Cheltenham 2020 - Ante post bets

I’ve jumped the gun there, but she certainly isn’t a Champion Hurdle horse
 
I’m over at the festival next year on the Friday for my stag doo so will probably be the biggest drunken mess in the Cotswolds, anyway have added a Midnight Run & TOTG Friday stag double to my singles on both. Hoping for a doo to remember :very_drunk:

Be rude not to Kev can’t desert him after he’s made such a considerable donation to the wedding kitty already!

Currently weighing up whether to stay in Cheltenham or as near as possible with the party or would we be better off commuting in from Birmingham or somewhere similar. That’s what I’ve done on previous visits. Any advice from the regulars would be welcome?

Ive got my Million in mind new horse parade start of August if anyone has anything they want to know, fire away and ill do my best. Personally im interested in Nickys Birchdale so im going to try and find out if hes going chasing and to try and see if they can rule out two miles, which should leave the JLT!!!

LOvely stuff mate. I had my stag do on the Friday - one of my fondest memories is me getting everyone to pool our money and bang it on Martello Tower in the Bartlett and watching him do the business while smoking a cigar as my mates went nuts

How many are heading over Sean? 21 Club is where you need to be on the Friday if you can get in the guest list.

Two more JP horses with Nicky if you get chance Billy -
Dickie Diver - assume he's an absolute given to go chasing and the further the better for him?
Champagne Platinum - any thoughts on the Punchestown run (good or bad). Chasing the plan? And likely trip? Thought he could be an Arkle contender but his run LTO maybe suggested he lacked the pace at the top level unless there were excuses?

And being greedy -
If there's any mention of Kildisart whilst there? Ladbrokes Trophy the main aim this Winter?

If you could ask about OK Corral I'd appreciate it Billy. Is the Hennessy the plan?

I'm very interested in Dickie Diver for the National Hunt Chase, looks a stayer and JP does like a dart in there so certainly would expect him to potentially be turning up there, think I've only seen it priced up on 365 at 25/1 so far

About 15 going over at the minute FM. Cheers for the suggestion but don’t think exclusive plush spots like 21 club will be suitable for a bunch of drunken Irish chancers. Might get to meet one or two of you for a pint on course I’d imagine we’ll be in club.

If Labaik is fit & back on track BC there’s every chance the fluro orange will be spotted from afar :highly_amused: Jim Carey in Dumb & Dumber style attire, I wonder would the on track bookies take IOU’S :devilish:
