Chelters 2016 Antepost bets

A silly bet today:

Thistlecrack (WH), Douvan (A), Min (SP), Yanworth (NP), Un de Sceaux (QM) to win, Bristol de Mai (JLT) and Don Cossack (GC) to place = 90/1

Your thoughts...
 
Also: Min (any), Limini (any), Douvan (A), UDS (CC), Yanworth (NP), Thistlecrack (WH) all win, Cue Card (GC) to place = 110/1
 
Do you reckon I should wait for nrnb with these. A Hare Breath coral cup, Uknowhatimeanharry performs,Tenor Nivernals Brown Advisory Plate.Kim Muir Bless The Wings. Or should I place the bets now.

I'm only a £20-50 man myself, so don't mind throwing early arrows if I have an indication that's where they're going.

Anything I'm being brave with, I like to be guaranteed a run for my money, lol.
 
What did everyone think of Minnella Rocco yesterday? That run probably puts his handicap mark up a few lbs and it was already 143.

I wonder if they'll go RSA as I'm not sure he'll stay 4 mile.

I thought he did his best work at the end. The Ultima or Irish National could be other possibilities. Jonjo likes both races.
 
Yesterday's run will probably put him up to at least 148 which might force their hand and go for a graded race.

Ran a cracking race FM.
Could it be that he prefers to go right handed or is better on flatter tracks ?
I know he has a Newbury win on his CV but yesterdays win was arguably his best performance since.
His maiden win came at Kempton, well down the field that day was Nicholls Rock on Oscar and that one gave Newsworthy a 10l beating at Donny a couple of weeks ago.
Does Cheltenham really suit or would they better off waiting for Aintree ?

Worth a couple of quid Coney
 
Funnily enough I was Thinking about this exact same bet yesterday but couldn't see prices. Which bookies was this with?

PaddyPower. The selections initially can't be combined, but the traders gave me the quote a few days ago.
 
So I've gone for a bit of an audacious one... Covered the following from 4 folds upwards, all Each Way. Was hoping for some value in the championship races, not expecting them all to win, but the place would be great.

Identity Thief (Champion Hurdle NRNB) @ 5/1
Special Tiara (Champion Chase NRNB) @ 14/1
Cole Harden (World Hurdle NRNB) @ 8/1
Don Cossack (Gold Cup NRNB) @ 9/2
Garde Le Victoire (Arkle) @ 16/1
Polly Peachum (Mares Hurdle) @ 7/1

What's everyone's thoughts?

good luck:encouragement: - even though i joined the glv jlt thing on here.
 
Minella Rocco left on 143, odds plunge from 14/1 to 8/1 for the 3m handicap on Day 1.

I've added him into the day 1 Ricci accumulator with Douvan, Min & VVM.
