Andrew's Cheltenham Angles #4 Thursday

4.40 Chelts Pertemps...
9 of the last 10 winners have worn a tounge-tie.
Interesting enough.

Sometimes a coincidence is just a coincidence.

the headline nugget was "back every horse" its made a profit 5 of the last 7 cheltenhams
unfortunately its lost the previous 7 before that, so that's 5 of the last 14 in profit...for a big loss

christ, how far back do you want to go. festival was completely different a decade ago etc...

completely missing the point

How about don’t bother betting there and stick to sedgefield  and the other meetings that are on ,where it is far less competitive and in theory easier to find a winner

Is it? id not want to go back further than 5 years on any kind of "system".. especially with all the changes to the races and qualification criteria.

this thread isn't about you

Exactly wonders, its about someone who puts his opinion out there and i'm sure most on here would take 1.01 he's in front of you punting.

no wrong again its not opinion its cherry picking stats to create a narrative that doesn't exist

and keep your bs to yourself

1.01 weighed in

id not want to go back further than 5 years on any kind of "system
5 years ago is relevant but 6 isn't?
explain

it's the same nonsense as the 5 of the last 7

5 is close enough to bare some resemblence to whats going on in the current framework of most races give or take. Going back 14 is pointless, you do know Shergar and Mill Reef dont run anymore right?

5 is close enough but 6 isn't?

national hunt chase amongst others has changed since then

cross country

You dont have to take any notice do you? keep to your own strategy and keep the pennies accumulating, or hitting the deposit button.

it wouldn't influence me at all I just like to see how others see the game, particularly for cheltenham, ascot etc when there's a lot more rec money about

back every horse as a strategy is remarkable advice to put out there imo

but each to their own

I would have the opposite thoughts re the big festivals. More money around for sure, but far less relevant than a bumper on a Tuesday at Wincanton etc. Festivals just attract bigger bets for no other reason than it’s the “done” thing coupled with some bookmakers actually betting to opinion.

more liquidity usually means market moves are more significant
but you're right re smaller meetings there can be non jigger signal even in weak markets whereas cheltenham etc in theory everything is off

The guy is only giving you things to think about.

Last year Poniros 100/1 beats Lulamba 11/4 a neck in the first race on Friday   (225 BSP)

1/2 a length swing and figures are not so good.

It's a way of opposing horses at the front of the market and means you are likely to be having a shout in plenty of finishes.

credit where its due...back every horse done v well this year wd

Not one hoss wore a tongue-tie in the Pertemps
