By:
9am, not sure what max bet will be, £50 i would imagine.
|
|
By:
Will be £10.£20 if your really lucky.
|

 I was hoping to get £400(Less commission) on  |

I remember they boosted his price last year and kept the cash...
He has proved numerous he doesn't stay has he not? |
|
By:
Wouldn't back him at 6/1. The pace will be tough and he won't get up the hill. RDS is my Cheltenham banker bet!

Raised 17lb for his last win. Couldn't give it a chance. The Pipe horse for me. Has been for a while. The name? Grand Crus. Had it on here at 44s. RDS was beaten by Big Bucks 9 lengths in a canter giving 9lbs. Big Bucks beat GC 1.75l in this race at levels. OW won't stay.

Its not a handicap so weight is not relevant. All depends on ground. If its bottomless Rev De Sivola is the one to be on, but i'd fancy Oscar Whisky to reverse form with RDS on better ground.
Grand Crus at a big price EW is not a terrible bet, but he isn't the horse he was when coming second to Big Buck's 2 years ago. |

@brigust1 - that's got to be a classic internet troll comment about the 17 pounds

hills aint daft,same with corals with these specials,how many people go in get their tenner or score on then empty their pockets on the machines??

By:
Troll? RDS was raised 17lbs for beating Oscar Whisky on heavy ground in a race run in nearly a minute slower than average. Far and away the highest rating he has ever achieved. Otherwise he would be 20lbs behind Grand Crus. I know there is a risk but he is far and away the best horse in the race. Works for me.

i suppose you could argue it's a good price considering he was 4/1 last year taking on the greatest staying hurdler ever and is now 6/1 in a much weaker race
although i still don't like it, 0/3 at the festival (beaten in the supreme, champion and world hurdle) and probably not a stayer |
|
By:
That could be true but this is a weaker affair. When RDS met Big Bucks he was 33s whereas GC was 7/2.

Just been to the London racing club preview only thing all 5 agreed on was Oscar whiskey not a great thing
|
|
By:
Wonderful Charm will be bet on on the day if he turns up, as will Get Me Out of Here.
Imv Oscar Whisky is a cracking 10 quid bet at 6-1 unless it's really soft. |
|
By:
Set that alarm. 6/1 is a great price, get on everyone. This guy is a great horse, would have won last years champion hurdle (probably), as long as the ground is no worse than good to soft he'll hack up.

Just tried to back £50 at 6/1....rejected bet and offered £15 at 6/1 and £35 at 4/1. I declined their offer and tried to place a new £15 bet at 6/1 however they wont accept it cos I declined their previous offer !

whats happening in the shops..is it worth a trawl round!
|
|
By:
£20 limit that's what I was told in the shops and £15 on line
|
|
By:
£6.15 max I was allowed
|
|
By:
ok thanks
|
|
By:
Can get £20.00 E/W in shops. Decent bet as well since Monksland, Quevega and Solwhit all short in betting and likely to not run.

Put in with some multiples and you will get far more on if that's the way you want to go.
