BEST of the BETS

I bet its not the fav.

I bet its not the winner either!!

so why cant you post it we make are own minds up win lose or draw

no somewere else they were shouting about hewick at 66/1 ages now 20/1 but would not want soft ground

Hewicks going for the national that's it's main target . And gambler I looked at your pathetic effort yesterday in the comp rather dismal wouldn't you say . And busty be patient go through the race and you might fancy one. Anyway it's a few week away and I'm hoping the horse makes it.

If my memory serves me right, peregrine hasn't got a bad track record on here. Don't get what's happened over the last couple of years on here. Surprised anyone posts any more.

Cheers eeza I will be posting more but I have probs with bookies round here they have a traffic light system IE anyone good will be on it. They don't like winning punters . Easy to get bets on just let other folk do for you .

Name that horse Mr P.

Bravemansgame on e/way could have done without the rain but if Mr Nicholls takes it out its non runner money back. Noticed money piling on a plus tard . And that was the one I backed last year. Still bravemansgame won on soft at kempton . And it's beat a few in this field and I'd be hopeful it takes care of them again. Good luck to you all on your selection .

Bit baffled of some of Paul Nicholls runners at this meeting in particular Hermes Allen. The horse that won today youwearitwell was buried by Hermes at sandown . Looked like it had been got at ! Will they nobble bravemansgame ?

Conflated will give a good account of himself......at a price :up:

Its a trappy Gold Cup if you want to take the fav on. If you like the fav then I think you are not bothered by anything else, but 9 of 11 runs below 3m does bother me. He might just be too classy for them, but I'm looking for a horse that needs 3m+ to be seen to best effect.

Im going with NOBLE YEATS ew @ 12/1 (4 places). A horse getting little coverage on the preview circuit but hes a proper staying chaser, jumps for fun and has a turn of foot. The last run was slightly disappointing behind Ahoy Senor but he was staying on well and the extra furlong is to his advantage. He could be a horse that saves his best for Aintree as he showed in December when he beat Ahoy Senor and Dashel Drasher over 3m, showing a blinding turn of foot between the last 2 fences to win impressively and if he is in that sort of form I think he is a serious player.

The other out and out stayer is Stattler, but I think he is very one paced and I think the race would have to completely fall apart for him to win. A Plus Tard has an obvious chance if back to his best and the team are having a good week. Bravemansgame has been impressive this season but I think he could be brilliant or blow out so does not appeal as an ew bet over Noble Yeats. Sounds Russian is a strong fancy of Andy Holdings and at 33/1 if you can get 4 or 5 places its a solid bet.

Boring but I'm on the 3 top market (largish) and smaller win bet on a plus tart (means 'see ya') en francaise.

Everyones a winner ! No flukes there, great performance from 2 of the top 3 in the betting. Surprised at the tactics on Noble Yeats trying to stay with the pace early instead of riding a hold up race, but probably would not have finished better than 3rd anyway.

Just watched it no complaints profit on the each way 8/1 so happy as it's our best chaser just outstayed fair and square by the winner

I think a return for Shiskin next year and if conditions suit could be a Gold Cup contender.

I was on Galopin Des Champs, Bravemansgame and Protektorat all Antepost so better prices than the day , so had what I thought could happen covered.

On the day I have to say I was drawn heavily in favour of Galopin Des Champs and had some of the generous super boost price of 9/4 Bet365 had offered as well as a bit more on the exchanges.
