Cheltenham 2018

[spireite]

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

Usually singles, but I can't afford to lose huge amounts so my stakes aren't high. I bet with a points system, and always level stakes. A mild fancy will be 1 point, a decent fancy 2pt and a strong fancy 3pt. I work on £5 a point and always want to float around 100 points across my accounts. Because I bet more or less every day, that way even if I had a horrible few weeks or even a month, I'm still not depositing any more and the bank can take a bad run. Usually float around 100 points in my betting bank though.

Avoided the last two as well Blade, fortunate to profit today so not gonna get greedy.

Quick learner.

What a run by Missed Approach. Bit annoyed, nearly had that one. Not to be today

 

[spireite]

Independence Day saved the Day over at Chelmsford. Took 6/1, went off even money and hacked up

 

[spireite]

1.30 - Redician 5/1
2.10 - Duca De Thaix 9/1 / Chesterfield 16/1 (not confident in this race)
2.50 - Santini 4/1 / Chris's Dream 8/1
3.30 - Might Bite 4/1 / Road To Respect 8/1
4.10 - Burning Ambition 7/2 / Wonderful Charm 6/1
4.50 - Diese Des Bieffes 15/2
Nothing in the last yet

Been matched betting on this bad boy all week, couple of punts here and there too. Probably my worst ever Cheltenham but I've lost a shit load of betting accounts this year. Hit 500 today but most of that was thanks to Monday, if I can get 600/650 by close of play tomorrow I'll be satisfied.

£20 return from Skybet will be going on Our Duke in the GC, or winnings from the bet!

 

[spireite]

Decided on Don't Touch It in the 5.30 seeing as it's out to 11/1

Like Killutalgh Vic for the GC as well  too many with a good chance. If his jumping holds up I think he wins. Just a huge question mark

Was gonna stick my £20 free bet on Just Bite, bad idea?

Might Bite? No he's a good bet and campaigned aimed solely at this race. The problem is most of them have and its a properly hard race. Dart board job, like most of the races today

 

[JJH]

Might Bite yeah sorry, fuck am I on about...

 

[spireite]

Stormy Ireland out to 8/1 for the opener. I'll have some of that

Had a little nibble at Mr Ajudicator this morning.

 

[JJH]

For any of you that haven't signed up to BF...

Had a little nibble at Mr Ajudicator this morning.

About ready to punch Michael O'Leary's head in now.

 

[spireite]

Would never have backed that if I found a tenner on the floor and it had his name on it. Mental how well Gigginstown is doing

 

[spireite]

Chesterfield running out of steam and getting beat... Sounds about right this season. Each way money tho. Would never have picked that winner again, rate dart board job today

 

[Leo]

Got 12's for Flying Tiger this morning so thought I was on to a good thing. Did it even finish ?

 

[blademan89]

£40 in free bets on might bite at 9/2 and 7/2, £40 @ 9/2 and £20 at 4/1. Not had fuck all else today other than 20 in the 1st and £11 on a Yankee. Come on might bite

 

[Leo]

Ya dancerrr. Cry me a River....what a saver. Great ride & jumping all race. Had a tidy £20 on @ 5's.

 

[Bobbin']

Had better festivals.

Thought Might Bite had it going round the bend, Native River seemed to be doing too much too early. Proven stayer I guess.

Never mind.

 

[Leo]

Well that's it for another year thank buggery. Only £30 down for the week so not bad.

 

[blademan89]

Great first 2 days shocking last 2. Well up though

 

[Bobbin']

Cheltenham will be well forgotten if Silsol can win the midlands national at 12/1

 

[Bobbin']

4th. Better than nothing.

Got the winner in that. Only a point each way but it removes the damage from yesterday

Silsol was travelling well but think the weight caught up in the end.

Incredible from the winner really considering only having a 5 day rest.

Thankfully won £110 on a 4fold of Wolves, Preston, Accrington and Wycombe today to rescue the week.

I just picked him at near random really, just wanted one that would definitely get the trip. Minging ground and 4m+ . Didn't see the race

Only reason I went with Silsol really, knew he would stick it out and be there or abouts.
