C Hill Evens

Only see it available with Billies. You can only get a tenner online [likewise in the shops if you have their loyalty card and assuming you visit one]

No catch at all , Billies & Skybett been going evens for long odds on shots for a couple of years now as bait for new accounts and also loyalty for small stakers , only for tenner punters.

The catch is it's probably one of the worst value 1/3 shots in Chelters history

how many 1/3 shots have there been in cheltenham history

i can only think of douvan and arkle there may be others

The catch is it's probably one of the worst value 1/3 shots in Chelters history

and your reasoning is ..........

sorry, I thought that would be obvious to most people
1. State Man is a very decent improving horse 2. stats go against it.
not saying it cant win but it aint a 1/3 punt

Monkfish was 1/4 two years ago, plenty others!

State Man can't beat him unless at some point he is "given 10 lengths " which Nico surely won't let happen.

That's the beauty of horseracing. I think if odds-on is your thing he's one of the best value 1/3 shots in Chelt history.

It's the way it won last time out.  It was almost effortless.  He didn;t break stride just pulled away like a rolls royce.

If you didn't have different opinions on what is a back and what's a lay the exchange wouldn't exist.

Cheers dg blimey it’s no good getting old monkfish was only 2 years ago and I’ve already forgotten,without looking I don’t think there will be as many as people thing both quevega and big bucks were never that short .

Altior 1/4  2017, plenty others

Sprinter Sacre 1/4 2013

Getting bored now so no more!

There all relatively recent just shows how the dilution has affected the festival.

Was not impressed with the way CH moved at kempton last time, a bit wooden but result speaks for itself, mid race at chelt last year oss was flowing like a mountain waterfall,the good uns that look nothing in parade ring are a wonderful enigma to behold.

The champion hurdle has not been a great betting race for me and long ago gave up on the div so whilst Con Hill has my respect and I have availed myself of the free money I could not bet the beast, I do have an angle in the race though, but that's between me and the exchange.

Vauban had the handbrake on last time against State Man.

Sits on CH backside and scoots past him going up the hill. Lovely.

Very true.

I had a grand on Sprinter Sacre at 1/4....possibly my biggest stake to then ........there was not a seconds concern.

However , I learnt a big lesson ....his next race was the one he pulled up in with the heart issue ........you just never know........
