Hardy Eustace, Spotthedifference are the 2 best favourites tomorrow. The Gold Cup is wide open and I'll see how much it rains before I put any more on Kicking King.

At the moment Spotthedifference, Marcel E/W and Made in Japan E/W are my tips for tomorrow. Not much around to be honest. I'm saving the big money for the Flyer on Wednesday. If he doesn't fall he wins. I'll back other races, but not big? Anyone going to Cheltenham? I'm off for Wednesday, Thursday and Friday.

Shouldn't have took the 7/2 on Justified man. I like the horse, but he's available at around 6.00 on the exchanges and is drifting everywhere because he likes soft ground. Cheltenham is good.

I know, haven't put my bets on yet on on doing a bit of reading have changed my selection to Chilling Place whom I should get at about 9/1.

Ah, good job you didn't take the price. Lucky I got on War of Attrition and Joley Bey this morning after heavy movement and big tips from the pros. They're coming in quickly so if you like either get on with the early prices.

Until I relaised he wor serious. Look in the bookies, there are different slips available like placepots, lucky 15's etc.. They have instructions, a place pot is pick 6 horses in the six races and they all have to come in 1st 2nd 3rd I think, I usually do lucky 15s, more of a chance of at least getting your money back. Dont know what a canadian is?

joeSoap

A placepot is where you pick a horse(s) placed in each of the first six races. Simply pick a horse that you think will be placed in each race, and write down his number on a placepot ticket. If you pick a horse placed in each of the six races, you stand to reap a very healthy dividend. If you don't know too much about horses, you can simply choose six favourites, or six second favourites.

A canadian involves five selections with one five-timer, five four-timers, 10 trebles and 10 doubles. All various combinations of the five you picked.

Also had Heros. He was the best jumper of the lot for most of it and then he had one bad jump and drifted off.

Only got one bet right, Straight forecast for Hardy and Harchy 25 euro I think, unbelievable race though.. Didnt bother with the last two today even though ill be raging when Spot thedif runs home. Banker for tomorrow Moscow flyer, Azertyuiop and Well Chief Reverse tricast..

I like the forecast but not the tri. I don't trust Chief to stay up the hill after seeing him weaken earlier this year at Sandown (IIRC)

He's a monster of a horse.

See him at Puncestown last April and also against the Czech raider where the German jockey took the wrong course at the last? BTW that jockey is now crippled and his career's sadly over. STD has been out hunting recently and looks good.

Anyone have an opinion on this race? I'm on Ease the way who appears to be the huge gamble of the day. It's only a small stake for fun any way after STD cleared up.

A couple of high odd tips:

2.00: Red George - 66/1
4.40: Montreal - 33/1

Not a source I'd like to rely on but at those odds I can't refuse to put a small bit on the places.
