Cheltenham 2021 – Day Two Diary

After a positive first day of Cheltenham I was hoping things would carry over to Day Two on Wednesday. 

Just a reminder I am tracking my results from this year’s festival using a twofold strategy, which is:

1. To use all the bookies offers, brought together via Profit Maximiser; and

2. Use two of my favourite tipsters – Quentin Franks Racing and the Bet Alchemist – to find the best bets for Cheltenham. Both have excellent records at the festival so I am following their tips for the week.

By combining the above two together, this should give me a good chance of beating the bookies this week.

So how did this strategy get on today? Let’s have a look below.

 

Day Two Results

After yesterday’s profit of £50 it was a somewhat of a mixed day on the official bets, although once again I landed a big win on my unofficial bets. 

So here are the results from Wednesday at Cheltenham. My stakes were £20 per point.

 

1.20 Ballymore Novices’ Hurdle

Just the one bet in this race and that was Bravemansgame advised by Quentin Franks. It was no match for the eventual winner Bob Olinger, but no harm done as by using free bets available with Skybet and Spreadex on the first race I was able to get my stakes back. 

Profit/Loss from Race: £0

 

1.55 Brown Advisory Novices’ Chase

On to the second race then and Quentin Franks had advised two separate ante-post bets on Monkfish, one at 3/1 and the other at 9/4.

It just shows the importance of getting on early and the value of being a long-term member, as Monkfish went off at just 1/4, an amazingly short price.

It won of course, so a nice touch landed by Mr Franks.  

Profit/Loss from Race: +£150

 

2.30 Coral Cup Handicap Hurdle

Bet Alchemist had two selections in this race, Monte Cristo and Grand Roi, both of which finished well down the field unfortunately.

I was delighted to see Heaven Help Us romp home though at 33/1 as I backed it personally (unofficial bet). 

Profit/Loss from Race: -£60

 

4.15 Grand Annual Challenge Cup 

With no bets advised in the previous two races, it was on to the Grand Annual. Bet Alchemist had two more selections in this race, but sadly once again both finished well down the field. They also had an e/w double which failed to land.

Profit/Loss from Race: -£80

 

 

TOTAL PROFIT/LOSS FROM THE DAY: +£10

There were no bets in the final race, so the day ended up with a small profit on the official bets. It’s been Quentin who’s been carrying the show so far though with two very nice winners on the opening couple of days, whilst the Bet Alchemist has yet to register a return. Hopefully they can rectify that tomorrow.
