Cheltenham 2019 Ante-Post bets

Hi all,

Hi all,

Hi all, first time poster long time lurker. Very informative site, and great discussion. I have a nice portfolio of antepost bets done, with le richebourg hitting me hard for some!
Have a nice few value bets with derrinross in the AB. Another forgotten horse i think is missy tata in the mares, last jumped over fences similar to the prep of last years winners, a class horse, and I have not heard a mention of her by Elliott.😊
I backed her at 16s, and with the deflection of laurina and apples jade to come i think it looks a great price. Only my opinion though!

Hi Fly,

I've been looking at Missy Tata as an alternative option. The other being the Skelton's Roksana, think both are good e/w shouts.

Only question with MT...bounce?

Bounce is a possibility, but fingers crossed. I like it when there is very little talk about a horse i fancy!

It is strange given how nice her comeback was from such a long absence

888 have announced they will honour ante-post Cheltenham Festival bets made by BetBright customers as a goodwill gesture.

Earlier this week 888 completed a £15 million purchase of BetBright
 
I'd say I'm pretty much done with my staking (ignoring confirmed NRs)

Fair to say I've got in a right old tangle with the novice hurdlers this year, but I'm sat on some nice prices and will firm up the position at the weekend / on the day when I've seen the likely ground - Question for somebody, when does Bet365 suspend the cash out function?

Wishing everyone on here good fortunes - lets bash some bookies

All over him for the Plate. Put him up a while back for the race, expecting a big run.
 
What was the excuse for the shocking performance time? Dropped away to nothing.

Apart from the glaringly obvious 454 day break he was coming back from I have written why I like him on page 1 of 'The Plate' thread.

As for 'shocking' I think you need to re-watch the race as up until 4 out he was going as well as anything, before dropping away to nothing like you say, this being a result of time off the track IMHO. I also don't have him as an out and out 3 miler, 2m 5f is perfect.
