Chelters 2016 Antepost bets

I wouldn't be shocked if AP didn't turn up.
 
Vautour or AP.

Who's your money on?

Taken from the preview night thread from last nights Betbright preview with Rich Ricci

Rich Ricci claims Vautour only started working well 4 days prior to Cheltenham last year. And at the moment he's just not seeing that spark.
If he doesn't show us that spark we might miss Cheltenham altogether. Rich Ricci adamant he'll stay.
 
It's less chance than the other 4 of winning !

Well yes, there is always that, I suppose I'm guilty of over thinking this now, lesson learned though, I won't be including bookie owned horses in any ap bets I place in future,
 
Taking on preview notes and info on here I have added these in multples


Jer's Girl @ 12/1 - very well in compared to the disposed favourite

Ui Maine Phil Smith Campeador mark interesting. Admirable he's not swayed by market/ego. Over 10l to find with Jer's Girl, rated 4lb higher than her.

Very Much So @ 16/1

MG, I think Squouateur looks likely to head for the Martin Pipe.

Have you tried putting bets on in the shops Isty? I frequently do that, spread your bets out and break them down into less meaty chunks, then stick them on in shops where you aren't known
 
The Jamie Lynch handicap Yankee
Blue Hell, County
Squouater, Martin Pipe
Our Kaempfer, Pertemps
Javert, Close Bros h,cap chase
 
My latest bet is Long Dog 10/1 to beat Yanworth in the Neptune. This horse doesn't seem to know how to lose and looks more impressive at this trip, he shouldn't be out of the frame.

Mayo mentioned his price should be shorter and I totally agree.

LR - I only opened the account last Friday, took advantage of the deposit £200 and they match it offer.
I only really wanted the account for Cheltenham yankees and streaming as theirs is more reliable that betfair.
I was able to get a couple of £100 e/w bets Sat with B365 but the five I want in my Canadian are all shorter with B365.
How about you ? They seem better now than they were a few years ago, I heard a story about a jockey who has an account with them and they use his bets as info and his bets aren't small !
