Horse Experts ... (Aintree)

[Honeybadg]

... certainly not me (an expert) ... however I was reading the Metro this morning who made the case for the second favourite (Torphicen) in the Cheltenham @ 1.30pm.

Progressive 4 year old, won last two races in lower company - has 8 pounds on rest of field. Has won at the distance but not the course. Jumped very well.

Cousin Vinny is the favourite (unseated rider last - with some novicey jumping) - 10/3. It is a Novice Hurdle (Grade 1) but I don"t like reading that for the favourite.

Torphicen is currently 6/1 on Betfair hard to see that lasting ... not a massive bet but any thoughts?

I"d forgotten it was Cheltenham Festival this week.

Work rescheduled, thanks Louis.  


Can"t see past Cousin Vinny in the first, but what do I know ?

Cheltenham and Goodwood are the only festivals I have a bet on when it comes to the horses.  Here"s my selections for today (for what it"s worth   )

13:30 Cousin Vinny
14:05 Tartak (e/w)
14:40 Possol (e/w)
15:20 Osana
16:00 Garde Chompetre
16:40 United

Losing single/ew bets refunded if Cousin Vinny Wins ... now that becomes a monster bet if the odds are okay ....

[nosey-p]

i"m on

1.30 cant buy time
2.05 karabak
2.40 gone to lunch
3.20 master minded
4.00
4.40 miss sarenne

[Honeybadg]

... got a place in the first on Drumcovis which made a real mess of the 4th from home ... aside Parsons Pistol had a lot of pace but jumped terribly.

Won the second with Mikael D"H ... which made a mess of the second last ... Karabak unlucky ...

... going on What a friend - (owned by Alex Ferguson in the next)

Hard to see past Masterminded but I tempted with the 6/4 that it wins but by less than 13 lenghts.

... not got to the 4.00 yet!
