I don't think the odds have changed. It seems to be eveyone's banker. Anyway I'll be at work tomorrow so probably won't bet on that race as won't be able to see it, but good luck. Any tips for Friday's races much appreciated (apart from Gold Cup, I already know who's going to win that one).

Ok Quids, the equines' derriere has spoken...


Supreme - Cousin Vinny (favourite but still good value, have backed it all season so would be rude not to);


Arkle - Tatenen (ditto but also expect Forpadydeplasterer to put in a good performance, so worth an each way bet);


Will Hill Trophy - Give this one a miss;


Champion Hurdle - Binocular should win, but will also have some each way on Jered and/or Crack Away Jack;


Give the last two races the bum steer too, but if you're chasing your money Carole's Legacy in the David Nick Hurdle is worth a punt;


Good luck everybody!...:)-D

Hi Mark, the SP is the starting price, the odds at the time the race starts.

You can ask for the price at the time the bet is placed if you think the odds are likely to shorten, therefore increase your returns if the horse wins, the downside is if the odds get longer e.g. 10/1 out to 12/1, your return wouldn't be as great if you had left it at the SP, confused? you soon will be! hope this helps though...:)

Might be too busy tomorrow morning so here are my tips for Wed...


Ballymore Novices - Mad Max (unbeaten, likes a battle, so might find the course to his liking);


Rsa Chase - What a Friend (letting my heart rule my head on this one, horse is owned by Fergie, hopefully a good

omen for the evening match!);


Queen Mum (Gawd bless 'er) Champion Chase - Well Chief (an each way bet, or a straight forecast with red hot favourite Master Minded);


Coral Cup - Franchoek (really open race, gone with a horse with some previous on this course);


Last 2 races - no idea...

Ok Red Devil -the punters friend - we should listen to you. I'm about to start tomorrows research now (now that Mrs M has finished on the family laptop) and I'll check out the above first. Were you a net winner today? Hope you were.

But Cheltenham is the toughest betting week of the year with so many good horses, but you have just got to join in.


My (now wealthy) friend pointed out that Mc Grath on the front of the Telegraph sport section napped Punjabi today, hence so many people being on it. I bought the Telegraph, but as I had my bets on already I did not get round to reading it (oh dear).

Got out of jail with Forpadydeplasterer, decided to go for a win instead of each way after Cousin Vinny flopped...

Special bet paid out a ?52+ return for a ?15 stake, so that was a good return, not too confident at all about tomorrow though, like you say so many good horses but that's what makes Cheltenham special...

      New Empanada Place on LL

      By dan b · Posted

      London doesn’t have a lot of Argentinian places specialising in empanadas, which suggests demand isn’t that great. There are many neighbourhoods with none at all or even nearby.  So for a mini-chain like Chango (several branches in SW London) to open here where there’s already a well established family run place doing the same feels a bit off.  I’ll be giving Chacarero my ongoing custom.

      Has anyone retrospectively fit aircon in a loft conversion?

      By redjam · Posted

      This is so helpful, everyone, thank you. @green bean Yes we have just (as of yesterday) installed the same external blinds you mention! We already had blackout blinds and we now have the external awnings too. Of course that will guarantee the end of the summer sunshine but I can see that they're going to be helpful as they let the light through but not the glare of the sun - I'm fed up of working in darkness with both the blackout blinds closed on sunny days. We'll see how we go with those for a bit but I reckon we'll get a couple of quotes from the other recommendations in case we end up going the whole hog. @penfold Love the idea of getting solar+batteries to offset the electricity usage so will look into that.  Thanks, all.

      Councillor Jon Hartley

      By MaryT · Posted

      Yes Sally, I've emailed him several times since Xmas. I don't contact Councillors frequently but when I've done so over the years, I've found them generally engaged and responsive. It's unprecedented to just be ignored and, regardless of the query I'm raising, that's worrying from the point of view of  our local democratic voice. Its a Councillors role to represent local people! A different thread on here made reference to a lack of response from one of our ward councillors and, since there are only two, I'm guessing it's the same one. I'm following up my own concern separately but I'm asking on here about whether others have had the same problem. I'd like to think it's a one-off but, increasingly, I suspect it's not. Hope that gives a bit more context!
