Probably the best meeting in the Racing calendar.

Im going on Tuesday, which is a nightmare because I dont get back to
Liverpool til 9.10pm, so it's gonna be a nightmare missing most of the
Inter game.

Use this thread for any tips you've had or horses you've heard about.

On the first day Im doing:

Noland in the 2.35 race - I got a tip for it 2 years ago and it
stormed the leader in the first race, just pipping him at the last. Think it was about 13-2 then.
It's been injured for a while, but has come back with 2 wins.
That's my tip for the first day - it is currently 2-1

Matt McQueen - Liverpool 1892-1928.
Only professional to - play in goal (41 appearances), Defence, Midfield, Striker, and later be Director and then to be Manager (winning a Championship) - at one club

Popular thread this! :D

Another tip is Katchit in the 3.15 tomorrow, it's about 7-1 at the moment.

Anyone else been to Cheltenham?
With this weather, will is be boggy? Not sure what footwear to wear.

Only tip I've got it Sizing Europe.  Apparently a shoe-in for the Champion Hurdle is it?  My mate told me it loves the rainy conditions as well and it's supposed to piss down this week.

Got the Tricast up in the 14:15 today.  Not bad.

What's the script for tomorrow then?

Backed a horse today at 5-1, it came in at quarter past two.
The old ones are the best. :wwww
From Shankly to Brendan we follow our team, Rome to Istanbul we've all lived the dream. Our journey is long, our goal stays the same, to keep for our children the famous red name.

Im there now at Cheltenham typing this on my mobile blower. Laid out about forty quid on the first five races to keep it interesting. Just heard we got Arsenal. Is that right?
