Ante Post jumps discussion thread 2025/26

Dont want to start a new thread. @Slim Paddys have you 66/1 to be next Upping The Ante co host. Give a nod this way so we can have the lot on.

Personally make you 1000/1, you’d be great, not sure they’d like your controversy though

I'm even money. Have the absolute lot on.

If Slim got the gig, I'd watch it for the first time (nap).

Cant wait for the Upping The Ante special episode at Ditcheat when you refer to Paul Nicholls as Fat Man.

‘So Fat Man, where’s the next Denman?’

I wouldn't degrade myself my doing shit like that. Betting is a game that the man in a bar with a newspaper should be able to solve.

Well played Euro taking you bet it before the price went insanely short.

I did but fairly small, was very concerned he wouldn't run.

Despite being on the end of a proper good hiding yesterday perhaps I'm a glutton for punishment but i still looking for ways to turn it around.

Looking ahead to the Ladbrokes handicap hurdle on the 20th of December i think the price disparity between Alexi favourite for this and Wilful is beyond comprehension. Wilful available at a top price of 9/1 with 365 is going to be 19lbs better off for a length or so in the Welsh Champion hurdle. I've no doubt Alexi is improving but 19lb makes a big difference. Wilful travelled probably best of all in that race and tired late on but it was his first run of the campaign and he's entitled to have come on for the run himself. I also think Ascot is perfect for his prominent strong travelling style. It's his only entry at this time and I think he's a cracking bet.

Always looking for the next ante-post after a bad day. I've gone for the same card but the handicap chase over 3m and Blow Your Wad appeals. He finished his race really well behind The Changing Man and Henry's Friend over course and distance last month and I note that the latter is entered at Cheltenham next week so hopefully he'll take up that engagement. ByW is entitled to come on a ton for that race.
