Matt Posted 14 March 2014 Posted 14 March 2014 Ned Buntline for the final race of Cheltenham 2014. 2nd, not bad. In other news Daryl Jacob who got thrown off his horse onto the tarmac before the 2.40 has suffered a Broken leg, Knee and Elbow. Ouch! C4 reported he felt he could 'walk away' but was told by medics he had to go to hospital, good luck walking away from that.

GingerrrFox Posted 14 March 2014 Posted 14 March 2014 I placed £5 on Urbain De Sivola at 70/1 as he was ridiculously priced. He only finished 4th but he was left behind at the start and the starter let it run. He was 15l behind at the first. The ****er would have won if the race was started fairly!

Lets hope he makes a full recovery, the horse is fine i hope? it was walking away so i assume it's ok? But overall that accident could have been much, much worse! spectators could have been involved, it could have been very messy
Hirsty The Blue 94 Posted 14 March 2014 Posted 14 March 2014 Well was a very interesting 4 days. Day one and two in very healthy profit, days 3 and 4 minor losses.Today was ridiculous, had 5 third places and a second overall.
chrishlcfc Posted 14 March 2014 Posted 14 March 2014 Shocking final day for me had a cheeky £1 on lord windermere, but had some pretty hefty bets on briar hill and Silviniaco Conti. Wiped out all my 1st 3 days profit today which was disappointing but another very enjoyable and high quality cheltenham festival.

Although not sure Daryl Jacob would agree with his injuries but when he looks at the big picture he might.
