here's your host, Emmett Kennedy. As the content continues to the Cheltenham Festival, we're going to

0:44.1

try and build up the funds with the weekend preview because last weekend, the boys shot the

0:49.1

lights out. Four winners for George Gorman. And having tipped up four or five winners the weekend before,

0:53.9

who can keep count? He only goes and bangs in six winners on last weekend's podcasts. Peter Michael, George Gorman, Andy the Nap Newton, the winning team return. And Peter, George has got his cheat sheet. He's going to tell us about it in a second for Cheltenham. Peter, you've got an offer for Final Furlan podcast listeners to follow you on Telegram for the Cheltenham Festival. Yeah, I'm doing for the whole festival, 30 quid, for my tips over the four days. So anyone that wants to join, hit me up on Twitter or Facebook, P. MicroRacing at Twitter or Peter MicroRacing at Facebook. I'm hitting for them at the right time, as you said, five winners two weeks ago, six winners last week, and the same day we got six winners in the podcast. I gave members a 12 to 1 and a, well, ended up 12 to 1 SP and a 16 to 1 winner on the same day. So it might be worth your while to follow me. Hitting form at the right time.

Take about, George Gorman. The winner of the feature race look away. What price did you put him up at? It was 12s when the podcast went out, backed into 3 to 1 favourite. The Lunar Artista was also 12s, backed into 15 to 2.

2:19.6

Club de Rev was fives into seven to two.
