Tips / Bets The 2018 Cheltenham Festival Betting Competition - Rules and Selections

Thank you very much everyone.

You know I'm not English and I do not want to write much in case I'm wrong. I am very happy to be here with you.

And on the other hand I'm also very very happy with Blow By Blow because I took him from October to Albert Barlett 25/1. It could not be there but I already wrote in today's thread that it seemed to me very superior in class to all the horses of the race.

Happy days for me with Samcro 16/1, Penhill 14/1 and Blow By Blow 14/1. Burning Ambition failed me but ...

And many thanks to Ron for the immense work done here. I really do not know how he does not go crazy.

 

Congratulations!
Well done Pilgrim
&
Well done Tward07 - just like they quote in the GC it's the last 1/2 furlong that counts!
What a comeback.

 

Top stuff Pilgrim and Tward. hope you had a good Cheltenham with the real dosh too!

Thanks Ron for your time for doing this. Good fun. Cheers.

 

Thanks.

In a general balance I have had a magnificent Festival. In addition to those mentioned above I also had Coo Star Sivola 14/1. Those successes have covered me the disappointments of Burnign Ambition, Le Breuil, Demopolis (not even seen) the same as Aione, Apple's Shakira (double with Laurina), Townshend, No comment, etc.

 

Cheers Mick.
The most consistent Cheltenham I have had to date with winners on each day at decent prices. Hit the bar a few times but had a brilliant week off work and look forward to next year

 

Pilgrim, wardy

 

Well done, some great shouts in there fella.

 

Congratulations to FJ who gained their revenge in the team event in no uncertain manner. As last year the Team Event A, is based on the best 6 scores from each side. With FJ managing to secure 7 of the top 10 in the overall table it's no surprise how this ended



NB Cashew King also scored £8,750 but only 6 can be counted in the top 6

 

Team Result B is based on the total scores of those who made the top 10 overall leader board. Here we got trounced
Fatjockey £83,250.00
not606 £46,066.67

 

But once again, we fought back to capture the individual Gold and Individual Silver

Individual Gold. Pilgrim (not606) - £18,800.00
Individual Silver. tward07 (not606) - £17,500.00
Individual Bronze. Sirbetalot (Fatjockey) - £16,375.00

Congratulations. Very impressive scores all round with 26 making a profit , some enormous profits

 

Thank you all for taking part. I'll catch up with POTY comp tomorrow (along with the League 2 Betting Comp, the FA Cup Betting Comp and the Saturday Racing League Comp). They will be a doddle after this

 

Well done Pilgrim, tward07 and all, some impressive betting - thanks for the opportunity to join Ron and thanks again for your time and effort.

 

Hello not606!

Just over from the FJ forum to say a massive thanks to Ron for arranging, managing and updating us through the week. Was a brilliant sub-plot and congratulations to Pilgrim and tward07 for the 1st and 2nd!

I hope you all have had a brilliant week.

We'll be looking forward to next year!

 

Why the flip did I not have Pacha 500ew like I did last year DOH

 

We'll done Pilgrim, cracking score, must also give a cheer to my old mate Ekbalco99, 3rd place from 606 and in need of a new liver.
I'll not dwell on my performance.
Biggest thanks, of course, goes to Ron for running this.

Onwards.

 

That was the first thing that came to mind as it charged to the line. I actually said to myself, "Why the **** was stick not on that?"

PS. Well not exactly then

 

One reason Ron. I had to google to find just who the **** the rider was!
