The kind of money that some people gamble with blows my mind. The most I have ever put on a horse was £50. It won, but I felt sick from the moment I put the bet on.
Same, my biggest was £65 and i was dead nervous for it haha.
The 2 things I like to achieve at Cheltenham are to be on that one STAT horse that sticks out that far that it looks the winner before the race has even started, last year was Fingeronthepulse and get that one bet up that not many other people would have picked, last year was Silver Jaro, the year before Mistanoora TBP. _________________ Forest are Treemendous

I am going in with £400 and if I came out with somewhere close to that it will be a result. If I get lucky and win a few bob the wifes birthday is coming up _________________ My dog is my god
I've had a few a/p bets on 2 horses really. Madison du Berlais who I really fancy for the Gold Cup and Traffic Control at 100/1+ in the Albert Bartlett, both on the final day. If they win, all my loans, and credit cards will be paid off and still have enough left over for a decent holiday and a decent Cheltenham fighting fund for next year. Will most likely budget for about £20 a day. That's really enough for me.
Well all my antepost bets so far have came from winnings in which i havent included in my spreadsheet so AP bets anything i get is a positive, i am quite hopefull on them. Id like to clear 4 figures.
Not quite 4 figures but not that far off. I expected to come back empty handed and im far from it so a good festival. The memorys of Wednesday will probably be with me forever! _________________ Wolves winner 20.1.08

and this years YY...............?????????????
Clew Bay Cove was the Stat horse that really stuck out this year which obviously lost and with nearly all the bookmakers having so many place concessions there were hardly any TBP horses that I could be Justified in backing.
The one i backed on the TBP as well as E/W was A New Story but thats because 1/4 first 4 was the best I could see on the X Country. _________________ Forest are Treemendous
Great racing but a very disappointing effort on the punting front. Thought I would make a lot on Thurs/Fri but they turned out to be my bad days. Must do better . . . .
I finished £111-99p up on the week which I am well happy with as I only bet small stakes. _________________ A tips only a good one if its a winning one
I ended up with my stakes back (which i always count as winnings as was prepared to lose that) plus about another £20 odd quid on top. Had a couple of winners each day. Wednesday being the worst and Thursday being the best with the double on Imperial Commander and Big Bucks being the main reason for the weeks stakes coming back in 1 bet.
Loved the racing, so many good finishes and excitement.
Denman running well was the highlight for me.
