I'd keep it for now. He's not running in the next week so nothing likely to change

See how the 2m6f race looks and then decide. If Samcro looks unstoppable then he's more likely to run AB?

I have kept it. Hope more of prices are on the up after Dublin fest. Means must be doing something right! Haha

Going back to the Bet365 cash out option, I've just totaled up all the bets that have this available to them and they are offering over 320pts back, that's more than I staked even with Annamix/Nichols Canyon/Limini/Finian's Oscar (Arkle) losses, plus I know a lot of them will be losers too as covered in more than one race, not to mention Salsaretta, who may not even turn up!

Seriously contemplating taking the profit already, albeit minimal, and starting all over again, with NRNB/BOG available but obviously this means losing some tasty looking bets in the process, which of course are the ones that boost the amount of pts returned massively.

Thoughts guys?

Do what's best for yourself.
Financially I could cash all bets out have slightly under 3 x my original cost of all my bets and be very happy .
However, I find it very difficult personally to tie that money up and not touch it if i cashed out. I like to leave all money for after chelt.
I will not back anything on the day . Although i may have a few bets each evening before in the handicaps.

It's not for a want of needing the cash, it's just finding myself being able to be in profit, after the way my ante post bets were looking is something I would consider quite remarkable to be honest.

Obviously I got something right when putting them on, although it largely looks down to Apples Jade in the Mares', BD in the CH & PM in the Arkle for me to have any sort of decent return on them now.

I'd weight up the potential return of those that you have better prices on winning.... if that amount would clear your ante-post losses and then some I'd leave it... if it is not that great a return, then I wouldn't.

Whatever you've staked NOW in total.... work out what your returns would be in total if they all won, and work backwards, seeing how many you'd need to WIN to be "worthwhile" to you?
 
I'm in the same position CoD and my cash outs from B365 more than cover all of my ante post bets placed so far. I'm letting them ride - I'd be devastated if one of my 'face spitters' landed and I'd cashed out for a small profit.
 
Cheers lads.

Think going to let them ride, my biggest cash outs are Apples Jade & BD double which returns 100pts on it's own, then PM & Samcro double which returns over 400pts and I still like these bets, no reason to cash out really.

Just after the start I had to my AP bets it was more a relief they I could actually still get back what I staked overall despite a lot of losses before the festival even starts.

I'd certainly leave both of those.

As things stand right now I am -742 pts... :highly_amused:

Counted all mine up the other night, and think it was about 150pts.

Don't feel quite as much of a degen now, lol.

I have 100 pts in NR now, which is 13.6% - I imagine that is more in non runners than plenty have staked :disgust:
 
Footpad
Samcro
Laurina
Might Bite

2pts @ 69/1 NRNB BOG
 
Pesk ebrel triumph hurdle
50/1 ew nrnb bog.

Classy graded form
 
Cash outs have further increased on the back of the news Samcro is heading to the Deloitte, as had him covered in multiples for the Supreme @ 20/1!

I don't vision he will go to the Supreme now anyway, which means the bets that are available to cash out at over 30pts that cost me less that 2pts may be taken advantage of.
 
I’ve had some NRNB paid back with bet365 and also cashed out my best paying lucky 15 as I can’t see Stay Humble making the bumper now (if he does I’ll be in melt down mode)

However cashed out for more than 5x my stake which I’ve put back on

Apples Jade
Petit Mouchoir

Samcro

3U fourfold (pays 330U)

I love the bumper and will be stood on the finish line to watch Hollowgraphic romp home

But there will be absolute scenes if Stay Humble runs and wins

Same here. I will be cheering him Home on the line. I maintain he’s been the best of the Irish so far.

I've cashed out my Stay Humble bet too, it's 5 weeks next Tuesday until the festival, seems like it would be cutting it fine to run and then go again at the festival, and I can't actually see any entry for it at the moment.

Hoping Hollowgraphic does the business now :)
