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.   ;D


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  ;D )

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

Honeybadg:
... amazingly I got got a text from Paddy Power ...

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

Honeybadg:
... even better I call up Paddy Power and there is £70 sitting in my account that I had forgotten about ... mmm

5/1 with money back if the favourite wins ... get on ...
