RFC55 108,733 Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 It really is a toughie this year. Sprinter sacre is a certainty baring an accident. I like the look of both simonsig and overturn but don't know which one I'd go for.Think ill need t wait till nearer the time tbh Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dangerous at 8/11 , 4/6. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RFC RYAN 2,967 Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 Someone asked Paul Nicholls if someone gave him £100 to bet what would he put it on and says this. PN: As of today i would have £50 eachway on Tricky Trickster in the Fox Hunters at 20/1. He also said the prices on his horses are about right.

Scott-RFC 308 Posted February 27, 2013 Author Share Posted February 27, 2013 Only 2 horses aged 8 or over have won the Arkle since 1960.Overturn is 9.I love trends!There have only been three horses older than eight-years-old that have won the Champion Hurdle since 1951.Hurricane Fly is 9.

Scott-RFC 308 Posted February 27, 2013 Author Share Posted February 27, 2013 Would be interested to hear any opinions on Oscar whisky?Seems to exude class for 4/5ths of the race and then doesn't get there, but they always have excuses for it. Does it stay 3m or not? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does it stay 3m or not?The form of rev de sivola is fantastic just now and they seem to have the key on how to run it. It kept running second or 3rd to big bucks but now he's out the way he seems to be number 1. I'd say one of the Irish horses may gave him the most to do.

Scott-RFC 308 Posted March 2, 2013 Author Share Posted March 2, 2013 I have simonsig, sprinter sacre and long run ew treble. Got 7/1 two weeks back, dropped to about 4.5/1 now.Long Run is still 7/1 himself ???The giant bolster is being banded about an awful lot as a live outsider for the gold cup. Can't have that at all. Not got the class to win a GC imo, and only ran into 2nd last year in a poor renewal. Betting for ew money if you back it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RFC55 108,733 Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 Lads in the first race tommorow a horse called Cheltenian runs. It won the champion bumper at the festival 2 years back and only had its first run in 2 years at Doncaster a few weeks back and ran an absolute stormer. It was beaten by a nose by one of Nicky Hendersons and if that run has got rid of the rustiness 25/1 is a huge price tommorow in the first. Im having a few quid ew on that.

And is Cheltenham affected by the snow?The champion bumper was a grade one, but the last race was a novices hurdle but im sure Hendersons horse is running during the week.I dont think Cheltenian will beat the fav but 25s is too big imo Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott-RFC 308 Posted March 11, 2013 Author Share Posted March 11, 2013 Im going for Zarkander but I think it will be so tight between the top 3, and apparently someone from the Henderson yard has a substantial bet on Binocular... Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RFC RYAN 2,967 Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 I wonder what AP McCoy will show up. This is what put me off My Tent or yours, doesn't have a great record on short favs. I fancy Zarkander also. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
