Great Gold Cup
I backed Bravemansgame and he ran his heart out living up to his name but Galopin Des Champs is some horse.
Whatever dosh the bookies lost on the Gold Cup they recouped in the 4.10, 66/1 winner and a tricast paying £59,185.51 :shock:
Galopin Des Champs has got multi Gold Cup written all over him

Re: Cheltenham 2016 (Long running competition)
I've just checked my results for today, how is this for a roll call of *****?
3, 17, PU, PU, F, RR, 10
That RR (refused to race) sums up my festival. Jockey must have told the horse that he was one of my picks!
Think I can safely say I'm languishing near the bottom of the final table when r99c totals everything up.

Re: Cheltenham 2016 (Long running competition)
12 winners is a good effort, congratulations patricklambe and as always, many thanks r99c for pulling it all together.
Twasn’t a vintage Festival and for me, Day one was the highlight with Constitution Hill and Honeysuckle coming back to the winner’s enclosure at different stages of their careers. I would love to see Constitution Hill make a successful defence and then try the fences before having a go at emulating Dawn Run with the Champion Hurdle/Gold Cup double.

Re: Cheltenham 2016 (Long running competition)
Well done Patricklambe, a worthy winner with that amount of winners. A profitable few days for me with 18/1 & 25/1 winners and a few nice priced places.
Thanks as always to Rich for organising
