Cheltenham 2020 - Ante post bets

Good luck with that they’re a pain to deal with these days. I’ve asked for several horses adding to markets and told no as they’re unlikely to run

I tried to get OK Corral added to the Gold Cup market but gave up trying. It used to be easy back in the day when the had a thread on the forum for ante post.

That’s exactly what I’m talking about. Now you have to go through a betfair dictator first.
I’ve just sent them a list of gold cup horses to be added let’s see how many I get....(including ok corral and samcro)
 
Ok Corral is a wild one isn't he FM?

Championship pace, up the hill will be a struggle based on him pathetic 4 miler attempt...


Ryanair sort more likely?
 
Wow I got 6/7 added this time it must be a different person working this evening :triumphant:
 
Wasn't sure where best to place this but....

Mark Howard's "One Jump Ahead 19/20" is now available to purchase online!
(No, I am not Mark Howard!)

It has been my 'start of season' bible for the last few seasons and well worth the £10.99 :encouragement:

Cheers Leman - that'll be the best £11 I'll spend this month.
 
Tamworth with enda Bolger ?
Imagine if that turns up against tiger ?

I was hoping for a wild price on the exchanges. It takes a bit of imagination to think he'd be a Gold Cup horse but I still think he's a talented beast.

I'm completely ignoring the 4 mile run. He's much better than that.
 
Yeah, I've not forgiven him yet but I'll reset my mind over three next week after I rewatch the lot.

Working from memory at the moment
 
One of my favourite (and most useful) threads on here last year was a "most likely winners" thread. Can't wait for that to resurface this year. Looks like a good half dozen races already have a pretty short list IMO.
 
Recently added Carefully Selected 25/1 for the NHC, expecting him to surely set-off one of the favourites come March if he races there. Also added Malone Road any race boosted on WH to just over 13s, I'm pretty sure he will be in the Supreme but I'm trying to utilise the any race market a bit more with the novices this year as I haven't used it as much as I could've last year and we all know the shuffling that tends to come. Again thoughts are he could quite easily turn up as a favourite come March, and we all know how easily he won his bumper.

One I am looking to add shortly NR.

May have been wise to leave le richebourg out, but hope he gets there for you, and all the best with your bet.
 
Fair enough. Couldn't work out how to do the images so figured a link wouldn't hurt.

Soft spot for le Richebourg... Probably a mistake but fingers crossed. Hey ho. :-)
 
I think he means with Le Richebourg possibly missing the season due to injury.

Unsure if you are aware, but if so apologies.
