19th March '21 Gold Cup day

howareyakid

Selections for Day 4.

There doesn't seem to be much between the top two in the market for the Triumph, so I think Quilixios is the better bet at the bigger price.
I like the profile of Captain Kangaroo who has beaten Kilcruit in a bumper at 14/1 for the County. But he has yet to win over hurdles which would be a slight concern, so I think I'll side with You Raised Me Up, who comes into this with a bit more experience. Streets Of Doyen's handicap win over Flooring Porter was given a good boost today, so I'll side with him in what's an open race. I'm going to back the champ in what promises to be a riveting Gold Cup. Also going to hope It Came To Pass, who was an extremely impressive winner of this race last year, will show up this year with the same enthusiasm. If he does, hopefully he'll go very close again. Shattered Love is a classy horse, has course and distance form and hopefully will have a chance of overturning the odds-on Elimay. I also like the look of Frontal Assault with the impressive Jordan Gainford who steered The Shunter to victory today on board - hopefully he can go close! Let's hope for another decent day!

1:20 - Quilixios 11/4
1:55 - You Raised Me Up 8/1 e/w
2:30 - Streets Of Doyen 7/1 e/w
3:05 - Al Boum Photo 3/1
3:40 - It Came To Pass 15/2 e/w
4:15 - Shattered Love 7/1 e/w
4:50 - Frontal Assault 14/1 e/w

Watched the Atr preview and done a treble off the back of it, Mrs milner Bob olinger and Barbados bucks 5er free bet for 970.. Im sweating for the Albert Bartlet.

On others mentioned for today Ruby very sweet on galopin des champs in the Martin pipe so sweet I backed it at 16s now into 6s

hawkeyethenoo

Adrimel is the ab looks a massive price at 14/1. looks a dour stayer and might be handy and be hard to pass. has only ever ran on deeper ground though but worth a shot at the prices in an open race

sydthebeat

ABP and APT to come first 2 @7/1 with PP

I like the Minella Indo pick. For me when looking at the race, it came down to him and Al Boum Photo. I could prove to be off the mark there, but I feel Minella Indo could have a big run today! Threeubderthrufive would have been my pick of the British runners as well in the AB. Best of luck!

There’s a few tricky races today for sure, so I’d be lying if I said I was really confident myself! But let’s hope for another enjoyable and profitable one!

Timberrrrrrrr

This has been.my first year where I'm actually in profit in the final day so whatever happens today I've had a ball following the threads and has been some great races.

Tritonic in the first for me, sky giving money back if 2nd 3rd or 4th.

Native river because I think the old dog has one last big race to win.

Also have a small e/w on Aso, with sky paying 5 places I think he may be able.to sneak in at the tail end of them so fingers crossed.

Will pick more as the day goes on and we start getting reports about horses/jockeys/ground etc

G'luck to everyone.

Larbre34

Tenner accumulator for Rachael's 5 mounts to win 2.3 million.

realdanbreen

Kemboy to rise from the dead and deliver the gold cup at 20/1!

Joe_ Public

The appeal of Gabynako in the martin pipe is eminently understandable but i suspect there are at least a couple of potential handicap blots lurking there. Folcano and Commanding presence are two I'd be wary of.

Fitz*

I have backed Al Boom Photo for the Gold Cup, but I'd like to see Champ win it.

Frozen Veg

The gold cup is set up for a Frodon win.

pottokblue

MattChap will only be delighted to share his charm with BFrost. Its been a quiet festival 21 for Frost but Frodon and Frost are in my memory bank for winning the Ryanairchase in 2019. My mega fantasy bet is on Champ to WIN, wish Barry was on Champ ,Barry had two winners in 2019 on the same ticket as Frodon, Siruhdulac, Paisleypark, Anysecondnow happy memories!!!

piplip87

1.20- Quilixios
1.55- Champagne Gold/Drop the Anchor
2:30 Ngolo (Ante Post) Could be one for the flat though.
3.05 Kemboy. A Plus Tard (Ante Post)
3.40 Stand up and fight.

Haven't had a look at the last two properly.

Lucy8080

E.W. double

1.55 Gowel Road 12/1
2.30 Alaphilippe 12/1

E.W L.31

1.55 Gowel Road 12/1
2.30 Alaphilippe 12/1
3.05 Frodon 16/1
3.40 Bob And Co 9/2
4.50 Fire Attack 12/1

Have to stick a tenner e.w. on Santini 11/1, because I'm a romantic fool. Or, possibly just a fool!

Morleystreet

Rewatched last year County Hurdle and Buildmeupbuttercup travelled really really well. While she finished 4th, the 2/3/4th had nothing between them, beaten by Saint Roi on the day. Think she has a great chance here and at a good price.

Buddy97mm

Like Lostintranslation in GC 25/1. Close 3rd in last years renewal, a few bad runs this season when stable horrifically out of form. Showed glimpses of ability lto in Newbury, should set him up for today. Great ew value.

FiftyP

I'm already on the beers for a day of racing. My weekend is going to be hell. I was feeling it from 8am.

If you’re doing small stakes then go ew accum, you won’t sleep for months if you do a place accum and they all win

Chesty has inspired me to try one of these place accas.

Barbados Bucks
Frodon

clevtrev

with bet365 ITV 4/1 winner offer I never really paid much notice to it but I don't recall ever receiving a message telling me I had a free bet in the next race after I had a winner. Anybody availed of it this week and did you get confirmation that you were getting it? Also, I assume it expires if you don't bet on the next ITV race

You would be just as sick if all bar one win doing e/w, best to split the e/w stakes in place only and win only

You would normally get a prompt when you make a selection , i.e use cash or free bet, in my experience on other sites.

rm212

I’m nicely in profit with money to withdraw from days 1-3 even with today’s generous bets placed, have had an absolute blast this year!

Since I’m playing with the bookies money, I’ve gone with a load of interesting E/W contenders today.

13:20 Adagio E/W
13:55 Strong Glance E/W, small stake on Mengli Khan E/W
14:30 Adrimel E/W and Alaphilippe E/W
15:05 Native River E/W and Royale Pagaille E/W
15:40 Hazel Hill E/W and Mr Mantilla E/W
16:15 Zambella E/W and Magic of Light E/W
16:50 Martinhal E/W

None of these may come in but it’ll be a fun day nonetheless. I think they have decent placing chances for their odds, especially with lots of extra places on offer today.

If you back a horse 4-1 or better and he wins, then your 'risk free' bet can be put on the next race. You use our own funds to place the bet and if it doesn't come through Bet365 will refund you. You won't get a prompt to place this bet, it's up to you to do. You can bet the equivalent of your original stake for the 4-1 (or better) win

dk6dk6

Tritonic turning into an each way bet to nothing.

Like Gowel Road in the 1.55

With A Plus Tard and Frodon making running (possibly) there will be no hiding place in Gold Cup, and I think if SANTINIIII can lie up with leaders, Nicky and Nico:P Aidan have got a right good chance in this.. I think the poshest jockey has picked wrong horse :pac:

Vanilier 2.30 shortening from 22 to 14s last hour

Native River will take them along, A Plus Tard won’t make it. Blackmore will give A Plus Tard the same ride Robbie Power gave Sizing John. This is the best Gold Cup in years, after a couple of very poor renewals this is the strongest field probably since 2008 or 2009.

realdanbreen

What radio station is covering cheltenham, internet or otherwise. I thought BBC radio 5 did it.

hawkeyethenoo

haven’t got excited in recent years for the gold cup and today is the same, don’t feel like it has any superstars. can’t warm to al boum photo even though he’s a very good horse and a dual winner.

2010 had Kauto Star Denman and Imperial Commander, 2011 the 3 above plusLong Run. Easily stronger fields than today imo

Val Joyce will be on soon with Airs and Races.

Failing that, Talksport has daily coverage. Might have to download the app first, not sure.

The longer I look at the Gold cup the closer I get to backing Champ. Think it's between him and Al boum and can see Champ snatching it on the line.
