Cheltenham Day Three Daily Thread

[Dexter]

Steveo - Hector's Choice is a lovely horse - I backed him last time at Kempton when he just got outstayed by Nacarat. He has a lot of weight today though

One pound lower than Kempton though Oddy.

In the 1.30 CHAMPION COURT 8/1 is my selection, won well over C&D LTO on similar going and had SOLIX and INVICTUS 1 1/2l and 8l behind respectively, that form has since been franked when INVICTUS beat BOBS WORTH next time out and we all know what he did in the RSA yesterday.

A half fit Bobs Worth.

 

[OddDog]

Odddy I have been telling Nass chapo will win for months. I will be out on the piss on frid thanks to him. Slightly in profit thanks to the bumper yest. Have backed PC and our father and rubys ride in the second so far.

You gonna have your new laptop for the Derby?

TBH Dex I'm a bit confused that he's running today as I thought they were aiming him at the Grand National ...................

Lucky E/W 31 for me today.

1.30 Solix
2.05 Restless Harry
2.40 Somersby
4.00 Giorgio Cuercas
4.40 Swing Bill

Also lumped some money on Sticky's 100/1 e/w

 

[hawkeye]

can it make that much of a difference? not the first time he's switched yards i believe. what was the effect last time on his running?

He showed signs of temperament last time out so they thought switching yard would sweeten him up. If the change has improved him mentally then we can expect a better run. The last time didn't cause much of a change in form.

Peddlers Cross is awfully short at 5/2

 

[hawkeye]

ok, thanks nass.

 

[GGW]

Zaynar has place claims in my book and I was shocked to see he was 28s last night. He has course form and if you look into his form this season it's not as bad as it looks at first glance. I haven't backed him I should add.

 

[NTD is the man]

Sir des champs 5/1 taken this morning to start the day well

 

[NassauBoard]

Peddlers Cross is awfully short at 5/2

Still think thats quite a big price for a horse who looks well ahead of the field. Took 7/2 last night and I am very happy with 10 minutes to go.

 

[GGW]

For Non Stop passes a few of them up the hill to win in my eyes. 7/1 fair price.

Ted Walsh can't say enough good words about Sir Des champs. Gold Cup 2013 if Willie looks after him?

 

[Wayward Lad]

A half fit Bobs Worth.

Just cant see him running a bad race to be honest and INVICTUS looks a top horse, either way hes good value at 9/1 for his CHeltneham form alone which is very good.
