Cheltenham Day 3 closes after a hair raising shake up on both the Tipster and Buster Leaderboards.

Tipster Report
π
Front of the pack at the close of business today is Ray Kennedy on 410 points.
His big shot 33/1 Home By The Lee catapults him into a comfortable lead.
π₯
Timmy Coffey came from nowhere today and is hot on his heels in 2nd place on 356.25.
π₯
Up from 4th, finishing in 3rd on 314, Richie Pecks.
He held his nerve, picking two great nags today.
His feet are firmly planted inside the winners circle going into Day 4.
π₯
David O'Sullivan drops from 2nd for 4th place and rides out Day 3 on 253.3.
He's still in the prizes but is teetering and needs to pick wisely to keep his Leaderboard position tomorrow.
π
Right behind the leaders, in the danger zone you'll find Fiona Collins in 5th on 241.25.
She had slow day today but is not to be ignored.
π°
Jerry O'Connell in 6th on 218.75.
He's a man in the know and will be saving his best hand for the last deal tomorrow.
π΅οΈ
And in 7th Kitty & Sheila on 208.75.
The ladies had a stinker of a day on the board. They must get back in the saddle and crack the whip if they want to finish on the winners podium.
π
Nice to see Ronan Walsh finally joining in the fun. He waited until today to score his first point! Let's see if he has more winners up his sleeve for tomorrow.
π
Causing absolutely no threat whatsoever to anyone are Jonathan Casey and Tom O'Donnell. The only two yet to score.

The Buster Report
π
Like a bat out of hell Ger Casey swoops into
Pole Position with a whopping 722.5.
Ger is no stranger on Dan's winning podium so it's no surprise to see him here today.
π₯
John's 8 get bumped down to 2nd and finish on 530.95. With all hands on deck and the finish line in sight the lads must throw everything at this tomorrow.
π₯
Finishing in 3rd place on 515.95 Ger Moss found his winning form again today with some great selections.
He can't take his eye off the ball tomorrow.
π₯
Ciara Cronin is hot on his tail on 506.54.
π₯
Jessie G isn't giving them any breathing space and is biting on 480.59.
π
Donnagh Moynihan remains a serious threat with 477.20.
π΅οΈ
Paul Shine on 418.04 has climbed the board by steadily tipping away and we can be sure he'll be ready to attack tomorrow.
π
It's all to play for across all the boards.
βοΈ
Day 4 usually sees wildcards and bombs thrown at it in a 'devil may care' fight to the end.
π£
And that's what makes Cheltenham the rollercoaster ride we all love!
β€οΈ
Pick some winners and enjoy the big day tomorrow - Gold Cup Day!
