Good luck today Col, see we have gone for a couple of the same selections, which usually spells disaster

In the 2.40 at Kemptom, Nick Williams has had 3 winners from 6 runners in this race in the past 10 years. He's running Dentley De Mee and Man From Mars today and I prefer the 66/1 shot Man from Mars. Harry Cobden isn't riding too badly at the moment and although Lizzie Kelly would be the stables preferred jockey, I don't think she could do the weight, so not reading too much into the jockey bookings. The fact they are going for this race as the first one of the season suggests to me the stable have been protecting his mark, so definately worth a small each way bet. /waits for Dentley to win by 50 lengths now/

12.40 at Warwick. The money for Destined to Shine is interesting but I'm sticking with With Pleasure for an each way bet at 8/1.

2.25W Kris Spin EW

In the 2.50W Slanelough should like this slower ground better than when he came second last time out. Will add him to make an EW Lucky 15 with the ones above.

Couple of boring favourites that should win are

1.00P Invitation Only
1.05W De Dollar Man
2.05K Waiting Patiently

and also like Goring in the 2.00 at Lingfield, should come from behind and go close.

Not really had time to look at racing the last couple of weeks, but 2.45Navan, Cadmium has a chance, they do think he will come on for the run, but aren't ruling out a win today. Minella Daddy is expected to run well in the 3.00 at Ascot, however the 3 non runners means the place terms are now only 1st and 2nd, so was going to do an EW double with the 2 I've mentioned, but not having a bet now . So if anyone wants a bet, stick a win double on them so I can sit there fuming later when they both win and I didn't back them

Also like Reverent Cust in the 12.55 (about to go off)

Good luck today

Fantastic cards at Leopardstown today and tomorrow, possible the best I've seen outside of Cheltenham for years! Possibly not the best for betting purposes but the racing should be good to watch. Having said that going to do a yankee today

1.45L Min
2.20L Petit Mouchoir
3.30L Melon
2.05M Amour De Nuit (know its not in Ireland but is the other one I like )

2.00L Kachy - wide draw is a concern but hopefully won't stop him winning
3.20W Red Rising - should win this
3.40L Aiya

£20 treble on those

Good luck anyone having a bet today

Good luck today Col
No time really to do anything today, but in the Betfair hurdle at 3.35, I think if the race was ran 20 times, you could quite easily have a different result everytime, so not the easiest race to pick. I do really like Kayf Grace as having a really good chance of winning and doing a small FC with Lalor.

 

[cncas2123]

Surely the bet of the day has to be Immortal Romance in the 8.15 at Wolverhampton tonight......

How did Immortal Romance do in the end lol

Only bet for me today is a £25 EW on Link Removed (Old/Invalid) at 28/1 with Skybet (paying 5 places)
Could easily get a top 5 finish in this race.

Clear Skies in the 3.15 is AOB's first AW runner in the UK for 16 years, so that in itself should be a hint.
3.00 Kempton - Shoal Bay is fancied by the stable for a place at least (around 14-1)
I also like Baywing in the 2.45 but decided to only have one bet (I can guess which will win of course!)
Cadmium should win the Fairyhouse beginners chase, but at 4/7 isn't for me.

Good luck anyone having a bet today

 

[colinsunderland]

1st and 3rd in the big race, typically the wrong way, but 3rd at 33's is fine by me

Luckily yesterday I decided to stick a small bet on the Irish racing alongside my big bets on the TV racing. My bigger bets bombed but the Irish Yankee paid off at about 45/1.About the check out todays cards

Well done, I don't usually bet this close to Cheltenham but was convinced Portrait King would get a place at least, so happy with the £190 I got back from it.

I've actually got a big bet on for the first day of Cheltenham, which is pretty much the first time I've put a big ante post bet on. Faugheen is the obvious fly in the ointment after his last couple of runs, but after he drifted out to 7/1 after his last run, he's back into 5's, which tallys with reports I've heard that he is training better at home than he was. I'm half hoping they don't run him though as the other 3 will still pay £1274 if they all won and he didn't run. Although Buveur D'Air is clearly a good horse, I think he prefers smaller fields, and most the races he has run in have been between 3 & 5 runners, and when he has been beaten its been in larger fields. I wouldn't be backing him at 4/9.

 

[geordiecolin]

I've never been one for making anti post bets Col. There are too many things that can put a spanner in the works for me.
These are my bets for today.

Well today's been a weird day - good weird though!
I started by cashing out on a couple of bets, both football and a yankee, plus a winning treble, giving me about £900 profit in total.

I almost didn't cashout the yankee, but £200ish was enough, especially as one of the horses I really wasn't that keen on, plus, I also had a £4.50 EW four fold on them, which would pay £4000 if the last 2 won. That decision cost me £2k

However, it almost didn't. I had noticed there was a little money overnight on Sean Bowen's 4 rides this afternoon, so did a £1 yankee, and £4.50 EW accumulator (to make a straight £20).

The first 3 won, and I could have cashed out for £1500, and almost clicked the button a dozen times during the hour between the last 2 races, but I just thought stuff it, I'll leave it.

Watching the race on my phone later as I had had to go out, gutted that Sean got beat in his final race by a short head, after leading most the way, and looking like winning all the way to the line. But, shit happens, had around £100 to come from the place part anyway, so put me at £1k profit for the day.

How shocked was I when I went to put a football bet on for later and saw my balance at over £6100.....there was a stewards inquiry and the result was reversed!

So in a way, sick I cashed out the yankee, but over the moon the result was changed!
