    Depends on how much you've layed out,and how much you want to win! Personally I'd let it ride,i think it'll win,but if you want to do 1 or 2 others to cover yourself,i certainly wouldn't put you off. It's your money pal !

    If he jumped fences that well though Oddy...worth a chance early next season.

    The problem with cover bets is you can't cover the whole field, so if an outsider wins then you've lost even more money.

    You could lay Lumini on Betfair if you wanted. Though it's entirely your call.

    We're not talking massive money or anything, I've put about 70 on this week and won nothing so far <laugh>

    Stand to win around 240 if Lumini comes in. Guess I'm just after suggestions on who to back if I did try and cover myself...

    Do you have a betfair account? If it was me I'd be laying some off now as her price looks very short for a twice raced novice.

    But I'm more often wrong than right. The bookies are running for cover, so you may prefer to hunt them down. Really is your call.

    Great performances from the big guns, the way Vatour and Thistlecrack accelerated was more than impressive !

    Nah I only hav a coral account. I normally bet on the footy but like to get involved come Cheltenham week. Seems to be a day for the favourites so far so hopefully it carries on. I'll probably let it run to be honest due my lack of knowledge regarding on who to lay any cover bet on.

    Thanks for your responses guys <ok>

    UNBELIEVABLE

    Leave it Graham. This is a funny old race. You have a very strong favourite that apparently is the best work horse in at the entire Mullins yard (better than everything that's won this week already) and then one from Ellison that has run up to 149 but after that you have loads of improvers that could be anything. Without wanting to sound like a knob, if you've lost £70 so far and could win £240 if you let it ride i'd allow the bet to stand without any cover. If you lose all you've lost is a meal out with the mrs this weekend. If you win you've got a a new pair of shoes for the wife, a meal out, a few cocktails and if you play your cards right a blowjob to top things off. <laugh>

    Difficulty you have mate is that Limini aside, no one really knows just how good the others are, so it's hard to say there's a definite 'next best' after Limini.

    I'm having a tenner on Hendersons Bloody Mary because she could be anything, but Liminis form stacks up incredibly well.

    Cashout offer up to £352. I'm inclined to leave it now already got over £100 back from my stake so even if i get nowt else i'm happy with that but i'd be gutted if i cashed out for £300 and could have won £10k. So **** it let it ride!! Come on Fingal Bay!
