Not quite worth me taking time off, but I will be glued to 5Live for the commentaries, hoping to have got one over on Betfair.
Any tips for today, folks?
Theatre Queen in the 4.40 could be worth an e/w punt. If she doesn't pull a Mad Moose and refuse to start, I really fancy her to go well.

I'm off today but for the first time in about 20 years I haven't taken the week off on annual leave for Cheltenham as I'm currently working extra hours to cover until my new line manager starts in April - however my work has been told in no uncertain terms that I am outtathere by 11am AT THE LATEST tomorrow and midday on Thursday unfortunately I am in a seniors meeting that morning but even they have been told 12 o'clock I am walking... I only agreed to be at the meeting as the venue is actually closer to home than the office lol
Did just do my "silly bet" of the day took 50/1 on Sail By The Sea in The Arkle - market clearly thinks something is up with the horse as he's gone out from 7/1 and I wouldn't normally back a drifter like that but given no obvious reason for the huge price swing I took an e/w punt with him placing in mind.
The New One 5/1 is a BIG price - antepost he barely reached 6's and he was only 4/1 when I backed him lol

I'm not a massive fan of his, but my silly bet of the day is a 25p e/w acca on AP's five rides. That I'd get 19.5k back from my 50p tells me all I need to know Sent from my HTC One_M8 using proboards

Indian Castle in the 2.40...............E/W I'm hoping Theatre Guide does well in the 2.40. Couldn't resist a little Guide/Queen double. Sent from my HTC One_M8 using proboards

I've just made £40 profit on two lunchtime loose change scratchies. Either my luck is in and I'm going to slaughter Betfair and 365 today or I have used all of my luck and won back most of my £50 Cheltenham budget. Either way I'm happy Sent from my HTC One_M8 using proboards

Tell them to get off the roads! Lost drivers doing 3 point turns at a 4 way traffic light system. Mental!! Theres about 17 million ways to get to Cheltenham from Stroud. Accidents waiting to happen.

Hurricane Fly and Polly Peachum landed small profits for me, but Betfair are ahead for the day. So far.
Come on Theatre Queen!

***SARIN's GRAND NATIONAL PROTIP***
Across the Bay 40/1 - unlucky last year with a loose horse, been losing weight recently and is in poor form atm considering some of the crap that it's lost to . Will pick up some wins and weight in the next 20 days to avoid "suspicion", will jump well on the National and if it's still in it by the third to last it'll take a very good horse to beat it. Bet E/W.

Gutted about Theatre Queen. I know that sort of thing is part of the game, but losing a horse never gets any easier and I'm just a punter.

Thomas Crapper placed. No first day winners. No freebies from Betfair.
I'll lick my wounds in the pub after work and see what's what for tomorrow!
