Cheltenham festival

[Slime]

I once spent an evening chatting to an equine vet.
She claimed that most horses with a broken leg could be saved .................................... but their career would be over so, unless they are a stallion, they are worth more dead due to the insurance.
That doesn't sit well with me.

£25.00 profit on the week, can’t grumble.

A tough days card tomorrow, i could easily back 4 in the Gold Cup as I like a few so hopefully i’ll Land a big one.

Singles

1:30 Pich D Ory @9/1

Got very good french form and it will be tough to beat the jolly but I think this is value at 9’s.

2:50 Commander Of Fleet @15/2

Up in trip and gets the ground.

3:30 Presenting Percy @ 4/1

A classy chaser with experience round Cheltenham that’ll love the ground, my only concern is he’s only had 1 run leading Upto today.

Thistlecrack @16/1 ew

An absolute Warrior of a chaser, missed out last year due to injury and chased Clan Des Obeaux down in the King George on Boxing Day. He’s got the form and if he runs anywhere near to his best he wins.



Double EW

2:10 High Expectations @40/1

A very well handicapped horse from a top yard and got a very pilot onboard. Elliot usually does well with these types of races.

3:30 Thistlecrack @16/1

As above.

Pays 752/1 ew 🤞🏻

Happy Punting!!

What a pile of *** 😂😂

I've ended the week in profit even though Tuesday and Today were car crashes.

Roll on next year

2 good days and 2 bad days.... Just over 50% increase of the pot over the 4 days so can't moan too much.

Horrible seeing the scenes today, it's the one thing about jump racing that's hard to take.

We should get together.

Tuesday good, today good,(had the winners of the first two races).

Slightly down on both Wednesday and Thursday.

Overall pot increased by 170%.

£5 down
Well that was a £2:50 each way bet on the Gold Cup.
Other than the sad tragedies, I really enjoyed the meet.

 

[Bazz]

Absolute carnage yesterday, only had Hazel Hill all day. Still enjoyed the day out.

With all the outsiders winning it was very subdued at the racecourse yesterday and of course what happened to Sir Erec in the first also dampened the mood.
I got lucky with £2 @ 130/1 on Rachael Blackmore’s winner, but other than that yesterday was a washout.
