Bets 26/01/2013

I've had to re-post this. Somehow got deleted?! Quite frankly, no incentive to repost it, but I'm staying true even in the lulls....

Tom 'Pricewise' Segal from the Racing Post has gone nuts today! 5 bets. Argh, hate it when he does:


Cheltenham 1.15 – Nadiya De La Vega 10/1
Cheltenham 2.25 – Quartz De Thaix 16/1
Leopardstown 2.45 – Hidden Cyclone 7/1
Leopardstown 3.20 – Ted Veale 10/1, Flying Light 16/1

Excited by today, but will miss all the action. My thoughts before 11am....
Cheltenham 12.10 – Interesting that before Irish Saint’s 6/4 last race connections suggested Chelts wasn’t on the agenda, but hope that doesn’t mean won’t take to Chelts. On paper looks the pick. Rolling Star’s form doesn’t stack up either does Knight For Pleasure. Henderson does say he loves Rolling Star so this is not a banker. Loving seeing Calculated Risk in the form of some of these! J

Cheltenham 12.40 – Rajdhani Express really took me by surprise last time and could easily shrug off the unlucky 13lb rise. The one who really catches my eye primarily because of the Rolling Aces form is Benny’s Mist 17/2 (w/o the fav). That form has been working out all season and the trainer has won this race 3 times before although does have another in the race.

Cheltenham 1.15 – This one is uber hard. Segal’s pick is not bad. NDLV runs well here, but surely must be a couple better handicapped. I didn’t really take to Our Mick 12/1 last year and not sure why but if he is fit the form is hot and the one I'm backing today. Sir Bold Brian looks mightily impressive too, but will stick with the two selections.

Cheltenham 1.50 – One of those where if I had £100k I would do it. I really would lump on Sprinter Sacre 1/5, but I don’t have it so I can’t. I freaking love this horse.

Cheltenham 2.25 – Think Segal has picked a good chance again with QDT.  Let’s get the record straight though. If Imperial Commander 5/1 is fit and on top game, he wins this.

Cheltenham 3.00 – I could be wrong about this one but I’ve been all over this horse for a while and when a trainer like TD reckons he’s the best he has ever had who am I to argue. The New One 10/11. Love it. Lookig at the card Coneygree and Whisper look very good horses, but I’m emotionally sucked in with TNO.

Cheltenham 3.35 – I’m throwing myself into dangerous territory here. I’m sucked in by Sprinter, The New One and now I have Oscar Whisky 2/1 (with Hills). Ladbrokes are Evs! He didn’t get 3 miles last time, but Henderson wouldn’t do this unless he believed and I believe. Some may argue Henderson is trying to monopolise and now Bucks is out run the risk with Oscar and you could argue the same for Kauto Stone who clearly is a better chaser. Quite frankly I’ll be a bit upset if Oscar loses this one.

Cheltenham 4.10 – Mr. Watson 11/4 could hose up if in same form as last race as looks well handicapped. Salders Risk w/o the fav 14/1 is definitely worth the risk to based on his JCB effort and freshness. Guess could argue His Excellency is better weighted than SR on this basis but he’s been chasing for a while now and might be a risk switched back.

Leopardstown 1.45 – Arvika Ligeonniere 8/13 solid.

Leopardstown 2.45 – Well done Segal, think you’ve picked another good chance with Hidden Cyclone but Canaly 10/1 is also interesting with the trainer’s record and handicap mark.

Leopardstown 3.20 – Feck. Tough. But at a quick glance there’s one formline that won me some bucks during the festive period and therefore I’m out to Hit The Headlines 16/1
