CHELTENHAM FESTIVAL 2026

What a finish and what a price 😍

228/1 on Betfair 

Good two days racing so far and profitable!
Hope it has been so for everyone.

Craig's interview with the whole team in the background. LOVE the Hollywoodbets punt!

Sorry couldn't do video 

What a great second day 

Have said enough about il était temps but this was very special. 
Gold Cup 🏆 next year is my prediction. 

Day three 
Bambino Fever should win opener 
Wodhooh does not have Lossiemouth to beat and can also arrive. 
Teahupoo is also a good sort .
JP MCMANUS has Fact to File and the incredible JONBON running 
JP also has strong hand in last 

Good Punting 👍 

We used to live in R 2 SIXMILEBRIDGE, outside Limerick on the way to Shannon Airport.Will have e/w with some confidence.

R 4 BALLYBURN used to be all the rage a year ago.Interesting that Townend still rides!

R 5 Ideal distance for BANBRIDGE.

A bit of room in prices with these three.

Day 3 is here and some big names out today, gonna be a great days racing ahead 

Think day 3 will be plenty upsets and hopefully i find the donkeys
race 1: bambino fever not for me, Manganese and Echoing silence each way
race 2: western night , old man dingle each way 
race 3: Woodoh not for me , Jade de grugy banker in everything
race 4: Bob olinger has done me some good turns and i will not be deserting him today 

race 5: fact to file also looks vulnerable , only real danger is impaire et passe , jonbon record at cheltenham is putting me off this one 
race 6: minella emperor and minella sixo eachway 
race 7: road to home to close the day for the mullins yard 
Best of luck to all

People have a look at the stats on Miss Gina Andrews.... she is phenomenal.  Below is from 1462 rides. Yesterday she finished a decent 5th on a 40/1 shot Latenightpass fading late.

Wins                    Places
                         432 (55%)                      
376 (26%) ........  

I have four doubles and one treble on her to win or first 5 place on INSURRECTION in the last . Form no great shape recently but has won 4 and placed 7 times from 16 starts. Last year at this very meeting ran 8 out of 19 beaten 18L in a Group Two.

Current Odds on WSB is 67/1 and I have taken plenty small doubles and trebles {crosses fingers superstitously} .... if it runs last I wont worry, is racing.

Play well folks and break a leg and we pray NO horse does the same !!!

Besides a P/A my plays are around Manganese, The Bluesman / Jordan Cross, Jade De Grugy, Fact to File and of course Insurrection.
