Cheltenham 2018 Ante post bets

To any of the guys here who 'get the missus to put a bet on her unrestricted account', do you use the same bank card or do I need to use a different one?

Different. Different address too if you can. I find my sister and Mum have shown an interest in racing in the past. My Nan hasn't developed one just yet :highly_amused:

They'll get you soon enough ryan.
Bookies employ teams of people to identify punters with duplicate accs, you need to ensure the phone you use is not registered to you, you can't use house wifi and you need to change your habits (stakes) just to stand a chance of keeping it a while.
Also, you have to bet football, any account that doesn't see a football bet will get flagged and eventually shut down.
Good luck

Didn't know the latter and I've all but stopped football betting in the last two years! Any idea on how often?
 
I'd suggest throwing a fiver on an over 2.5 acca every Sat

Paddy Power are NRNB CH, CC, Ryanair, Stayers, Gold
 
Altior 4/5, Sizing John 5/1 and Blacklion 20/1 were the 3 that caught my eye but haven't backed any.

I was hoping Footpad would have been double figures for the QMCC.

I was thinking a greasy each way double on Min/Yorkhill.

Not 3 better horses in either race which ever they go for?
 
Just had my big Each Way Yankee for the festival:

Supreme - Sayar
NH Chase - Elegant Escape
Mares Novice - Mystic Theatre
Gold Cup - Blaklion

Blaklion will probably raise some eyebrows, but off the back of what i've seen thus far in the market, nothing has come out and won so impressively to convince me that it isn't a wide open race still. Blaklion did win nicely LTO and now i've just got to hope they take the plunge and go for the GC!

With you on Blaklion, if he turns up he has a massive shout, very big if however.
 
The three weeks between Cheltenham and Aintree might just be enough to tempt them. Nothing ventured, nothing gained. 20/1 NRNB is a decent price for me.
 
Just out of interest, do people think blaklion has improved?
He stays the trip well but away from the unique Aintree fences. Hes well held at this level. He hasn't beaten anything that would get near a gold cup. And native river gave him a good beating after the rsa

Id have also thought he'd be atleast 20/1 with 4 places on the day.
