  • tickets just turned up for Tuesday, Club enclosure and Champions Walk restaurant.....nice, can't wait !
  • betfair preview was a bit crap, nice setting as in the executive bit at emirates so a decent cash bar - although steep punk ipa £6.20!! guinness out of a can £4.80. 

    could not hear much, was sitting in front of the owners of paisley park who were v keen on his chances. 

    couple of decent price boosts 

    delta work 3/1 max bet £50
    paisley park 5/2 max bet £50
    bvd 11/4 max bet £50
    sir erec max bet £50

    there offer this year is back a horse at sp of 3/1 + and get a free bet of same value max bet £50.00

    issue was it was a panel consisting of paul nicholls, gordon elliot, joeseph o brien, olly murphy - who are all trainers so only really tipped there own horses, and most are faves anyway, paul nicholls did not say much and just looked like he did not want to be there. 

    couple of freebies the racing post guide which is 14.99 usually for free and a few pens. 

    only ones i could get were the naps of the festival for each panelist.

    paul keally - glen forsa arkle 
    paul nicholls - magic saint 
    joeseph o brien - delta work 
    olly murphy - dallas des pictons
    gordon elliot - sir erec or tiger roll when asked for one of his own
    gary o brien - defi du seuil - jlt 
    barry orb betfair - lakeview lad - ultima 


    off to the ganleys pub in morden one tonight where the panel consists of


    mick fitzgerald
    dicky johnson
    noel fehily 
    luke harvey

    Thanks for this @palarsehater.

    I use to work with Barry Orr. That's all I'm prepared to say about him. Would like to have heard what Gary O'Brien has to say as he is excellent but the likes of Nicholls, Elliot and O'Brien have their own interests to protect so are never likely to give too much away - owners such as JP McManus and O'Leary would have them castrated if they gave away any of their handicap sleepers.

    Paul Kealy will probably be OK tonight but I'd like to be there to listen to Fitzgerald (to count up the number of cliches he comes out with) and Harvey simply because he is such a self proclaimed buffoon - and lives up to it too!
  • only horse that was slated by anyone was ok corrall who kealy said has no chance, should not be a favourite and wont last the trip
  • Great stuff @palarsehater - cheers.
  • More confused as they all seem to go for different horse in every race, like its teed up for people to bet on as many as possible. Just my interpretation of the minutes/ write up. 
  • @johnnybev1987 have done a preview for the last 4 years, attended betbright last few years but company no longer exists and last year was a joke rich ricci didnt turn up let it be a free bar and of course everyone was hammered and just being dickheads. 

    i prefer a panel with jockeys as opposed to trainers as they do have different opinions. 

  • Sounds like a decent eve still , although hard to read who is reliable and not. Ill stick to you guys for tips :)

    Sam Turner and Andy Holding are both worth listening too (unless Sam is droning on and on and on about his beloved Wolverhampton Wanderers!!).

  • Hope Fehily doesn't know something I don't re Allaho - I got the nod from Ruby* that he's riding him for the Albert Bartlett, and apparently has a phenomenal chance in that race. Took 20s at the time and he's now half that.

    *obviously not directly. But it got to me from a guy I really respect involved with Ruby. Hopefully not a red herring.
  • Nobody let a certain Robert M. see this, but Discorama is currently 12/1 win any race with a certain online company who have nothing to do with this message board, and is 7/1 max elsewhere... Definite mistake. Get on.

    Too late, I've seen it!

    Yes, all the others are making a definite mistake!

    Cracking value as always from the top boys!

  • Skybet offer seems crazily good. Basically a free £20 bet each day on the first race?
  • That’s been their standard Cheltenham offer for the last few years I think. One of the few bookies to still be giving their punters anything worthwhile.

    I’m looking at you Ladbrokes with your £1 per day free bet.
  • I’ve used the SkyBet offer the last couple of years, pretty sure it used to be money back as a free bet though and this year it’s cash so even better.
  • Sky bet restricted my bets after a week and within 5 weeks was pointless trying to place a bet with them.
