lol i know, but hes an intended runner wondered if the run might be to "get a mark".

Could end up that way but I believe they're hopeful they have bought a graded prospect.
 
Have added a small stakes, speculative EW Lucky 15

North Hill Harvey - Arkle @ 16/1
Kayf Grace - Mares Hurdle @ 20/1
Bless The Wings - XC @ 12/1
Kemboy (:encouragement:) - JLT @ 25/1

To extend that further. They are hoping he could be a supreme type. I'd be thinking more along the lines of the ballymore.
Iv covered both previously
But he'd have to win well for them to have that chat further down the line.

Santini AB 8/1 nrnb.

That's all my bets done now for the graded races. Shall be awaiting the handicaps on the 28th
 
Not sure if we need a "Special Offers" thread... But

William Hill will now be doing one per day

Today 33 days to go: Getabird, Footpad, Buveur D'air, Apples Jade and Altior - all to win, 33/1
(Not overly clear, but I am assuming Any Race...)

HOWEVER: If these 5 go Supreme, Arkle, CH, Mares and CC (which is all but assured, other than Getabird) - they are 37/1...


Not one for me - (although I already have the first 4 covered for 29/1)

Not for me either, both these offers at first glance look tempting but Altior in both enough to put me off, Obviously he may be back firing after weekend but not for me.

Ahead of the handicap entries coming out, i've put together a little shortlist of horses on interesting marks... obviously not all of these have Cheltenham as the plan, but all have form and marks that would interest me. Any comments as to targets (and ones i can rule out) much appreciated!

Any of these entered for the Kim Muir i'd be interested:

COGRY (138)
BALLYDINE (135)
MISSED APPROACH (138)

LANDOFHOPEANDGLORY (132 IRISH RATING). Anyone an idea as to where he might be heading? Stinks of a plot to me

OFF YOU GO (133 IRISH). Martin Pipe bound?

MOUNT MEWS (140 BRITISH). Any chance he'd be handicap bound? Mark jumps out

POWERSBOMB (134 BRITISH). 4 lbs lower than when finishing a well backed 4th in the novice chase last year. Plate maybe?

Others:

JETT (140 IRISH)
LIVELOVELAUGH (137 IRISH)
DEMI SANG (145 IRISH)
POLIDAM (145 IRISH)
PEAK TO PEAK (130 BRITISH)
BAY OF FREEDOM (136 IRISH)
THELIGNY (137 BRITISH)
DRUMCLIFF (141 BRITISH)
CHATEAU CONTI (139 IRISH)
PATRICKS PARK (133 IRISH)
 
Bay of Freedom is being aimed at the Midlands national the day after the Gold Cup according to his owner, on here :triumphant:

Great idea the offers thread
 
Just a quick warning to anyone placing FREE BETS with Hills. Non-Runner Insurance does not cover these.

I wouldn't expect anything back BUT it does mean that Accumulators are LOSERS if one horse misses the Festival.
(And doesn't roll on to the remaining horses)
 
Interested to see what mark Ok Corral gets after that, was on 138 I’d imagine he’ll be up to the mid-high 140s
 
This is my first post, If everyone had just one bet for Cheltenham what would it be?

That people thought was a banker. Or a value bet? And obviously at current prices now.
