And so the first day has come and gone already. Out of the four Cheltenham Festival tips we gave yesterday, two won and two didn't, to leave us with an impressive 11 points profit on the day. I do hope you backed our tips yesterday.
Our winners epitomised our strategy of targeting value priced horses, as Forpadydeplasterer won the 2.05pm by a head. I advised on the line in the morning to take the 10/1 on offer, which I hope you all did. The SP was 8/1, so still decent profit if you weren't able to get the 10s.
And in 4.40pm Quevega did the business for us. Again, I advised you take the 5/2 on offer in the morning, with the horse's SP eventually being 2/1. We had a 2 point win on Quevega, and so profited well from his victory.
So a good day.
Today however, is a new and different day. What does it hold in store?
Well, the race that's getting all the headlines today is the Queen Mother Champion Chase, or the 3.20pm to give it its abbreviated name! The reason is that the great Master Minded is running in this one, and I've noticed a lot of Cheltenham tips have involved this horse, but I wonder why?
The reason is, there is no value. Yes, he is a class horse and will take all the beating in this race. In fact, many believe that as long as he stays on his feet, he'll win. But 1/3 favourite?
So I'm going to avoid him and look elsewhere. I'm still finalising my selections, but ones that are worth considering and watching are Carruthers in the 2.40pm. He's a a good jumper and his form thus far has been very good. he won last time out at Ascot and looked a class act.
I also like Mad Max in the 2.05pm, as he is such a big horse that as long as he jumps within his ability, he should have no problem staying the course and competing for victory.
If i have time today I may post again with further thoughts, as I'm frantically looking at all the last minute details, and watching what the weather does.
And if you know of any other possible tips for Cheltenham today, please let me have your thoughts, its always good to hear from you.
