Chelt'num Festival

[Bob's Orange]

Fucking Penhill won again!

Didn’t back it! Balls

[derbystfc]

Ahh balls

[Chubbs]

please tell me you put a bet on

[Batch]

woot woot. 50p on mwhahahahaha

[Bewster]

Boom !!

[The Artist Formerly Known as Audrey]

What a day! 5/1 and 12/1 winners.

Movewiththetimes next.

[Bob's Orange]

At last a winner. Laurina wins by miles and I think my ew chance Cap Soleil nicked second.

In other good news I had £1 ew on Penhill in another account!

[Bewster]

I had Penhill, Splash of Ginge e/w and Laurina

Sadly I had some £10  free bets which all lost so the winning were on my rather puny stakes.

Any win is better than nothing my friend!

[Pax Romana]

What a day! 5/1 and 12/1 winners.

Excellent, well done!

Very similar experience to me except for the bit about the 5/1 and 12/1 winners.

Just arrived home pissed and chastened.  Unbelievably Laurina has single-handedly kept me just above even for the festival to-date. 

And tomorrow is going to be the day of my dreams.

Well sorry you lot, I didn't post any tips and then missed the first race as was doing something called work supposedly. However, had a fairly good day when I got round to it.
 The below screenshot was my suggestions to a mate for a L15 and a 4fold (both e/w). I put small stakes on as like Pax I was not feeling confident. Think my mate was slightly more confident and did £1 e/w on the L15. 

On top of this "result" I also told him to back;

2.50
Balko Des Flos
&
Un De Sceaux
Combination Forecast: Won

3.30 I offered;
Penhill
Supasundee
&
Sam Spinner
Trifecta: Lost by one; 1st, 2nd, 5th

4.10 said;
The Storyteller
King's Socks
&
Guitar Pete
Trifecta: Lost; 1st, 5th, 6th

4.50 told him;
Cap Soleil
Laurina
&
Countister
Trifecta: Lost; 1st, 2nd, 5th

5.30 offered;
Squouateur
Missed Approach
&
Final Nudge
Trifecta: Lost; 1st, 3rd & 9th

All of these were done pretty much on the fly/ad hoc. He seems to think I pick a few out so was offering me 15% of any potential winnings. So a fairly good day for myself and obviously him.

Quite, you can take the ones above with a pinch of salt (it's quite feasible that I've made this shit up), which is fine. I guess it'd be pretty pointless though if I did tbh. However the screenshot was 1 winner and 3 places.

My total tips equalled selecting;

6 Winners
5 Places
3 Near misses
&
1 No hope

Considering this was meant to be a quiet day, it was pretty successful. Some good overlaps from Pax, BO & AB. Nice one lads. Personally my form has improved each day at Cheltenham this year. Have I hit the limit today? Or is there more in the tank? Mulling over the selections tonight as got an easy day tomorrow so plenty of chances to throw all the profits away tomorrow!

Was pretty much Elliott's and Russell's day today. Will it be Henderson's day tomorrow? We'll soon find out I guess.

Good luck fellas.

Brilliant result Bamboo, top work!

Let’s hope we can finish today off in style!

I'm going for Apples Shakira in the 1.30.

My tips don't lie 

I'll get my coat.................................

[Pax Romana]

Yes indeed, well done Mr Shoe.  Put my miserable selections to shame.

Unbelievably my daughter has just thought to mention to me this morning that her Bristol-based tipster colleague is actually a Swindon fan.  You'd have thought he'd have come up with Penhill yesterday on that basis.

Still a huge £4.13 up overall to my surprise.  I'm keeping the faith for day 4 but publishing on here simply to give anyone who is interested a list of donkeys to avoid.

1.30 Apples Shakira  win
2.10 A Hare Breath  e/w
2.50 Chef Des Obeaux win   &  Callett Mad e/w
3.30 Road to Respect e/w
4.10 Wonderful Charm e/w
4.50 Diese Des Bieffes e/w
5.30 Vaniteux e/w

Good luck to all.

I’ve been lucky enough that my Wednesday and Thursday winnings have paid for today’s bets. So it’s all in with my remaining fund. Unfortunately a lot of my picks are totally different to yours Pax but I wish you luck. My picks to follow shortly.
