Unsure if I'll have any more outright bets today except Quevega and the Fly. Sprinter Sacre strikes me as the typical too good to be true, so gonna take him on with Al Ferof. Really like Montbazon too.

only had montbazon in the placepot, typical down at the first leg lol.

Good ride from Cinders And Ashes to win the first.

didnt back cinders and ashes today...but put in an acca last month with the hot pots so fairly pleased just should of stuck with it today!!

same here

was only a quid, never mind, deposited a fiver for my daily placepots. isnt gonna get any easier to get six placed horses over the next three days.

look at alfie sherrins form, another dodgy mcmanus gamble?

Been a bad morning for me.

Sacre my only winner.

pumpkin rates rock on ruby his best shot here

thats blown a couple of my accas, still got a treble going. will hills will be doing cartwheels.

Gave the fly far too much to do there, AP followed Ruby as well.

Quevega to save the day! (partly)

if quevega wins i'll be level whatever happens over the rest of the week. ideally want big bucks to win too. by sound of it hurricane got far too hot before the race.

Scotsirish put down on the course after a horrible broken leg. Bleak for Garde Champetre too. That Cross Country course seriously needs looking at...

What was a promising start has turned out to be pretty poor today. So far...

after sacre won i put on rock on ruby thinking odds on nevr win two on bounce

so now on quevega but profit for today does me, and still got the 3 special bets on too

putting a e/w bet on mics delight pays for first 5 on betfred, good day for me apart from nicholls only 1 winner and nothing else.

3 wins, 2 places. (Menorah came 3rd too but only in a field of 6)

Modest profit. Could have been so much more had Hurricane Fly had actually stepped up. Ah well, theres always tomorrow...

horrible day



tomorrow looks much better!!! (famous last words)

Managed to get the placepot up to a £1 so can't complain really. Won't cost me anything for the week now!

what did the placepot pay?

£76

Pretty poor day except from the Sprinter Sackrace, Quevega double

2moro's picks

Tea for 3
Monkland
First Lieutenant
Sizing Europe
Cape Dutch
Argocat
New Years Eve

Win lays of Sizing Europe, Simonsig and Grand Crus.

Decent place bet on Walkon in the RSA. Massively overpriced, will improve for the trip, better ground will suit, and I love Exeter novice winning form when they go to Cheltenham.
Bobs Worth and Walkon in an exacta.

Will be avoiding the Mullin's nags, summat not right imo.

What's going to beat Sizing Europe? Looks streets ahead.

Hearing good things about Soll in the first tomorrow.

It's owned by some blokes up at home in Whitehaven, and has been sent to train with Willie Mullins.

There are hundreds going down to watch it run, and it's said to be certain to run a good race.

It's got Katie Walsh onboard too, she knows how to win a festival race.

Big Zeb an each-way steal tomorrow? Think Sizing Europe will win, but if he doesn't will anything other than Big Zeb beat him? Only other real danger would be Finians but I don't think he has the battle or abillity to get the better of these two. Money back if it places which I can't see any reqason why it wouldnt, something was clearly a miss last time at Punchestown coupled with the heavy ground.
