Pretty sure it’s out a Tuesday. Boosted odds with Boyles.

Tony’s Tips

James Du Berlais Turners boosted from 8 to 10/1
Gaillard Du Mesnil BANC 6 to 8/1
Favori De Champdou Spud 12 to 16/1
Scarlet And Dove 5 to 13/2

Barry don’t think they boosted his, not sure.

Appreciate It Turners 8/1
Gaelic Warrior Ballymore 5/1
Bloody Destiny Triumph 14/1

I quite like off the Fence for the opinions of T.K and B.G , but V.R's voice grates at me !! .
Any way i digress , Blood Destiny is Available @ 16-1 on Corals if anyone likes that one . :encouragement:.
 
Cheers. Tony's still there, but they where also up from at least Monday when I first noticed them, maybe even sunday evening. FDC back to 12s already. Says week 3 but first time I've came across them.

Definitely week 3 , It ran last year -( 2021 ) from about nov/dec .
Was out on a tuesday then too . - youtube.

Was listening to Off the Fence, where they mentioned Jordan Gainford and Sam Ewing as able deputies for Jack Kennedy, it got me wondering if Davy Russell may be tempted out of retirement in light of Jacks injury :nonchalance:

I do hope not just in case anything happened to him. Those two are able deputies and he'd get other top jocks to ride. Codd piece would be more than happy to grab several rides. He ain't a bad replacement.

Think the fact Davy bowed out in Thurles and didn’t hang around till Christmas Racing or the DRF hints at he’s done done. Be very surprised if he comes back.

Am sure he has other ventures lied up already too

Heading to OZ for a year or so in February. My GF is all panic about going and the only thing I am panicking about is not being able to bet for cheltenham. I know I can set an account up over there if needs be but I have plenty of funds in my betting account here.
just wanted to know what is the best way to go about betting over there with my Irish betting account. Will I be able to get a VPN installed on my phone to use the betting app? Sorry would not have much of a clue about VPNs and any suggestions to which VPN to use?

Codd is a good shout as someone who can step in,of course he wouldn't be doing many low weighted runners,so if he does get jocked up for one in a handicap this could be a pointer in itself.

I've been in Oz and been able to bet & watch racing using a paddy power account & used my BF account to to lay off some bets,had no issues at all infact which surprised me.
Enjoy your trip,it's a great place to visit.

Nord vpn i use if needed but you will have issues using bet365 should that be your main account.

Yeah I'm pretty certain the probability of Davy coming back is 0

I went to Oz in 17/18 and had no issues using Bet365, if that helps, at all :encouragement:

I need to get a gig as a racing manager, particularly someone with horses with Willie. From what I see you just have to do an interview repeating what he said, sounds like an absolute doss. Anyone got an in?

Got plenty of time for David Mullins, interesting thoughts on GCW possibly for a martin pipe and he's pretty sure of himself with Appreciate It being the one upped in trip.

For a horse so lightly race I can't see how they are going to squeeze another two runs in before the festival to get a mark for Grangeclare West. He has no current entries and 9 weeks to go.

Also was in Oz 2018 and using Bet365 was fine, strange waking up at 4am to check the live football scores like but yeh was fine to use with no VPN etc just using your usual data on phone so guessing most other bookies sites will be the same just don't use any of the apps. Enjoy!

Tom Lee, probably the longest introduction to questions ever, by the time he hands it over to Mullins, he's f**king dazed And forgot what the question was or what day it is.
Chill Tom.
Go easy on the Latte.

Thought it was just me thinking that :biggrin-new: He reminds me of your man David Mitchell
