For shame!
Left the first one well alone as I didn't have a clue what to do.
I thought about Tidal Bay but his jumping last time out put me off and I went for an interest bet that landed no where instead.
Just put a few quid on Afsoun because I believe there is a lot more to come and 30-1 (betfair) is just stupid odds.
So far I have sustained very minimal damage from interest bets and Afsoun will be the same if it does nothing.
I'm betting for the festival not for the day. :P

If anyone has a Blue Sq account, go to the free bets part of your account and put tues5 in the promo code box and you get a free £5 bet. Has to be used today.

Seems a few people had the same idea on Afsoun but as soon as Osana went off like a horse possesed (did well to steer clear of that at least) then I knew it was all over. With that ground we needed the race to be a slog and with so many fast finishers it could have been.
On we go....
to the first race I have any confidence in so far. An Accordion an improving 7 year old that handles any ground. I'd be very dissapointed if I don't at least get a run for my money.

I got Katchit at 50p e/w.Laugh but If I'm working with no chance of seeing the race then i'm not going to put big money on as there is no thrill better than seeing your horse win at Cheltenham save for the National.Seeing the result on teletext just isn't the same.

Fair play mate. Same reason I left off after the last race on C4.

Finished even which I will take. Enjoyed the festival and lost no money. That'll do.
