Cheltenham 2025

[Kippax Street 1880]

It don’t get the people like Punchestown which is 20 minute drive away. They only fill it or gets busy for the classic races well our Irish Classic races.

Yeah they love the jumps in Ireland. Will be rammed this year Punchestown festival for the Constitution Hill State Man rematch no doubt! Weird how the Curragh isn't as popular, seems to be priced fairly and the racing is always good.

Mullins winner again. I had the second horse each way it’s progress.

 

[Deepest Blue]

Brighton owner Tony Bloom owned the winner of the first today. Let's hope his weekend is spoiled tomorrow.

 

[Kippax Street 1880]

Come on the boy Galopin my stomachs in knots and I've not even bet in the race. Go and achieve immortality but please most of all come back safe and sound.

And the bookies clean up again

Gallopin never really looked settled from the off for me. Then once that horse fell and pushed it wide it just didn’t do it any favors and always looked second best.

I'd love to know if anyone is up after this festival. Bookies have cleaned up

Yep, looked miles off it, makes me happy as I caught myself on and didn't go nuts deep on it

JP Mcmanus is.

Fucking gutted but at least he's home safe and sound.

Yeah I left this one well alone to be fair. Not that I thought it would lose, just didn’t feel the need to risk a chunk on it at those odds. Bookies will be needing extra suitcases for all the cash they are taking home.

 

[Ashton Moss Messi]

Had the 1-2 in the forecast, unfortunately I didn't do the reverse and only bet 2-1
Paid £17.10 as well
Down on the week but don't bet what you can't afford to lose
Will spend as much as I lost this week on a few pints later

Not sure about Corbett's Cross though, hope he's fine

Unfortunately he passed away :(. Must take the shine off it a bit for JP.

 

[leighton]

I'm down for the week. Never known it so bad huge priced winners daily. It will be the best festival for a long time with the winners for some smaller yards which is always great to see. Roll onto Punchestown for me

 

[bluealf]

And the bookies clean up again

Yup, cleaned me up anyway

I got the last two winners up so over the festival I am up a tenner. Doesn't exactly scare the bookies though LOL

It's impossible to make a fortune mate, how the fuck do you pick a winner out of most of these races when there's 20 plus runners going

 

[blue cigar]

Had a great day there today, well in front but had a fortune on GDC, not sure if it lost too much ground when it was carried to the right but seemed to be beat fair and square, so be it, Willie Mullins won me a good few quid today, the man is a genius.

 

[bluealf]

I ended up around £130

Only one of my Tipser horses won but my 2nd choices did ok

 

[supercity88]

Ended up with £30 more in my pocket than I started with thanks to some bets coming in today. With a lot of the favourites missing out I chanced that continuing so got the winner in the Gold Cup and also did a few "to place" bets with higher odds that came in.

Sadly didn't get on the 100-1 winner even though I had chucked a couple of quid on some outsiders for today just in case!
