dave258 Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 Should have romped tgat race! Stupid fucking horse That cheered me up for some reason. Now to chase some losses... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thepaisleypanda Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 I mentioned this a few pages ago but..... Does anyone think 10/1 for Kauto Star in the Gold Cup too big? Iv lumped £20 on it Was 12/1 in places after the race last week! Certainly worth an EW chance at that price. There wouldn't be a dry eye in the house if that thing managed to win a 3rd Gold Cup! Look out for Midnight Chase (20/1) at the moment - definitely in with a shout at big odds! Time For Rupert has also been a horse tipped up & backed on this thread over the last couple of years. It is now 5/2 clear favourite for the RSA chase earlier in the week. Should we start a specific thread for the Cheltenham Festival? Thus leaving the forum clear for day to day stuff? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lichtie23 Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 I was thinking the same thing! Cheltenham 2011 deserves it's own thread 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lichtie23 Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 https://salesportal.jockeyclubracecourses.com/jcr_ws/jcr.aspx?venue=CHE Are you thinking of going? I am indeed thinkin of going fella. I have a mate who stays in Hereford which isn't too far from Cheltenham so would just stay there. Would love to take the Mrs but she doesn't really like it. Defently going to Perth a few times this year! Beautiful little racecourse! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJP Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 As well as Friday, I am hoping to make Cheltenham on the Thursday. No hotel for me, 30 min trip Would love to do the whole week. My wallet and liver however would not. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJP Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 (edited) No, but you're certainly top boy Look who's second This thread went off for a while when all these bamsticks started posting. Will have a look at it more often now. Never forget the day Kayster nearly tipped a fourfold at Carlisle(i think)?? and the final horse was second and the poor guy didn't get the bet on and he took it on the chin with a c'est la vie attitude.All credit to him Just have to try and get through it! Fond memories of Kaysters tips. Was on for several thousand going into the last race, was pipped on the line by McCoy. Won several hunderd pounds though and still spent the weekend feeling sorry for myself Edited January 21, 2011 by DJP 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrBigstuff89 Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 Lucky 15 on the following at Wolverhampton: 17.05 - Misty Morn 17.35 - Barudine 18.35 - Il Battista 19.05 - Olympic Dream 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJP Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 (edited) Try the Cheltenham website ya lazy sod Seriously,I think they range from about £20 upwards for advanced sales but more expensive on the day but I'm sure pp or djp will put me right. Plenty of touts about on the day (could say more, but would probably be branded racist.... f**k it....You will see no black people at Cheltenham races except for the touts, so if you have no tickets, approach a black person, they will be selling as well as asking to buy spare tickets off you). Last year was the first year I had seen tickets still available on gold cup day at the ticket office, shows how hard the recession has hit. Plenty of tickets still available, I ordered my 5 for the best mate stand only a few weeks ago. £35 a ticket. Generally speaking you get what you pay for. Wouldn't pay anything less then £35 on the friday unless you plan to see nothing and be miles from the winning post, beer tents etc... Finally, plenty of gypsy's outside offering to sell lucky shit. Don't mock them like me, or else you end up with no winners and falling over a wall after the racing knocking your front tooth out, nothing to do with my 10 pints of cider but clearly a gypsy curse put on me. ps Was at Cheltenham in November, now over £4 a pint and you will need a loan for food. Strange how you moan at £7 for a burger and chips (Luckily SS is not there to knock them out your hand) yet think nothing of sticking £20 e/w on a 40/1 shot Edited January 21, 2011 by DJP 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJP Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 A rather speculative e/w lucky 15. No idea why I am backing Stardust Dancer, but twice when reading the paper the name caught my eye and once again now it has jumped out at me. Really should not be wasting money on it, but by my crazy logic, I’d be daft to not bet on it. 5.35 Wolverhampton Abulharith 12/1 6.05 Wolverhampton Stardust Dancer 33/1 7.05 Wolverhampton Bold Bomber 33/1 7.35 Wolverhampton Southwark Newshawk 20/1 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll be okay at Cheltenham though as I would imagine there wouldn't be many buses driving through the racecourse for you to spill your chips on. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rydo1982 Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 Anyone on Master Minded tomorrow? 4/6 nae value. Petit Robin @ 8's for me I've went with Master Minded as one of my three bets today.....short price but just can't seep past him (had the same opinion on Kauto last week righ enough!) Other bets are Carole's Legacy in the 1.50 at Ascot and Soldatino in the 2.55 there. Disappointed about Haydock being off as I had a couple picked out for there. Probably saved me losing cash right enough! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree with Tanya,think Kalahari King is due a good run and is a good e/w bet. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lichtie23 Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 Master Minded 8/11 now. Somersby and Petit Robin both 7s. Some EW value there! Maybe even a tricast 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe even a tricast 8/11 is the price I've taken for Master Minded. Happy enough with that price as I can't see anything in the field beating him. Only bet I have put on so far for Cheltenham this year is on MM to win back the Champion Chase. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
