Scudamore and Pipe are on fire together right now and they team up again on Osana in the 3.15 but there are a lot of quality horses in the Champion Hurdle, so really don't know what to go for in that.

My picks for today are as follows:

2.00 - Binocular & Deep Purple both e/w

2.35 - Noland & Leslintaylor e/w

3.15 - Sizing Europe & Punjabi e/w

4.00 - An Accordian & Patsy Hall e/w

4.40 - Wonderkid & Le Duc e/w

5.20 - Chapoturgeon & Hypnotic Vibes e/w

I have a feeling Ashkazaar will take the bonus pot though after winning the Imperial on Saturday, but really fancy Nicholls horse in the 5.20.

Not actually bet on all of these yet, by the way, not got enough wedge. lol

Got a placing in my first bet, really thought Binocular had it in the bag, but at £5 e/w, it was a free bet for me really.

McCoy is gutted though, Captain Ceebee was the horse he deserted for Binocular. :crylaugh:

Even stevens after two races for me due to the above bet placed on the off.

I'm gonna stick with e/w doubles:

15:15 Straw Bear 20/1

16:00 Fundamentalist 12/1

£2 e/w double

Punjabi has bailed me out of the shit after Sizing Europe dropping like a sack of shit.

In profit be a small margin so far, fairly happy as I wasn't confident with the first 3 races if i'm honest. But Punjabi is quality at the odds I got really and had to be taken.

16:40 Kilbeggan Blade 16/1

17:20 Siege Of Ennis 25/1

Mine was a non runner so I got £110 for three winners and two non runners.

I'm tempted to do a Wonderkid-Ashkazar double now :unsure:

I've got Wonderkid & River Liane.

Well that was a shite first day for me. Always is though when it comes to betting, Think it's telling me something.

Not sure but don't think I had winner all festival last year, I was down by a fair amount anyway :thumbdown:

Oh well always stick to the rule, Bet what you can afford to lose, TBH it's only a bit of fun for me anyway, I'm not so bothered about losing the money, I'm bother about not winning! lol

Just about to look at tomorrow's betting, Any tips from anyone?!

Posted
I believe Bert did quite well today made £60 or around that figure. :thumbup:

Had £5 E/W on Rippling Ring.

£4 E/W on Mahagony Blaze

£5 E/W on Katchit.

Katchit had drifted to 11's by the time i got to the shop, so i thought my best chance was a place, lucky for me it came in.

RACING HAS BEEN ABANDONED TODAY DUE TO HIGH WINDS.

RACES HAVE BEEN SAVED AND ALL WILL BE ADDED TO THURSDAY AND FRIDAYS CARD.

Shit man. Yesterday's races made work fly by. At least there should be some races for me to watch on At The Races when I get home from work tomorrow and Friday, or will they be run in the mornings of each day?
