    Why has this thread, which is a great read being derailed with 2 pages of criticism and stupid comments, what Aidan back doesn't back is up to Aidan, what I love is the write ups and big price winners, I love when I fancy a big price horse and then Aidan has tipped it aswell, you know your Saturday if off to the right note, I don't post often but I think Aidan is a top spec tipster and his threads are always fantastic, keep up the good work!!

    For me, he tipped Wounded Warrior win only and then said he gave 2nd and 4th and had Wounded Warrior each way

    Hence PC's query

    That is where it has gone pear shaped - Fer me anyway

    Hopefully we can draw a line under my huge gaff :rolleyes:

    3:35 Cheltenham


    I keep looking at this race coming to the same horse. Ex Patriot really has the look of a strong stayer, has some fairly eye-popping form already this year over shorter and will act on the ground. I think he will probably improve for the step up in trip. Even forgetting all that on actual ratings now he has very little to find with most of these. We also have to throw on a very good run last year in the Triumph Hurdle. 33/1 looks a fair few points too big. I normally wouldn’t go EW in this type of race but he is very consistent and will handle course and ground. He’s a 20/1 shot at most here.

    Cheltenham 1:50

    Potters Legend strikes me as well handicapped horse. He ran superbly in the Hennessy but didn’t look to stay. Getting dropped 5lbs for that run is a big bonus. He is a big price here because he pulled up next time out on stupid ground at Newbury over too long a trip again. I think if he can bowl along in front here with a light weight he might be much harder to catch. His course form is very good as well. 20/1 is big and I’d be happy with 16/1 or over.


    1 Point win 20/1 sky/coral/vc/betfair exch

    Cheltenham 4:10

    The stepping up in trip experiment didn’t work for Dino Velvet. This is a much weaker race than the last couple he has competed in and of a lowly mark of 121 he surly has a great chance here. He has some solid course form and should be involved here. 14/1 is value


    1 Point win 14/1 365/hills/vc

    Couldn't agree more. As you've said, has decent form both this year and last, we know he handles track and he could easily be open to improvement for trip.

    He's priced on the fact he comes from an unfashionable Irish stable but given the race is full of unknowns he's more than worth a bet.

    He was less than 3l behind Killultagh Vic giving 4lbs lto but if it was the Mullins horse lining up tomorrow he'd be sub 8/1 so 33s Ex Patriot screams value.

    As Usual threads on here get derailed by grown up children. You're doing a great job Aidan. Numbers speak for themselves. Naysayers pi$$ off.

    Agreed. This is good information. Anyone splitting hairs over going a nosejob on a 33/1 rank outsider rather than EW needs to revise their betting strategy

    Firebird Flyer was just getting involved for us last time out in the Welsh National and ran reasonably well the time before. He shouldn’t be far away here if he is on a going day. 40/1 is very big in this race.

    Had high hopes as that horse brought me lots of luck previously :( not to be today unfortunately.

    This Tread is now over after 100 bets. From just doing a quick to it looks poor enough at a 15 point profit.

    Serious downturn at the start and finish.

    I meant this to last a year and only have 40 bets which didn't work.

    I hope to drastically reduce the number of bets from now on. If i look at the figures and bets for the last year, i really have to stick to the biggest races. Nearly all the big winners come in the best races (which is more fun obviously).

    This the 12 of these treads on boards and 11 have made a profit. (just)

    Ill be doing annual 2017 figures shortly and i'm not sure what way it will go.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,014 ✭✭✭ballyargus


    A pity. Thanks for the ride Aidan. Has been good fun. I look forward to your next set of picks.

    Dipped in and out of this but I am going to be far more disciplined in following amd keeping the point system strict. Still and all I have seen a nice few bob out of it. Thanks, Aidan. Havent been doing much on the horses myself in the last while so was good to keep the interest simmering at least.


  • Registered Users Posts: 567 ✭✭✭stretchaq


    Fantastic read as always Aidan

    Many thanks
