Cheltenham 2026

Having a look through the cards tomorrow and I'm very tempted to lay Romeo Coolio in the BANC at 3/1. Money has piled in for him after Kargese's win but 3/1 is a ridiculous price in such a deep race
You’d want to be waiting till tomorrow and seeing the ground before betting into that field.

Grounds crucial in that. Rain forecast tonight, its just how much.
 
Do you know if the 40k they laid on backmersackme came from within the yard? Emmet's horses have been being backed like they can't lose recently all for them to run shite

I didn't hear that reported. There are not many people that could have that bet.
 
Finished level at the end of day 1. Supreme was crucial my book including doubles was:
El Cairos 900/148 - had some great bets here but also too much 5/1 and 6/1 NRNB nonsense.
Old Park Star 500/120 - again a little too much 9/4 but a couple of tidy doubles made up for that.

The Tizzard horse winning would have been a killer. I always include my ante-post non-runners with my day 1 figures - all the other bets were losers - BDA small, BDA win double with Gaelic Warrior, painful Ultima where I had Hyland and Handstands (terrible bet) each way and Leave of Absence win only. Also lost on Wade Out.

Main horse tomorrow is Majborough 280/68 also have small l'eau du Sud at 33s (first bet I placed last March). The Big Westerner I have a terrible position on now with the drift but I have some 20s with The Yellow Clay and 14s King Rasko Grey in the opener.
 
The big question tomorrow is do you believe the market adjustment to the British trained horses in the Turners Hurdle due to the result of the Supreme.
