Cheltenham 1st 2 days

[gwru]

Kempo know you prefer the flat but this is in overall betting turnover the biggest race meeting of the year. Think there's around at least 5 races in the the top 10 of races with the highest betting turnover of the year.

Tomorrow 2 tips one will win

1-30 Min no betting up at present, could get 2-1
3-30 Annie Power showing 9-4 at William Hills

Depending how 1st 2 selections go regarding stake

Weds

Double

1-30 Yanworth
3-30 Un De Sceaux
Combining the prices you could get almost Evens for them both.

In the words of the car ad, you do the maths.

Min & Annie Power both 9-4 with William Hills. Better than expected. Never bet till non-runner no bet, usually on the day. Only problem is Willie Mullins has had the winner of opening race of this meeting for the last 3 years, law of averages says it can't go on for ever. Looking at opposition to Annie Power can't see any but its a mare, how many filly's have won the Derby?

Is there a runner called Out Sam running in any of the races?

A friend keeps banging on about it, just wondered if it was any good.

[stodgy]

runs tomorrow 8-1 fav at moment against my fancy holywell good luck.

Not much of a horses man tbh

1:30 Altior - similar level of form to Min, but the Mullins factor means Altior looks the value bet.
2:10 Douvan - can't oppose him, but I'll be betting on the 'without the favourite' market.
2:50 Out Sam - inexperienced but progressive. Also a small reverse forecast bet with Holywell.
3:30 My Tent Or Yours - in the hope Henderson will have him somewhere near his best.
4:10 Polly Peachum - not entirely convinced by Vroum Vroum Mag so 13/2 appeals more than evens.
4:40 Southfield Royale - 4 miles could see him at his best.
5:30 Amore Alato (e/w) - better than his form figures suggest, 25/1 looks a big price.

Watched Morning line, Jimbo Mcgrath wasn't on. Tom Segal don't like his tips, once in a while he'll get a decent price winner but yr more likely to run out of money following him waiting for that winner.

Min not as sure now having seen Altior win last time. Annie Power wouldn't go big on it, Identity Thief danger.

But will be best racing seen since Chelt' Gold cup day last year.

Dermot Weld does well with the few novices he sends over ,so had a small eachway interest in silver concorde in first race 18-1.
