Had the last 2 winners of the day to dig me out of a hole after Goshen earlier
 
Had one JP handicap hurdle fav this week - the one that jumped like a fridge in the last. Love it.

Took insurance on Column of Fire who crashes at the last when about to bolt up.

Would have been a catastrophic loss without the ante post on Burning Victory.
 
Goshen and Column of Fire just summed today up. Lostintranslation ran a magnificent race though in a top class gold cup.
 
Sorry guys, the spreadsheet cacked itself last night.

Thanks Nando, enjoyable as always.

So my figure is just money back not profit. Based on the £560 stakes for the week that puts me over £300 down!
 
Yeh, only three of the forum making any profit for the week!

I've added another column on the total sheet to reflect stakes - inc for those who didn't tip each day for a fairer reflection.
 
Cheers Nando, bit of a tight one. Just kept me head above water IRL...
 
Thanks for that Nando, enjoyable even if it was worst Cheltenham that I ever had.
 
Thanks Nando. Someone has to come last!
Strangely I've been doing pretty well with horses running elsewhere in my 'tracker' lately.
 
Cheers two good days followed by two awful for me.
 
An enjoyable few days. Thanks for running this Nando and well done to Billy for retaining his title.
 
Cheers Nando. Annoyed that I missed the final day but I had a really shitty night shift Thursday and a busy Friday morning!
