4 days off work - can't wait to get started.

Hope some of us manage to make it pay.

Been under the weather over the past 2 or 3 days so playing catch in terms of finalising the selections.

Can't have either Kauto Star or Denman for the Gold Cup though.

To my knowledge he hasn't won at Cheltenham in two starts.

4.40 UNITED - bet of the day

2.40 thurs Voy Por Uestades - Bet of the year

Don't forget guys although Cheltenham is the great racing spectacle, there will be money to be had at other racecourses this week due to the same reason.
All the money goes to Cheltenham and people often forget about the racing at other tracks including the bookies sometimes.

Im sure you'll be on the ball

Binocular has only run once at Cheltenham, last years Supreme Novice Hurdle when beaten into second by Captain Cee Bee.

Connections believe that with hindsight the horse hit the front too far out last year and different tactics will be employed today.

Very valid point. There will still be value to be had elsewhere this week.

There is something telling me not to back Cousin Vinny today, these rumors about him not traveling well and not eating are a little worrying and it's jumping is a little dodgy as shown in it's last race.

Fancy Torphichen @ 11/2 for E/W money.

Sorry i thought he had two runs at Cheltenham but i think the hill got the better of him last year, with the rain around and some really good horses in the same race i can see it losing again, 7/4 is also shocking odds.

When Mick Fitzgerald spoke to Mullins yesterday and asked if there was anything in the tales going round about him not travelling or eating well, Mullins told him that he hadn't travelled well, but was just finishing his lunch!

Make of that what you will.

Don't know weather to take this serious or not coming from you.

Honestly. I am lumping on Vinny for the win. Look at his form over this distance and it is frightening, he ditched his jockey last time out but that was to do with the jockey sitting high going over the fences.

Sup Novs Micheal Flips
Arkle - Golden silver e/w
Will Hill - Star De Mohasion e/w
Champ H - Osana win katchit e/w
X-county chase - Garde Champtere
Mares - United

GD LUCK

At last were getting some valid points from you then

3 horses in the race, Kempes 9/1, Merdermit 14/1 and i strongly fancy Torpchichen 11/2.

If vinny was to make the slightest mistake he may lose, i also don't like his jockey (Son) although he has always ridden the horse and at 11/4 there is money to be had elsewhere in the field, E/W if nothing else.

Ill be leaving it alone but good look anyway.
