    1.30 Montbazon
    2.05 Sprinter Sacre
    2.40 Hold on Julio
    3.20 Hurricane Fly (also Brampour looks very good e/w value)
    4.00 Balthazar King
    4.40 Quevega (Swincombe Flame for an e/w bet)
    5.15 Triolo D'Alene

    I'm told that Paddy Power are refunding all losing Arkle bets if Sprinter Sacre wins.
    Also, Boylesport are refunding on the 1st 4 races 2mor if your horse comes 2nd.
  • haven't picked the last yet

    1.30 Galileo's Choice
    2.05 Cue Card
    2.40 Hold On Julio
    3.20 Rock on Ruby

  • I know nothing about horses but here are my picks:

    1.30 Steps To Freedom
    2.05 Al Ferof
    2.40 Quantitativeeasing
    3.20 Hurricane Fly
    4.00 Sizing Australia
    4.40 Quevega
    5.15 Hunt Ball
  • Took my dad a couple of years ago on Gold Cup day after the heavy winds had taken out the first day. We ended up with 11 races that day and had a brilliant day. Definitely no expert, but have gone for...

    Supreme Novices - Galileo's Choice (Paddy Power offering a free matching bet for Wednesday on this race)

    Then an accumulator of Sprinter Sacre (Arkle), Hurricane Fly (Champion Hurdle) ScotsIrish (Handicap Chase) & Quevega (Mares) - about 25-1

    Arkle - Menorah (PP will refund bet if Sprinter wins)

    JLT - Fruity O'Rooney e/w

    Blimey...feel like I need Gambers Anonymous now!!! ;-)

    Good luck all.
  • where does it say about the matched bet for the supreme mate on PP?
  • edited March 2012
    Sprinter Sacre, Hurricane Fly and Quevega to WIN singles and a treble at just over 5/1

    Boring but I expect to be in profit... more to follow

    Oh and if you are taking Quevega (and who wouldn't, it's the easiest way to take money without holding up your local building society)... if you join Boylesports through Punters Lounge.com and back Quevega to win £20 they will inflate the odds to 6/4 (from 1/2) and give you a £40 free bet.

    Recession, what recession?
  • Got an invite last night, in with the prawn sandwich brigade tomorrow. Looking forward to it, only ever have a flutter on the national normally.

    Not sure how much racing i will see with the champers flowing.
  • where does it say about the matched bet for the supreme mate on PP?
    On the PP app it's one of their MBS Specials (along with the one about Sprinter in the Arkle). If you tap on to tomorrow's racing, it should show the list of races with a big red "MBS" showing against those two races. For the Supreme, it's a free matched bet for Wednesday if placed from your mobile.

    Hope that helps...and you get a winner both days!! :)

  • in relation to nathans post...anyone with a ladbrokes account has probably been given a free fiver bet with no deposit required.
  • Lucky 15 for tomorrow.

    1.30 Steps to Freedom
    2.40 Quantitativeeasing
    3.20 Hurricane Fly
    4.00 Balthazar King

    Like a few outsiders in the first 4 races aswell to do each way.
    1.30 Distant Memories 50-1
    2.05 Menorah 10-1
    2.40 Magnanimity 14-1
    3.20 Zaidpour 33-1
  • If anyone has a betfair account, I think 1 horse to lay this festival is Sprinter Sacre. Dont get me wrong, I have tipped him earlier and he should win, and has potential to be a superstar, but out of all the odds on favourites I think he is most likely to be beaten. As said he potentially could be brilliant, but he is up against 3 very good horses, and at the price I think a lay on him is a good bet
