          For June’s Festival Forum Yankee, I have a Bet365 best-priced foursome to offer.

          These are:
          Day 1: Felix Desjy 16/1 Arkle Chase
          Day 2: Bright Forecast 25/1 RSA Chase
          Day 3: Gypsy Island 8/1 Mares Novice Hurdle
          Day 4: Lostintranslation 14/1 Gold Cup

          Best Priced 59,669/1 with Bet365.

          Three ran at the Festival this year, Bright Forecast finished with a real rattle to be third in the Ballymore, Lostintranslation ran a cracker in the JLT vs Defi Du Seuil and Felix Desjy bizarrely had a change of running style when running from an unsuitable mid div position, into 5th Klassical Dream in the Supreme. Following this;

          Felix Desjy improved his previous best with a Grade 1 Aintree Win from the front, beating Aramon, and then 11 lengths clear of the third, when a Grade 1 2nd to Klassical Dream at Punchestown.

          Bright Forecast was put away for a Novice Chase season after Chelters with an RPR of 150 and OR of 149.

          Gypsy Island was saved for Fairyhouse and Punchestown Festivals and improved with two wide margin wins.

          Lostintranslation improved his RPR to 165 and OR to 161 when stepping up to 3 miles and beating
          Topofthegame at Aintree. He is already a 7yo, and Colin Tizzard has already mentioned the Gold Cup, which looks a feasible target for all the top staying novices, including this fellah.
          "Journeys to Glory, breathing in his head".

            Re: LIT & Topofthegames Aintree form. I would personally take the winning margin with a pinch of salt. Topofthegame was clearly overcooked after being cherry ripe for the RSA & never travelled a yard.

                Disappointingly only a few bookmakers have races like the 4 miler and Foxhunters priced up at this stage so I’m unable to get on, I suspect there will be others in the same position.
                Just for consideration on future yankees until markets fully mature....

                  Will take that into account from now on.

                  Went with these four simply on numbers. These were the most popular. Didn’t even think of the races tbh.

                          Added October’s into the OP.

                          Also.. who’s got the September yankee on? Bet365 offering me a three times my stake profit on it with all four considerably shorter.

                            I did the September one but got greedy and added Ferny Hollow in the bumper as well. My cash out is equivalent of a 1/2 fav.
