Pyramid Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 Was 450 down for the week, but a £2 placepot up today narrowed losses to £250 total, ( including £400 loss on ante post ) Cheltenham post mortem. Willie Mullins is killing ante post betting. With it hard to define a definitive target in the novice races. As cometh the day, there is no value at all. Also owners running horses in wrong races, just to have a runner in every race, and trainers not running horses against each other. But hey ho. It is what it is, and it's their horses. Still some good value winners to be had this week. Backing Mullins blind today, would have yielded a 25/1 and 7/1 winner. And most of all good racing, with some breath taking performances. Well done to all winners, and the countdown commences to next year. Best week of the year. Next racing for myself is bangor on dee, on Saturday week. Back to the bread and butter of racing. Can't beat it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nelbo009 Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 Normality returns here tomorrow. Been a great week though. Only 49p down for the week, so can't complain! Definitely going to take some time off next year and head up to the course for at least one of the days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charlie Endell Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 (edited) I've churned through a load of cash to end up exactly even! Betting wise that is - when travel, tickets, accommodation, food and drink are thrown into the equation... Roll on next year.

Fairbairn Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 About 400 quid down for the festival, I've had a shocker. Horses are khunts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scot scotland scottish Posted March 14, 2015 Author Share Posted March 14, 2015 Not long back from Cheltenham and despite not winning a bean I've got to say that was fantastic. Pleasantly surprised actually I don't think I seen anyone who had had far too much to drink. I was fearing that it would be full of drinks with no interest in the racing. But to be fair plenty people in the crowd seemed pretty knowledgeable about the racing. Well organised too. Buses and trains were no problem at all. My horses came nowhere though but that didn't detract from a great day at the races. I only went because I thought it would be a box to tick so to speak, but next year is now in my mind....

Unlike Aintree at the National it's well set up to handle the numbers (a more 'racing' crowd too). I recommend Champion Hurdle day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ally Bongo Posted March 15, 2015 Share Posted March 15, 2015 I didnt really enjoy it this year mainly down to Annie Power's fall at the last on the Tuesday. It should have paid for the whole week for a lot of folk including me which goes well against the grain. Doubt punters will ever be as lucky (or unlucky as the case may be) again but on reflection who is to say the powerhouse that is Willie Mullins wont have a stronger team next year but 4 "shoe ins" on the first day is unlikely. Have to agree with Charlie - the Tuesday is definitely the best day which should be followed by the Friday Think i'll give the Wednesday & Thursday a miss next year Gold Cup day was wasted this year by the change in the weather & going Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
