Topped up on Mengli khan supreme at an average of 142.0
 
Topped up heavily on footpad any race 16s.
And had a smaller bet on footpad arkle 33s
 
Paddy Power would only let me have £10 on. Thankfully, Betfair were more accommodating.

That performance by Footpad was the best I've seen from a novice chaser this season. Faultless.

Mullins just said arkle. Very rare he says that. Normallyy wouldn't rule out the 4 miler.
 
Quite Happy with 25'1s now for Invincible Cave for Bumper.

Gordon just said "hes a big stayer he's next year's horse he might run in one more bumper then save him to jump a hurdle "
 
Cant remember the last time Gigg sent a horse to the Champion Bumper, the bookies know it and they really shouldnt have them in the betting.

Not long ago avenur dune vie. But i know exactly what you mean. Can't blame the books though I'd be happy to lay them. You can't just offer odds on certain runners. And it makes the market for others.
 
Just had a few small bets so quite enjoying the excitement now the season has started. Not having £20 or £30 bets till after Christmas time. Got a few more for the bumper as well due to run yet at big prices.
 
On the Line is back . 5.30pm. @AtTheRaces. Special guest @sevenbarrows. (Nicky henderson)
 
Do you reckon Henderson will give much away tonight at all?
 
Not normally my thing, but:
SkyBet have a couple of Request-A-Bet Trebles up.

I've had a cheeky point on each of:
Samcro, Yorkhill & Cause of Causes to win any race @ 60/1
Footpad, Apples Jade and Might Bite to win any race @ 100/1

Granted, if you pick the RIGHT RACE for Yorkhill, Samcro, Footpad and Apples Jade you would get MUCH bigger odds - BUT given the uncertainty this far out... if they all line up at the Fez - you'd get a run (or three) for your money :)

I See what you're saying but...

251/1 sky
Footpad Arkle
Apple's Jade Mares
Might Bite Gold Cup

539/1 sky
Footpad JLT
Apple's Jade Mares
Might Bite Gold Cup

Slight possibility Apples Jade goes Stayers but 0.25 pts on all 4 combinations would be better value than that request a bet... so all your saving is time :p
 
Gutted I'm on my honeymoon and ain't got sky! Love abit of on the line
