Cheltenham 2019 Ante-Post bets

Iv already backed a few since yesterday. As replacements in handicaps. With nrnb money.

Ciel De Niege probably just scrapes into Fred Winter now and I liked the conspiracy theory.
 
...Penhill’s absence will do some damage.
 
If City Island wins the Ballymore..... Does Dallas Des Pictions go off sub 2/1 - Given he was just 3L behind him on Boxing Day?

89/1 (NRNB) boosted double with Lads...

I'm going to have that despite not realllllly thinking City Island is much value.
 
With the exchange (and others) indicating Min will be heading to the CC and with no bet in that race (Fox Norton looking a non-runner) and with a fair few free bets on Min for the Ryanair, had a couple of quid on the double, Min without Altior and BDD in the Mares at 5.75/1 with WH. It's not NRNB but happy to take the chance at nearly double the odds at this late stage. If Min ends up in the Ryanair that would also be fine.
 
hi folks. been lurking a few weeks thought id register and get involved.

ante post positions

glen forsa ew 7/1 nrnb arkle
mortal ew 16-25/1 mostly antepost 4miler
pic d'ohry 16-20/1 mostly antepost

Welcome to the forum long term lurker.

Favourite horse?
Punting style?
How long been into racing?
 
Just done a nice perm of:

Altior
Tiger Roll
Defi & Lostintranslation
Santini & Delta Work & Topofthegame

6 bets and return is between 60/1 and 90/1. As i think Altior and Tiger Roll are bombproof I’m very hopeful one will land.
 
Does anyone know if W Hills is definitely NRNB for the Festival? It still states ante post at the bottom of it markets

They are definitely not going nrnb at any stage TKP.

Ante post rules apply until they form the actual day of the race markets (that may be up a day or so before)
 
That's me done for 2019, this is my last bet before cheltenham.. I call it Paying Off My Mortgage bet AKA Unlikely bet..

Had a bad week with Penhill & Le Richebourg both getting pulled so my singles went down the pan including multi's on them, hoping I get no more none runners, but I have placed this bet with Ladbrokes nrnb.

Dallas De Pictons 5pts win 6/1 Martin Pipe
Whiskey Sour 3pts win 14/1 Country Hurdle
Magic Saint 5pts win 8/1 Grand Ann
Jerrysback 2pts win 25/1 Ultima
Fanfan Du Seuil 2pts win 20/1 Fred Winter
Rider on the storm 3pts win 10/1 Close Bro

50p E/W Heinz 5.7pts

Total bet 25.7pts and hoping for at least one winner to get my money back 6 winners would be a plus.

Also

Glen Rocco 2pts win 25/1 ultima


Will back Min if it runs ryanair but other than that I am done..

Total layout for cheltenham

142 pts

Lost 17 points so far on the two NR's above.. but have some great prices on, AB, Tiger, Sir, BoD, LiT, and a few others so hopefully I will not be crying too hard in my pint come Friday nights..

Good Luck all...
