Cheltenham 2022 new thread.

It's four weeks to go and a great article from Racing Post to get our brain cells moving .

A look at the early fancies

www.racingpost.com/news/four-weeks-to-go...estival-races/538058

Many early posts are on the site and a few fesival bankers have been highlighted.

The prices are shorter now, however still a few ATCs to consider.

Honeysuckle will be the festival highlight and obvious banker.

A post from 2 weeks ago

It should give us some more insight into Cheltenham.

Saturday and Sunday we have a feast from Ireland.

LEOPARDSTOWN where the Irish Gold Cup will see Frodon, Kemboy, Minella Indo and Asterion Forlong to find out who can give A Plus Tard and Galvin a go at the festival.

Fil Dor vs Vauban should be a good clash and FACILE VEGA a blinder.

On the Sunday more stars in action GALOPIN DES CHAMPS, CHACUM POUR SOI, SIR GERHARD and the great HONEYSUCKLE all on show.


Suggest a few ATC with above stars ⭐️

Good Punting

Note!

Vauban, Facile, Galopin , Chacum, Gerhard and Honey ALL won......😉

Not Cheltenham related but for the Grand National.

All the talk is on the 10yo mare Snow Leopardess. Won over the National Course in December 2021 at Aintree. Near the bottom of the weights and at 20/1 after winning at Exeter over the weekend.

Everyone loves a grey and whats amazing Snow Leopardess gave birth while recovering from an injury. A mother to win the National....

Really love this one and has the fairy story linked to the National 😉

The magnificent seven that will make or break the festival for punters and bookies.

HONEYSUCKLE
GALOPIN DES CHAMPS
SHISHKIN
FACILE VEGA

ALLAHO

It's been a long time since I did manual settling in a bookies (over 50 years) and took written bets over the counter but with 7 horses ?

One ATC
21 x doubles
35 x trebles
35 x foursomes
21 x five timers
7 x six timers

Should give you at R10 a line total R1200

Ask your bookie and don't be shy with the R10 stake 😉

Intrigued that Appreciate It has not had a run out this season.
Won the Supreme last year by 24LNo doubt will be fresh and fit for race.
Has to give Honeysuckle 7lb ???
Shrewd move by Mullins to bring Energumene to Ascot as he will know where he stands with Shishkin.Very tough horse to beat.
Ryanair unable to call as too many Q Mother and Gold Cup enrtries could be involved.
About at least 6 horses have a chance in Gold Cup.Like Galvin.

Live preview starting 8:00pm SA time

Cheers Bob

Just thought I would mention that BUVEUR DAIR runs a Kelso today at 7/1 🙄

Talk that Energumene may duck Q Mother for Ryan Air Chase!
