Strongly fancy Rosslea in the 4 miler on wednesday As for tomorrow the opposition to Haut Cersy has evaporated away!!! I had 4 in front of it on my ratings at the 5 day stage they are all now non runners together with a number of the nearest challangers rated below it. Backed it in this race last year when ran a blinder to be 2nd. It ran a cracker at Haydock a couple of weeks back and has "boot him home Johnners" in the saddle!! It looks the best bet tomorrow

It should win but 9-4 in a handicap at Cheltenham is a bit short.Then again it's the worst field in that race for years.

Pop onto Shrewsworld for my tips for the entire festival. I would agree with a couple of those, they do say Rosslea is a good thing in the amatuers race, and cannot see anything other than Thisthatandtother winning the Arkle.
I've looked for a bit of value in the big races as you can't go backing odds on at Cheltenham.
I thought Therealbandit was a good e/w in the biggie, and Iris's gift can put one over on Baracouda in the Stayers. Also Rooster Booster will not win tomorrow, Intersky Falcon may be a live one or possibly Specular, either way Jonjo has a strong hand in this one.
A lots going to depend on how this rain affects the going, they're already moving towards Good to Soft for tomorrow................

big question Tel - is Hayden still being a jammy git on the accumulators to follow his early season form?

We all seem to agree that the Rooster is stuffed then!!
Greg, kiss of death on yours mate, I fancy Rigmarole could be the one, if not then theRiversides suggestion of Intersky Falcon, jonjo was raving about it on an interview on william hill radio (internet) tonight.
Spoke to two Irish lads who's opinion I value highly and they say Kicking King is a dodgy jumper so Thisthatandtother must have a good chance.

Ant, he's still picking up big bucks.
Had a large double on Chelsea to win 1-0 or 2-0 last week coupled with Arsenal to do the same - result - £400. Did a 6 team accumulator the same day for another £400 and has been creaming a fortune off the dogs over the last month as well. There are always lots of good tournaments on at Monmore this time of year and he always seems to make a profit! He even did Vieria to score first or last at 33/1 the other week against Chelsea!

theRiverside, are you having trouble with that Statto lookalike behind the counter in Abbey Foregate. I try to get my bets on when he's out the back, but he slithers in takes my slips off me and takes an age to process them He invariably over or under charges me, and this after I have had to explain my betting slips to him To get a bet on the 1.30 I have to be in there by 12.45, the mans a nightmare

Fair play to the lad, he must have racked up some winnings in total this year.

Ratcliffes, the bloke is a total nightmare isn't he? He gives me the impression that he really does not have a clue, everything you ask him to do is met with a look of complete panic! He makes Dave look like the epitome of cool and efficiency ;D Mind you, I've not been in too often as nappies are very expensive and take up all my spare betting tokens! No doubt I will show my face for the racing this week but will be there in plenty of time for the off......... You a regular in there? You're not the Chinese guy who sticks £300 in the roulette machine are you
