[Other Sport] Cheltenham festival 2024

[Is it PotG?]

Had a free bet to use, Henry and Rachel have done the bizzo.

Super Cheltenham, looks a bit damp though.

 

[Sussax]

My 30/1 treble has just come in, just a shame I only put a £1 on.

Hope Highland Hunter is okay.

 

[Hotchilidog]

Day one and another horse dies. Same story every year. RIP Highland Hunter.

 

[Paulie Gualtieri]

Mystical Power
Quilious
Chianti Classico
Stateman

Up so far which is rare for me

 

[Sussax]

I wouldn't wish one of my fancies on my worst enemy at the moment I doubt I'll be troubling the bookies too much with my one E/W bet today, Harsh in the 16-50.

Ran very well.

Only put a £1 e/w @ 33/1, thanks @Frankie

PaddyPower gave me a free £5 Cheltenham bet, so as I know bugger all about the gee-gees, I did my usual with any horse racing free bet.

• Look for the first race paying lots of places.
• Look for a 25/1 or greater shot with a name I like.
• Use free bet E/W

Unbelievably worked today and won £12:50 for a freebie

16. Twig
25/1
12th Mar CHELTENHAM 14:50 HANDICAP CHASE 3m 1f 0y - Each Way

Kinda bailed me out as well,even though I had the winner I picked up more for the Harsh place

A little bit up after day one,I like sixmilebridge odds in the 17-30 so will give that one my burden e/w today.

 

[Sussax]

Ballyburn in the 13:45 is boosted 1/1 with Bet365.

£10 max stake for me, but I’ve seen others able to put down £40.

 

[NorfolkGull]

Possibly the worst festival day ever today

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

TB will have high hopes of Ile Atlantique in the 1.30 shirley? Currently 6/1 on bet365

 

[Simster]

Possibly the worst festival day ever today

Agreed.

The offers have been shit, only a handful of freebies being dished out and I'm gubbed with most of them. And although there were a few extra places being paid yesterday, the odds in those races were shocking. I get that their over round has to be higher for EP races, but they were much worse than we've been used to.

And now the 4:10 has been called off, it just sums up this edition of Cheltenham so far. Gash.

It won't beat Ballyburn though

 

[Simster]

The markets agree with you, although Ballyburn has drifted slightly from 4/11 to around 4/9. (Well it hard last time I checked)

I see Henderson has pulled many of his horses now including Jonbon and Shishkin due to the ongoing issues in the yard.

The heavy going will give Ile Atlantique a bit more of a chance but I still can't see Ballyburn getting beaten

Thanks got £40 on cos of you.

Two big Mullins favourite winners.. the bookies will be looking for something from the next race/lottery.

 

[Is it PotG?]

Even 'Mr Hyperbole' Ed Chamberlain hinting that this meeting is a little dull and predictable.
Mullins can't win EVERYTHING Shirley?
