2016 Cheltenham Festival Day 1 Yankee (by Faugheen_Machine)

[loveracing]

If he runs he's going in Ista.

3 more selections to find.......

F_m - does this means we may have to wait until Fest Eve to place the day 1 Yankee? I mean do you think we will find out soon or maybe the day before the race? I cannot see him going off at price the day before, more like 6-7's.

Anyway, waiting the day before won't work for the FJ Main Yankee. Shall we set a deadline for the all FK Yankee selections?

I was thinking of making the final selections at the 5 day stage LR. That should give a good indication of the final runners. The last thing I want to do is select a couple of non runners (something I've been very good at in recent weeks)!

Sounds good to me. Everyone else ok with that?

Sounds like a plan, plus it gives me 3 days longer than FM

Sounds good.
I'm heading down there Monday and whilst I've found a way of getting the forum on the phone I'm not great at navigating my way around so won't have much input from Monday lunchtime...

[Faugheen_Machine]

Same here Ista. My train leaves late Monday morning and I won't be back on here until the Thursday morning, or possibly even the weekend.

Any suggestions folks?

The two I like at the moment are Sempre Medici (LR keen on this one) and Native River (my selection). In the ultima I like both Holywell and UN Temps Pour Tout but want to check 5 day entries before I commit.

Does anyone have their bet of the festival running on day 1, at an ew price??

[loveracing]

Bump for the judge...

[MrMcGoldrick]

FYI, I like Kruzhlinin in the Ultima

F*** it, I hate putting my naps in acca's but take it anyway. Sempre Medici for the CH.

Hang on, he already has a white face, so I will just imagine the weight loss. haha

He's going to be right in the mix. A patient ride is what's required, similar to Arctic Fire last year.
