Cheltenham Festival - Day 4

Hey all.

Day 4 includes the prestigious Gold Cup. I do love Cheltenham. One day I’ll go for the races (when I’m not pregnant and the kids are abit older). I have Henry tomorrow but as I have to watch racing every day as he’s obsessed with horses I should be ok to watch Cheltenham without any child tantrums.

So the winner of today’s meet was penshawdave. I've never known results like it. Extremely impressive.

Here are the scores from today:

Name Total
Penshawdave 67
Middlesexwhite 52
Pags 47
Idontlikemondays 37
Igør Rampard 35
Sir Kenneth Bates 35
D’Jeezus Mackaroni 20
Side before self 15
Paulpowerfulhamfan 10
Shentini 10
LeedsSouth 9
NJS 5

The aim of the game;

Choose a horse from each of the 7 races from Fridays Cheltenham Festival;
1.30, 2.10, 2.50, 3.30, 4.10, 4.50, 5.30

If your horse wins; 10 points, 2nd: 7 points 3rd: 5 points and 4th: 3 points and 5th: 2 points (if paying out).

Dont forget your NAP race so whichever race you want as your nap - you get double points if it places.

Here is a link to the horses racing:

You have until 12pm to get your picks to me so I can update the spreadsheet and I will update later on Friday night who the overall winner is.

Good luck on the final day!

Happy picking!

Cheers for the comp. Top player to bottom player in one easy step. I picked the unfortunate horses who had bad falls today.

I’ll be on maternity next year so hopefully I’ll be able to do it

Yeah thanks a million pags, really nice of you to do it and be inclusive of all fans no matter who we follow,

No doubt, really sad for the deaths today but must be heartbreaking for the stable lads/lasses who adore them.

But that’s life, none of us know, people went to pray and horses went to work, none came home.

Hope all goes well for the new addition, take care 🙏

I'm guessing Idontlikemondays, Shentini and possibly Pags got the most points over the 4 days.

At a guess, I'd say Shentini nicked it.
