Cheltenham 2019 Ante-Post bets

On the Real Steel money, presume Ruby will ride. He was impressive LTO but he has to have one or two question marks, wouldn't have put your eye out over hurdles...

Only has about a stone to find. :very_drunk:
 
Added Clan Des Obeaux with Hills today boosted to 11/1. It’s between him and Percy for me but I’ve missed any value & there’s not enough value in PP currently to interest me. Can’t see Native River reversing the KG form on Saturday unless it turns into a proper slog!

Can not for the life of me understand how Real Steel can be shorter than VDR, even if you're not a fan of VDR surely that is an obvious error.

Because they know real steel is running. And he's open to improvement .
If you stopped real steels runs after he fell alongside sharjah. Both diddnt run to form again all season with the change of ground. He wasn't a bad hurdler. Well see if he's improved as a chaser

I was all over him for the Supreme last season and really thought he was going to be the one, which never happened.

Maybe it is because they know he will run, because it can't be based on chase form that's for sure!

He hasn't had his chance yet. His chase forms fine. What more could he have done in what he's ran in. He tipped up at the last when joining Paloma blue. Then won what was infront of him last time.

Voix de reve is thoroughly exposed. He's experiances, I haven't looked at his mark. But maybe grand annual?

Thoroughly exposed over 2m, yeah, for the top level, he's 150 in Ireland, he won't be well handicapped in the UK. needs to go up in trip now.

Real Steel has beat nothing. 125 & 132 rated animals, not even close to the level required. Paloma Blue won't get near the Arkle so even if he was upsides it isn't like he got within 4 3/4 lengths of Le Richebourg, like VDR has.

I can't see anything troubling the front 2 in the JLT.
dalila de seuil with her mares allowance could maybe go well enough if she ran. Apart from that something would have to improve considerably, maybe real steel could as atleast there could be more to come from him given his chance.

I wish you the best of luck with voix de reve. You make a consistent case. And we'll see what lines up on the day.

My only concern is him turning up after his fall now. I'd be confident on a place at minimum if he did.
 
We can carry on discussing this in the proper thread :p
 
Being positive and taking Paddies 1/5 about racing recommencement it looks very much atm that Saturday will be off?
Gutted personally as have 14 & 10 in Betfair Hurdle Getaway T & Al D

Nicholls when he told Owners Group to back Getaway T each way also said not to back for Festival

Wondering where he stands now ?
Festival or Aintree?
 
They said later on to back NRNB for the festival as if he runs well in the betfair he will shorten. It was more no decision had been made
