Throw up your tips here.........................

Paddy power are doing money back if 2nd 3rd or 4th to the winner in the Supreme Novices Hurdle which kicks the festival off on Tuesday. A bit of a minefield event, but still a great offer. I've gone for Vautour as I reckon it's the most likely to finish in the top 4 and has a good chance of winning.

Also reckon that Annie Power will beat Big Bucks in the World Hurdle.

Some stats to help those not using the magic pin. Almost peanutsmalloyish.

    Agree with your Annie Power shout

    Need to have a proper look this weekend, but also fancy Our Connor in the Champion Hurdle and not a massive fan of his, but can't see Bobs Worth getting beat in the Gold Cup.

    Will be there on Tuesday, haven't really looked properly yet but will be having the Mullins horse Vautour in the supreme, and probably MTOY in the Champ Hurdle

    Agreed on Annie power, if you open a Betfair account and use the promotion code ZEP501 you can get Hurricane Fly at an enhanced price of 5/1 max £10 bet

    My Missus is looking to get into gambling for Cheltenham this year-even though she lives in the same house and shares the same bank account, can she open a Coral account, even with me having one already?

    I've liked Our Conor for the CH ever since he demolished the field in last years triumph, and I am not going to desert him now. Difficult to see Bobs Worth getting beat in the GC although not great value at around 7/4.

    Wouldn't back against the fly. Mullins and Ruby unusually positive about him.

    I have always rated Jezki but he aint been able to live with the fly, i fancy the fly big time, i am also gonna have a bet on val solido. He's a Mullins horse aint run since 21st of Dec but jumps so fluently. Fancy Ballycasey, think Sire De Grugy will get beat, backed him last time he ran at Cheltenham and run a stinker. Irving looks a good thing, and Del arca (David Pipe) run a cracker last time he ran at Cheltenham. Think big Bucks will strip fitter following his comeback run, Annie Power is a massive danger but think her inclusion will give Big Bucks's price massive value.

    The irish will smash annie power up, she'll go off 5/4 - 1/1 on the day. Fill your boots now. Briar Hill will go Albert Bartlett, talk of the Neptunes as Faugheen was doubtful but he'll go there. Keep on the right side of Mullins and Ruby is no. 1 at Cheltenham, trust me. The 5/4 on top trainer/top jockey is huge value. They got a potential 4 fold on the first day

    LOL.
    It's a hurdle actually Chief and, though he's not JP McManus' or Henderson's most obvious chance in the race and not on most punters' radar screens, he could surprise.
    I had a nibble yesterday at 50/1 e/w (NRNB with Victor). A son of Asian Maze and Presenting he will relish the step up to 21 furlongs and the drying ground. Was far from disgraced behind Irving and Amore Alato last time (staying on 3rd) and if he doesn't figure it will be because he wants even further and this is a seriously competitive race but at 50/1 he's well worth a small interest IMO.

    PS Cheers for the stats-link Abs...............and I thought I had a problem :o)

    Peanuts - yep, also tempted with Corals NRNB 50-1 today AND £5 free bet match offer currently running on any Cheltenham race. Makes sense.

    Tony McCoy's little 7 month old boy Archie is in hospital, he underwent heart surgery yesterday ... I am sure that we all wish Archie and his family all the very best and a swift recovery (though not all the best to jockey McCoy in the races in which he is matched against any of my choices !) ... ((:>)

    AP now to ride Triolo d'Alene (said to be flying at home) in the GC - enough for me. Taken 14/1 with BetVic e/w.

    Champion Hurdle: OUR CONNOR WIN

    Neptune: RED SHERLOCK WIN
    RSA: CORRIN WOOD E/W
    CORAL CUP: VENDOR E/W
    Cross Country: BALTAZHAR KING WIN

    World Hurdle: ANNIE POWER WIN NAP
