Cheltenham Festival

It's all a load of Cannonballs in here! This is the virtual Arsenal pub where you can chat about anything except football. Be warned though, like any pub, the content may not always be suitable for everyone.

I’m not renowned for my horseracing knowledge. It basically boils down to “I like the name of that one!” :lol:

But I made a killing in Paddy Powers yesterday.

Had €5 e/w on The Package at 6/1 and he placed so I got back the grand total of €11.50.

But I also had €5 on two horses to place in the 1.30 and 2 to place in the 2.40 at 40/1. It was called the “Pick Them” special or something. I thought “mental odds and you can pick any horses you want – I’m in!” Both placed.

Pocketed €200 there. 8)

On the way out after collecting the €200 I spied “Rock On Ruby” at 12/1 and thought “Why not? I won a couple of quid on Ruby Walsh himself last year” so I put €10 on him to win. He did. Another €120 on the hip. 8)

Then I slapped €10 on Balthazar King to win at 8/1 because the bird with big tits in work picked it too. Sure, why not, Ted - I like tits. 8) 8)

BOOM! Another €80.

And that was my scientific approach! Still, €400 in the pocket. :barscarf:

I did the “Pick Them” special again today for €5 at 50/1.

Also have Ruby Walsh to place in all 6 of his races today at 325/1. Loooooooong shot, I believe... :D

Got 5's on Kauto too, but covered with a reverse forcast with long run.

My tip for rest of today, Kid Cassidy at the 5.15

Festival just over a week away. Not as good as previous years for making easy money. But some nice Matched Betting offers from

Skybet.
Paddy Power.
William Hill.

I expect a few more offers from bookies near the day. Could easily make £300+ over the 4 days. :barscarf: :barscarf:
