Cheltenham 2020 - Ante post bets

Scooby91 said:
Yes
Got to a point where I'm not comfortable risking when I have dependants now. I took a calculated risk this year which luckily paid off. But people around me personally (other than my Mrs,) would think I'm absolutely nuts if they'd seen the ammount of money I'd been betting, regardless of the returns. I won't risk losing more than 10% of that now.

I will likely place some selective lower stakes bets for chelt next year post Christmas. Which I'll obviously hope to make a profit on. but as much for entertainment purposes.
Nothing beats backing a winner at chelt regardless of the stake.

....absolutely the right approach. I’m chuffed you have priorities in life. Racing as a pastime is great fun, and i’m sure you’ll enjoy bringing those stakes down and having a little interest. Stick to the limits you set, and enjoy looking after those ‘dependents’.

Hope you still Post and share with us with the analysis and knowledge you have.

Congratulations on your ‘life changing’ returns and I hope you and your family enjoy it. If you’re still having to get up in the night you can still delve into the French form book:) Good luck
 
Fair play Scooby; your knowledge would certainly be missed on here specially of the juvenile/novice hurdlers
 
Added the DDS Ryanair and LIT gold cup double
 
Scooby well done and thanks for your generous contributions here.
 
Not Cheltenham but WH are 14-1 Santini for the Hennessy..... that’s a very big price
 
Skybet have the any race market already..

Has it been nominated as a target?

They haven't (that I've seen) but it's surely the race for him. He won't be targeting Kempton on Boxing Day, so little point going to Haydock either.

The Hennessy will suit him down to the ground imo.
 
With regards requesting horses to be added to the any race market, how easy is this to do and how long does it usually take to be added?
Sky are normally poor with there AR prices when do WH normally put there’s up
 
Once you tweet them they usually have it up sharpish enough but the odds will stink. For example I saw someone on Twitter request Santini for the Hennessy and they got given 6/1, whereas Hills have 14/1.
