100-1 A DAY AT CHELTENHAM BY DOUBLE-YOUR-MONEY DAQMAN: Daqman, who tipped Holywell (WON 25-1) at Cheltenham in 2013, and gave three consecutive winning bankers, will target the Double-Your Money BETDAQ Double to win at least 50 points, doubling up for a single-unit stake to a 100-1 shot every day.
107-1 CHAMPIONS COUP: He’s had many doubles on the day at the meeting, but in 2012 was on Rock On Ruby (WON 11-1 from 17.0 on BETDAQ) and Synchronised (WON 8-1 from 11.5 on BETDAQ) for the Champion Hurdle and Gold Cup double at 107-1 with Ladbrokes.
16 LAYS IN A ROW: From 2008 to 2010, Daqman laid 16 horses on BETDAQ over three Cheltenham Festivals: every one of them lost, which means that every bet was a winner. He gave six in a row in each of 2008 and 2009 and four in 2010. His profit at 10 points a lay was 160 points.
22 WINNING BETS: By the end of the 2011 Festival, his lays total had been boosted to 21 out of 23 (ending his Cheltenham run at 17 in a row). That year’s festival was his best with 22 returns – win singles, mixed bets and lays – for 90 points profit on BETDAQ. How many doubles that would have made!
