Bayfox Posted 17 September 2015 Share Posted 17 September 2015 Just ordered tickets for all 4 days, Tuesday, Me and the Wife Weds, me being billy no mates on ladies day, what a shame. Thurs/Fri 4 of us down there for both days and getting train Direct from Cheltenham to london for palace away on the sat. So question is, anyone else going next year and if so, anyone fancy a pint on the weds, so I don't have to spend all day as a loner . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bert Posted 17 September 2015 Share Posted 17 September 2015 I'll be there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom17LCFC Posted 17 September 2015 Share Posted 17 September 2015 I'll almost certainly be down. Went on gold cup day last year but didn't enjoy it as much as I did when we went on the Tuesday the year before. I put it down to the fact the queues for beer and bets wete massive but it's probably more to do with the fact I did my absolute bollocks. Probably look at the the Tuesday again this year.

Bayfox Posted 10 January 2016 Author Share Posted 10 January 2016 This is on the horizon now. Starting to get the buzz. Just looking at the potential entries on the Tuesday and that has all the potential to match the quality and drama of last year. Min looks set to go off odds on in the novice hurdle. Which means there good be some real value elsewhere. In what could be a cracking race. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hirsty The Blue 94 Posted 18 February 2016 Share Posted 18 February 2016 Going again for the 2nd year on champion hurdle day. Gutted not to see Faugheen but my Ante Post bet on Arctic fire and almost triple it's current price looks tasty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ramboacdc Posted 18 February 2016 Share Posted 18 February 2016 anyone got racing post plus and willing to send me pricewises through the festival? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bayfox Posted 18 February 2016 Author Share Posted 18 February 2016 Willie Mullins is litterally a Bookies benefit on the anti post markets ! Just a bit. Luckily most of my bets are NRNB, but I have several AntePost accas and 1 is already a 3 fold instead of 4 and in they now move Annie is reduces to a double, plus I lose a few other options in she doesn't run in the Mares or World Hurdle, Guess that's the risk. Most of my accas do have Artic Fire and Nichols Canyon in tho as Faugheen was not exactly where the value lay, so every cloud and all that.

ScouseFox Posted 23 February 2016 Share Posted 23 February 2016 worst champion hurdle ever. possibly the worst championship race of any kind in years too. if annie power is in it it has a very small bit of star quality. if not it's going to be a mullins third or fourth string vs whoever nicky henderson can get fit vs the new one. bigger and better horses in some of the fu cking handicaps.

Have to agree, annie would have had to have a seriously good race to win the champion hurdle, now it is almost being handed to her on a plate. The knock on being the mares hurdle loses it's star. Really gutted not to get to see faugheen as mentioned before, but now the gloss has been taken of the opening day full stop, and it's not like it's a vintage gold cup on the friday either.
