Well done Stonecold
Awful week for me, lost over £1000
I save for Cheltenham, had about £400 on antepost bets ( had 100 Altior - Douvan double at 8/1 back in August) and was chasing a bit during the weekFucking hell. I lost about £60 and I thought that was a bad week. I can only assume you're quite a wealthy bloke or you have an enormous betting account cash surplus.

Only backed 2:winners all week, not good
Some great races indeed - Un De Sceaux in the Ryanair was a real treat, not least because he won me a lot of money but the way Walsh basically just let him fly was a sight to behold.I only had two winners as well, but they were both part of multiples that went wrong. One of those weeks where every favourite I opposed came in and vice versa.
Managed to get a little bit back E/W on Minella Rocco in the Gold Cup otherwise it could have been even worse. Although looking at the race I was a bit gutted it didn't win, as I reckon if he hadn't got hampered towards the back he may well have won. Just couldn't get a good enough position until it was too late.
Even though this Cheltenham went really badly for me I have to say I thought the quality of races over the 4 days was great. I can't remember any race that was just a procession.
