Vroom vroom mag is a lovely horse but crap odds for tomorrow

£20 on £86 back. Hoping to use that as playing money up til Thursday as I'm at the Gold Cup on Friday!

It's impossible to oppose Douvan with the next one. It won the Grade 1 novice hurdle at Cheltenham last year on good to soft, so the ground won't be a problem and it's already beaten Sizing John, the 3rd favourite, by 18 lengths in a Grade 1 novice chase.
Douvan's never been threatened over fences yet however, so if Vaniteux can stay with Douvan and put it under pressure, it might force Douvan into a couple of jumping mistakes. That's the only way I can see it failing to win.

ALTIOR easiest decent priced win bet all day

Not sure about the previous form as Altior and Min both previously won Grade 2's, so you couldn't really split them, although Altior has previously won at Cheltenham and I thought Altior was the speedier type who would suit the firmer ground better, as it showed with the finish.
I picked Buveir D'air because it beat Wait For Me by 11 lengths and I thought the ground would suit it as well. I was probably influenced by the odds of Buveir D'air being 10/1, but I thought it was a cast iron each way bet and worth a punt over Altior.
Well done with your win.

Southfield Royale for the next one, simply because it's been in good form this season and it has Nina Carberry on it.
How Nina Carberry is allowed to compete in an amateur riders race is beyond me, as she's better than most of the professional males!

Very true, Nina Carberry a very successful jockey to follow good luck with the bet! I'm only prepared to play with vroum vroum mag winnings and got to last 3 more days!!

Cheers, but I haven't bet a penny today, I'm just trying to pick them for fun to see how I would have done. I would have had an overall successful day today so far, which is encouraging as I'm going on Friday. If I can do as well as today when I'm there Friday, I will be delighted to have a great day out and not lose any money.
If I was there today, I would do Southfield Royale each way in the next race, and Javert each way in the final race at 5.30. Let's see how I do, I love the races.
Well done on your winnings today.
