Cheltenham 2018

[JJH]

Bad start

Mmmm.

 

[Bobbin']

Gigginstown are getting on my tits.

 

[spireite]

Yea, tough day. I wish Elliott would piss off

 

[blademan89]

That photo I saw looked like the McManus horse won

 

[Craig]

Had bets on Terrefort and Glenloe on the nose so far...

 

[blademan89]

Have an unfortunate feeling cue card will fall or pull up and retire, hope it just loses in 3rd instead as I've had a uds - frodon 1-2

 

[Bobbin']

Yeah, gonna win fuck all today.

 

[blademan89]

Was right on cue card but Jesus didn't expect that. What a day so far gigginstown

 

[spireite]

What a tough day. Shame about Cue Card, that's got to be the last we'll see of him now. Deserves a good retirement

 

[JJH]

Sam Spinner do a madness my son.

Rate competitive race this. Reckon today could be a washout

 

[spireite]

Had a nibble on Wholestone. Likes the venue, fingers crossed

 

[blademan89]

Disastrous day

 

[spireite]

Bit unlucky with Wholestone there. Had to wait for a gap to appear, then the front 2 had kicked well clear. Good training performance by Mullins with the winner though, after a year off

 

[Bobbin']

Had doubts over Sam Spinner from the beginning, lot of hype.

Expected more out of Yanworth though.

Disappointing day.

Last Goodbye only chance left of taking anything away from the bookies.

 

[Leo]

Sam Spinner do a madness my son.

Had it also....some poor jumping put paid to its chances.

 

[spireite]

Thinking of having a go on Guitar Pete in the next. Keeping stakes low is the order of the day today though

 

[spireite]

Got 3 places in that one

 

[Leo]

Ah well, on to tomorrow. At least I got one winner.

 

[JJH]

at last.

Good stuff I've had a shocker, not even bothering with the last 2

Might Bite to save the festival tomorrow.

Might Bite to save the festival tomorrow.

Yep gonna have 20 on the favourite in the 1st, if it wins all on might bite as well as the free 20 I have at the minute, if it loses then both free £20 bets on might bite. Not bothering with owt else.

I've done shit all week but luckily I don't bet big.

It can fuck off now, i'll pick one for the Gold Cup and that's it.

Don't know why I bother, I know fuck all about horses, unbelievably boring to watch.

Stuck £20 on Might Bite a couple of months ago at 7/1, 9/2 at the minute so just bunged another £15 on.

£5 double od Apple's Shakira 13/8 and Santini 9/2

£5 e/w A Hare Breath in the county hurdle 16/1

That's my lot for this year's festival.

I think it's great viewing, especially jump racing.

That anticipation over every fence/hurdle, and some of those finishes today were superb.

 

[spireite]

The best sport in the world horse racing. I'll watch a class 6 on Thursday night at Huntington and be gripped.

Each way payments has just about got me out of a horrible day without too much damage

Nah, does nothing for me.

I just check the results when its finished, only reason i'm partaking is because I work with a bunch of gambling addicts.

 

[spireite]

Go on then I'll bite in the last. Final Nudge 12/1 ew

Do you bet big amounts or lots of multiple, e/w bets?
