Cheltenham 2019 Ante-Post bets

[MrMcGoldrick]

Listening to Wylie it looks like he's hoping Bellshill will be his GC runner next year, with the whip rules they would have to put his head in front on the line though

I'm sure he is hoping for that.... but Bellshill won't be on my shortlist. a 0.75L win over Djakadam isn't Gold Cup winning form....and the 10L in the RSA that he was beaten in the RSA is incredibly flattering behind Might Bite.

He's been to Cheltenham 3 times and been beaten 16L, 32L and 10L(Might Bite) so you can argue it isn't his track either, despite running over the wrong trip in one of them.

I think he's had his brightest moment in the sun this week personally.

Can't disagree with any of that Kev, my thinking was that if they could only get him home by leathering him all the way up the run in I don't want to see it anyway.

I backed Bellshill the other day (and in the Irish National) but I couldn’t have him to beat Might Bite at Cheltenham based on their RSA.

Good horse is Bellshill mind. But not quite Gold Cup winnin ckass. Could well run a decent race but won’t be winning imo.

Had a few quid on COMMANDER OF FLEET for the Ballymore, 16/1 skybet. Thought he won his Bumper easily at Punchy and I can see him doing the same route as Samcro.

Great minds PitLad - I took the easy way out and went Any Race @ 12's with Hills.
I've lost far too many AP bets over the years by having the "wrong" race for Novices.

Just done a life changer e/w lucky 15

Hollowgraphic - Ballymore - 33/1
Annamix - Supreme - 20/1
Willoughby Court - Ryanair - 25/1
Summerville Boy - Champion Hurdle - 14/1


I did debate didtheyleaveuoutto for the supreme but a 50p e/w pays £168k

Less than a month before the 2018 festival.... I've had my first bet for 2019

Presenting Percy 40/1 for the Gold Cup - currently on their specials page
Monalee is also 33/1 for the Gold Cup.

They're vying for favourtism for the RSA, and I would anticipate whichever won being single figures.

A lot of water to go under the bridge until then, but at the moment we have no STANDOUT Gold Cup contender this year (bar possibly Might Bite) and as for the novices, I see Presenting Percy and Monalee as the most obvious Gold Cup contenders next year...

I just started reading through this thread again , and TOP of the list is this , !! . I'm very Envious Kev !. well done in your analysis
got it spot on , Have a Monalee 33-1 ticket , but P.percy only in multiples at the
Moment , Guessing the 6-1 currently available.Is going to be around for a while , So
will wait before doing a single , but definitely think is a Top contender.

Thanks BC. Certainly sets me up nicely for the race at this stage but a helluva long way to go!

A 100/1 shot each way, finishing 4th in a 5 runner race in his ideal conditions is testimant to how hard it can be



I like your bet HF. A little too speculative for me at the moment with only one confirmed target... Annamix a highly likely target and the other two hopeful but not confident. I like it all the same though.

[Hurricane fly]

I’ll be happy with a cash out come February!

Good point, 365 will take over 90% of my bets I imagine.

Long shot but if anybody here wants tickets for Nottingham racing on Friday for £10 then PM me. Got 5 going spare. Evenings racing and beer festival from all around the world PLUS the inaugural running of the 'Grand Tashional'.

Does anyone other than sky bet have an any race market up yet. I can't find hills?

William Hill and Ladbrokes are the others I've seen so far
