Cheltenham 2020 - Ante post bets

[cwright23]

Think the 16/1 slybet have for band of outlaws any race looks appealing. He was a big fancy all week and won better than the margin suggested. I think they’ll either line him up for another handicap or might even be good enough for a champ hurdle

[Redbridge]

Interested in what people think of the QMCC market.

Altior at 3/1 but he surely must go up in trip! Doesn’t seem like he would want 3miles at Cheltenham to me, but could you really see him entered in the Ryanair?

Le Richebourg and Cilaos Emery would look to be value at 20/1

I had some 10s Cilaos Emery for the Arkle but getting involved at this stage after only having 3 runs in over two years is to risky for me.

This years are:
Tom Park-A Plus Tard (Champion Chase 33/1 and Ryanair 20/1)
Graeme Rodway-Espoir D’Allen (Champion Hurdle 6/1)
Ben Hutton-Frodon (Ryanair 16/1)
David Jennings-Buveur D’Air (Champion Hurdle 8/1)
Tom Segal-Bright Forecast (RSA 50/1)
Paul Kealy-Klassical Dream (Champion Hurdle 10/1)
Tom Collins-Topofthegame (Gold Cup 10/1)
Richard Birch-Al Dancer (Arkle 33/1)
Keith Melrose-Delta Work (Gold Cup 25/1)
Nick Watts-Defi Du Seuil (Ryanair 12/1)
Maddy Playle-Lostintranslation (Gold Cup 33/1)
Alan Sweetman-Blue Sari (Supreme Novices 16/1)

Just requested Defi to win any race, Sky put it up at 6s. If you fancy him for the QMCC take the 20s at Sky rather than 8 at 365

Defi looked like 2m 4 was perfect so would t be keen on QMCC but Ryanair....

Oddschecker do not seem to have Any odds up yet ? Did like A Plus Tard

Yes, very impressive winner. Put it in Yankee yesterday with three horses who are still improving and may well retain their crowns, Al Boum, Paisley and Espoir d’Allen.

I've taken Odds Boosts on BAND OF OUTLAWS to win the Champion Hurdle at 44/1, DEFI DU SEUIL for the Ryanair at 17.5/1, and TOPOFTHEGAME at 17/5/1 for The Gold Cup. All with William Hill, they are all shorter now.

Also have 22/1 CITY ISLAND Stayers Hurdle and 22/1 CILAOS ENERY Champion Chase, which are still available.

Backed BAND OF OUTLAWS at Odds Boost of 35/1 (from 33/1) with Paddy Power this afternoon. First time I have seen PP offer Odds Boosts.

[Rigga]

I couldn’t have the other 3 mentioned at the odds... Wouldn’t be backing anything at less than 20s this early. I think TOTG has a big day GC next year.

Fair enough, but if any go on and win at Punchestown or Aintree they will will be shorter.

[Rigga]

Not knocking the horses at all as I had PP and ABP 2019 Cheltenham. No value at those odds though imo...

[The Don]

Might Bite, Ryanair at 33s.... NH has to drop him back in trip....

[The Don]

Anyone else confused why Samcro is shorter for the JLT than RSA? Surely being a point winner who travels but doesn’t find much and isn’t quick surely RSA rather than JLT?

[Hurricane fly]

You have to play Gigginstown bingo

They have BoD and CoF both whom look to want 3 miles, wouldn’t shock me if he even went to the arkle

[FaugheenTheMachine]

Where would Dallas Des Pictons fit in? He looked all over a chaser to me
Vision D’Honnour surely the Arkle horse of any of the Gigginstown Novices
