Last day of the festival which hasnt always been kind to punters over years.Been a decent festival for me compared to last year's bloodbath. Happy to come out even today.
Goshen Win/ Sir Phyco Ew
Ciel De Niege Win/ Saint Roi Ew
Fury Road Win/ Cobblers Way Ew
Delta Work Win
Hazel Hill/ Kalabaloo Ew(125s)
Greaneteen Win/ Croco Bay Ew (33s)
Front View Win(Nap)/ Indefatigable Ew (50s)
Dissapointing Run from Front View but happy with Indefatigable.Glad its over!!
 
Definitely been a week to forgot for me punting wise. But onto Day 4.
Triumph: Goshen - Hard to get away from him, but his price is starting to put me off. Will stick an EW on Cerberus.
County: Sir Valentine for Twisters, small rise for a solid run in the Betfair when finishing 1l down after jumping the last awkwardly and slightly hampered at the same time. Tiger Tap Tap EW for Mullins.
Albert Bartlett: I expect Latest Exhibition to win as I think he is the best horse in the race, however this often goes to experienced hardy bastards and my pin is falling into another Twisters horse Redford Road.
Gold Cup: Delta Work for me here, he has been winning the right races and has been doing his best work at the very end, this further 2f will suit even more. He was an unlucky 3rd in last years RSA and I respect the 2nd season chasers here. Lostintranslation is drifting to a nice EW price and I will be having a play on him too.
Foxhunters: Shantou Flyer stayed on strongly to 2nd last year and I can see him getting his head in front.
Grand Annual: I like festival form in this race and Us and Them brings that here after last years Arkle. At a big price I can see Winter Escape running a nice race.
Martin Pipe: Horses with potential to be top drawer come out of this and I like Willies' Five O'clock. Another at a huge price could be Indefatigable who has solid form behind Dame De Compagne.
Thankful I quoted this. Iv had a pretty **** festival then managed to get on the 40/1 winner in the last.
 
Al Boum Photo made the festival for me - in terms of the fact it was such a great race and that it was the biggest winner of the week for me

2nd best result of the week for me was the 4.50 today. I backed the winner and the 5th place horse Theinval (who I back here every year) my bookies paid out 5th place on this which at 40/1 was a great way to end the week!
 
Great 4 days but yesterday was sooooo unlucky with Goshen and Column of fire both falling at the last. I m still slightly haunted by those images..:emoticon-0128-hi:. Definitely my worst day betting wise yesterday as just the 2 places for me from my bets.

Well done Al Boum Photo who I couldn't believe won the gold cup again. Never warmed to the horse..I picked Bristol de Mai and Clan Des Obeaux who was very disappointing got me.
