Forget your odds. The market is weighted by scaredy-cats, cowardy-custards and chicken-shits.

Vautour will 100% run in the Gold Cup. It isn't even up for dispute, imo. They had their year of compromise with The Vulture, when they ran him in the JLT. They will not fu*ck about this season.

Then you need to lump on at 10/1.
 
Please can you not contaminate every thread with your wet dreams about Vautour. It's bordering on mental illness now.

I shall do no such thing etc etc.

My wet dreams are a much better alternative to the night terrors and shat-beds that will be suffered by those who see him decd for the GC, TheBear. ;)

Slim, I'm balls-deep between 16/1 and 12/1, with a liberal sprinkling on 8/1 in multiples.

Join me. :D

Ruby gets a very big say. If he wants to ride Djakadam then the waters will muddy very quickly.
 
His choice is simple.

Ride a horse already beaten in the race, or take a chance that a stone-better animal will stay the trip.

The decision is not going to vex him for even one second.
 
Grasshopper seems to have mistaken this thread for the 'who's your favourite band member' thread on the One Direction forum. He is displaying all the signs of a fanboy.

5.) They perceive anyone who gives non-kid-gloves treatment as a threat.
4.) They act entitled and can’t handle criticism; no matter how valid
3.) They act superior to others, including fellow fans who aren’t as “elite.”
2.) Their behavior makes others embarrassed to be a part of their fandoms
1.) Since they care more about “supporting” their favorite series than quality, the creators don’t get properly chastised for making a crappy product.

I can't stress enough that there is no place on this thread which is aimed at making money for this bollocks.

Boylesports have gone NRNB on the Ryanair and have Vautour priced at Evens. Surely that's as close to a no-lose bet as you will find.

Unfortunately I can't get a penny on with the jokers.

You're tying up capital for two months betting on a race he won't run in. His price on the day wouldn't be too far away from Evs
 
I saw 8s yesterday for him in Ryanair with BB. Can only assume that was a rick. I imagine if that lasted that would make up the minds of the camp concerned with all investing life savings.

It was available with Bet365 all week.

That's the first and last of it really and he won't make his mind up until they've both run again or, more likely, the weekend before the Festival. For the same reason, any bet on Vautour to run in the QM is a bet on UDS failing to turn up at best. Without NRNB it should be 20/1 or longer.

8/1 for the Champion Chase.

Was Deffo down as Ryanair on odds checker. I nearly choked as i checked a couple of times. Was straight on site looking for it (NRNB) but race not even mentioned on there. So obviously a rick.

CF where does he fit in? Could Ricci run the 3 in the seperate races?

Didn't realize 365 had this too - I can get on with them thankfully. Nice one.

and @ Benny - My return on the capital over 2 months would be negligible and subject to either 50% tax (ISA not an option) or admin and/or brokerage fees if invested so I can live with that for the potential returns in the unlikely event he does go down the shorter route.

He was no bigger than 13/8 for the Ryanair yesterday. You can check the price history on oddschecker.

I know what I saw man on more than one occasion in short succession. I do though don't recall seeing BB marking it up before on there and can't now either. Could that be why it's not there?
 
Going Back to Slim's original post

Ar Mad will be a steal if he lines up

Am i right in thinking Moore said they will only find out on the day (Arkle) if he is going to handle left handed

I wasn't thinking of saving/investing it as an alternative - I was thinking of how many much better even money shots you could back with it over the next two months.
