Cheltenham 2019 Ante-Post bets

Sporting Life podcast on form today.:(
Spent five minutes talking about why OK Corral might go JLT, and that connections had entered it today.
Even though JP has three other viable options in the race.
And it's not even f@@king entered.

Gizza Job.
Time for a fat jockey podcast cos these professionals are embarassing at times.
 
A little bit of negligence today, should have known the declarations would have been made for the novice chases and perhaps would have cashed out some bets (been holding off for NRNB!) On The Blind Side particularly annoying as I knew he wasn't going to get declared etc.

Leaves me with:

790 pts - Total Staked
55 pts - Non runners (excluding cashout/NRNB)
31 pts - Returns (from cash outs/NRNB)
624 pts - Live stake remaining

Exactly same boat Kev, was waiting for NRNB to cash a lot of these including OTBS - absolute twit

Need to be careful with novice hurdlers next week, suspect bookies are waiting to see entries this year
 
FWIW and may be of interest to some, I have just been in local Ladbrokes and speaking to cashier. She confirmed as of Monday (28th) Ladbrokes will be going NRNB on the 5 Championship races.
 
Yet to get Santini covered for the RSA so stuck him in a treble with Adjali & Birchdales appointments tomorrow at 30/1

Feels dirty looking past Topofthegame but I I’m convinced the winner won’t come outside of the top 3 in the market!

Update below - key takeaway for me is I have far too many novice hurdlers covered for my liking. I don't want more than three in a race max anyway, but the form is so muddling I'm half tempted to wait till the day unless it's a great price I'm already on.

The cull and cash begins tonight....

That is far too many for me to compute when I'm on the gin.

Like mine, hopefully there are some diamonds in the mud [Gerry Cinnamon]

I don't disagree lads, even I was surprised adding them up. Some way yet to match Kevloaf's 790 points though :devilish:

Think it's a combination of me looking at races since July, and the impact on how Bet365 has altered the strategy this year. I certainly don't intend to have any where near this in 45 days time...

You have brilliant positions in a few races, notably the RSA and NH Chase.
