15:30 Cheltenham (Gold Cup) - Bravemansgame (Just hope he can handle the softened ground conditions. Continuiing drizzle forecast)
More confident today than yesterday but we know how that usually ends up then. Here goes; Blood Destiny Hunters Yarn Sandor Clegane Conflated Famous Clermont Magic Daze Imagine All the best to everyone having a go
Good morning all, hope we’re all having a good Cheltenham and enjoying the races. Will be a very good one for me if either or both, BLOOD DESTINY and GDC win as I have them in many multiples and accas. So will keep it plain and simple today and will follow W Mullins runners. 1.30 BLOOD DESTINY 2.10 SHARJAH EW 2.50 EMBASSY GARDENS EW 3.30 GDC 4.10 BILLAWAY 4.50 ADV Good luck everyone
Last day of what has been i great festival so far despite me hitting the bar more than i can remember... Anyway here are the ones to go close but probably continue to shave the post or hit the corner flag...!! 1:50 - Blood Destiny 2:10 - Ballyadam, Gin Coco 2:50 - Favori De Champdou 3:30 -GDC or Apt, both in AP bets, might have a bet on Breavemansgame nearer to the start... 4:10 - Chris's Dream 4:50 - Jeremys Flame, Riviere Detel 5:30 -Might I, Spanish Haarlem Good luck to all once again, its been emotional...
I’ve probably backed too many again today, but if you can’t have a bet on Gold Cup day when can you? 1.30 Lossiemouth win 2.10 Winter Fog ew 2.50 Dawn Rising ew 3.30 GDC win Ahoy Senor ew 4.10 Bob And Co ew 4.50 ADV win 5.30 Iroko win A little ew Lucky 15 with my ew selections too. All the very best with yours all
ok final day - I have had better festivals but not been all bad! 1.30 I have flip flopped from Lossiemouth to BLOOD DESTINY. Looks to be the improving horse and form has been franked this week. Soft ground will also help 2.10 First Street has that all important festival form but I am leaning towards PEMBROKE as the solid bet in this race. Ballyadam and Pied Piper also good each way alternatives 2.50 Plenty with chances but CORBETTS CROSS looks a pretty strong favourite. Embassy Gardens a good each way bet along with Stay away Fay 3.30 Galopin des Champs looks to be the one to beat but in a Gold Cup he looks a bit too short. My only ante post bet of the festival was on BRAVEMANSGAME and whilst i am a little less confident now I still think he has a good chance. Noble Yeats and Minella Indo to run into a place 4.10 Vaucelet with The Storyteller each way 4.50 Allegorie de Vassy 5.30 Might I - might just have that touch of class to win this.
Away from the Festival... 3.45 Fakenham-Parramount @ 5-2 [Bet 365] Would not look out of place if running at Cheltenham
I fancy the Ivy Grower to bag a bit of glory in the Albert Bartlett - Chianti Classico - lovely name for a gelding
Davy Russell stood down. The law of sod suggests Conflated will piss him right off in 20 mins time. Noble Yeats to stay on best up the hill for me though
