Cheltenham Festival.

[Togo]

The festival starts tomorrow. Always a great week of National Hunt Racing. I have been looking at the runners and have narrowed the field. Well for me anyhow. I have listed below some of my 'fancies'.

Tuesday Wed Thurs
1.30 Min* Yanworth* Lami Serge
2.10 Douvan*&Vaniteux No More Heroes & Shaneshill Taglietelle
2.50 Ballykan Rock The Kasbah Vautor*&Dynaste
3.30 Annie Power* Un De Sceux* Cole Harden
4.10 Vroum Vroum Mag* Balthazar King La Vaticane
4.50 Local Show Frodon Limini*&Smart Talk
5.30 On Tour Bacardys Dr Harper&Ballykan

I will do place pots every day based on these selections but will be having a close look at a nice acca or a bet that includes 4folds upwards on the *selections. Bear in mind that Vautor holds an entry for Fridays Gold Cup and may not run Thurs at 2.50. I think tomorrow the bookies could be slated with 4 of those selections, albeit at small odds. On Friday I like Ivanovich Gorbatov but will wait for now. Plus Dr Harper that I have picked for Thurs 5.30 originally held 6 entries over the 4 days.

[Psybbo]

Good luck Togo

[Svejk]

good luck.

[Psybbo]

Bernie, behave

[Ken4155]

See you've erred on the side of caution, Togo, by including at least 4 favs in there.
As a devotee of stats, i was having a good look earlier and whilst there is no doubt that Min is the classiest horse in the opener, it will have to buck a few trends if it is to win.
I haven't finalised my opening day bets, yet, but best of luck with yours.

[melv16]

I've won on Balhazars king a couple of years ago. So, I'll be having a tenner each way.

[Togo]

I laid them out so that the 3 days were not compressed on my processer but AB has blurred them into a wild bunch. I think the bookie could get caned first day with 4 short priced favs. So I will post tomorrow again.

Shall we take bets on how many of those poor horses have been put down due to injuries at the end of the day?

[237SJ]

Still, never mind about that. I hope you win lots of money.

[Togo]

We could always ban racing and have......... no horses I suppose. Wrong thread for bleeding hearts.
