This is clearly the best Saturday so far this year, in-fact it could be one of the best days of the entire racing calendar, so much racing, so many Cheltenham pointers and beyond. Let us get going and quickly, I write this at 11:39, with the first race off at midday at Lingfield, fortunately thatContinue reading “Saturday 6 February 2021”

The Gambling Commission ‘consultation’ continues to roll on, racing continues to make a number of uncoordinated statements about the damage the proposals will do to the industry, however, you cannot but help feel a more joined up, considered approach would be more effective. Having to prove you can afford to lose £100 a month, willContinue reading “Friday 5 February 2021”

A reflective post yesterday, nearly sprung to life with our very first selection of the day Fantastic Lady cruising at 8/1 at the off for Nicky Henderson and Nico DeBoinville , monies were being counted, spirits were lifted, it was trading on the Betfair Exchange at 1.08 (yikes) and it stacked it at the finalContinue reading “Thursday 4 February 2021”

Time to stare in the mirror and reflect, with another bet on Monday falling to the wayside, we are now 18 bets without a winner (2 places during that period) which would be fine, of course, this happens, but we need to review our staking method. Simply put, we overreached at the back end ofContinue reading “Wednesday 3 February 2021”

A disappointing Saturday, ends January on a note the rest of the month did not merit, on reflection, perhaps I over-staked due to their only being one major Jump meeting but it was difficult to see nothing stick out of 9 bets on Saturday, with only one providing any return, an each-way second. However, weContinue reading “Monday 1 February 2021”

Cheltenham sadly a casualty of the bad weather leaving us with Doncaster and Lingfield on the All-Weather. Doncaster 13:30 – All eyes on Shiskin, arguably Britain’s best horse, in the 13:30 at Doncaster, he should win and win well, ahead of the Festival. A chance is taken however on Eldorado Allen, the Tizzard yard areContinue reading “Saturday 30 January 2021”

Disappointing day yesterday, very little went as desired, Zylan placed with the well fancied favourites, beaten in both races we played in over on the All-Weather but it is hard not to think with a shrewder ride, Zylan could have been ahead at the finish, but for being boxed in. Anyway, today, only one raceContinue reading “Friday 29 January 2021”

One bet, one win, a nice way to enjoy a relatively modest day of racing, as cancellations due to weather continue. ASSIMILATION however, did everything we said he would, he hung back slightly off the pace and was presented at the straight. A great ride by Luke Morris who knew the tactical ride of SkyContinue reading “Thursday 28 January 2021”

Only one race of interest today, over at Lingfield over on the All-Weather the 13:15. It is a 4 runner affair with the market, with Power of States for Hugo Palmer, favourite, at Evens. His speed-figures are to be respected but they are equivalent to the outsider of the bunch, ASSIMILATION, who is our selection,Continue reading “Wednesday 27 January 2021”
