Native river prep concerns me with Tizzard not firing this week, don't think percy will win and am not sure about clan des obeaux. I'm going Bellshill ew longer trip and ground no concern. Good luck today Sent from my SM-G960F using Tapatalk
Last day darts!!! Sir Eric/Tiger Tap w/o Sir Eric Whiskey Sour/Mr Adjudactor COF/Birchdale Percy/Bellshill ew Hazel Hill/Road to Rome Magic Saint/Bun Doran Ew DDP/Cartright Two tips I was given that Mullins hopefully for big run from Bellshill.He hasn't won gold cup and normally finds one to many but this race looks wifevopen.Also Coolanly in the last 25/1.
2:10 Cheltenham - Ch'tibello e/w (@ 9/1) (Only bet this year at the Festival meeting, might as well make it in one of the most difficult Lotto-type races of the four days, the County Handicap Hurdle. Maybe this one is finding his form at the right time? Conditions should suit. Good run at Aintree LTO).
What a three days racing we have, and still the one day left to either enjoy... Only bet on a couple of these as it looks a nightmare to find owt... 1:30 - Quel Destin & Tiger Tap Tap 2:10 - Whiskey Sour, 5/1 & Crooks Peak 2:50 - Commander Of Fleet, 13/2, Dinions & Rhinestone 3:30 - I really am struggling to pick one, but I said Bellshill in the Preview, and Bristol De Mai 4:10 - Hazel Hill, 5/1, & Caid Du Burlais 4:50 - Maracudja & Whatswrongwithyou 5:30 - Pym & If You Say Run What a week of racing... Lets hope for some close finishes and great stories accompanying them... Good luck to all...
