Well, that was something, what a Festival, absolute Irish domination, fantastic performances all round and what a thrilling day Friday was, so many close races. Furthermore, we ended up in plenty of profit despite a couple of seconds (Gold Cup in particular) that on another day would have heralded a day for the ages.

‘Twas, the weekend before Christmas, sorry Cheltenham. Try not to do your beans today if you are having a bet ahead of the big one. As to yesterday, well, it started well, 3 points on at 5/1 with the wonderful, unrivalled, genius that is Hollie of Doyle doing the business for us again on theContinue reading “Saturday 13 March 2021”

Cheltenham is but 6 days away. Racing today at Fontwell and Lingfield. Fontwell. 13:30 – very solid fave, Baddesley Prince would be of interest with his performances in 2019 measuring respect but we have no idea how he is going to look today with the yard not being in the greatest of form. Lingfield 15:55Continue reading “Wednesday 10 March 2021”

Our only bet ran poorly yesterday, let us hope the Skelton’s are not falling out of form ahead of the Festival, a few poor runners of late might indicate the yard is not quite firing as they would like. Onto today, P&L to be posted tomorrow. Southwell 13:00 – Nothing of interest. 13:30 – NothingContinue reading “Monday 8 March 2021”

Not much went well yesterday with nothing sticking. A big day of racing today, I heard on the Nick Luck pod Nicholls has runners in every race at Kempton so he will probably win every race… Reviews will be shorter today as a lot of racing. Let’s get going. Lingfield 12:55 – Nothing of interest.Continue reading “Saturday 27 February 2021”

No harm done at all yesterday, sadly the front-two in the market dominated our selections which were big outsiders, however our 2 point win bet on Blackjack Kentucky ensured we broke even for the day. Racing at Exeter, Lingfield, Warwick and Wolverhampton today. Exeter 13:30 – DOLPHIN SQUARE stands out, his front-running style should beContinue reading “Friday 26 February 2021”

A good day yesterday, Rockadenn winning at 9/1 followed up by Tadleel over at Newcastle at 12/1 all but resetting our position. A lovely ride by Bryony Frost on Rockadenn ahead of her mounts at the Festival. Turning to today there is racing at Southwell, Ludlow and Doncaster of interest. Southwell 14:05 – TAWNY PORTContinue reading “Wednesday 24 February 2021”
Wednesday 10 February 2021
No good yesterday, nothing is working at the minute, as we build up to Cheltenham let us hope things start to click, a difficult time with racing being cancelled last minute due to the weather and horses not quite running to form, or at least not to the form we want, as we often playContinue reading “Wednesday 10 February 2021”
Saturday 6 February 2021
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”
Monday 1 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”
