E/W Treble aka "Ruby gets his own bloody way and gets to ride the big guns"
Yorkhill - Champion Hurdle
Douvan - Ryanair
Faugheen - Stayers

Tempted to add Min in the Champion Chase as well.

Are you staying local or going to cheltenham cpfcpatriot? If you watching from a local pub what one are you going too, Midday, penbrooke or smugglers? we live near to each other (I'm not a stalker) so could meet up on Tuesday & talk horses, plus I am a big Palace fan since i was a kid...

I am at the Festival every day sadly, but I’m a Pembroke person though know a few in the Smugglers.

I probably know you or know if you. Drop me a PM!

Not sure this will appeal to anyone, but just to flag that Bet365 have total winning distances under 100 at 11/8:

https://www.bet365.com/#/AC/B2/C171/D20570918/E36442947/F2/G-1/H-1/P10/

And Sunbets has over 95 at 5/4:

https://www.sunbets.co.uk/sports/betting/Racing Specials/competitions/Cheltenham Festival Specials

So if you put the same stake on both you can guarantee a minimum 12.5% profit and if the final result is between 95-100 (bearing in mind the mid-point is likely around 100 so a possibility) then you would have just under 160% profit. If it wasn't the week before the Festival and I had more funds available I would probably do this.

Not sure how much they will let you have especially Sunbets but it is a short price so hopefully a few quid.

Too late.... Sunbets now 10/11

Another mention for the FJ forum... without the personal 'dig' on Scooby and myself this time :highly_amused: although they do have a go at the guy who suggests that we're having intellegant debate (he mustn't have read much)

I wonder if their is a correlation between number of posters on a forum, and number of posters who abuse the other posters :p

Haha. The main one is abuse a post, without looking into that post or constructive reasons why they're against.

I remember the original slating was because 1 of there posters put up first flow as having at chance at 25/1 ew nrnb in the supreme.
So they advised he should join all the other idiots on this forum as that was aparrently such a ridiculous selection. :devilish:

Almost every one of us will have to stomach some sort of abuse in ur daily working life's. Almost every one of us will have to deal with " stupid" every day. Bite our lips when we would like to abuse someone for their clearly nonsensical ways. So , when it comes to horse racing, a sport and spectacle I love, I'm delighted to chat and read comments from others that love the game. Without abuse, without snide remarks and without confrontation. I've been betting horses 25 years, and I'm still trying to find the " system". So anyone who believes that anyone else's selection is in some way inferior to theirs needs to have a look at themselves. I'm very happy to pop on here and read and comment, and most of all respect each individuals thoughts. Long may I continue. I know a bit about a bit , there are many on here with far more knowledge than I will ever achieve. But that's good. We all have our strengths. Keep up the good work. And enjoy the sport for what it is.
 
For me so far

Dounikos @20/1
First flow @16/1
La Baque au Roi @8/1

I'll watch the champion hurdle no bet For me. Think of having a few on Saint Calvidos
