Cheltenham Day Two/Three

When the going gets tough, the tough get going. And yesterday was tough. Off piste betting at Huntingdon and Southwell kept the boys in good spirits. Then the 3 card brag came out... before the sport moved to chatting up barmaids!

Ten races today makes it a day for stayers, so dont wade in and keep your powder dry for the outsiders in the darts tonight...

7.30 1-fourfold and 4 3-folds (LOST -21.00 - Mardle started us off well with a win, and Manley was a leg short of covering the handicap, but Barney and Taylor have started to show their class now. So at the halfway stage its looking like there is only really one semi-final place up for grabs, but all five have a shout)
Mardle+2.5 bt Jenkins 4/5
Manley+2.5 bt Wade 11/10
Lewis+2.5 bt Barneveld 10/11
Part+3.5 bt Taylor 5/6
Its all been very tight in the Premier League lately, with the exception of the resurgence of The Power. And so I think it will pay to get with the outsiders today on the handicaps, with all offering a 2.5 game start.
