Cheltenham 2009

[A T]

I have put a lot of time into my selections for the first day with the intention of looking for something to beat the favorites

Supreme Novices Hurdle Merdermit 14/1

Arkle Kalahari King 10/1

William Hill Handicap Chase According To John 12/1 unless i'm missing something this horse is handicapped to at the very least place but even win this race

Cross Country H'cap Chase Garde Champetre 7/2

I left out 2 races the mares hurdle cause i can't find a winner and the champion hurdle cause i think Binocular didn't get up the hill last year but i still can't find the horse that i believe is capable of beating him even with the hill.

Supreme Novices Hurdle Merdermit 14/1
Arkle Kalahari King 10/1
William Hill Handicap Chase
Cross Country H'cap Chase Garde Champetre 7/2

Now we all know exactly which horses to avoid

Hang on, I'll give you my list - that should allow you to narrow down the winner even easier.

Here's a winner:
Paddy Power is refunding all bets on the Supreme Novices Hurdle if Cousin Vinny wins, so why not have £200 quid (maximum refund) on Cousin Vinny at 5/2 and if he wins you're up £500, if he doesn't you get your money back!!!!!!

there's got to be a catch :?

 

[A T]

There is i'm so dumb if he loses you get nothing back

 

[BrewStew]

i was gunna say... that to me looked like if you bet on any OTHER horse than Vinny, and Vinny wins you get a refund.

 

[A T]

And instead you decided to say :rofl:

there's got to be a catch :?

 

[BrewStew]

Great late run by Garde Champetre. :thumb:

Another couple of metres and Merdermit and Kalahari King would have been in the winners enclosure too.

I take it you backed them each way?Hope so. :pray:

Great days racing watched every race, never had a bet though.
