Cheltenham Festival tips

Cheers mate.

SkyBet originally had it at 9/2, but with their best odds guaranteed, it changed to 6/1

Lovely start
Thanks for the free bet spot.did the exactly same bet!Betway do money back in £10 1st and last race also.
 
£20 on Real Steel in the first
All logic out the window now - have money on a horse called Posh Trish because I’m mates with a bird called Trish and a big outsider Western Approach as my father was in the merchant navy.
What could possibly go wrong?
 
Had £ 5.00 ew on 2.10 Chelt Aspen Colorado at 40/1

Do like Jonjo horses and hopefully the operation on his wind problem will put him right for a place at least no weight to carry a big plus for me

Been an awlful Cheltenham for me so far .....

£10 on Sire Du Berlais @ 7/2 in the 1:30

£5 on a Sire Du Berlais & Lostintranslation forecast @ 17/1, same as above

£10 on Paisley Park @ 6/4 in the 3:30

Who you thinking for the Gold Cup? I can’t see past Native River (although my knowledge of horse racing isn’t that great)
 
He says picking out a forecast!!!
If it rains overnight then Native River but if not then it’s wide open.
Hope this helps.

Haha, honestly it’s more luck than judgement.

But if you think that’s lucky, I swear this on my own life, about 5-6 years ago, I picked out a £1 EW reverse trio for the Grand National.

I actually ended up getting 1st & 3rd. The horse that let me down finished 4th or 5th. Even for a nicker, I’m convinced it would have paid thousands. I went on about it for weeks to anyone who’d listen haha.

Pure luck of course, but made me look like I knew what I was doing.
