I'm amazed to hear the negativity on here about Cheltenham! The amount of money in the market makes it a grand trading opportunity

I suppose that's because I'm not so focused on the racing, rather I just see it as a good trading opportunity.

Biggest piece of advice I can offer to anyone trading it for the first time - be very careful on the other cards happening at the same time. They can be treacherous, especially when considering the emotion that trading a Cheltenham market can bring.
£85m traded last year, no need to be negative about that!

Cheltenham announced this morning that they are thinking of re-schedulding the XC chase.

Clerk of the course saying double the amount of rain has fell than they expected soft/heavy in places should mix it up a bit.

I'll have a look at the Venetia Williams runners shortly they love the slop.

My first time trading the festival.

Unfortunatley im starting the day behind as my two antepost selections have fallen behind in the market.

Trying to focus on the new opportunities. Good luck to everyone i hope its enjoyable!

I see one of my volatility bots has already got involved - really wasn't expecting that at Chelts...

I watched her in an interview in the paddock once, she said she will not run her horses at all on firm ground as they are more likely to be seriously injured. She really cares about her horses.

1/28 for false starts. Wonder if they can get a clean sweep this year.
