Uncle Spielberg's Cheltenham Challenge

[Mtoto]

Count me in. Can't wait for the roar as the tapes go up for the Supreme, and if Amaretto Rose wins (backed at 12-1) I should be ahead at the end of the week whatever happens...

I will do it but as I can't get on in the morning can you direct me to where I can find the information tonight so I can post my horsies today.

Thanks.

 

[pasty]

I'll play please. I know absolutely naff all about horse racing, which could prove fun. Won £220 from Amberleigh House winning the National 2 years ago - Only bet on it because my step-daughter is called Amber, and my best mate is called Leigh !!!

Thanks.

it starts Tuesday 13th March, get the Argus late pm the day before and it should have the runners for the next day

 

[SeagullTim]

Nice one, will do my best but my Dad doesn't buy the Argus even though I tell him to.

OK - and to show the full command of my knowledge and tipping skills, I'll make all of my selections now.

I'll have the second favourite in every race - based on the official Starting Prices.

If there are joint favourites then I'll have the 2nd alphabetically.

If there is a single favourite and joint 2nd favourites then the 1st of the joint 2nd favourites alphabetically.

I think that covers it!

 

[Vankleek Hill Seagull]

I'll have a go at this. What's the worst that could happen.?

Who does all the calculating of the winnings, etc.? I haven't got a clue how all this 35/1 stuff works.

 

[The Auditor]

count me in

 

[Al Bion]

Count me in please (but will need to post the night before due to draconian works firewall)

 

[TSB]

TSB's in!!!

 

[Legend]

Count me in !!

 

[Hannibal smith]

I will be well and truly 'up for it'.

(Anyone else heading up for any live racing? Nail-z, Arthur and myself shall be bashing the on-course bookies on Gold Cup day)

I will be there on the Wednesday and Friday. I love going the Tuesday but I will be on a flight so I won't even get to watch it. There's organisation for you.

Anyhow my bet of the meeting is to lump on LODGE LANE in the bumper. He has won both starts on heavy and the trainer rates him. 34-1 on betfair, but with this rain he will go off at shorter than 16-1.

You have been told.

 

[Barry Izbak]

Can anyone remember who was the only participant last year to give you WAR OF ATTRITION to win the Gold Cup?

I am looking for another similar result this year.

Count me in

 

[BUTTERBALL]

Yes, if i'm not too busy studying the form!!

 

[Trigger]

The 2004 NSC Cheltenham CHAMPION (Trigger) is looking to reclaim his CROWN.

 

[Uncle Spielberg]

I still owe you £ 5

 

[Tazman]

I'm in please!

Interesting one for sure - ties in fairly closely with Den Of Iniquity via Edgbriar, but is three times the price. Also positive that a horse he beat by 50 lengths last time won a hurdle at the first time of asking. Smart trainer, too. Big each-way chance if it stays wet.

 

[Easy 10]

I will be watching Thursday's in a pub in Southwick

What pub ? Cricketers ? The Ship ? The Pilot ? The Romans ?

I might STALK you if I can't be arsed to work that day.
