Moderators PowerButchi Posted March 13, 2018 Moderators Share Posted March 13, 2018 Dear Max, what am I doing today? Â We're all going to Shrewsbury for the day from the pub and I want to look like a sage. E/W value especially valued. Â Cheers, Â Butch..

Max Power Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 It looks tricky today. 1.30 - I've thought Samcro was bombproof all winter but the horses he's beat that ran in the supreme didn't exactly set the world on fire. Maybe the Irish novices aren't up to much? Black Op and Vision De Flos to small stakes- but I'll probably leave alone. 2.10 - Monalee. 2.50 - A proper pin job this. The hardest race of the week. Haven't backed a winner in the Coral Cup since Adam was a lad. It's interesting that Royal Vacation runs here in preference to yesterday and he'll go on the ground. Fix Le Kap ran a shocker last time out but again the ground will help. Henderson has won this before with a failed chased in Spirit River also. 3.30 - Against Altior and Douvan. Altior had an injury scare on Monday and Douvan hasn't run in a year. My dad always says that Cheltenham winners are horses who's season has gone exactly right- you don't regain form here or comeback from injury (Faugheen). If you've had a couple of winners already in the day then climb on Min. Wait till the off because I think his price will drift. Politoluge the danger, unless he gets into a fight for the lead with Special Tiara. 4.10 - No interest. Josies Orders just for a bit of interest. 4.50 - Back anything Paul Nicholls trains. He's had something like 3 winners and 4 seconds from 15 runners over the last 8 years. Act Of Valour will do for me, but he also runs something at 20s who's name I can't remember with Twiston Davies riding. 5.30 - God knows. Joseph O'Brien likes his horse, but I can't remember the name. If in doubt, back something that's won on soft and won in a field of at least 12. Usually that gives you the winner.

Paid Members tiger_rick Posted March 14, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted March 14, 2018 This is more info for today: Ballymore Samcro will win. Apparently its pretty much the best horse at the festival. Duc des genievres as an ew maybe. RSA chase Presenting Percy is a very good horse and likely to win as he did last year.  Dounikos will potentially challenge him. Coral cup Another free for all. No clear winner. Le Breuil, Diamond King and Blue Berry worth e/w bets as the jockeys have done well in this race before. Topofthegame worth a small punt as e/w too. Queen mother chase Altior is beatable they think although its such a quick horse it may be too good. Douvan could be the only one to do it but has been out injured for a year. Charbel worth an e/w bet. Politilogue capable but inconsistent. Cross Country Chase Cause of Causes very likely to win. Won 4 out of last 5 years at the festival. Fred winter Nube negra looks a decent favourite. The King of May potentially e/w. Style De Garde also fancied e/w and has a top jockey. Champion bumper Know the Score best bet as e/w. Acey Milan could win it and also has a great name! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D@mm Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 A lot of people are backing Brahma Bull each way in the first race at Cheltenham. I got it at 20/1 but was 35/1 an hour a go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thevestofdeanambrose Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 I'm on Samcro and Cause of Causes, can't decide between Presenting Percy or Monalee for today's treble! Reading above I see Max Power has gone with Monalee and Tiger Rick with Percy which hasn't helped me decide at all haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Lion_of_the_Midlands Posted March 14, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted March 14, 2018 (edited) I can't be having Altior or Douvan today. Altior was lame 2 days ago and Douvan hasn't run for a year. Min for me.  The rest of mine today are flights of fancy and I won't bother you with them Edited March 14, 2018 by Lion_of_the_Midlands Additional information Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TildeGuy~! Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 (edited) I’m gonna stick £15 on Percy to cover myself I think Edit: Lucky I did. £5 e/w on topofthegame next, SkyBet are paying 6 places for that one Edited March 14, 2018 by TildeGuy~!

Paid Members tiger_rick Posted March 14, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted March 14, 2018 I went with Monalee. Fucking @Max Power! Still in the game because I did e/w but annoyed with myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Lion_of_the_Midlands Posted March 14, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted March 14, 2018 Sounds like Ruby Walsh has broken his leg, and as average a ride as Davy Russell gave Petit Mouchoir yesterday he gave Presenting Percy a cracker today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
