  1. As said - avoid what I back....

     

    I'm backing Mike's selections for the rest of the day though!

     

    7 winners so far with a couple of places on top - I've managed to have a bet as well with all my funds coming from a £10 free bet on Teaforthree in the first. The first time I've used Paddy Power and I'm on fire using their money :grin:

     

    EDIT: Forgot to say, I've also nipped out for a couple of Lucky Dips for the Lottery tonight :grin:

     

    EDIT 2: Just noticed this is my 300th post which means I'm no longer Danny Boshell, not sure life gets any better than this

  2. Where are you getting these tips from?!!?

     

    Haha..I follow getyourtipsout on twitter (blog here http://getyourtipsout.wordpress.com/). I go with a mix of what they suggest and what I've backed before. They had a good day yesterday but missed Our Mick and Balthazar and I've only gone with 3 of their picks today (they were against Simonsig). They're having a decent year overall so definitely worth a follow.

     

    Edited for spelling

  3. Is it take a wild guess on a horse and pretend you are good at picking horses season already?

     

    I'm dead good at picking horses me :grin:

     

    After some good races yesterday, and some great results, I'm not half as confident about today. I'm not sure I'll have chance to put a bet on today but again, for what it's worth, here are my picks:

     

    13:30 - Teaforthree

    14:05 - Simonsig

    14:40 - Grands Crus

    15:20 - Finian's Rainbow

    16:00 - Consigliere (E/W)

    16:40 - Vendor

    17:15 - Village Vic

  4. Good day, so far!

     

    :chubb:

     

    16:40 - Quevega win, Kentford Grey Lady 2nd.

     

    Not had big money on any of these unfortunately, and had to take a couple as doubles and trebles, so not won anywhere near what I should have done. Decent day nevertheless and a place for Ackertac in the last would bring in my biggest bet (e/w treble with Balthazar and Kentford)

  5. I know there used to be a few racing threads on here but I've not seen one in a while so thought I'd start one up for Cheltenham. I'm "in between" jobs at the minute so I'm in the strange position of being able to watch the Festival but not have a bet (other than a couple of free bets I've still got knocking about in my online accounts). For what it's worth my Day one picks (based on nothing more than names that have won for me before or that I like the look of) are:

     

    Supreme Novices Hurdle - Cinders & Ashes

     

    Arkle - Sprinter Sacre

     

    JLT - Quantitativeasing (Our Mick as an E/W chance)

     

    Champion Hurdle - Hurricane Fly

     

    Cross country Chase - Balthazar King

     

    Mares Hurdle - Quevega (Kentford Grey Lady E/W)

     

    Novice Handicap - Ackertac

  6. Reading through RAWK a lot of Liverpool fans seem to think this guy has been cleared, rather than CPS not having enough evidence to proceed. They are talking about apologies, compensation and the rest of it and claiming that all the evidence supports the accused. At the same time they have the audacity to have a pop at other people for "not reading" the FA report on Suarez.

  7. Just had a couple of quid on Hiddink to be in charge for first game of Euros at 20/1. Think he'd be a great shout short term with his tournament pedigree and then would allow 'Arry to concentrate on Spurs. FA could then take more time after the tournament to plan for the long term

  8. I'll be very surprised if PD drops Taylor. He won't even take him off during a game when he's the or one of the worst out there.

     

    Think you're right, unfortunately. Not one to slaughter players, I just don't think Taylor offers anywhere near as much as the other options at the minute (even if one of them is called Keanu)
