1 The Pro
Everyone knows how humidity variation affects their Cheltenham picks, right?
The Pro has done their homework, and they aren’t afraid to tell you about it. Meteorological patterns? Alright pal. Grass blade density? Right you are mate. Mud-to-worm coefficient? Why of course.
Christmas Day in the Pro household is spent studying the Cheltenham ante-post form.
3 The Steady Eddie
Fair play. Steady Eddie has a plan - and sticks to it.
It’s just that just blindly picking out the favourite every time is as boring as an afternoon in Arthur’s Bar with James Milner.
Imagine going through the card… and winning £2.60. Well done, pal.
4 The Beginner
Lives their life by the mantra KISS - keep it simple, stupid.
