A new dawn, a fresh National Hunt season awaits. After a busy summer in which new arrivals in our household curtailed much in the way of betting activity post Royal Ascot, the start of the November meeting at HQ (Cheltenham) always heralds, for me at least, the start of jump racing, proper. You will findContinue reading “Friday 12 November 2021”

Sunday 20 June 2021
Afternoon all, I know I said I would not have a look at anything until later on next week, however with us not having anything for the last 2 days at Royal Ascot and with Pontefract having a few decent races today, I thought it made sense to have a play. Pontefract 14:55 – TheContinue reading “Sunday 20 June 2021”
Friday 18 June 2021 – Royal Ascot Day 4
Morning all, a day where not much went right I am afraid, pipped on the line in the opener which set the tone for a day that meant we gave some back to the bookies. It happens and of course over a period we are well in profit. Furthermore, the British weather ahead of EnglandContinue reading “Friday 18 June 2021 – Royal Ascot Day 4”
Thursday 17 June 2021 – ROYAL ASCOT DAY 3
Afternoon all, does anyone fancy some Chipotle? I certainly did yesterday and with the blog doing even better individual views wish than the day before, I know plenty of readers did too. In an afternoon where the draw bias seemed fatal if you were drawn low, Chipotle advised at 25/1 was given a perfect rideContinue reading “Thursday 17 June 2021 – ROYAL ASCOT DAY 3”
Wednesday 16 June 2021 – ROYAL ASCOT DAY 2
Good Morning, on this scorching hot, beautiful summer’s day, just how we like it for Royal Ascot. Well, yesterday was good wasn’t it, not just content with tipping the 40/1 winner of the Derby last time we played, RESHOUN landed for us at 66/1 to make the day handsomely profitable, place money on a fewContinue reading “Wednesday 16 June 2021 – ROYAL ASCOT DAY 2”
Tuesday 15 June 2021 – ROYAL ASCOT – DAY 1
Good morning and we’ve made it, Flat racing’s premier showcase event, 5 days of pageantry, elite horse racing and the odd glass of bubbly, the continuation of restrictions mean a full racecourse is unlikely anytime soon but with ITV broadcasting every race from all 5 days, it promises to be special. Finally, apologies for theContinue reading “Tuesday 15 June 2021 – ROYAL ASCOT – DAY 1”
Sunday 6 June 2021
Good Morning, a simply fantastic day yesterday, I can see plenty of you were with me as the views on the blog sky-rocketed. Too recap on a brilliant day: Parent’s Prayer with a brilliant front running ride by Oisin Murphy scored at 4/1; Oh This Is Us got up at the death to win aContinue reading “Sunday 6 June 2021”
Saturday 5 June 2021 – THE DERBY
Good afternoon, welcome to Derby day, the sun is shining, beautifully and brilliantly in the sky, however it was anything but ideal weather yesterday, in a rather farcical few hours, we went from the Clerk of the course, confirming the track was Good, Good to Firm in places, to after the opening race it basicallyContinue reading “Saturday 5 June 2021 – THE DERBY”
Friday 4 June 2021
Good morning, welcome, Epsom is finally here, the Derby is tomorrow and whilst nothing like the race it looked a mere 72 hours ago, it will still be a must watch, however today is Oaks day and after a couple weeks off, let’s get right to the selections. (The P&L will be updated post Epsom,Continue reading “Friday 4 June 2021”
Monday 24 May 2021
Morning all, apologies for radio silence, took the week off post York and the successful period we had, the Irish Guineas weekend is always a tad volatile in my opinion although informative after the event for the Derby in a few weeks. I will be back towards the end of this week with some selections,Continue reading “Monday 24 May 2021”
