Cheltenham 2019 Ante-Post bets

Still lost £1 backing him in the race itself to view, for which the video was unavailable. Diddnt have the cheek to ask for that back too.

Think you've done the right thing. Don't think he would have won today and it was a heavy fall and an ordinary enough renewal in my opinion. Even if he was okay 2 more races in 6 weeks and then Cheltenham would be a big ask against fresher rivals. Like Q said, I think you're in excellent shape for this race with your price on the fav and a fancied second string to your bow (even if the rider is a bit dodgy!) if you need more arrows I should just wait and see what Nicholls runs!

He was the only other one I fancied pre race So looks like I'm set now. As Gordon's horse is too short for me, but his forms good.
I'll have to watch it back when I'm home.

Sounded on rp commentary just a soft unseat. (Amateur race)
Likely I made a bad panic decision. For want of missing out on a big price.

Yeah he hit it hard and tossed the jockey out over his neck so it was an unseat, but she took a pearler and just got up and walked away thank God

...be interested what you think of the race after watching it back. I thought GB was still very much in it, but the bigger doubt is him getting qualified for the Foxhunters given the timescales.
 
365 cash outs disappeared for some races for anyone else? Could be the sign NRNB arrives tomorrow if so....
 
Yep gone for some of my bets. Seems to be bets that have the cross country and foxhunters. Entry stage coming up?
 
Wonder why then as they’re still taking bets on both markets

I am liking that Leman
 
Just watched the racing from the weekend and thought COLONIAL DREAMS was an eye catcher and think he could be a Coral Cup horse.
Jumps, travels and improving, thoughts ?
Might ask sky bet for a price, might be worth a cheeky fiver ew nrnb

He needs to go up minimum 7/8lb to stand a chance of getting in the Coral Cup. Might get a small bump for the run at the weekend but will need more than just a couple of lbs. Also interesting that he's raced almost exclusively right-handed.
 
Bit early, but added 2 for Fred Winter.
Couer Sublime 20s -
could go triumph, but they may decide he's not quite good enough, will depend on next run
Dogon 33s -
entered up saturday at cheltenham but scooby thinks unlikely to run, nicholls looks to have at least two other likely candidates for the triumph in quel destin and pic d'orhy. Dogon, Also entered at fontwell sunday in lot weaker race. needs one more run to get a rating.

He's enough runs.

Yeah, wondered bout that, ATR have five numbers against him, but his form states 2 hurdles and one chase run. Racing post has him as having had three runs over hurdles. What does the french sites say.
