Get the first bet out of the way nice and early 9.45am Sha Tin-Super Elegance Each Way @ 15-2 [William Hill] 4 places Goes well for the Champion Jockey
Duffle Coat to continue his progression in the Triumph Trial Fusil Raffles likewise I'd love Slate House to win the Paddy Power after what happened last year Elle Est Belle in the bumper n'est ce pas?
ITV races .... follow at your peril (plus a long shot in the opener at Chelts) Chel 1230 Jersey Grey ew 140 Fusil Raffles (if only he had his knackers, he could have been put to Lady B - I would buy a share!) 215 Simply The Betts 250 Debestyman ew 325 Captain Tom Cat Ling 305 Dubai Warrior 340 Good Effort Good luck all
Good morning gents, at work today so I’ve put my bets on early. Hope to be home to watch the last couple of races. Little yankee and a couple of singles at Chelts. 1.40 Gumball 2.15 Al Dancer 2.50 Mrs Milner 3.25 Son of Camas Have a great weekend fellas, good luck with yours
I was on a zoom meeting this week that Sam Twiston Davies contributed to. He said he was most looking forward to two this weekend, AL DANCER today and RIDERS ON THE STORM tomorrow!
Scoop 6/Ew Lucky 63/Acca: 1:40 Cheltenham - Fusil Raffles 5/4 2:15 Cheltenham - Brelan D'As 20/1 (4 places) 2:50 Cheltenham - Dandy Dan 15/2 3:25 Cheltenham - Shinobi 11/1 3:40 Lingfield - Judicial 4/1 3:55 Cheltenham - Ishkhara Lady 5/1
I can't wait for the Shloer Chase tomorrow, looks an absolute belter. 5 of the 6 rated 160+ (well only 4 officially but I can't fathom why the mare is only rated 154 and I'm sure she'll be 160+ after this) - I can't remember when we last had a 2 mile chase with this depth of quality. Should be an amazing spectacle.
Punchestown 14,00 Pure Genius 3/1 Uttoxeter 14,07 Head To The Stars 9/1 e/w ( In this case the heart is stronger than the head, a wonderful 100/1 winner at Leicester four years ago). Cheltenham 13,05 Lamanver Pippin 4/1
Morning ..bets today: Cheltenham 1.40pm Zarkareva 10/1 each way. Henry De Bromhead won this last year and she gets a whopping 13lbs from fusil raffles. Cheltenham 2.15pm Al Dancer 8/1 each way. One of my fave horses in training so sticking with him for this where the extra 4 furlongs could bring about extra improvement this season. Cheltenham 3.55pm Elle est belle 9/4 win. Good luck all!
Just adding a little double to my bets for the day: 12:30 Cheltenham - Duffle Coat (the more i look a this, the more i'm surprised that it isn't favourite) 1:25 Punchestown - Flying Scotsman Double pays 11.25/1.
Only concern with Duffle coat is the penalty that he carries and giving weight to the Nicholls horse. If he does win he will be a serious triumph contender!
I'm on Simply The Betts in the PPGC but having watched his last run in France where he fell at the last (close up but probably wouldn't have won) I've chanced 6d ew on Pinson Du Rheu at 190-1 .... now out to 200-1 in places
Morning all... Just the picks from Cheltenham today... 12:30 - Duffle Coat, 5/2 1:05 - Arthurs Gift, 10/1 1:40 - Fusil Raffles, 11/8 2:15 - Al Dancer, 13/2 & Siruh Du Lac, 10/1 2:50 - Dandy Man, 8/1 3:25 - Captain Tom Cat, 7/2 3:55 - Martello Sky, 11/1 Good luck to all who are playing today...
