Anyone going? I will be there Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday throwing my money at a bunch of losers no doubt, but still one of the best sporting days out.
Looks like he is declared but no jockey shown yet. 25/1 quoted.There is a possible good value each way bet in the 2.05 at Cheltenham on Thursday if it runs. Buena Vista. I would describe it as the ECFC bet as:
1) It finds it very hard to win.
2) Its form contains a lot of noughts
3) It runs better when the ground dries up
4) It finished 2nd last year.
And more seriously it is trained by David Pipe and is well handicapped on its best form. Tempting if you can get say 20/1
As this was the ECFC bet and we did the business last night I hope lots of you were on. Its just bolted up at 16/1There is a possible good value each way bet in the 2.05 at Cheltenham on Thursday if it runs. Buena Vista. I would describe it as the ECFC bet as:

It was great to see the old Pipe racing tactic of 'catch me if you can' how many winners did Martin have with that over the years.Great tip. Sadly I've only just seen it and backed Alfie Sherrin.
Incidentally, what a peach of a ride from Hadden Frost - his old man would have been proud of that one.
Ditto - got him at 18s which I thought was a decent shout.Just backed Tricky Trickster !
Come on horsy horsy !
