TWO remarkable – and emotional – days have come and gone as we move into the second half of the Cheltenham Festival.
Templegate makes a return for day three with his Placepot selections in an attempt to help you pocket a share of the whopping £750,000 guaranteed pot!
The Placepot is a bet where you select a horse to be placed in the FIRST SIX races of any meeting. You can pick more than one horse in a race – you just multiply the number of selections in each race to calculate your stake. So for staking it’s 2x2x2x2x2x2 which adds up to 64 lines.
You can stake what you want upwards from 5p a line which would cost a total of £3.20. 10p a line is £6.40 and so on. Provided at least one in each race is placed, we get a payout!

Cheltenham day three placepot tips
LEG 1: Maughreen, Karoline Banbou
MAUGHREEN won nicely at Punchestown last time and can make her presence felt again.
KAROLINE BANBOU has proven herself at Grade 1 level and should be in the shake-up.
LEG 2: Asian Master, Springwell Bay
ASIAN MASTER was fourth in the Supreme Novices’ last season and has been third on both his chase outings. He shapes as though this longer trip will be ideal.
SPRINGWELL BAY had nine lengths in hand when winning a decent handicap here on New Year’s Day.

LEG 3: Jeriko Du Reponet, Win Some Lose Some
JERIKO DU REPONET is another who enjoyed moving up in distance when a good third at Exeter last month. The cheekpieces that go on for the first time may help him concentrate in this big field.
WIN SOME LOSE SOME is up the weights but was an impressive winner at Leopardstown latest.
LEG 4: Il Est Francais, Fact To File
IL EST FRANCAIS almost won the King George from the front at Kempton so this trip may suit better. Gets on the front end and jumps well so will take plenty of stopping.
FACT TO FILE won the Brown Advisory last season and has chased home Galopin Des Champs a couple of times over that 3m trip this term. Has a Grade 1 win over 2m4f and plenty of class so will be right there at the finish.
LEG 5: Home By The Lee, Langer Dan
HOME BY THE LEE is having a fourth crack at this race and his best effort was his third 12 months ago. He has been in excellent form this season with a comeback Grade 2 win at Navan before another victory in the Savills at Christmas. He likes decent and soft ground and looks booked for another place.
LANGER DAN is a dual Coral Cup winner is too high in the weights for handicaps these days. He was beaten on the nod for the Grade 1 Aintree Hurdle last season so has enough class for this level. He’s yet to win beyond 2m5f so has stamina to prove. But we all know he’s a different horse in the spring as his trainer keeps telling us! So this season’s modest form could easily be left behind today.
LEG 6: Thecompanysergeant, Personal Ambition
THECOMPANYSERGEANT has not been with Gavin Cromwell for long and showed lots of promise when third over hurdles at Navan latest. He has an excellent 3lb claimer on board and is dangerous going back over fences.
PERSONAL AMBITION drops down from Graded level and looks on a fair mark stepping up in trip.
