Chelters 2016 Antepost bets

Ptit Zig was well beaten when he fell so if the handicapper takes his run against Vautour at face value TD will be carrying 15stone in the National

:) Tommo was impressed though :sorrow:

So where do we stick Triole D'Alene, travelled like a dream and won as he liked, impressive after more than a year off, does he enter the Gold cup picture

I am pretty sure he is a novice over hurdles. Albert Bartlett ;)
 
I've got an acca of American Pharoah (already won), Min, Douvan, Faugheen and Annie Power for 2.5k...

Had no luck with Annie Power the past two years so cue an apperance in the World Hurdle to scupper this year!

Getting a little excited now with this bet...

:D With some of the Gold cup hopefulls he wouldn't look out of place but he'll probably be kept for the Nash, if he were in the Mullins yard he'd be in everything from the Supreme to the Grand Annual, they'd probably get him a dodgy birth certificate and a set of boobs so they could put him in the triumph and the 2 mares races

Very true! It makes it all the better that it was a £5 free bet from Skybet!
 
The latest horse I've started to put in multiples is Blue Hell in the county. Supposedly goes straight for the race after winning impressively lto. The form of the race is looking good with 2 next time out winners from 3 runners. The runner up Diamond King runs this afternoon. Obviously unsure what our handicapper will make of it but he should get a mark in the low 140's.

It's not everyone's cup of tea getting involved with the handicaps this early but I can't help myself!!

Diamond King won nicely and BH's price has been cut as a result. After doing some digging, BH was entered for the Lanzarote and given a mark of 141. His trainer seems happy with the mark and is targeting the County Hurdle. I've topped up my bets.

Cheers FM, will look to include that somewhere, I have a liking for the look of Special Tiara in the QM so will probably start with a nice ew double
 
I like ST in the Champion Chase too and I'm determined to take on the front three in the market. He seems the obvious one to me and the better the ground the better his chance, which can't really be said about UDS and SS.

Guys, I know ive mentioned this many times in the past, so just another heads-up. Always look out for a Mullin's horse(2014 & 2015 plots by Wicklow Bloodstock) in the County! I don't see the WB with any plots this year but AF and WB where clear as day and I managed to back them early at 14's and 33's.

This year could be a Ricci horse? maybe Renneti or Max Dynamite?

Can anyone spot a plot this year??

I normally wouldnt bet on the County until the day of the race. BH trained in right country - Nicholls is only GB trainer to win the county in a decade. Fleming is doing exceptionally well with Connells horses and seems to have improved lots of them. At 25s I shouldnt really quibble but Id have a niggle that something will be more well in than BH in off 141 ?

Max Dynamite could only finished 4th last year of 137 ( went off 14/1 with Ruby up). LRs angle is def one to keep in mind. The first 6 home last year were trained in Ireland 4 of them by Mullins. I though Bacchasson might have one more ( bad) run and be the one but I probably couldnt even get the winner with 5 picks on the day never mind now :grumpy:

Was also on Wicklow brave at 33-1

Will be keeping an eye on it again, initial thought was renetti

Min 25-1 douvan 3-1 double is my main bet this year!

:sorrow::eek:when did you put that on roose ?

I think August/September maybe. I was about 2 weeks too late to get the 50s on min. Also got them in a treble with limini.

I like to bet way in advance, got 126-1 on douvan champion chase, Augusta Kate mares novice hurdle double for next year!

Maybe back the Mullin's horse Ruby is not riding?

Max Dynamite took his career to another level on the flats, his turn of foot began to look deadly. If he can transfer this back over Chelt/hurdles he is a player.
