Title: Cheltenham Festival 2011 - TEF Competition
Post by: DMR on Monday, March 14, 2011, 14:30:28
Same as last year chums...

I said I'd do it this year, basically the same rules as last year. 500 Oevils (in honour of his lordship) to spend each day. Win and e/w singles only. Only difference is I'll be watching religiously (Uni 2nd, Chelters 1st this week) so I'm happy for you to take a price if you get your naps in early, if you think it's gonna drift then as usual take the starting price.... PLEASE STATE THE PRICE (I will check) OR SP WHEN STATING YOUR CHOICE, if you nail a 12/1 winner that goes off at 9/2 and you haven't stated so, I'll assume SP.

Please also STATE THE RACE TIME of your picks, as any bets placed once the official start time has elapsed will obviously not count.

Please dont send me all your choices or put them in one thread... please do it on a daily basis, I will start a new thread daily as per last year. If you cant get on here daily, PM your picks as and when.

Good luck all.

I'm got some serious winning to do if I'm going to retain my title.

Got lucky on some 25/1 shots last year. Can't see it happening again.

Post by: Jamiesfuturewife on Tuesday, March 15, 2011, 08:40:52
Yes but I was checking it was OK to put my pick in the other thread today? :)


Title: Re: Cheltenham Festival 2011 - TEF Competition
Post by: Arriba on Tuesday, March 15, 2011, 11:03:07
who's backing what today then?
i'm on all of mine in the oevils competition in the same way i've put them up.not the same amounts staked though.
should be some cracking races today.

i think there could be some value bets in the 4.00 and the 4.40.those two races scream outsiders to me.aint on anything yet though

I've gone for all of my predictions too... it'd annoy me if they came in and i hadn't bothered putting a little bit of cash on them. Also, my bursary cheque arrived yesterday, so with any luck, i can make it grow!

Post by: Arriba on Tuesday, March 15, 2011, 11:14:18
you've got some decent shouts there.
lami carrying too much weight imo though.for that long hard race i am looking down the weights for a decent e/w shout

Also gone on my oevil selections.

Thinking of going for Tullamore Dew in the 17.15 as well.

And the tipster in the RP was raving about Wolf Moon in the 1440, which I don't think anyone on here has gone for as yet.

Post by: LucienSanchez on Tuesday, March 15, 2011, 11:20:35
That had crossed my mind... it was a toss up between l'ami and Poker di Sivola, but i seem to recall him letting me down last year at a meeting

Post by: DMR on Tuesday, March 15, 2011, 13:24:03
Dunguib slaughtered me from the start last year, hope Cue Card can produce this time and give me some play money, got Al Ferof e/w as well.

I've been getting stuck in to Menorah ante-post for a while.
