CHELTENHAM 2013

Took the Mrs and little one to Lake Windmere (snowing!!) for Cheltenham week and managed to get punting boots on each afternoon.

I managed to win every day at the festival and on the last day I had a each way Yankee and when the first 2 won at 4-1 and 14-1 I was getting rather excited, the following 2 were 2nd and 3rd and I landed about £1200 but had been looking at 5K fig plus if had another winner in there and both of them looked like winning when turning for home (both well beat in the end).

In other news I landed a nice score cast as well, had Toon to win 2 1 with Walters coring first for Stoke at 115-1 (£10 on) and also had a bet in Europe on toon to win and Cisse to score - hence 2 last min Cisse goals won me about £1500 - very sweet.

So tomorrows bet is - toon to beat Wigan and Cisse to score at 6-1 with William Hill!!

On a more serious note - if the track is dry for final qualifying and the race later then 11-8 Vettell may well be the "bet of the season".

One of my small share horses runs tomorrow - Douglas Pasha - so far wouldn't look out of place in a Findus lasagne but hoping for a better run :) !!!

Anyway a  non P&L update at last - kind of!!
