Welcome Iain - the more on here the better !

Looks like all the runners in your lucky 63 are still going ...only another 8 weeks to go.
 
Thanx for the welcome Old Vic.i must admit my lucky 63 was a speculative bet at the time for just a small stake, however I'm now beginning to get excited ha, I love trying to second guess mullins much to my cost over the years but this time I hope ive got the right horses in the right races!!
 
I think you have the Mullins hurdlers in right races Iain - whether they win is another thing altogether !
 
Jollyallan
Gilgamboa
AV
Martello Tower

Win only Yankee 22 pays £187k ;)
 
Kicking myself for not doing an early double on UDS on Arkle and Vautour in JLT. Paddy Power got that right.
 
UDS is going to scare a lot of them off so finding something that should run and backing each way (like Sgt Reckless) sounds like a great strategy to me.

I've been thinking about the ew element of a few of the races at Cheltenham this year and because of the number of very short price favs I think there are some great opportunities. People forget about the accumulative effect of the place part of an accumulator, especially when there are such big prices offered for top class horses. Maybe we could come up with a few ideas between us, perhaps the ante-post bets thread is the place for that, but worth considering in my view. eg; Sgt Reckless 20/1, Hurricane Fly 8/1 Champagne Fever 8/1 and Hargam 12/1, all 1/4 odds for a place, the place acca pays around 216/1, over 2 grand for a tenner, stick Kings Palace in there at 5/1 and you're near £5000, if they're all placed, £500 for a quid, you could have 10 goes.
 
Going be adding Two Rockers 12's in the Foxhunters and Court Minstrel 16's Grand Annual Cloudy Copper 16's Festival Hcap Chase

I like these bets !

lets try and find a few high priced horses to take the shorties on with. Good shortlist above and Liam seems to have a few fancies in the handicaps.
 
just joined, been reading for a while but this thread got me interested as I have recently done a similar bet and looking to do more!
Alvisio Ville - Supreme
Sgt Reckless - Arkle
Arctic Fire - Champion Hurdle
Apache Stronghold - JLT
No More Heroes - Albert Bartlett

Im expecting alvisio Ville and no more heroes to win, but my main bet this year consists of the faugheen/un de sceaux double (got 6-1 and 10-1). This acc place pays 1512-1

Sweet double Roose, nice one, acca looks interesting too
 
I had a go at this last year on my blog at http://www.cheltenhamantepost.co.uk/blog/in-search-of-a-50-cheltenham-festival-bet-to-win-1million

Think a lot of the bookies now limit at £250k so maybe £15 to win £100k should be the challenge !

Good theory Mayo but you went too early last year Mayo !

I think targets are a bit clearer in Feb that Dec and some of these markets will have less than 8 runners on the day.

Love to see someone on here land a big one. It can be done !

Welcome on board Roose. Nice double !
 
I'm going to have to add Glens Melody for the mares hurdle to the list, would have an excellent chance of winning without Annie Power,
but great chance of being placed at around 7/1 even with AP.
 
Here's another I've placed
Glens Melody 7/1 Mares
Apache Stronghold 12/1 JLT
Cue Card 7/1 Ryanair
Kings Palace 5/1 RSA
Rock on Ruby 10/1 world hurdle

Not all the best prices but that's how it goes with accas, place roll up pays around 180/1, also had them in a canadian
 
Vibrato 14s
Southfield theatre 20s
Moon racer bumper 14s

Rolling on to

Djakadam in Gold Cup

Four fold pays £62k for a £1

Ew 15 punted.
 
Nice thread lads.

Just did the Non Runner No Bet Races

Jezki 5s
Uxizandre 14s
Annie Power 8s
Bobs Worth 14s

12000/1 on the Acca. All have festival form but might need some forgiveness for recent shows !
 
For anyone looking to back win singles it might pay to check out 188bet, I fancied a few quid on Shutthefrontdoor for the Gold cup and he's best priced 20/1, when I looked at 188 they are offering 43/1. Another example is Uxizandre for the Ryanair at 48/1, currently around 16 to 20's with other bookies. Downside is that overall for horse racing this site is awful, there are no place terms offered for ante-post and you can't place multiples, but defo worth checking out for win singles. They also don't offer NRNB.
