    Hope your other ones get fu*cked, mind.

    That's a nice looking antepost book Euro. I don't agree with all but whether I do or not you've snaffled plenty of value.

    Touch wood I'm happy with my final position too which I'll post up by the end of the the weekend. Just a little concerned about the ground for a few.

    Thanks. Ground wise only really concerned with Singlefarmpayment and Might Bite. Also Monalee if he goes RSA but hopefully I'll have monster cover with PP.

    Saying this touching the largest bit of wood I can find, I've got a pretty good position running into next week.

    There are a couple of singles that won't get a run, and a couple more that have ended up being poor prices. I'm also pretty sure I've got a few more in one of my accounts that I can't find at the moment that I need to sort out as well, so the list might not be complete.

    I'd be concerned about the ground for Singlefarmpayment, and have varying degrees of concern about Might Bite, Jury Duty, and Snow Falcon getting home on soft going. Probably less so Might Bite who I still feel is beginning to shape like a proper stayer.

    I'm really happy with my positions on my multiples. I have Finians in a couple which actually turns out to be a bonus as I'd written them off, although I can't see him winning.

    The other one I over did early was Unowhatimeanharry who I'd have no confidence in. Although the reports are encouraging with Harry Fry saying he's the best he's had him for eighteen months, so I feel better about him as I did particularly as I think this is a weaker renewal than last year.

    My biggest concern though is the ground for Cause Of Causes. He's a really big player through my multiples and to my mind he's very ground dependant. If Buveur D'Air and Altior both come in I can see me checking cash out availability or playing around on Betfair laying him to a position. Let's see.

    I also think I've got a couple of missing multiples somewhere in an account that I can't put my finger on, almost certain,y the same account as the singles I can't find. Either that or I'm going Festival stir crazy and I'm now imagining things.

    I've just found one I missed. I doubled up on the Buveur D'Air, Altior, Unowhatimeanharry, Might Bite Acca, so the return is actually 4961.26.

    Too many bets to count.....and that’s just the ones that are already minced.

    Best position is around Our Duke, who I have in a few doubles with The Biter in the KG. He is a £9k horse for me. He becomes a £25K horse, if Altior consents in the Champion Chase.

    I’m also in a communal pot (with two absolute wankers) that's in reasonable shape, and has some nice positions on Footpad, Might Bite, Presenting Percy, Monalee, Samcro and King’s Socks, amongst others.

    I don't have much - compared with you guys - ante-post.

    I have very little in the way of multiples either.

    I have a very speculative ew double on Debuchet (Supreme 33/1) and SDR (Gold Cup 66/1) which I'm not prepared to give up on.

    Less speculative, I reckon, and for which I still hold fair hopes, are ew trebles and an accumulator on Sharjah (16/1), Santini (9/2), Rhinestone 8/1 and Mr Adjudicator.

    Apart from that it's now a handful of singles, really after all the NRNB withdrawals.

    DO
    Bet 365 - According to the To return on my my bets page. Think multiple races,different days.
    As mentioned in a previous post I don ‘t think all would win but it gives multiple options. Picking 4/6 is easier than 4/4,

    I cashed out a fair few of my positions for the same stake as the ground had put me off. The likes of Foxtail Hill, John Constable and a few others. Only 365 allow you to do this if other firms did I'd have certainly cashed out a few more and started mostly from scratch.

    Getabird Supreme 8/1
    Saint Calvados Arkle 10/1 e/w
    Apples Jade Mares 4/5 (nrnb)

    Samcro Ballymore 5/4 (nrnb)
    Douvan QMCC 9/2 and 7/1 (latter is nrnb)
    Min QMCC 7/1 (nrnb)

    Min Ryanair 12/1 (almost certainly lost)
    Douvan QMCC/Min Ryanair double (as above)
    L'Ami Serge Ryanair 40/1 e/w (nrnb)
    Movewiththetimes Byrne Playe 12/1 e/w

    Redicean Triumph 7/1

    Have a few specials, main one being Elliott/Mullins/Hendo to win 13 (10/1) 14 (9/1) and 16 (25/1) races between them.
    A strange special Hills offered for Might Bite to lead the Gold Cup at the last and fail to win at 12/1

    Also have a load of small stake multiples, pretty much all of Skybets pushes in the last week or so

    Now for the day of race bets

    Supasundae win is worth the price of a 2017 pick up truck to me

    Could do without this rain but let's hope for some happy motoring
    Some people say he’s the best since Arkle and that’s certainly true when you look at what he’s done

    Literally can't be arsed typing all mine out. Some dead many more alive.

    A Finians Oscar win and a few favourites coming home means I probably won't have to work ever again. That's a long way off though.

    It doesn't matter if every horse I backed AP goes on to lose, if Might Bite wins the GC I'm guaranteed profit on the week. Some nice positions with him in the market.

    Been quite fortunate that I managed to get NRNB on A few, just means some of my multiples change to trebles and double etc.

    Anyone got anything left? I have these but for not very much money (3 figures)

    I got Buvi, Samcro with Footpad going on to Native River at 49/1

    also Buvi 4 Altior 2.75 Might Bite 8 for a 87/1 treble

    Biggest bummer was yesterday when I had UDS at 7.5 as the other leg of my yankee and my fav jockey did me.

    Might Bite and Apple's Shakira on a couple of legs, a fair few died with UDS, including a 4 figure payout after Penhill won.

    Might Bite is huge for me today. A Whisky Sour win wouldn't go unnoticed either.

    Very good day yesterday with Penhill and The Storyteller winning. L'ami Serge not placing was a big blow though.
