[Other Sport] Cheltenham festival 2024

[KZNSeagull]

On the TV before the first race there was a wise old punter who said he was lumping on the first 2 odds on favourites but wouldn't back El Fabiolo as it could make mistakes.

I went with that and did rather well (for me).

It was the interview with Willie Mullins just before the off that made my mind up. He was not confident and mentioned that his jumping was crap, which is not a good signal from the trainer really.

UK 1,2 reverse forecast!


That's my Friday curry for the next couple of weeks covered.

Getting some good e/w places with Kyntara and Emitom just returning £50.

Fil Dor 40/1 next up.

Titanium Moon 16.50 @66-1 worth a small E/W bet at those odds

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

Quick reminder that TB has Bunting running in the Triumph Hurdle (1.30 today). Currently 11/1 with bet365, backed in from 20/1. Presumably TB trying to recoup the £100k he reported lost on Ile Atlantique on Wednesday. Gotta be worth a small each way shirley

Had a tip that Salver is in v good shape and loves this ground and I've also done an ew on Mighty Bandit when I got 60/1 with an mgm promo a few days ago. Both the 130.

Decent run from Salvar especially as his usual jockey is injured and a nice e/w pickup. Gary Moore has pulled two of his other runners (Hansard and Teddy Blue) but no surprise he has left Nassalam in the big race as it loves heavy ground.

Astonishing Bum Queen yet to run. Let's hope that tomfoolery doesn't escalate into blind ugly violence.

 

[Is it PotG?]

I DO enjoy the pinnacle events of most sports, and The Gold Cup is no exception.
Pity it looks a one horse race, we'll see.

Not a pity if you lumped on - like yours truly

I've just been around Cheltenham racecourse. Only because Alan Brazil was standing in my way.
