Don't k now about today's racing but SAGAMORE runs on Tuesday at Lingfield. 2 furlongs extra should suit him and with Buick on board. Don't know much about the rest off the field, will look closer once the declaration as been made.

I am at work so do not see the race, what I meant was did it win easy, from the front, from behind, did it look like it had more to give?

It's got a good future,

Gosden tends to plot potential hotpots , so future entries giveaway his opinion usually.. If it gets entered into a valuable hc or jumps into pattern company then it may pay to follow nos imho...

http://www.attheraces.com/VideoConsole/?va=LIN_2010_08_10_01_1430
here is the race nos , free to watch if u register with ATR [free] Baldings horse gets squeezed on the turn but its meh , he loses momentum and 5 lengths , Fortune doesn"t over exert on the run in so the 2 to keep an eye on would be Sagamore and Pilote Celerbre imho .. :)

Post by: noble1 on September 18, 2010, 02:25:50 AM
well i"ve got to have a punt at the silver and gold cups at Ayr and have my shortlist down to a few ;D , so if you fancy laying them lol lol so be it..

AYR 2:15 - William Hill (Ayr) Silver Cup Handicap

Tiddliwinks - if he reproduces his steward sprint form he has a great shout from a high draw with Pavershooz and Joseph Henry setting the pace they may well set it up for a hold up type like tiddles...
Lowther - very lightly raced 5 year old, he finished 2nd in this race last year off a 3lbs higher mark, following the same pre race prep at donnie route as last year..
Something - Dandy Nicholls say no more, 5lbs claimed by Billy Cray.. Finished 2nd on Courageous for Dandy yesterday in the bronze cup, also on evens and odds when winning the stewards cup also for Dandy, this is just the type of horse that Mr Nicholls having had him for a year or so now may well pull something out of the bag with..
Joseph Henry - could well lead all the way..
Misplaced Fortune - has a great shout if he reproduces his recent York and Ripon form, interesting jockey booking of Dale Swift claiming 5lbs, he won the bronze cup on Cheveton yesterday...

AYR 3:20 - William Hill (Ayr) Gold Cup

one stat that holds up well in the gold cup is avoid the first three in the betting like the plague, especially the favourite.. so my shortlist looks like this -
Damien - given that he ran well [especially early part] at times this season when the stable have been under a cloud/in out form may bode well. Just have this feeling that Mr Hills had this race in mind as a target all along..
Redford - Dandy Nicholls and Frankie Dettori say no more..
Noverre To Go - nearly horse last twice, mothballed since the stewards cup with Ross Atkinson claiming 5lbs this may well be enough to sneek a win...
Knot In Wood - this race has been the target since last years 3rd, previous year runners have a good record in the gold cup, the odds compilers have the price way wrong for this one imho , trading at 37"s on betfair as i write this..
Evens And Odds - no surprise if he completes a stewards/ayr gold cup double, if anyone knows who buys the horses for dab hand racing then get them to find one for you, whoever does it has a good eye..

good luck all.........

I"ve just studied the Ayr gold cup (3.20).High draws prevailed in the sprints on the first 2 days of the meeting. Jonny Mudball is drawn 25 and likes to blaze a trail from the front and could be hard to peg back.Redford is interesting now being trained by the king of sprinters Dandy Nicholls,he"s been running over further and tumbling down the weights he has  the added bonus of Frankie on board.Finally being a scotsman i cant leave out Hawkeyethenoo,looking to give scotlands its first win in the race for 35 years.A rapidly improving horse.Drawn in 16 might not help this hold up performer but heart rules the head here.Most firms going 5 places ,so plenty of value to be had.

ASCOT 3:40 - totesport.com Challenge Cup

having gone to ascot yesterday i was intending to keep my dosh firmly in my wallet and just watched the 1st race. The 2nd race cumani had rock n roll ransom, i could not resist and lumped on at 2/1 and he duly obliged. The drinks were on me, and by heck my lass doesn"t half neck em when they are free and her girlfriends were more than willing to help spend my winnings.
the 3rd race i foolishly announced that if little garcon won i"d treat everyone to a day out at newmarket, williaim buick tucked in about last till 1 and a half out and asked garcon to go, he must of had a nitro oxide kit installed as the horse left everything standing to win with a head to spare.
pollys mark was in the 4th and i thought he was almost a shoo in, mr cox having had a winner in the 1st all added upto lump on BIG, so off i toddled to the same bookie who i had backed little garcon with, i could see the fear in his eyes lol lol he had just lengthened polly out to 5/2.. well the race certainly got my adrenaline going as the favourite ferdoos got to the finish line along with pollys mark, i was convinced ferdoos had snatched it and then they announced the photo in pollys favour and off i trotted with a broad grin to my mate the bookie, i could see he was thrilled for me LMAO... anyhooos that close call persuaded me that was enough for the day..
Right onto todays challenge cup and i love trying to solve these cavalry charges, this race has had its fair share of big priced winners over the years so its always worth a tickle imho. Got my shortlist down to some obvious and some not so obvious, i like to back the not so obvious in this race so avoid these if u wish :)

Light From Mars
Gallagher
Imperial Guest
Kyllachy Star
Sarasota Sunshine

i fancy Kyllachy Star to win it and i"ve had some savers on the rest :)

well i was at Newmarket today [friday] and having seen dream ahead i must say wowser, he made the others look very ordinary.. one for the 2000 guineas if it is soft going without a doubt imho , good ground plus then the obvious frankel but patchfork may well spring a surprise..
well for the saturday donkey lets have a go at 3 of the toughest big field races at newmarket :)

1:55 - £300,000 Tattersalls Millions [only 21 runners]
Together - the favourite for good reason, its got a touch of class and she is quick ;D

2:25 - £500,000 Tattersalls Millions [only 27 runners]
State Opera - a Mr Johnston late 2yo debutant , just the one run a couple of weeks ago at hamilton , worth a punt imho , Mr Haggas has a once raced horse called Fury with fallon aboard which maybe a danger..

3:40 - Cambridgeshire [only 35 runners]
Taqleed - errr well handicapped imho should have at least another 10lbs... got 12"s today , its getting backed down so maybe shorter yet...
Emirates Dream - can frankie make it a hat-trick of saturday big handicaps , good chance to do so on this.. i"ve took/snapped up 20"s on betfair....

fabre supplemented Lope De Vega tuesday , i couldn"t ignore that , fabre is a class act and wont supplement lightly plus at the start of the season Workforce and Lope De Vega looked really nice prospects, hiccups since , workforce may of bounced lto , de vega"s last 2 were odd runs over 8f , but for those de vega would be favourite imho..
Youmzain ?? maybe 2nd again lol , poor ole channon , such a great horse yet so unlucky meeting up with sea the stars,dylan thomas and zarkova , will he meet another of this class today? potentially with a little hope that they spring back to form i think it maybe workforce or lope de vega... meh u gotta luv it...

So its a magical day today, the welsh national and FA cup weekend, time for some 3rd round shockers, maybe Liverpool can actually beat Utd, who knows, afterall its the FA cup, miracles do happen LMAO...
Chepstow 13.45pm Welsh National..
I have my shortlist down to -

Ballyfitz
Theatre Dance
Giles Cross

I"m not a fan of backing of 4-6/1 shots in a slog like this so Maktu gets crossed off.. Recent form makes me prefer Ballyfitz, he"s getting on but Nigel TD has had a good season upto now so its worth a each way dabble imho and win bet on Dance Island who finished behind a well handicapped King Fontaine at haydock reads better than it looks imo...

First Point
Hills Of Aran

The King George goes off shortly at 3pm, can Kauto do it again? meh Hendersons pair Long Run and Riverside Theatre look like the improvers....
Riverside is interesting as he won cosily lto, he has grown a bit since his fifth in the Arkle the other year, he caught my eye that day, 2 miles never looked his trip, so with the upping in distance this racing season and his spurt of growth i met have a little tickle :)

First Point 4th 14/1
Hills Of Aran

The King George goes off shortly at 3pm, can Kauto do it again? meh Hendersons pair Long Run 1st 9/2 and Riverside Theatre 2nd 10/1 look like the improvers....
Riverside is interesting as he won cosily lto, he has grown a bit since his fifth in the Arkle the other year, he caught my eye that day, 2 miles never looked his trip, so with the upping in distance this racing season and his spurt of growth i met have a little tickle :)

sorry waz i was getting distracted earlier with the pokers :) , i"ve finished now so i"ll attempt to explain laying off to you as best as i can...

right basics -
the back column has an amount in it with the decimal odds..
example - 2.6 with an amount of money below, £500 for instance... this means you can back at 2.6 upto £500, if you back for more, say £600, then £500 will be matched and then what happens is that the request to back the horse is left as an open order on the exchanges and is available for anyone to lay, hopefully this will get matched :)

the lay column works like the back column, odds and the cash amount that you can lay upto...
thus if the odds to lay were 3.4 with £1000 below it, then if you lay at £300 this means your liability is £300 x 2.4=£720 if your selection wins, if it loses then you win £300...

if a back is unmatched it will be displayed across everyone"s display in the lay section.. this is done because it"s now available for someone to come along and to lay the horse at this price to the amount which you requested...
you can change the odds that you requested if u wish as long as its still unmatched..
you can also select bigger odds to back at or lay at if u wish, but depending on how the market is going, the bigger odds that u select may not get matched...

see if this helps also Waz - http://help.betfair.com/contents/itemId/i65767325/index.en.html

Post by: noble1 on February 16, 2011, 10:05:02 AM
I helped out a friend over the weekend at his pokers whilst our loved ones had a girls spa weekend break.
He has been playing on off for the last 4 years and in that time he has never progressed beyond 25nl.
Anyhows here is a few things i picked up in his game which someone might think will help them.

He was playing 25nl 6max..

UTG he opened his usual range 22+ AJo+ all his suited Broadways KQo  78s+ so about a 13 to 14% range no problem there.
The table was playing quite tight but he never changed his range, he just tightened up?
At the time there was little 3betting so the first adjustment i made to his game was to drop the small pairs 22 - 55 and add some suited connecters and 1gappers in 65s - 67s, 57s - T8s
His std plan of tightening his range was the wrong way of adjusting to the players behind him, rather than changing his frequency i suggested that he change his opening range so that it played better against the tighties ranges behind. The problem with small pairs is that oop its very hard to get them paid off, normally on dry boards oop its difficult to get 3 streets of value out of a tighty and when you do get action from the tighty on wet flops and you hit a set then the hands they mostly play back or on with have good equity with combo draws of some sort. If it had been a fishy loose table then drop the SC"s and replace with the small pairs..
He asked quite rightly WHY? he had the initiative even with the small PP"s but when cbetting if he got called he had little equity, at least with the SC"s he had more chance of hitting the flop plus if his cbet was called on the flop this meant more ways to improve..
Here is an example of how he played 55 -
the usual raise pre and 1 caller on the button, flop -  jd  8h  7s in which he cbets his std amount. The tightish villain was a fairly straight forward honest fit or fold type who called the cbet with AJ for top pair so at best 55 had 12% equity and little chance of improving, even if Mr fit or fold had called TT-99,AJs,KJs,QJs,AJo then 55"s equity is slightly worse.
If he had  9s  8s in this spot then his equity on the flop would of been 31% and far more ways of improving, any 8 any 9 any spade any 10 any 6 and plenty of options in how to continue with the hand if any of these cards came on the turn...

Other things cropped up about his game such as how he adjusted to 3bets, his cbetting and well hmmmm pretty much alot actually lol, post-flop he missed alot of spots to take advantage of because he didn"t adjust to the villains tendencies and so forth..
I"ll post those up later time permitting, hopefully the above might help someone review how they think and adjust there ranges to players plus it can get you thinking on what/when to cbet on whatever flop texture..

just on the above if your hand reading skills are a tad murky then obvious you"ll find the above tricky...

below are some notes i had tucked away on the psychology of hand reading that causes inaccurate reads -

Optimism - some players like to/prefer to believe or convince themselves that they are winning the hand rather than losing it :) this leads you to craft ranges for your opponent to ones more weighted to those that you are beating..

Freudian projection - thinking why we would do something and then applying it to our opponent, the problem is players can vary a lot in how they think..

In the present/recent moment - letting the last few hands seen over influence our decisions on putting players on ranges, this leads to problems when playing opponents who adjust/deviate from how they play the same type of hands/situations :)

Being negative - playing in fear which causes the player to see monsters, most cards on the flop.turn and river will be scare cards :) thus this player will weigh ranges more to what is beating him..

Conflicting thoughts - we make a decision then even though you get further info later in the hand that implies you may of made the wrong choice, you still stubbornly stick to your original conclusion...

Not forgetting your own hand - when trying to put yourself in your opponents position and trying to see the hand from there perspective, sometimes our hand can still overly influence us because its tough to totally forget what we actually have, to truly look it from the opponents perspective we have to try and view it like he does, afterall he doesn"t know what cards we have ! ! ....

Right gloves off, time to try and get in gear for Cheltenham and get winning.. :)
I have been looking through the videos of the Imperial Cup Handicap contenders looking for the improvers, Team Pipe are the buggers that tilt the trend for improvers.. [having targeted this race over the years]
The only trend i tend to take stock in for the Imperial Cup is 9 of 10 winners had their last run between 21 and 55 days ago..
So i am putting a line through -
Arctic Wings
Points Of View
Alpine Eagle
Numide
Via Galilei
Old Way
Pateese
Drill Sergeant
Cheshire Prince
Fiulin
Kangaroo Court

of the rest the ones that caught my eye were -
Ultimate
Screaming Brave
Tito Bustillo
Alarazi
Ronaldo Des Mottes
Arrayan
Dona


So surprise surprise Arrayan for the win and some each way action on Ultimate and Tito Bustillo.....

Good luck if you are punting today, save some powder for Cheltenham...........

what really constitutes a good class drop? situations like when a horse is dropping into the claiming ranks for the first time for instance.. Pace will depend on what tactics dependent on draws or opposition etc , not a theory to get into now lol , a book can be written :)
uk racing a class 4 raced unsuccessfully horse now dropped into class 6 to me either it will meet its true level or not, plus his speed figures were ok " ish... other factors like well being, past injuries or current niggles count but without being there to see"em in the flesh, tough to factor etc etc

the wolves 520 monday is a cracker and the kind of race I like to bet in. You say you look at pace? Lets see what we both come up with.


i said i was experimenting with pace, but approaching it differently, it is i suppose called "Efficiency Handicapping"..
atm i am trying to record bits of data about how each horse runs a race and these build up into a record for each horse that can be compared to how well it performed... the data i get i also use to analyse on a course by race distance basis to develop a picture of what ways of running a race are most efficient and which also produce a good strike rate...
really geeky stuff that i"m just experimenting with, the way i approach horse racing is simple, hard study and watching plenty of races noting horses that appear to me to be better than what the bare form suggests.. when i analyse a race i make sure that i have watched the horses involved previous runs, i do this cos i try to find a angle that the betting market may of missed, this could be track bias, pace, the going was imo different to what was reported by the race analysts or just a simple thing like a certain trainer having a good record with certain horse types etc etc... in a nutshell i try to know as much as i can about the horses in the hope that i find something that the betting market may of missed....
the successful bettors, in my opinion, have the best intuition, and with experience somehow develop a gut feeling for when to take the risk and when not to :)  i"m not a fan of mathematical approaches to betting, can the horse win or not :) whats the price, 25/1 bloody hell, its a bet.. ;D

class 6 5f aw sprints at wolverhampton aren"t ideal to bet in imho, the horses are so poor and inconsistent, but i"ll have a look through and see if i can come up with anything...

http://www.attheraces.com/VideoConsole/?va=WOL_2011_03_02_06_1700

Sally"s Swansong looks to have the beating of Steel City Boy imo, The Tatling looks like he needs 6f but would still find something to beat him[retire the poor old boy], Rio"s Girl will improve for her seasonal debut run but a 4lbs pull still would not convince me.. Straboe has never won off a mark of 64 which doesn"t bode well either.. I would not bet in this scott, but if pushed i"d favour Sally"s Swansong but at very small stakes :) the nag is 1/16, consistency does not seem to be her thing :)
Title: Re: Saturday Donkey
Post by: thacker on March 20, 2011, 22:18:34 PM
you really need to look at pace.IMO after 25 years of betting on horses - pace is everything.The weight"s mean very little bar going up in grade which is important.Going up in grade though is all about pace.Each horse is handicapped by thinking time out of the gates and pack instinct and in most cases horses cant be trained to go against what they do in the wild.Most tracks are ran at a different speeds and most horses can run fast times if given the opportunity.The opportunity isn"t there often and thats our job to find out when.

what I do is :-

make sure the pace suits the horse and is in a grade it can win at.
make sure the horse suits the track.
make sure the horse likes the going.
on turf time the first race to get a going figure.
can the jockey pull it off?
is the trainer doing ok ?

I use times of each track for stiffness and speed.Many horses cant run at 45hph at Goodwood for instance but run well at wolves going 33ph.Its all in the form.

you really need to look at pace.IMO after 25 years of betting on horses - pace is everything.The weight"s mean very little bar going up in grade which is important.Going up in grade though is all about pace.Each horse is handicapped by thinking time out of the gates and pack instinct and in most cases horses cant be trained to go against what they do in the wild.Most tracks are ran at a different speeds and most horses can run fast times if given the opportunity.The opportunity isn"t there often and thats our job to find out when.

what I do is :-

make sure the pace suits the horse and is in a grade it can win at.
make sure the horse suits the track.
make sure the horse likes the going.
on turf time the first race to get a going figure.
can the jockey pull it off?
is the trainer doing ok ?

I use times of each track for stiffness and speed.Many horses cant run at 45hph at Goodwood for instance but run well at wolves going 33ph.Its all in the form.


yes speed is important, of course we want to back the fastest horse... Andrew Beyer is credited for pioneering the approach of speed to horse betting in the usa... the problem we have in the uk is that to accurately assess speed/pace is that you need sectional timing, trying to base figures on just the raw overall finishing time is flawed..
only basing pace/speed to a finish time does not take into account the time the horse ran on the outside of the track, which is the longest distance around, or was boxed in or was blocked by other horses during the first 2furlongs of the race but then overcame these problems and still came in fourth... what if a horse gains a easy lead but stronger horses behind get blocked by weaker horses.. u only get the answers by watching the races, relying on some lone race analyst who has to write up every race on the day is not the best approach.. the speed/pace figures start to go squee whiff don"t u think? add other factors such as wind direction not being available, unless of course u are there or can ring up a buddy at the track to let u know... and so on and so on....
the betting markets ever since Beyer made public his approach have factored this into there odds, likewise draw bias when punters became more aware of it, the bookies incorporated it into the odds....
as a horse race bettor we have to figure out the true odds of a horse and identity horses that are undervalued in the posted odds, so the only way to win money is to predict the outcome better than the odds makers [who use all the methods like speed ratings etc etc] and better than most of the betting public...
the variables can vary from a horse's past performance (wins vs. losses), to its pedigree, its class, its adjusted speed in previous races, its temperament, its breeder, its trainer, the track conditions, the weather and the mix of other horses in the field, all factored in by the odds compilers... the one edge we still have is that we can watch and re-watch any race we choose, looking out for the factors that have been missed, hmmm hard study, something which a lot of punters are not prepared to do....
the posted odds usually overestimate a horses chances of winning, which results in the payout odds being less than the true odds against a horse winning. by overestimating every horses chance of winning, the bookie underpays the bettor for a win, dont play into there hands by assessing races using methods they have factored in, simples....

There was sectional timing in the uk but it was sold badly and soon died due to costs.Also the racing in this country is back in the dark ages. Sectional timing is also flawed though.What the clock doesn"t do is work out how much more energy a horse uses while being taken on.Low grade races are great for getting front runner beat.What ever happens to steel city boy today means nada as one race means nothing but will be interesting to see what you come up with Noble1 :)

Dont get me wrong. sectional timing does work I was one of the few turftrax subscribers.Im saying its not the be all and end all. A trip to Vegas 15 years ago is what got me on the track of pace.I was always a time form person but couldnt work out why fast timers were losing.Turns out it was gate speed and EARLY PACE.

Here is a good read about one of the biggest punters ever till is death about 3 years ago - Alan Woods.. He teamed up with a guy called Bill Benter and together formed one of the biggest betting syndicates ever in Hong Kong, later on after splitting up the partnership Woods carried on and set up an even bigger betting operation..

Sunday - DONCASTER 3:55 - williamhill.com Handicap

i luvvv my sprints and its worth watching to see how the 4yo"s do, had my shortlist down to -
Quest For Success
Parisian Pyramid
Kellys Eye
Flipando
Medicean Man
Colonel Mak

decided on backing the two below -

http://www.attheraces.com/VideoConsole/?va=DON_2010_10_22_04_1555
Kellys Eye - still on a good mark imho, a hold up performer who may need the gaps to open but at around 20/1 is well worth backing, especially with Dale Swift taking off a handy 5lbs... - x

http://www.attheraces.com/VideoConsole/?va=ASC_2010_05_08_06_1710
Medicean Man - has his quirks, another hold up/mid div type who has his best ground conditions and a big field to set up a nice pace who mostly are making there seasonal debuts... his debut run at Wolverhampton gives him a great chance here imo [Jimmy Styles franking the form yesterday] 9/1 8/1 is a fair price... - x

Always try to follow this golden rule and u wont go far wrong - if u spot a horse/s which in your opinion is/are likely to win and whose true odds [in your opinion] are less than the odds available with bookmakers/betfair etc, then u have found yourself a profitable betting opportunity........ :)  eazzzzy peeezzy  :)

the only problem !! what should a horse price be? opinions differ and some have an idea and some don"t. Surely a horse thats going to win should be short.So if it a good price back it !!


i said above in brackets [in your opinion]... horse race odds are indefinite, after all absolute odds reflect the exact chances of any eventuality like a flip of a coin for example.. the odds compilers price up prior [in there opinion], the tipsters put out there tips, punters with there own opinions also react, the betting market takes shape.. indefinite odds opinion versus opinion, overrounds to take into account etc etc.. indefinite odds are just that.... they are someone's interpretation of the possibilities that exist... therefore, in any sporting event you are pitching yourself against the odds setter.... it therefore follows that the odds offered on a horserace are not necessarily correct... put bluntly they are largely a guess....  we as the punter make a educated guess using whatever info we have at hand, we should ideally be pricing up each race ourselves looking for what we consider horses that are over priced/under rated by the betting market for whatever reason etc etc, then we make our bet or pass the race over because we cant get a decent price... do we not??  but we dont pass everytime, or else we are allowing the odds makers to dictate our betting patterns, so even when we cant get the price we"d like, we take the shorter because we think we"ll win... but not to often huh :)  its the road to the poor house if we do it one to many times ;D
Quote
Surely a horse thats going to win should be short.So if it a good price back it !!

i"ve read the above but cant quite fathom the point, so forgive my thickness if i am totally off with what you are trying to point out... a horse that in our opinion can win won"t always be short, our selection method may be different to the majority of the market....

the indefinite proposition, oh what joy it is :) there are random factors to be considered in every horse race and those random factors will kick in from time to time, well lol lol sometimes more than from time to time.... :)

lol poker is luck and to call it  is absolute odds is more than incorrect.In any one hand even if you have the " so called odds to call "you might be dead due to the fact of the cards already being out.So in any one hand you never know.

The bookies make a favorite in every race.Less than 40% of favorites win.The bookies win because they take bets on every horse and balance the books.Many punters are skint but by the same token many bookies have gone bust. We will never agree but hey its only my opinion but im trying to say is that the mainstream opinion of what it takes to win a race in the country is totally wrong or more favorites would win and less punters would be skint.

Post by: noble1 on April 25, 2011, 14:01:09 PM
all i can say is sigh....

you have your outs,your opponent/s have theres, there are only so many cards left possibly in the deck, absolute odds.....  poker is not indefinite, after all we dont get say random cards suddenly being added to the deck do we, well u might in the odd home game if there is a cheating so+so in it lol  :)

there are over-rounds, 1 to 2% per horse, thats how long term works, the rest is common sense, laying off bets or shortening or lengthening other horses odds etc etc... 
30% ish favourites win long term is a bit closer to the actual amount of times that they win.....

FRANKEL..Awesome.
Wish I"d been there.
Report please Noble.


saw he had a pacesetter, but that plan went out the window the moment he shot out of the stalls.

The only thing to compare it to would be watching Usain Bolt at his school sports day.

Awesome!!

Awesome performance couldn"t believe the pacesetter couldnt keep up! I had Dubawi Gold at 85-1 on betfair so a little gutted that a wonder horse was in the race!

As for tommoro, its all about MEMORY....lump lump lump! I love me is a lively outsider.

Good luck all

well apart from the going reports prior to goodwood and thirsk being totally out i had a ok day yesterday :)
Frankel :) hmmm took the breath away, what more can u say, he went for a stroll and the others could not match his cruise speed.. i"ve been looking at the race times and doing the going allowance etc and Frankels figures are way ahead of anything in recent years.. i"ve re-checked 4 times  :) lol lol , he idled towards the end but still looked as if he"d pick up again if asked hence i"m still scratching my head wondering what sort of figure he"d do if he went flat out :)
having been down newmarket watching him on the wet gallop prior to this and seeing TQ having a job to ease him up at the end, in theory he"ll be better over longer... he is in good hands with Henry C [none better imho] so no doubt he"ll have some training regime sorted for the monster...
i"m off again today, hoping Maqaasid wins the 1000-G, lumped on antepost so i"m biased  :) Clear Praise and Jack My Boy in the 3.50 i"ve backed plus a tad bit more on course is the plan....

good luck if you are punting today....

for those interested here is a link on Frankels dosage figure - http://www.chef-de-race.com/dosage/classics/2011/2011_2000_guineas_preview.htm

Not strictly a Saturday but what are everyones bets for Chester/Punchestown?

Have to be on Fadhaa in the last IMO....will improve for the step up in trip and Hills loves a winner at Chester. Also on Blue Jack in the handicap sprint, i have heard a good word that he will not be out of the first 3...he has also won a listed race at the track last year.

As for the Chester cup, i think Mount Athos would be massively interesting if he had a better draw...also Red Cadeuax, although i don"t like backing hold up horses at Chester.

Oh and one more...El wasaami in the maiden EW...love backing Clive Brittains on their 2nd start...although has a live one to beat in Columbian.

Good luck everyone!

for me Kauto for the gold cup- x, hurrican run saturday, at chester swingkeel ew- x  , in the sprint doctor parkes - 1st 10/1, a funny bugger who lost his way last year and ran well on his seasonal debut under top weight in a competitive class4 hc over 6f, drop back shouldn"t be a prob, ok draw bottom weight, hanagan on board, speculative :)

http://www.apat.com/forum/index.php?topic=6616.msg137063#msg137063

got into a discussion about pace, can it be applied to uk racing? meh the lack of info is a stumbling block imho.. or should i say the lack of freely available info??
when u visit the BHA site - http://britishhorseracing.org/resources/media/ratings.asp , for newcomers to horse racing is there enough info for a beginner ??
other sites offering form etc are just lengths beaten, a poor analysis sometimes, dodgy ratings? and not much else..

now compare to say Hong Kong - http://www.hkjc.com/home/english/index.asp
there free user guide - http://www.hkjc.com/english/formguide/userguide.asp?FrmRaceNum=01
there race cards - http://www.hkjc.com/english/racing/startersR1_e.asp
there form guides - http://www.hkjc.com/english/formguide/formguide.asp?FrmRaceNum=01#
there tv coverage - http://www.hkjc.com/english/press/showcase.asp - is it better [as in analysis?]

horse weights. sectional times and speed figures, press for a pace map etc etc stats galore, trainer, jockey and draws etc etc fitness ratings etc...

what to make of the BHA site , is it good enough?

Im on Noble Citizen....beeen aimed for this race, loves the course...worth a go at 40-1. Also Shammadar....this is a group horse in a handicap, has won at the course before. just hope its good enough to do itself justice first time up.

Also look out for Kingsgate Native in the last at Ascot. They firmly believe that this could be a very good 4yr old...might need a run first time out but still worth backing at 25-1 even so.

FA cup day, sorry Rob :) ""come on STOKE"" , now that city have there millions and have secured 4th spot i think its only fair that Stoke win today, plus what with all that money your boys have, now i"m green with envy being a toffee man and strangely i just luvvvv it when City get beat.. lol  :)
Scratched my head tbh with the media tripe about the FA cup not being at its usual date, with the champions league final only in 2 weeks it would make sense to move it forward would it not? Again next year with the Euro champs surely again it makes sense to give our precious England 4 weeks rest before destroying all before them lol lol... Then all back to normal for 2013, whats all the fuss?

So onto some Saturday donking with the usual tough competitive races to sort out, avoid these if you dare !!! lol  :o

Great racing all week and set up some cracking clashes for the rest of the season (canford vs. frankel, await the dawn vs. workforce et al...)

Just the one bet for me today - NEWCASTLE 3:05 - La Vecchia Scuola.... - x
out of form is the negative, a single figure draw on ground he prefers today is a positive though, plus he has a trainer with a habit of picking up the odd big handicap with big price outsiders [Nanton in the zetland cup @25/1 back in May].. La Vecchia Scuola runs off 94 today, same as when he came 2nd in the ceasarewitch last year.. all in all seems worth a speculative punt imho..

Eclipse day at Sandown;

Should be a top Group 1 contest, Workforce is very good but love the trends in this race for beaten horses in the prince of wales at royal ascot.  So You Think finished 2nd well clear of Sri Putan and has to be the selection.  Fillies have a bad record in the race so cant have Snow Fairy after a long layoff.  Not much of a price at 10/11 but will be including in the saturday yankee.

Great race for the Coral Eclipse, 2 great champions.  Workforce loses nothing in defeat and Sri Putan runs another cracker to confirm the form of the Prince Of Wales at Royal Ascot.  So You Think an outstanding winner - how good is Rewilding now???

You were very unlucky with Vita Nova.  Saddle slipped and would surely have won otherwise.

Hi guys.... first of all i agree entirely with James think Rose Blossom has a massive chance at york, it has been underperforming in group 1"s, but they still think a lot of him.

2nd of all i have a huge fancy for Kingsgate Choice Ascot 4pm....been following this horse ever since it was been talked up as a group horse...it has been running over an inadequate 5f last twice, running on strongly both times. It is the first time Robert Winston has been jocked up since last year (he knows the horse so well.) There are progressive types in the line-up, but at 12-1 its well worth a shot! Get on early, John Best is a well known gambling stable.

3rd of all, if it keeps raining Dream Ahead will win the July cup...that is all!

I"m in the opposite camp, Frankel to be ridden with a little more restraint and then to be unleashed at around 3furlongs out using that speed to full effect... [i hope :)]

meh change of strategy to my usual picks that i put up in the thread i"ll put up my shortlist as i tend to back more than one anyway in these tough competitive races...

Very impressive and given a much better ride.  Saw out the mile really well and will be very interesting over 10f (although he would win a group 1 over 6f easily).  Canford ran no sort of race - however he is top class which makes Frankel even better.  Would like to see them meet again over a mile at ascot, maybe in the QE2.

due to Rob swinebag pressure for once i"ll give my tips after the event :)
i went to ascot etc etc and had 6 winners lol lol ... naaaa i wish ;D
basically my betting antics for the day -
had a combi straight forecast on 3/4/6 got 1st 2nd and 4th in the 1st race
2nd race - had a win bet on Woolfall Treasure who finished well but never quite looked like winning...
3rd race - fancied Dungannon but effing pricewise had tipped it up, i convinced myself that all the value was gone, so had a win bet on Shoshoni Wind instead.. Dungannon won lol...
4th race - Parlour Games looked gr8 in parade, best price i could get was 8/1 and he won...
5th race - went with Chock A Block in this one [win bet again] , i might as well just gave my money away :)
6th race - in profit for the day and i didn"t really fancy anything, the 3 market leaders looked the way to go, so i had a small combi straight forecast on em, they finished 1.2+3 and the 1,2 paid ok as the fav was the 3rd :)

so ok wise in profit terms, i didn"t go mad as nothing stood out... but it was a nice day out.. The York Ebor next and i hope the weather improves or its going to be tough punting...

unlucky with Duchess Dora Tje, just ran out of gas.. Z.zEE unfortunately had Jim Crowley on-board [he didn"t have the best of days] Pivotman hmmm say no more huh :) if u had seen him in the flesh beforehand u may of swerved that 1..
Julius Geezer looks badly handicapped, keep a eye out for him though when he drops a bit more in the weights, he"s a nice looking sort with a bit of filling out left to do, he may make a nice 4yo...

YORK 2:00 - Life And Soul - - x
YORK 2:30 - B Fifty Two - - x
YORK 3:05 - Dux Scholar - 3rd 11/4
YORK 3:40 - Requinto - http://horses.sportinglife.com/Video/Racing/0,27770,448604_3,00.html
really impressive in the molecomb,draw14 starts on the stand rail, lost 3lengths easily by switching to the center 2.5f out, really good time on the ground and imho is far quicker than what Kingsgate Native was as a 2yo[who finished 2nd in the molecomb prior to winning the nunthorpe].. gr8 chance with the wfaa and the price is fair... - x

Terrible week at York so far with Blue Bunting the only winner.  Hopefully picking the Ebor winner can save it;

2.30 Masaraat
3.05 Dandino
3.40 Nehaam

Sandown

2.15 Circumvent

just the ebor with 3 selections..

YORK 3:40
Blissful Moment - goes on all types of ground and is rather over looked because of Modun [seems odd to me how Modun is favoured, SMS tried him over 1m4f then dropped him to 1m2f, now at 1m6f ? not a usual SMS tactic]
A win bet is in order for the supposed 2nd string... - - x

Moyenne Corniche - each way - ran well in the Northumberland, just ran out of gas 1.5f out.. LTO was over 10f so put a line through that, has Dale Swift riding claiming a handy 3lbs.. - 1st 25/1

Sirvino - each way punt - quirky so+so with bits and bobs of form that gives him a shout and because he his the complete outsider, i just cannot resist :) - - x


meh and in the 2.30 Lyric Street [son of Hurricane Run] he looks like the type with stamina in abundance, very lightly raced as per the Cumani way.. Entered up in the St. Ledger ? Luca is careful with his entries, so take the 6 or 7 to 1 where you can imo... - x
Good chance with Masaraat TJE imho along with Kinyras and Parlour Games 1st 9/1 [who i saw and backed at Ascot] look to be the possible winners...

glgl one and all......

weekend football punt - trixie [3 dbles 1 treb]

Ar5enal v Liverpool - away win
Aston Villa v Blackburn - draw
Swansea v Wigan - away win

HAYDOCK 2:30
English Summer - ew punt with a slim chance of a upset at a big price, ran better than it looked lto, not a good price for Tominator today imo and the market fancies are pretty much priced up ok.. n/r

HAYDOCK 3:35 - Betfred Sprint Cup
Elzaam - he caught my eye at Newbury, he ran well at Ascot on unsuitable ground, lto i"ll forgive his run at Newmarket, he just doesn"t seem to act there the 3 times he"s tried.. worth a little win bet... - x

i"m not going over board today with the gg betting today, tough racing with many a contender having chances in most races...

Workforce for the Arc is my ante post fancy, ignore all his runs in small fields as this tricky bugger needs cover or he pulls and hangs left [as per lto in the king george].. Ground wise should be ok unless it gets really unusually dry in France, he has a sound chance of achieving a Arc double imho... - x

Running Good

I play about 16 MTTS in a month (500 + runners) I cash about 4 times of them and run deep twice (out of the 4) and FT once (out of the 4) and for every 4 times I FT I will be in the top 3 once. So on that basis I run good once every four month or every 64 games, is that good or bad? On those stats if I was to play 16 MTTS a day I will run good every 4 days. You see players on TV who always seem to be running deep in tournaments but how many tournaments have they entered? For me "running good" is in the short term or another word for "got lucky more than once in a week"


Wayne imo the strike rate in donkaments depends on buy in, number of runners and that little bit of luck in whichever seat u are assigned.. Hitting the top3 spot percentage wise in say 800+ fields is at most over a decent sample no more than 3% imho. To see how often/tough mtts can be then just look at OPR and check out moorman, Deeb or Bax etc who have consistently won there fair share over the years. ITM finishes range from only in the 15 to 17% area, the top3 % is only in the 2% ballpark [all dependent on buy in and field size]... Interesting stuff variance in mtts, but to win or finish top3 if say players are ITM any higher than 18%+ over a decent sample then they are probably playing a little to tight.. My thoughts on the luck element in a donkament is that if u are constantly/near enough getting your chips in ahead then u are wayyyy to tight, in order to finish in the elusive top3 spot u need to have a wee bit of sub-optimal play in your armoury.. [just not to much :)] i can think of a few hands when i have won or finished deep in big field mtts where going with my reads/stack size and whatever stage/level i"ve been at that i ended up getting in a spot totally dominated pre or post and binking a 3outer etc ;D.. BUT if that wasn"t within me to put my chips/stack at risk in certain situations then i"m pretty sure i"d never of gone deep or won etc..

nice blog post to read btw sir...

I was doing my usual lurking across the forums and i came across this - http://blondepoker.com/forum/index.php?topic=54944.0
it reminded me of the time i wrote about deciding if the villain was betting for value or bluffing on the river when hero is oop on tricky textures [when hero has a strong"ish but not nutted hand]
i put here in the donkey thread but the mods re-titled and moved it, the responses disappointed me as i thought it was worth a wee bit of discussion :( .. in the above thread depending on what level of thought the players are at, even if u thought at say ""what hand/s is villain putting me on"" ... villains bet sizing etc plus heroes reads then if say hero thought about initially is villain bluffing or betting for value then considered villains bluff range, the board texture and his reads/thoughts throughout as the hand played out then i found it intriguing that no mentioned that villain used his 4x hand as a blocker, especially so since when hero led into 5 players that villain using his blocker would of helped him pinpoint heroes possible hand [then add in the board texture etc] it just shows imo at how whatever level u think at then it can be crucial to not just instantly think about the villains range but judge what level they are on thought wise and what they perceive heroes range as... hard for me to put in writing, but i hope u get the jist of what i"m saying regarding thought level etc...

On to the racing and good luck with your picks Tje, i spent a few hours going through the card at Donny and its a no bet but watch day for me..
Sorry for last Saturday as i had a punt on Bauer, i should of done my usual 2 or 3 picks and put it up, especially so after English Summer got pulled out.. Meh but i was busy etc so apologies to anyone who met back some of the donks i put up.. A friend of mine who has a couple of horses with Cumani had told me about Bauer and that on a recent visit how well the horse looked and that the tendon injury which had held him back since well u have to go back to his 2nd in the melbourne cup was finally sorted... Big big price on the day and virtually over looked by the punters, no doubt he will be going into quarantine soon and heading out to Australia once again, keep a eye out on the prices as he may well go one better...

[youtube=425,350]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rYLTzXFVcb0[/youtube]

my short list for todays tv races, i could not pin point anything at a price i was happy with so sods law they"ll most likely all romp home :)

DONCASTER 1:25 -
Royal Blush
Amis Reunis
Poetic Dancer - 2nd 13/2

DONCASTER 1:55 -
Alanza - 1st 11/4
Chachamaidee [the top 2 are priced up about right imo] - 3rd 5/2
Dever Dream [finished behind Chachamaidee at Goodwood, todays ground and galloping track maybe enough to reverse placings] - 2nd 13/2

DONCASTER 2:25 -
Factory Time - 2nd 33/1
Betty Fontaine
West Leake Diman
plus add the obvious - Bogart [but not worth it at the price he is]
all picks but Bogart are rather big prices, tough race to sort out and nothing leaps out as being in the same league as last years winner Wootton Bassett, slim hopes for a big price shocker :o

DONCASTER 3:00 -
Meeznah - 1st 5/2
Goldplated [interesting]
Sense Of Purpose

good luck all, lets hope our donks sprout wings today....

Nipped down my local Coral shop and decided to make a donation as I was feeling guilty about using their convenience.

ok i"ll take on the two big sprints, in the Ayr gold cup Mac"s Power put up by pricewise stands out but isn"t for me at the prices offered.
Eton Rifles is a bit skinny odds wise and i"d question him having the raw speed needed to win this... of the other fancied runners i have put a line through Hawkeyethenoo and Pepper Lane, wrong ground for the former and wrong type of track for the flying filly...

AYR 3:20 - William Hill Ayr Gold Cup
Croisultan - ground no problem.. win - x
High Standing - hc has tumbled down the weights and his lto at Goodwood behind Libranno gives him a great chance today if he re-produces that... ew - x
Brave Prospector - another who has come down markedly in the weights, if he shows his 09 form plus the drop in weights and change of yard then Fahey may of got this plotted up just right... ew - x

Going to York on Saturday, any pointers will be gratefully received  ;)


TBH Wayne I"d be eyeing up any of last year"s C/D winners if ground is running fairly similar and not too much disadvantage in the weights. York for me is one of those "Horses for Courses" tracks........same can be said about any horse that wins races at the likes of Pontefract or Hamilton, both having a stamina busting uphill finish. I"m sure Noble and a few others will be more helpful naming specific horses (I can"t access race cards on my work"s PCs but will have a look at home nearer the time)

2 scenarios - either the bookies will wet themselves with FEAR or LAUGHTER

For those that wish to know the difference between a horse and a duck, one goes quick and the other goes quack..

i had a near death experience when i was 4years old which changed me forever... in the long dim distant past i went horsesback riding... everything was going fine until the horse started bouncing out of control.. i tried with all my might to hang on..  just when things could not possibly get worse, my foot gets caught in the stirrup... as this happened, i fell head first to the ground... my head continued to bounce harder as the horse did not stop or even slow down... just as i was giving up all hope and losing consciousness, the tesco"s manager came out and unplugged it. thank goodness for heroes... [true story :-*]

my grand daddy once told me -
""the secret to making a small fortune in the horse industry is to start with a large fortune""...

Ascot
1:50 - nothing of interest betting wise for myself, looks like these 3 will be the possible winner...
Opinion Poll
Times Up
Colour Vision

2:25 - cannot see beyond the Fanshawe duo, again at the prices its a swerving merv for me..
Deacon Blues
Society Rock

ASCOT 3:00 - nothing stands out as outstanding value...

ASCOT 3:35 - hmmmm easy money?
Frankel

ASCOT 4:10 - anything above 2/1 is a steal imho....
So You Think
Twice Over & Snow Fairy - maybe to cause an upset, wont be far behind..

ASCOT 4:45 - apprentice"s hmmmm, new whip law to take into account, not for me ty...

Noble mentioned Secretariat on a thread here a while back, famed winner of America"s Trpile Crown and obviously a very elite horse. I vaguely recall reading an article about it winning the Belmont ( think it was around 19 lengths) by "a couple of New York city blocks and a few tourist attractions"  :D

Marine Commando
Racy


DONCASTER 3:00 -
http://horses.sportinglife.com/Video/Racing/0,27770,460498_4,00.html

Zip Top - way to big of a price, watch 2 out as he hits the dip, gets all out of sorts but 1 out hitting the rise he finishes very well.. Crius won nicely and is one to look out for next year, in the mean time Crusade [4th] and Letsgoroundagain [5th] have gone on to win nicely.. Bolger has supplemented Zip Top, his 1st ever runner in the Racing Post Trophy so at around 8/1 as i write he is rather good value imho given his lto and his maiden win 1st time out beating Tenth Star... plenty others have tipped up Zip Top so take a price, i"ll be stunned if he remains this big of a price...

When the BC is not at Santa Anita, 9 of the past 10 winners have had at least one of their final two preps in New York.
Havre De Grace, Stay Thirsty + Flat Out fit that best out of this years race line up imho.. 2 horses haven"t prepped at NY -

Agreed - looking to take on the top 2 in the betting

I like Sanctuaire who has potential to be top class and this is normally won by champion hurdlers contenders - others at bigger prices are Topolski, Ultimate & Alazan

Just catching up after being away in Vegas

Emotional win for Kauto Star but would not be too worried about Long Run - still fancy him to win the King George again

Master Minded workmanlike and I am not sure will get the 3 miles at Kempton

Overturn is in cracking form and a real trier - not sure he is top class though and may have picked up some easy hurdle wins (his rating has gone through the roof so will be difficult to place now)

Dynaste for Pipe looks a real star in the making winning the fixed brush hurdle at Haydock (won by Diamond Harry & Grand Cruis in the past)

Rock On Ruby also very impressive off topweight in the limited handicap - surely graded races are in his future

Finally Carruthers winning the hennessy when totally exposed can only mean it was an average renewal in my opinion

Roll on Sandown & Aintree on Saturday

Binocular and rock on ruby were both tough in the Christmas hurdle - overturn got them at it early and they both finished the race well

However not sure if it was champion hurdle form - hurricane fly misses the istabraq hurdle tomorrow and surely must be doubtful to make it to Cheltenham in march

On the look out for a bigger priced outsider...

Grands cruis looked very classy in the feltham - accurate jumping and a great engine he will be a gold cup contender next year, don"t think the RSA will suit though.  I would be tempted to go for the 2m 4f novice event at the festival.

Silviano conti and bobs worth ran great races too - there are so many good novice chasers this year

RSA should suit bobs worth the stiffer track at Cheltenham will bring his stamina play

thinkerJE from Chelters thread...
Quote
If super Saturday goes ahead keep any eye on the betfair hurdle - 3 coral cup winners and 4 county hurdle winners have run in it in the last 8 years...


just some quick recent stats that might help some1 plant the lucky pin in the right place for the betfair hurdle formerly the totesport trophy and in the age of the abacus it was once upon a time called the schweppes... 50/50 to be ran so they forecast, crossing my fingers :)


5 to 7 yo"s have taken 9 of the last 10....
the last 5 winners have all been aged 5 or 6.....
6 of the last 7 winners carried 10-9 or less...
of the 3 horses that carried 10-10+ since 2000 to win in this race, all 3 had finished 1st or 2nd in either the Boylesports.com H'cap Hurdle or had finished 1st or 2nd in this race the previous year....
8 out of 10 winners finished in the first 3 last time out [5 of them had finished 1st lto]
8 out of 10 winners ran in a class 2 or better handicap hurdle lto [the other 2 had only ran over hurdles 3 times in there career]
10 out of 10 winners had run no more than 6 times since August...
9 out of 10 winners had run in 6 or fewer handicap hurdles....
10 out of 10 winners had won no more than 2 handicap hurdles in there career...
10 out of 10 winners had won a hurdles race with 11+ runners.....
7 of the 10 winners had finished in the first 3 in a hurdles race worth 16K+, the other 3 had won lto and had ran no more than 3 hurdle races in there careers....
out of the races that trainers will plan out a route for there horses, the recent prep races they target is the Bavaria Imported Premium Lager H"cap Hurdle 4 out of the last 10 winners ran in that... and in the Stellar Football End of Transfer Window H"cap Hurdle 3 out of the last 10 winners ran in that one.....

12.40 - Tidal Bay - a small win bet, he had a breathing operation before this season and PN has a knack/good record with horses he has done this with before in the past, as long as the early pace isn"t to slow then this old boy may cause a upset plus i fancy taking long run on :)
13.15 - Desert Cry ew , Third Intention & Empire Levant - 2 small win bets

Long run was workmanlike but still a good prep for the Gold Cup - he will appreciate the extra 2f at Cheltenham and the stiffer finish

Great run by Burton Port in 2nd - staying on all the way to the line.  If connections can get him to Aintree for the Grand National he will be a major player

Super Friday at Newbury and a top class card;

Therefore will be getting stuck into the handicap hurdles;

1.15 Sire De Grugy


This was a strange race.  No pace early on so they quickened dramatically from 6f out but in the end Zarkander out stayed them at the finish.  Like many triumph hurdle winners looks like he needs further than 2 miles to show his best - however still a great performance to win first time out and still unexposed and should come on for the run.  Can"t have him for the champion hurdle though as the record of 5yos is dreadful (even if last years juvenile crop look very good) - Aintree hurdle would be the natural race for him this year

Cheltenham Gold Cup day on Friday to look forward to and the drunken mess that is a day out with my mates, so i"m looking for a bit of help to cover the majority of races. I always do a yankee from 4 horses through the day, this year of course will be no exception, but the first 4 Friday tips on this page will decide where my money goes for a change, and believe me this couldn"t possibly be any worse than my own previous attempts over the years so you"re all doing me a favour!

So basically I"m looking for 4 individuals to give me a tip each and that"s it  :)

Cheers noble - did not go well at Cheltenham punting wise (although attaglance got me slighty out of the brown stuff on Friday), however more down after the excitement of the week, was finding it difficult to get up for the uttoxeter card.  Until that is the winners started (2nd choice in the midlands national was Master Overseer and also landed a couple of rugby bets).

I have backed more winners in the last 2 hours than I did at Cheltenham all last week - funny old game this punting lark...

SANDOWN 3:45 - Gordon Richards Stakes

the ground met cause a upset or two today, Twice Over is by far the class horse, Poet will be popular because he loves the mud but at the prices isn"t for me.. Retrieve ew @ 14/1+ is underrated, he loves the ground and if he reproduces the sort of form when behind My Kingdom Of Fife at Randwick last year he could cause a minor shock...

i had a good look at the Gold Cup Chase and i couldn"t find anything that took my fancy so i"ll swerve that one this year...

he has cost £40,000 to supplement, will get the ground and judging by his Lingfield lto run he has really come on physically from 2 to 3... the market is pretty much well priced up and Talwar has been underestimated imho, so if u fancy a punt then get a big as a price as u can...

tyvm sir,

the ground played its part Achim, i probably put more work into assessing the 1000 Guineas than the 2000 tbh, Lyric was my ante post pick and HQ was the pick after all the rain... A big price and a healthy profit for the weekend :)

very sad seeing Gray Pearl in such a pickle, i feel for owner Raymond Mould, he has invested a lot of money in racing over the years, he has supported both codes flat and jumps, even managing to win the Grand National with Bindaree... Ransom Note has been his best flat performer up to now, hopefully he"ll find one real hotpot in the not to distant future...

the Chester May festival starts Wednesday, with all this rain i anticipate the odd shock may happen :)  u gotta love your punting in this sort of weather ;)

hopefully Achim we"ll pick out the odd winner this season...

regards
noble

Todays winner Novallist is now bookmakers favourite 6/1 for german derby.

My best pick was at the Kentucky Oaks 2006. Switched on the livestream and saw the parade of the Oaks and saw this filly. First thought WOW. What"s the name of this filly? A field of 16 runners and she was the longshot 62/1. Against all odds I"d bet her WPS and in a exacta and she won the Oaks for 47/1. Her name was Lemons Forever !

Epsom is nearly here, the Oaks and the Derby look like they met produce some useful sorts this year.. Camelot is a obvious possible but the price isn"t very tempting :).. Could Bonfire win it? it looks like it was decent Dante this year, will an extra 2furlongs suit though being a son of Manduro?, [are you backing it Achim?] considering this was his debut run Bonfire could be a lot closer ability wise to Camelot than what the market suggests.. Bonfire to my eye looks like a top 10f performer but the extra 2furlongs maybe just stretching it so from a value angle i"ve had a wee sized win bet on Parish Hall, Bolger has PH in the Irish 2000 Guineas, basically following the same prep routine as he did with New Approach, 21+ is a good win punt on betfair imho and a place bet as well :)
Astrology is well worth a place bet, he moved well despite the bog at Chester so to my eye he will handle quicker ground.. As a 2year old he was entered in the Futurity Stakes and moved better than all the rest [Parish Hall included] but when McCabe asked him to pick up his tail waved around and he swerved left to the rail finishing up 3rd.. Astrology"s last race as a 2year old, O"Brien entered him in the Autumn Stakes at Newmarket and again he showed similar traits swerving to the rail...I"d put that down to the big wide open space of Newmarket and the Curragh and greenness, none of that was shown at Chester on his seasonal re-appearance in the Dee Stakes, Epsom"s tight turns and far less open track will suit him so i"ve had a small win bet and had a bit bigger place bet :)

so without the waffle...

Epsom Derby 2/6/2012
Astrology - win and place
Parish Hall - win and a place

Al in all ok, but sadly I"d bet 4 races* with a weight reduced Jockey who won yesterday his 50th race. Guess he  lost his weight allowance since today. Especially race 7.(73/10) and 10 (38/10) the horses needed a bit more jockeyship, bad luck. ( will show you both replays later if available)

BONFIRE seems to be a good horse but Im a bit doubtful about how to appraise the performances. If I try to compare BONFIRE performances with german horses I think it"s not enough for Epson Derby. But the past shows us more than one time that 3y old horses are able to boost their performance during months in massiv way. Maybe BONFIRE prefer a distance like today and also good ground. If there is no other pre-derby race it"s difficult to bet BONFIRE with trust.

Easy money and an impressive performance today.Commentator said that SMP has a very good opinion about WORTHADD. Nice 2012 debut but how good is this colt really?

that was his first run for SMP since moving from Vittorio Caruso, our handicapper has him about right at or 116 ish based on his 2nd in the Lockinge last year and the year before in his 3yo season a 3rd to Rio de la Plata.. A solid group2 group3 winner but not quite good enough for the best group1"s over a mile...
Alianthus i"d have just slightly behind Worthadd, after he won at Dusseldorf last time out i think they had the badener meile as his next race in mind, perhaps they thought swerving Worthadd was best? Italy maybe his next port of call for the Premio Carlo Vittadini which Worthadd won last year... Looks like they have done a swap Achim :) he might be worth a punt in Italy if we can get a nice price..
Worthadd is entered up for 3 10f group1"s and 1 8f group1 [the queen anne @ ascot] , i cant see SMP taking Frankel and co on so it would seem a upping trip is the plan... [wrong plan imo :)]

looks like this could be a good season Achim with so many good horses remaining in training...

i had to laugh when Jim McGrath said Lutine Bell would never get the ground, he got off to a bad start and Hughes pressed the button to late to finish 4th.. Admittedly he had traffic problems lol but Palace Moon won @25/1 and all his form is on good to firm, 2nd place Pabusar"s best form all on good , Macs Power goes on anything but never gets there :-X... Race ended Mr McGrath stays stum on the perceived ground conditions. hmmmmm straight different to the round maybe Jim?...  ;D

Mince hosed up in the Coral Sprint, Bartolomeu looked like the winner till the line, i"d preferred him to win tbh :)

I hope you are enjoying your punting today Achim, Frankel coming up soon, should be good :)

What a horse, my Gramps who has seen a horse or two ever since it would seem from the dawn of time came round to watch the race.. Two furlongs out he sat in the comfy chair clapping with a massive grin, up to now he always made sure to tell me [more than once over the years] about Brigadier Gerard. the greatest horse he has ever seen. After the Lockinge he told me he has now changed his mind, ""bloody good horse that"" he said, i just burst out laughing, ""i never thought i"d see a horse get anywhere near as good as the Brigiadier, but i think i"ve just seen something better""..
Gramps knows a thing or two about the GG"s, believe me thats high praise from the old codger...

soft ground Achim was his undoing, the course is fair tbh it suits front runners and hold up types as per Chinchon who luckily for him had the inside draws set up a nice pace for him to pick them off in the home stretch.. most of the others wider didn"t act on the ground... Chinchon did well tbh as the inside draws have a good advantage there when its soft because its such a short run [200m] to the 1st turn, he still had a fair bit to make up in the home straight, the front runner runner set a fair pace...

good luck wayne, i"m taking a chance with Expense Claim, he ran the London Gold Cup in a near group2 pace, Balding could of gone the logical route and aimed EC at the King George V handicap, but he"s diverted him for a crack at the Cocked Hat? Balding doesn"t often over estimate a horses ability so at 2/1+ its worth a punt....

it will be interesting to see if Gosden has another Masked Marvel on his hands...

Fortune nearly nicked that with a superb ride, Michelangelo met well be a proper group1 horse, he did well to make up 5or6 lengths to win narrowly, that hint of being able to quicken giving Expense Claim that much rope who i think is a good group2,3 sort of std makes Michelangelo look rather good [plus he"ll be better over flatter and more experience]

a interesting Gosden hotpot [again :)]

German 2000 Guineas, May 28th. Red Duke and Caspar Netscher want to challenge german horses.
Very competitive and interesting race.


i"d favour Caspar Netscher just, but anything less than 4/1 i"ll swerve betting, looks as if Tai Chi has a chance though Achim, his mixture High Chaparral and Big Shuffle, quote me if i"m wrong Achim [its late :)] but Precious Boy was out of Big Shuffle, his speed should be in Tai Chi"s genetics but why drop him in distance after a good run in the Criterium de saint-cloud?  now 1st time out as 3year old, its a odd route to take plus he"ll be running on quicker ground for the 1st time... meh :) if he drifts on betfair across here, i"ll back 7/1+ and i"ll probably lay for now [but for not to much :)]
if Amarillo has trained on then he"s in the mix, hard to know what to make of that lto run beating a decent filly [Survey] at Dusseldorf on soft ground but his run behind Amaron last year on good met bode well... Red Duke should improve for the better ground, so thats another fly in the ointment :)
hmmmm i think i be happy playing the layer on this one Achim :)
Title: Re: Saturday Donkey
Post by: CincinnatiKid on May 28, 2012, 10:33:58 AM
@noble Thanks for analysis.;)

IMO we"ll see one of the most thrilling German 2000 Guineas over the past years.

I"m totally sure that one of the german horses will win it. It"s not patriotism why I think so. Can"t believe that the performance of both british horses are good enough this time to to take it down.

Tai Chi was an excellent 2y and the aim was to prepare him for the french and maybe german derby. Now they scratched him and drop him in distance, which will give him a top chance, if he is at 100%. Trainer is a great guy, whole family are horsemen, had a lot of fun with him but sadly he"s seriously ill ( lung cancer) and wish with all of my heart that Tai Chi will win it. Fingers cross for you Werner!

Amarillo and Energizer are two top horses and imo both are in the finish. One dark horse I have pick up, it"s Pastorius. This horse scared me a bit and nobody should underestimate him. Result of last race didnt show his class because he didnt found a passage last furlong. This horse is really interesting and gain any attention for all your bets.

Good luck for your picks today.

BLACK ARROW, no doubts that he"ll be the winner of Bavarian Classic Gr3. at Munich-Riem race course. He"s one of the top German Derby favourites. W. Buick booked as his jockey again. Owners are german Bundesliga football players Claudio Pizzaro (Bayern Munich) and Tim Borowski (Werder Bremen).

What a disappointment. What should I say, congrat to british connections of Caspar Netscher. Red Duke as 3rd runs also very well. Tai Chi never in the race and other real beaten.

Black Arrow finished 2nd. in Bavarian Classic very close to longshot Pakal.

Epsom is nearly here, the Oaks and the Derby look like they met produce some useful sorts this year.. Camelot is a obvious possible but the price isn"t very tempting :).. Could Bonfire win it? it looks like it was decent Dante this year, will an extra 2furlongs suit though being a son of Manduro?, [are you backing it Achim?] considering this was his debut run Bonfire could be a lot closer ability wise to Camelot than what the market suggests.. Bonfire to my eye looks like a top 10f performer but the extra 2furlongs maybe just stretching it so from a value angle i"ve had a wee sized win bet on Parish Hall, Bolger has PH in the Irish 2000 Guineas, basically following the same prep routine as he did with New Approach, 21+ is a good win punt on betfair imho and a place bet as well :)
Astrology is well worth a place bet, he moved well despite the bog at Chester so to my eye he will handle quicker ground.. As a 2year old he was entered in the Futurity Stakes and moved better than all the rest [Parish Hall included] but when McCabe asked him to pick up his tail waved around and he swerved left to the rail finishing up 3rd.. Astrology"s last race as a 2year old, O"Brien entered him in the Autumn Stakes at Newmarket and again he showed similar traits swerving to the rail...I"d put that down to the big wide open space of Newmarket and the Curragh and greenness, none of that was shown at Chester on his seasonal re-appearance in the Dee Stakes, Epsom"s tight turns and far less open track will suit him so i"ve had a small win bet and had a bit bigger place bet :)

so without the waffle...

Epsom Derby 2/6/2012
Astrology - win and place
Parish Hall - win and a place shame, this horse is seriously good


Some great racing at Epsom is approaching and i"m still backing Astrology for the Derby :)
The Oaks looks as if its between the Fugue, Maybe and Kissed, the Fugue is obvious and has been priced up about right, Maybe the same, Kissed on the other hand at best price 11"s on betfair is more of a betting proposition imho, only raced on soft so going questions to answer but looking at how she moves then the better going met/will bring about more improvement, her run in the Salsabil Stakes at Navan was impressive, both visually and by the stopwatch over the last 3furlongs winning by over eight lengths with hardly any pushing, three parts sister to Pour Moi [dam - Gwynn] adds a bit optimism that she"ll handle good to firm.. Build wise like Pour Moi she has that athletic horse look which ticks the box could she handle Epsom, so i"m having nibbles on betfair as she drifts currently :)
Of the rest -
Vow - long striding, still running green, deep chested suggests 1m4f no problem but maybe will prove to be better over further.. With that long stride plus how she went wide at the bend at Lingfield lto is what puts me off her, not only is the price off putting but how on earth will she handle running downhill around Tattenham Corner plus the camber too is rather stretching chancing odds of 5to6/1..
Outsiders -
Shirocco Star - obvious, sticks out like a sore thumb and the market has reacted, still worth a small dabble though..
Betterbetterbetter - not so obvious, 2nd to Good Morning Star in the bog at Chester who will win again if she ever gets conditions like that again so Betterbetterbetter wasn"t disgraced, she looked the winner coming into the home straight, a touch of the idles plus the soft ground got her beaten narrowly.. She gave the impression to me that better ground will suit and is worth a each way punt @33/40/1+ and a place bet on betfair.....

@noble Thanks for analysis.;)

IMO we"ll see one of the most thrilling German 2000 Guineas over the past years.

I"m totally sure that one of the german horses will win it. It"s not patriotism why I think so. Can"t believe that the performance of both british horses are good enough this time to to take it down.

Tai Chi was an excellent 2y and the aim was to prepare him for the french and maybe german derby. Now they scratched him and drop him in distance, which will give him a top chance, if he is at 100%. Trainer is a great guy, whole family are horsemen, had a lot of fun with him but sadly he"s seriously ill ( lung cancer) and wish with all of my heart that Tai Chi will win it. Fingers cross for you Werner!

Amarillo and Energizer are two top horses and imo both are in the finish. One dark horse I have pick up, it"s Pastorius. This horse scared me a bit and nobody should underestimate him. Result of last race didnt show his class because he didnt found a passage last furlong. This horse is really interesting and gain any attention for all your bets.

Good luck for your picks today.




Werner Baltromei, age 49, passed away this morning. Great guy and horseman is gone. Can"t believe it. R.I.P.
He was the first german horse trainer who focused french horse racing continiously.

sad and tragic to die so young Achim...

as for Kissed in the Oaks Anne-Marie OB tweeted she will only run if there is ease in the ground, my limited understanding is that they are happy to run on the current ground, odd to tweet about preferred ground 2days before the race? the rest is up to Andy Cooper and how much watering is done between now and Friday.. The Oaks ante post is suspended now so its a sweat now as to the going.................... :-X

i was gutted because Kissed was pulled out lol, Was ran well but look at this Achim - http://horses.sportinglife.com/Arch_Race_Pup/0,13215,497907,00.html
Aaraas and Cleofila finished 2nd and 4th with Was in 3rd in the Blue Wind Stakes... Aaraas and Cleofila both got totally out classed by Kissed and lost by 8.5 lengths + .............. SIGH  :)  
Shirocco Star ran well and The Fugue will be my Ribblesdale pick if she runs at Ascot, the Irish Oaks has to be in Gosden"s thoughts now i would guess come July....

German 1000 Guineas next sunday and Lady of Budysin will be the longshot of the race. 18/1!?! It"s exactly that what you wrote above. Compare performances and imo odds are unreal. Guess it"s a good pick for fixed odds W/P. More than Money back if she runs 3rd. British Electrelane is favourite.

Any bet is very speculative today and Im unsure that Lady of Budysin prefer soft ground but it"s still the horse with the best value.

the final race time on a turning mile was 1m 40.40s , tbh i can"t make head nor tail of the race times at Dusseldorf they are all over the place for various ground descriptions Achim...  :)
the IFHA had Alianthus on a rating of 117 so using him as the Mr consistent yardstick for Dusseldorf doesn"t make this guineas look all that strong yet Laugh out loud wins a 3yo group2 fillies race in Chantilly worth 63k to the winner, i"m left scratching my head as to how good this generation actually are tbh ???
good race to watch though Achim, i"m very surprised that the race wasn"t awarded to Cherry Danon tbh , in the end only a short head separated the 2 horses at the finish line plus considering after the stewards enquiry they decided on banning Crowley for over use of the whip.......

i"m having a early punt on the St Ledger with Michelangelo @20"s with Laddies and WH with a view to a bit of trading on Betfair in the future.. he won the Cocked Hat Stakes beating Expense Claim giving him maybe to much rope in the run in but his class got him out of trouble, MA is entered up for the King Edward VII Stakes, the same route Gosden took with Arctic Cosmos, speculative but potentially profitable angles...

Important german derby trial UNION RACE will held on sunday at Cologne Race Course. Hot fav willl be NOVELLIST, but keep an eye on ANDREAS! At the moment best fixed odds for ANDREAS are 250/10 Win and 58/10 Place. If he"ll run a good race the odds crash down. Since 2010 it"s possible to make a post-nomination for german derby. So I"m unsure that there will be a international crack like Buzzworld 2010. To bet a horse at this early stage it"s always monopoly. ;D

(http://www.thesportofkings.co.uk/rogercms/userfiles/Priceless%20Jewel(3).jpg)
RC"s quote before the race at Kempton which she won cosily on the AW during all the rain way back in early May [has it stopped yet?]
Quote
There are a few interesting runners in todays race but I am expecting her to run well as her work has been encouraging, but I would have preferred to have run her on the turf but unfortunately there are no suitable races which aren"t being run on soft or heavy ground.

soft at York today....... her action suggests it would be suited to better ground so don"t go bezerk if you are backing her today..... [now watch her hose up lol]
so ends the drivel for today ;D
good luck whatever you punt on today, may the gambling gods bestow great luck upon you..........

unlucky James, u could lump a large sum on Frankel and then have a sickie for the rest of the week :)

the races i"m looking forward to are obvious the 1st, to see how Frankel is progressing, in the 2nd Ortensia has improved so much since Paul Messara took over the training of her.. Yet to lose for Paul in 3 races, the last 2 being group1"s, her run in meydan in the Al Quoz sprint was exceptional. Messara is a great young trainer and the last horse that he ran over here in the July Cup Alverta finished 3rd to Starspangledbanner and he rates this mare Ortensia much higher, she"s been here training at Newmarket since early April so it will be interesting to see how his judgement of bringing over this speedy mare turns out.
the 3rd race the St James"s i"m more intrigued to see how Lucayan gets on, his sire Turtle Bowl finished second on the freshmen sire's list last year in France, French Fifteen [by Turtle Bowl] won the group1 Criterium as a 2yo and then ran well in our 2000 Guineas and then Lucayan won the French version, Turtle Bowl stands for a fee of 6,000 Euros atm, somehow i think that fee maybe rising in the near future :) Lucayan was considered a shock winner in the French 2000 but i"ve watched it over and over and i can"t see any reasons as to why he can"t reproduce that form, in fact all the french horses have a decent shout, with the prize money in France now being the best in europe and generally the whole race structuring getting better and better, in future we met in the UK have to get used to the idea of more winners of our top races coming over from France, maybe it will start this year, who knows :)

Meh its just variance and the law of randomness James :) we"ll slot one in at a big price at some point, maybe it wont be at Ascot :) but at another meet, we"ll play the long run....
Agreed on Frankel, another slaughter that some sceptics are playing down, i did a little maths on the speed ratings and looking at the turftrax feed, they clocked Frankel in his race in a furlong 0.2 secs faster than Little Bridge"s fastest in the King"s Stand....... in the 3f to the 2f mark Frankel ran it in 10.58 secs , Little Bridge from the 4f to 3f marker ran his fastest furlong clocking 10.78 secs... thats just phenomenal fast for a miler, it will interesting to see what Black Caviar clocks :) will it shut the Aussies up? naaaaaa :o

ok not a bad day picks wise,the hunt cup was profitable i had 18"s on Prince Of Johanne, 10"s on Dimension and Don"t Call Me i had managed to get on ew at 66"s - Prince of Johanne won and Don"t Call Me finished 3rd..
Farhh was 3rd but if u are into your racing then watch the replay and watch the home straight, they highlighted it on the BBC as it was fairly obvious but Farhh got hampered a couple of times by the big American lump, in my view if getting a clear run Frankie met of got up, but thats racing..
Hairy Rocket and Upward Spiral came home 3rd and 4th in the Queen Mary, both are worth following again in similar conditions, HR i think will improve a tad more on good to firm going, Upward Spiral will improve no matter what, she"s a lovely big thing who will only get better as she grows...
Duntle won the last nicely and will get better as the season goes, i"m not convinced she"s a top class group1 type but she"ll hold her own and i"ll follow her but i won"t go crazy backing her with large sums.. Devotion ran a shocker but i"ll keep an eye out to see what route AOB takes with her...
of the horses that ran in the opening two races the 2 to take from them was Producer and Emulous, it shouldn"t be to hard to find a race for those two... Bannock hmmm met be of interest if he turns up at the Glorious Goodwood meet, Nahrain i"ll avoid for now in future...

Day 3 tomorrow and as ever it will be tough, my shortlists aren"t very short :) so i"ll while the night away going back through video replays with a beer or 2 :)

Great result for ENERGIZER and Adrie and Jens. Great guys, know both of them well.


i hope u had a euro or two on it Achim, Energizer ran really well, a well deserved win for connections taking a chance across here imho...


Sadly no,:) but Im happy to see a jockey who took his chance very late of his careeer here in germany and a trainer who took his chance out of the shadow of former and now in HongKong based trainer Andreas Schutz. Both deserve a winning like that and Im very happy about that. Great guys !!!

Read that a 35" GBP bet on Energize was the highest single bet. Guess odds 10/1 made some one happy.;)

Imo Black Caviar looks a bit "on heat" today and maybe that"s the reason why her trainer saw not 100% of her.
Nevertheless 22th victory in a row. Great filly.

Fast Shot was 16/1 this morning then a fair bit of money throughout the day added with Mr TE"s money on , he opened 12"s on course and was duly cut down to 8"s, i hope u took a price..
good luck Pables, if u ever fancy a flutter on the exotics and u go with my picks :o , gives us a heads up on here or pm and i"ll give it some thought angle wise for a Goliath[i tend to work well under pressure if i know some1"s money is on], i usually  put up picks from a singles view, u"d be in profit today if backing in singles... if i"d known earlier i"d suggested EW Polygon and Luhaif , i"d dabbled on them with a bit of hope nothing more and both won ok [lucky]........

Gr1 German Derby

One of the hottest favourites since years NOVELLIST will be the horse to beat. Always impressive winner but never runs over 2400m. So this race ask for stamina and thats always the key for success. 14 runners and it would be no surprise when a dark horse will run on to the top. Made a combined trifecta with a couple of horses. To pick a winner is a pure riddle and to bet Novellist no motivation.

Had always an eye to Andolini, but Girolamo and Black Arrow could be a strong competitor.

@noble Thanks for analysis.;)

IMO we"ll see one of the most thrilling German 2000 Guineas over the past years.

I"m totally sure that one of the german horses will win it. It"s not patriotism why I think so. Can"t believe that the performance of both british horses are good enough this time to to take it down.

Tai Chi was an excellent 2y and the aim was to prepare him for the french and maybe german derby. Now they scratched him and drop him in distance, which will give him a top chance, if he is at 100%. Trainer is a great guy, whole family are horsemen, had a lot of fun with him but sadly he"s seriously ill ( lung cancer) and wish with all of my heart that Tai Chi will win it. Fingers cross for you Werner!

Amarillo and Energizer are two top horses and imo both are in the finish. One dark horse I have pick up, it"s Pastorius. This horse scared me a bit and nobody should underestimate him. Result of last race didnt show his class because he didnt found a passage last furlong. This horse is really interesting and gain any attention for all your bets.



What an amazing finish and Terry Hellier made it with a great jockeyship. He deserve it absolutely. Top jockey in germany for so many years, also trainer Mario Hofer. Both wins the derby first time.

Derby winner PASTORIUS 321/10 winnner was still in thoughts. So I hit the trifecta and exacta, sadly GIRALOMO finished by a noose 3rd. Guess both bets had paid much more more Im still happy about the result.

1. 5 Pastorius    
2. 1 Novellist          
3. 7 Girolamo    

Win: 321/10
Place: 49-16-25/10
Ex: 726/10
Tri: 6716/10

yep good spot Achim , i was on with a couple of singles with Pastorius and Black Arrow, the price discrepancy between the two was rather odd taking into account when they faced each other at Cologne and Krefeld, Pastorius was full of running when 4th over 9f at Krefeld behind Amaron.. amazing price....

Post by: noble1 on July 10, 2012, 02:31:35 AM
made a small profit of 4.2 points Saturday following the week before with a 5 point gain, slowly but surely :) Number Theory won and Twice Over placed.
all in all the thread is approx +91 points up since the flat season started just doing Saturdays, the Newmarket Guineas, York and Ascot meetings.. Nothing spectacular but i"ll strive to improve upon that as the season goes, i"ve been experimenting with a long shot scatter gun approach that is +340 points up on betfair since i started that on May 8th, as i refine my logic i"ll start to put up some picks on here, but its not for the faint hearted :) although this being a poker community will mean most will understand the variance involved, the little dips, the big dips ;D, the big and small gains and the long break-even stretches :)

below is a good short video about Secretariat, that long stride is so much similar to that of Frankel"s don"t you think?

Title: Re: Saturday Donkey
Post by: noble1 on July 12, 2012, 04:24:28 AM
right lets have a crack at the Newmarket July meet, with all the rain the odd surprise met happen :)

1:20 - Bahrain Trophy
i"m not a fan of betting short prices and i want to take on Gosden"s entry - Shantaram, i prefer to back 1m4f winners in this race and as Valiant and Rewarded haven"t raced further than 10f then at the prices i prefer Yazdi should handle ground conditions plus the drop back to 13f should be more suitable after his lto at Ascot in the Queens Vase and it won"t be surprising if he causes a minor shock at odds of 6/1 atm with the street bookies, trading around the 8.4 mark on BF as i write...

1:50 - TNT July Stakes
Gale Force Ten @3/1 as i write
Alhebayeb @11/2 as i write, you might get 8"s on BF if you get on early, i"ll be surprised if his price gets any bigger..

the ground sways me towards these two, Sir Prancealot"s action puts me off him, Ahern met improve but at the prices i"d favour Gale Force Ten to be the better of the two from the Norfolk Stakes..
the Windsor Castle Stakes was a pretty decent race again this year and the obvious one is Alhebayeb, Smoothtalkinrascal didn"t get the best of runs and it won"t surprise me one jot if he improves for the step up in trip, i met be tempted with a each way punt if his price keeps drifting..

2:25 - Goldsmiths Handicap
Silver Blaze @16/1
Zaina @16/1

both can be backed at bigger on BF at 19"s and 24"s currently... Nabucco and Hajras have solid claims but in such a open looking race on paper they are way to short for me to back...

3:00 - Princess of Wales"s Goldsmiths Stakes
Quest For Peace
Fiorente - both trading at 14"s in the main, better prices to be had on BF for both [especially Q.for.P]

both ran in the Hardwicke but should come on from that as both didn"t get the race ran to suit, i"ve picked the winner for this race for the last two runnings - Crystal Capella and Sans Frontieres, Leigh met remember the latter who won at 14/1 because he couldn"t see why i had picked it out that year, well the Hardwicke was a rather good race that year with Harbinger winning rather nicely.. This years renewal was rather decent and Sea Moon will be hard to beat if he goes for the King George next [just like Harbinger] so keep that in mind... Red Cadeaux should win if he re-produce his Hardwicke run but i have niggling doubts as to whether he is truly suited to Newmarket, so at the prices Quest For Peace and Fiorente appeal, Q.for.P likes Newmarket and the ground is no problem, if he re-produces his form as when behind Al Kazeem then he could cause a shock.. Fiorente should be backed just for Stoutes record in this, plus with Ryan Moore back aboard today that should bring about some more improvement... so to keep my Princess of Wales"s record intact remember i did fancy Red Cadeaux [but not at 5/2 :)]

Title: Re: Saturday Donkey
Post by: noble1 on July 12, 2012, 22:42:14 PM
profit so far = +103.5 points

NEWMARKET 13th July
1:20 - Piper-Heidsieck Handicap
Illaunglass 16/1
Hello Glory 16/1

both could be well handicapped for 7 furlongs, i don"t like a overly exposed sort over the trip in this race so they both fit the bill.. Both have course experience and can act on the forecast ground... Hunt around for the best price as they vary from firm to firm, some are only offering 12"s about the pair....

1:50 - The Bonus King Stakes Handicap
Muaamara 20/1
Bayleyf 20/1

both are on decent marks and could spring a surprise, Muaamara won cosily at Goodwood and maybe progressive, Bayleyf"s ran ok lto at Sandown behind Pearl Secret and looks a tad under estimated in the market..


i"ll edit post tomorrow morning with the other two televised races...


2:25 - Cherry Hinton Stakes
Premier Steps 6/1

i"ll stick with the Albany being the better race rather than the Queen Mary this year, Sendmylovetorose is an obvious, Jadanna ran well in the Queen Mary and might go well.. Of the others at bigger prices Fantacise may run a big race, first time blinkers lto at Pontefract did the trick on boggy ground and at 33/1 maybe worth a each way bet...

3:00 - Falmouth Stakes
Barefoot Lady ew 66"s
Lay Time ew 14"s


i want to take on Golden Lilac :) just purely because she has never tackled Newmarket before [i"d make her around a 7/4 shot to win this]
Maybe has chances but the odds are off putting, Elusive Kate the other 3yo would of been on my radar if she would of had a run this season. Of the rest Barefoot Lady can handle the ground and Newmarket and ran well lto at Ascot behind Joviality, likewise the lightly raced Laytime handles Newmarket and looks like she"ll be progressive on this type of ground.. If it had been better ground today Joviality would of been my only bet in this race, the ground should scupper her chance...

the best of good luck with your picks today Achim...

Missed GRACIA DIRECTA yesterday (15/1 :(). Wins the York Gr3. Biggest success for Dominik Moser. Know him too, together with his father Rolf he worked for years at family owned Stud Trona and since 1-2 years he got the license to train horses. Congrat !

@noble

Keep an eye to JOSEPHINE BLANCHE at John Smith"s City Walls Stakes/York today. Last time the filly runs 3rd to GRACIA DIRECTA, 6f, good ground and 2 1/2 l behind. Stallion Tannenkoenig was able to cope soft ground, not sure what the damn"s gene. ??? Imo the 5f will be much better for her. Would be no surprise if she try to run the race from the top of the field.

complete blank for my picks, wish i was on Danedream, she ran really well Achim, i really wanted to go again this year to Ascot to watch the King George but the Open golf is on  :)
myself and Grandpa [who has a habit of visiting when i have some cigars :)] are watching the golf every day start to finish along with bacon butties and egg banjo"s in the morning.. I then break out the Reservadas Tequila in the afternoon which has to be enjoyed with a good Tequila snifter so u can catch all those lovely aromas and accordingly have a quality cigar..
cannot think why Gramps keeps popping around :)

unlucky noble, hope your enjoy the golf open. Played it as a kid just for fun without any teaching lessons. My golf clubs are still in my cellar.  ;D

MEANDRE hot fav for Gr. Preis von Berlin today. (18/10)

NAVARRA QUEEN at Maisson Laffitte 6. race today should be a value bet. 68/10 at the moment.

Munich, July 29th, Gr.1 Grosser Dallmayr Preis

Normally ZAZOU should be the fav in the race. No doubts about his class and 2000m are the best distance.Guess he likes any ground so imo he should be the horse to beat.

PASTORIUS wins the german derby July 1st. Great horse but a bit doubts about his condition after an exertive race. Lot of the derby winners struggles and need their time to compensate it. Think 2000m are not perfect, better to see him on 2400m.

WALDPARK, last years derby winner, is also a candidate to win this race. Prefer to see him at 2400m but he"s in a good shape and any rain should improve his chances. He was beaten by Ovambo Queen this month ( finished close as 4th last sunday in Gr.1 behind Meandre and Earl of Tinsdale)  

PAKAL, Gr.2 winner at the Munich race course in May ( beat derby co-fav Black Arrow) is a dark horse in this race. Scratched from derby this race was focused after his biggest success. Not to underestimate with a 3y weight allowance of 4,5kg.

FEUERBLITZ, 2012 Derby Italiano winner (2200m) could find a perfect distance. There were no disappointments after his 10th place in german derby. As a son of top stallion Big Shuffle he should prefer this distance than 2200-2400m, indipendent of his great success in Italy this May.

DURBAN THUNDER came without any reference since he wins this race last year (runner-up Famous Name/D.Weld). Struggles as a 11/10 fav at his first 2012 start in lower class 2 weeks ago.

THEO DANON and KING"s HALL should be not the horses to finish at the top. I dislike to bet any of the 3y derby horses because in the past a lot of them couldnt compensate this race for month.

My pick: ZAZOU 28/10 - PAKAL - 100/10 - WALDPARK 42/10

Will look later and will post me picks
Title: Re: Saturday Donkey
Post by: noble1 on August 03, 2012, 10:22:29 AM
i just don"t think the bookies will take any chances with Conduct and will price him up accordingly plus add in the market which will probably back him.. if he is 9/1+ he will be worth a punt.. [on my book that is :)] i can"t see him getting that big though.. best guess he"ll open no bigger 9/2...

Goodwood Oak Tree Stakes

Guess that GAMILATI is the logical favourite. German GRACIA DIRECTA surprisingly wins Summer Stakes / York but I"m more interested to combine some bets around SURVEY. Like the distance and if ground will be not to soft/heavy Tom Queally could have a nice ride. APPEALING is another horse in my bets.

Good luck noble and nosey-p !;)

SURVEY runs well, GRACIA DIRECTA finished at the end of the field. Expected that the distance is not perfect, prefer 1200m but also the favourite GAMILATI struggeled. APPEALING finished 3rd runs very well and paid 42/10, sadly no single bet on her.

Jockey Andrasch did it well and gave her an easy race. All our attention now to Paris and the Prix l"Arc de Triomphe. Im sure she"ll run a great race again.

Big disappointment for all who were excited about a Triple Crown horse after so many years. Looking forward and the good news are that Camelot is not longer Arc-Favourite. German Danedream new odd favourite. Imo Camelot will win the Arc and the odds are much better than today.;) Def we"ll see one of the best Arc"s since years. Snow Fairy, Meandre, Nathaniel, Danedream, Camelot, Shareta, St. Nicholas Abbey and japanese Orfevre. Hope for fair conditions for all at oct 7th.

It"s really a bit eerie. Team Schiergen / Starke wins again. This time derby 3rd Girolamo wins Gr. Preis von Europa after another great jockeyship from jockey Andrasch Starke, who seems to be spured by his fatherhood.

:) not the greatest day yesterday , lifetime its a plus :)

had a read of TKays thread on the free bet thing, if anyone has a free bet in hand then u have to take into account the over round, believe it or not the race betting markets are pretty efficient, so without writing a thesis study on market efficiency just look for a race/event with semi to strong market info with as low of a over round as u can find and it doesn"t matter long term what odds u take..

Tough race to sort, Grandouet and Countrywide Flame are unproven, Zarkandar fell last year at the sixth and most probably would need the ground softer today to be in the mix. Which leaves only 3 other realistic contenders, Oscar Whisky 7/8 over 20f and 21f, Thousand Stars who keeps chasing OW home in the last 2 runnings of this race, then we have the The New One who reminds me of Solwhit when he won at 5 years old in this race back in 2009. Hmmm i should just watch but i need some invested interest :) so i"ll side with The New One having managed to get 4/1 with WH this morning. I"ll watch OW in running and may have a saver, strange that Geraghty has jumped off but it wouldn"t be the first time he"s made the wrong call.

Post by: noble1 on April 18, 2013, 14:14:16 PM
couple of winners at Kempton Wayne [nice pick with One Word More]

On the turf its yet to get going for me to get involved with serious stakes but after being at the races yesterday [bloody windy] i"ve lumped a bit on Hot Snap for the 1000 Guineas, its hard to see anything thats far superior at this stage, Certify was a proper Group1 2yo which was backed up by the times she recorded plus she has a good turn of foot [sign of class imho]

I"ve had a speculative punt on Tawhid for the 2000 Guineas who i hope will shorten today after the Craven prep, his run in the Horris Hill last year makes him a contender imo.
I"ve also had a dabble on George Vancouver in the 2000 Guineas market, he looked the type physically who would train on from 2 to 3 and Dawn Approach is way to short for the 2000G, he had way to many races as a 2yo plus Bolger has constantly been quoted how lazy he is at home, so my theory is that Dawn Approach will be a bugger to get fit.. [plus i like opposing Dewhurst winners, apart from the year Frankel won it of course :)]

Derby wise Telescope might shorten even more if Stoute aims him at the Dante, but at a price i"ve had a dabble on Trading Leather who Bolger has entered for the Derrinstown Stud Derby Trial [plus entries for the 2000G and the Dante] I"m hoping he takes the Derby route as he looked the type to improve, especially if he gets to run on good or faster ground..

Today at Ripon in the 3.20 6f sprint i"ve had a couple of small win bets on Swilly Ferry and Chunky Diamond in a very wide open race on paper [Baldemar was of interest but at single figures its a swerve unless he drifts]

Scottish Grand National @ Ayr 3:50

the short list -
Rigadin De Beauchene
Bradley
Auroras Encore
Neptune Equester
Rebeccas Choice
Lively Baron

so my magic pin plumps on -
Rigadin De Beauchene @20"s
Bradley @16"s
Rebeccas Choice @20"s

reserve - Neptune Equester @14"s


Tawhid ran a duffer, likely he needs soft ground so if it rains come 2000 Guineas day it might not be such a bad bet :)
Others to note from the craven meeting - the obvious Hot Snap and the first two home in 10f h/c Soviet Rock and Hillstar trained by Balding and Stoute. Hillstar is entered for the Dante and the Derby and the race time suggests he"s up to that sort of level. These two maybe on the same sort of ability level as Main Sequence and Wigmore Hall who have won this race in the past. [so i"ve had a little nibble at 105"s for Hillstar on betfair with the view to some possible trading if he turns out as good as what the time figures suggest]

hmmm was she on them last year? crikey its a good job its Sheikh Mohammed"s own little training operation plaything, the going rate of £75 a day per horse with a decent top trainer at Newmarket and your horse couldn"t race cos the trainer has been a tad underhand, i"d do my nut >:(

2000 Guineas - i"ve had some each way money on Fort Knox at 33"s and 25"s, again soft going won"t be a problem, Dubawi his sire gets all types of ground, so at a decent price i think its worth a punt that even if come the day the ground is good or better at Newmarket that Fort Knox might even improve [like Makfi]...
A horse he beat last year at Newbury Sea Shanty hosed up at Windsor last night off a very generous h/c mark :)
http://www.racingpost.com/horses/result_home.sd?race_id=575724&r_date=2013-04-22&popup=yes#results_top_tabs=re_&results_bottom_tabs=ANALYSIS
if you get a chance watch the race, me thinks Sea Shanty might be worth following for the next few races...

Fort Knox meanwhile has won the Leopardstown 2000 Guineas trial stakes this year back on the 14th rather cosily in a oddly paced race, maybe going too quick early for the ground conditions BUT Knox hosed up the home straight beating a decent runner up... http://www.sportinglife.com/racing/results/14-04-2013/leopardstown/result/555689/leopardstown-2-000-guineas-trial-stakes-listed/video
Thats my 2000G antepost book sorted , one duffer [it seems] who will relish soft going, a typical A P O"Brien type in George Vancouver who will love quick conditions and a dark horse type in Fort Knox..
Hot Snap for the 1000G and come closer to race day i might back something else if it stands out....

Title: Re: Saturday Donkey
Post by: noble1 on May 04, 2013, 00:16:28 AM
Some of my 2000 Guineas ante post picks have fallen by the wayside just leaving George Vancouver.. 1000 Guineas i"m only interested in the Sir HC filly :) Hot Snap, i"m happy with the 5/1 i got, that"s looking value to me...

Van der Neer is my only other pick for the 2000G, i"ve got on at 25/1, his price has since been cut to 20"s in general.....


Reasons to oppose the front 2 in the 2000G [apart from the obvious cos of the short prices about the pair :)]

Dawn Approach
He has the right blend of speed and stamina for this race with a dosage of 1.67 and a CD of 0.38.. He was the Champion 2 year old last season and never got beat, so i should be lumping on right? hmmm the odds are rather skinny ;D
Plus if you look at the records of how the 2 year old champions fared as 3 year olds it makes 7/4 15/8 look off putting, 14 of the last 25 2yo champs failed to win in group1 company over a mile plus, if you look even deeper into the stats the early debut and the amount of runs as a juvenile Dawn Approach had count as negatives against him [plus did i mention the short odds :) and he"s no Frankel imho]
In the Dewhurst he was nearly two lengths behind his pacemaker Leitir Mor and Manning had to get rowing before he picked up, on soft"ish going that day thats ok but if he repeats that on quicker ground [plus 1st race of the season] i can see him getting beat by one or two...
Quite rightly he is the favourite to win but he isn"t for me at the odds.....

Toronado
Unbeaten, Mr Hughes is saying all the right things and so the media band wagon gets rolling.. What have i seen? there"s no doubting he"s group class, but group 1 class over a mile? hmmm from what i gather from his past form is that up to now he hasn"t beaten any real decent horse yet, in the two pattern class races he won as a 2yo the horses he beat they went on to run 30 times, not one of them has won a race.. hmmmm 2/1  :)
Add in the stats for Craven winners, only 1 has gone on to win the 2000G out of the last 21 to try that particular double..
Ok ok the media pundits point out how impressive he was in winning the Craven, yes it was a quick time BUT the one advantage i had of being there to see it rather than watch it on the TV is that i know it was bloody windy that day, Toronado just about had a tail wind which aided his front running tactics [possibly :)] , in fact that day there was 4 front running winners which kind of makes me think that the tail wind was definitely helping that day, PLUS Soviet Rock ran the 2nd fastest 10f ever at Newmarket that day [from the front].. So if anyone mentions what a great speed rating Toronado produced that day, please be sure to ask them what adjustments they made for the wind ;)
Is he on the likely winner list? of course he is, BUT the odds are way to short ;) plus his dosage index is 0.89 which suggests the Derby the better target of the 2 classics.. In recent times the DI for the 2000G winners has been a avg of 1.73 although the last 2 Frankel and Camelot were both 0.94, is there any logic to believe Toronado is in that sphere of ability?

Any outsiders?
Only 2 realistic ones imho - George Vancouver and Van Der Neer
The DI for this years 2000G ranges from 0.89 Toronado to 2.43 Glory Awaits @ 200/1 , the sweet spot from a DI point of view plus what form there is to go by points at GV and VdN as being the most likely dangers to the front 2 in the betting..
GV can possibly make up 3.5 lengths on Dawn Approach on quicker ground, is action suggests it, his subsequent race in the breeders cup backs that up.. Worth chancing at the prices each way imo...
VdN hasn"t done anything wrong, ran a good race in the racing post trophy on unsuitable ground [for him] and backed that up with a good run lto at Lingfield, a good prep 28 days before the 2000G and suitable time to recover [oh thats another negative for Toronado, only 16 days off between races]
so VdN is a tasty each way punt as well imho.....

possible 1234 - [take your pick from these :)]

1 - Dawn Approach
2 - George Vancouver
3 - Van der Neer
4 - Toronada

Mars could be anything but has had just the one race, O"Brien has never prepped any of previous 2000G winners this way so maybe eyeing this more as a prep for the Derby..
Cristoforo Colombo hasn"t raced beyond 6f, his pedigree says he will stay but why did O"Brien not run him over 7f last year if he had the Guineas in mind for him?
Garswood looks like he"ll make a better sprinter than a miler, it won"t surprise me if he turns up at Royal Ascot with an entry in the Jubilee Stakes.
Leitir Mor is surely just a pace maker, strange things happen though :)
Kyllachy Rise is yet to win, what is Sir HC thinking? the owner wants a day out is my guess...

        Assizes @14/1 might cause a upset

2:15 - Bonfire @3/1+ should win but not for me.
        Danadana - could go well if not to much rain between now and race time.

2:45 - Mister Impatience @7/1+

3:15 - Baddilini
        Dashing David

3:50 - Fine n Dandy - might take some stopping.
        Quincel - Dascombes other runner can"t be dismissed

4:25 - Mayaasem @11/2+
        Moviesta @7/1+ [i might have a small punt on these two, depending on how the ground is riding]


so just the 5:00 Tres Coranas & John Biscuit to have a punt on, the rest i"ll watch :)

15:30 Goodwood
Ribbons - should go well if fit..
Naalatt - might cause the probable favourite a shock if she repeats her lto against Sea Shanty.



on Buckland @ 12/1 to, did see 14/1 this morning. But i do like Countrywide Flame

make that 4  :) Tres Coronas won nicely @9/1 [tad bigger on betfair :)]


CHESTER [tomorrow 9th May]
5:00 - Tres Coronas 7/1+ is ok, good run lto behind Icebuster, will run his race no matter what the going tomorrow.
        John Biscuit 12/1+ is ok, 7th and 4 lengths behind Area Fifty One lto at Epsom, this form will get underestimated.


it was my only bet today [John Biscuit non runner] , i"m putting up my other fancies at the prices etc etc my horses of interest do have some thought behind it though :)

YORK [16th May]

1:45 - Cheworee 10/1+
        Bedloe"s Island 9/1+

not convinced by the probable favourite Jamaican Bolt"s lto behind Thunderball, still sticking with the horses that have shown form lto hence the two above.. Dungannon with Moore booked might run well and if the ground stays pretty much as it is then this might be to much on the soft side for Mister Manannan.

3:15 - Set The Trend 14/1+
        St Moritz 20/1+

both with solid pattern form and drawn well, no solid 4yo"s as in previous years imho.. Es Que Love and Dance And Dance could also go well at juicy odds.. The market leaders have to be took on this year, Fort Bastion is coming off a long lay off,Two For Two found his level lto at Thirsk and its hard to see further improvement, Sound Hearts light raced and stepping down in distance is making his seasonal debut and Anderiego will find this race to hot and from his draw will probably get boxed in.:)

Haydock Temple Stakes
3:50 - Spirit Quartz 10/1+ bog
       

forget about the last run of Spirit Quartz and consider his form last year with his close seconds in the Nunthorpe and the King George Stakes behind Ortensia and 10/1 is rather generous :)
LTO behind Sole Power at Newmarket, SQ was on the stands side and never got a tow like the horses drawn center.. This time SQ is drawn one which in recent times is a positive draw plus the ground being good is in his favour, any rain won"t bother him neither... So a 2 point win on Spirit Quartz...

obvious dangers - Sole Power, Reckless Abandon and Kingsgate Native.. the first two are way to short and KN is way to inconsistent at current quoted odds as i write...

Epsom Derby [Saturday]

Dawn Approach - shorter odds than he was for the 2000 guineas over a trip where there is certainly more doubts, tbh you have to be bonkers to back him at current odds, 3/1+ would be more realistic.

Battle of Marengo - he has won his last 5 starts, it was a messy Derrinstown trial but he won it exactly like a 12f horse tackling a 10f race.. he beat Sugar Boy in the Ballysax, SB won well next time out at Sandown in the classic trial with Libertarian trailing 9 lengths back, that makes Libs subsequent Dante win look a bit iffy imho...

Ocovango - the Prix Greffulhe win beating Bravodino looks up to par as does his previous win in the Prix Mathet over Park Reel who went on to lose by a short head to [coolmoor owned] Tableaux in the Prix Hocquart.. its interesting that Tableaux swerves the Epsom Derby..

Chopin - won the Ehrmann cup by 8 lengths, tough to compare to the traditional Derby trials but he didn"t beat a lot imo, Global Bang isn"t a world beater...

Ruler of the World - Chester Vase winner by 6 lengths in a good time, he handled Chester well which is another positive and beautifully bred out of the Kingmambo mare Love Me True, another positive..

of the rest - Mars - i pegged him as a Derby horse before the 2000g and is a live outsider imo.. Libertarian looks all stamina and will be more interesting if he"s aimed at the St. Ledger.. Festive Cheer - has a bit a find with Ocovango based on his lto in the Prix Hocquart but he"s bred by Montjeu who"s progeny have a good strike rate in the Derby and they do tend to progress well so he has each way claims at a juicy price..

My 1-2-3-4

1 - Ocovango 1 point win @ 7/1 [5/1+ ok]
2 - Ruler of the World 1 point win @ 10/1 [13/2+ ok]
3 - Battle of Marengo
4 - Festive Cheer

It was such a slow 2000 Guineas this year and Dawn Approach"s win was flattered a bit imo and the the slow"ish pace over the first 5 furlongs caught a few flat footed, the proximity of Glory Awaits who raced handily and stole a march on the rest behind should set alarm bells ringing.. Add in the extra 4 furlongs, breeding and the equinome test in which Dawn Approach tested CC [Mr Bolger"s behind Equinome] makes this a must back against Dawn Approach imo...

The Oaks [Friday 31st May]

the prices pretty much reflect the relative chances of those at the head of the Oaks market so its time to put my contrary head on as its more open than it looks imo, tbh on paper the std this year looks a tad sub-std compared to previous years.

so after watching the trials over again a few times :) the four that stood out were Liber Nauticus,Madame Defarge,The Lark and Talent.. of the four whose leg action looked like they"d appreciate soft ground i"m more drawn to Madame Defarge and The Lark [Liber Nauticus fits but the price is skinny now] and with Talent"s action the possibly soft ground maybe against her..

Madame Defarge - 1point win @20/1+ [16/1+ ok]
The Lark - 1point win @16/1+ [12/1+ ok]

both trained by Mr Bell and both looked to be carrying a bit of condition lto so i"m hoping for bundles of improvement both fitness wise and for ground preference...

Epson Derby: Ruler Of The World 9/1

German bred Chopin is a real good horse, but good enough for such a race? Not impossible and no surprise when he finished at the top 3. Ocovango, son of legendary german stallion Monsun is also possible to win this race. A bit personal doubts about Dawn Approach. Battle Of Marengo could be the horse to complete a 1-2 O" Brien triumph.

If rain will make heavy ground I"ll make a late single bet on Ocovango too.

Will combine this horses in my trifecta. Good luck!

Dawn Approach confirmed my doubts abouts his stamina. Pulled to much at the beginning so the jockey let him go. May be the reason of his result today. Guess best distance seems to be max 1m 2f. My pick made me happy, bet him 9/1, so good profit. After the replay of the race I wish a bit more confidence by Jamie Spencer. But all in all the connections around Chopin must be proudfull and I"m sure they"ve bought a real good horse.

Congrat WAZ, nice to hear. To be honest, would be great to pick always the winning horses, but it"s not always the best idea to follow my tipps.  ;D Happy to hear about your winning bet on Ruler Of The World and profitable odds. ;)

Today the french derby will run at Chantilly race course. 19 runners an more than an easy race to bet. Decided to make a value bet on #4 LOCH GARMAN, trained by J. Bolger. 14/1 odds at the moment are profitable too. French trained horses INTELLO and SKY HUNTER are the favourites so I"m sure that France will bet "their" horses and my pick will also pay on place good money. Do you bet again my tip?  ;) Good luck!

TV races on Ch4

NEWMARKET 1:45 - Brown Sugar,Musical Comedy and Stalactite stand out amongst the debut runners, the rest seem priced about right, the type of race where you have to be bonkers to bet in imho :) Gm Hopkins 6/4 to win against so many unexposed horses, excuse me as i vomit :o

HAYDOCK 2:05 - Dazinski and Palazzo Bianco for me, open looking race on paper but i prefer to side with horses that have had some Haydock course form over 14f+

NEWMARKET 2:20 - Assizes,Beaufort Twelve,Nabucco and Ehtedaam stand out for various reasons, odds wise Ehtedaam is way to short imho...

HAYDOCK 2:40 - all have a chance in this :) at the odds Nymphea and Souviens Toi purely on not being quite as exposed as the rest. Prussian and Ambivalent stand out and have been priced up about right so from a punting point of view don"t offer much in the ways of a edge...

NEWMARKET 2:55 - Gatepost ran well behind Fulbright and Duke of Firenze last year and has dropped in the weights, Hanagan booking is another positive.. Whozthecat,Intransigent,Summerinthecity,Enrol and Nocturn look the dangers..

HAYDOCK 3:15 - Red Duke might raise a few eyebrows given his recent form but the step down in trip and fast ground will suit and of the rest Pastoral Player and Red Jazz appeal at the odds..

NEWMARKET 3:30 - Angel Gabrial,Rawaki,No Heretic,Suegioo and Gabrial The Great to fight it out..

HAYDOCK 3:50 - Hoyam,Angels Will Fall and Gracia Directa look the likely trio imho

SANDOWN 1:50 - Salutation @14/1 could run well based on his Newmarket & Notty form..

YORK 2:05 - can Crackentorp win this race for the third time? others that i think have a shout at rather juicy odds are Rio"s Rosanna,Dancing Primo,Sir Boss,Nanton and Party Line...

SANDOWN 2:20 - Danchai should be the favourite imho, Ashaadd is way to short. Others that caught my eye form/odds wise were Gaul Wood & Basseterre..

YORK 2:40 - Maven,Fort Belvedere and Clayton can give Westwiththenight a run for her money..

SANDOWN 2:55 - Sandreamer has decent"ish each way possibility"s. Now that Smoothtalkinrascal has withdrawn Morawij is a worthy favourite..

YORK 3:15 - Ladys First,Questioning & Stipulate are the suggestions :)

MUSSELBURGH 3:35 - as per above post i quite fancy the chances of Face The Problem. the 20"s have gone now and is currently trading at 14"s.. [anything below 12"s is poor value]

King"s Stand 3.05 Ascot 18/6/2013
Shamexpress - 10/1 1point e/w bog

The fact that he’s a good Flemington straight horse should transfer well to Ascot, every Ascot winner the Aussies have produced over here has been an outstanding Flemington straight horse, so fingers crossed that bodes well. Shea Shea is the obvious danger but it wasn’t a great Al Qouz that he won in Dubai, ok european sprint form is very average and Shamexpress will be the best sprinter Shea Shea has met up to now imho. Shea Shea will most likely make the running and whoever beats him will have to run him down just like the way Shamexpress nailed Moment of Change in the Newmarket at Flemington lto :)
Craig Newitt is another positive having won this race on Miss Andretti six years ago, Shamexpress is not up there with the absolute best sprinters Austraila have had in the past, but if produces anywhere near his Flemington Newmarket form/win he will be good enough to win the King"s Stand tomorrow.

Talking of Aussie sprinters have a punt on Sea Siren Saturday in the Diamond Jubilee Stakes, if you can get 10/1 or bigger its a decent bet imho.
Title: Re: Saturday Donkey
Post by: noble1 on June 18, 2013, 01:26:14 AM
both your Gosden hotpots have chances imho Wayne, maybe Elusive Kate can get a soft lead and if Buick doesn"t over do it he could get first run and catch Animal Kingdom out and maybe he"ll get caught flat footed like he did in the Breeders Cup Mile and the Gulfstream Handicap, i"ll have my fingers crossed for you fella :)

ASCOT 18/6/2013
2:30 - Animal Kingdom or Elusive Kate should win it, if the first time cheekpieces work the oracle on Gabrial and keep him in a straight line he might [big might] cause a upset and at the least have decent place prospects at a big price.

3:05 - should be between Shea Shea,Shamexpress,Spirit Quartz,Kingsgate Native,Swiss Spirit and Reckless Abandon..

3:45 - Dawn Approach or Magician, Can there be an upset? hmmm Toronado but at 4/1 ish not the greatest bet in the world and George Vancouver is again being persevered with by A"o"B, BIG if, but he might be the possible shock winner.

4:25 - Thunder Strike,Stubbs,Sir John Hawkins,War Command,Mawfoor & Championship are on my likely winners short list.
fingers crossed the field stays at 16 runners - Thunder Strike - 10/1 1point e/w bog

5:00 - Big Easy,Homeric,Midnight Oil & Well Sharp make my short list - 1point win bog on - Big Easy @ 9/1 & 1point win Homeric @ 12/1

5:35 - Anticipated,Ben Hall,Ogermeister,Steventon Star,Fountain Of Youth & Sleeper King in a tricky race which i"ll just watch.

Mango Diva
Woodland Aria
Annecdote
Hint Of A Tint
Fleeting Smile
Zurigha
Bracing Breeze
Senafe

thats in order of preference, its a tricky handicap with quite a few with scope to improve especially the 3rd 4th and 5th on my list as far as i could work out, i priced it up pretty much as the market so i couldn"t find an angle...

i"ll cheer your horse on Achim, good luck fella...

Was a try. Senafe 34/1 long time in front but well beaten and far away from winning horses at the end.

Lancashire Oaks @Haydock 2.55
Moment In Time @7/2 [BOG] 3point win

won lto beating Ambivalent and Nymphea over course and distance, the German filly dictated the pace that day and considering Moment In Time was held up in mid div, she did very well to get by Nymphea from such a steady pace.
Ambivalent boosted this effort by winning the Curragh Pretty Polly next time out, so 7/2 is rather generous imho about a rapidly improving Filly who at the start of the season began off a official rating of 78. Now rated 107 having been raised 10lbs by the handicapper after Haydock, hopefully today she"ll prove to be even better than that mark as i rate her 112+ , Albasharah and Midnight Soprano will have to run career bests to finish ahead of her today, you have to respect John Gosden runners in this race but both seem priced up about right with neither quite fitting profile wise how i"d expect Gosden to have a strong chance.

Close friend, trainer and true horsemen passed away today after a battle against leukemia. So hopeful after a bone marrow donation but it"s a hell of disease.

Most succesful german horse trainer til his death today with 2069 victories. All time number 3 now behind legend Heinz Jentzsch and Bruno Schuetz. Uwe Stoltefuss, 3 times flat and 7 times hurdle champion trainer in germany passed away age 57.

Uwe, I"m so thankful to spend a lot of years as a owner at your stable, your friendly support at any time and fun in and offside the race course and friendship. I"ll miss you!

yep Swiss Spirit is well drawn for his hold up style, i"m just taking the view that the low draws will go to fast and i hope that Tickled Pink will be able to set better fractions from her high draw unimpeded as per Sandown and Newmarket earlier in the season when she made all.
I"ve been having a bit of fun trying to produce par (or optimum) finishing speeds for various tracks to establish whether a horse was finishing fast or slow, and using this to estimate how much faster they could have run, had they run optimally.
Allowing for lost ground when hampered is the tricky part to assess :) as at the moment i try to allow for bigger impacts at faster speeds to how i rate the horses..
Using this approach i got the Nunthorpe down to 6 possibles and Swiss Spirit was in there :) but William Buick"s timing skills put me off now [especially after Glorious Goodwood] its ironic that his best race on SS happened when he got badly hampered at Haydock which caused him to ride the horse a little less vigorous in the early stages.
Meh a fun race to analyse, whoever wins it should be bloody good fun watching them charge towards the finishing line Wayne, have a good day fella..

+148.8 points 17% wins

a poor Royal Ascot by my standards rather spoils the Saturday Donk picks and Goodwood had its fair share of unlucky in running excuses.
on the plus side the staking has been ok"ish and i have only picked horses in tv racing and saturday races, but in the main steering towards the tv racing.
as a target i wanted to hit 200 plus points for the flat season [tv and saturday racing only] hopefully fingers crossed i"ll get somewhere near with some tasty races at Newmarket, Ayr and Donny still to come.

@noble What are your favourites for Prix l"Arc de Triomphe?

Guess Orfevre, Kizuna, Novellist and Treve should be the horses in focus.

@noble What are your favourites for Prix l"Arc de Triomphe?

Guess Orfevre, Kizuna, Novellist and Treve should be the horses in focus.


its a shame Novellist has pulled out, as for Kizuna and Treve i"m put off by there draws.. Orfevre is a worthy favourite and of the possible dangers i"d side with the 3 year olds - Ruler Of The World,Flintshire,Leading Light and Intello..

i"ve already backed Ruler Of The World and Leading Light , push come to shove i prefer Leading Light of the two..

as a rule of thumb i either like to see a group1 run last time out as a good prep to the Arc or the horse has had a decent prep in the Prix Niel...
group1 last time out - Al Kazeem [loads to do drawn out in 18] , Treve [same again drawn 15] , Meandre [drawn 2 but not quite good enough at this level imo] and Leading Light [stamina not in question plus good draw]

Prix Niel last time out - Kizuna [only the draw puts me off] , Ruler Of The World [great prep run considering Moore switched twice and lost ground/momentum doing so] , Flintshire and Ocovango [Fabre say no more lol, interesting how Flintshire was ridden though]

good luck Achim if you back anything tomorrow, what sort of angle are you approaching this years Arc with fella?


as for today [i"d put up or sooner but i"ve had problems trying to log on plus 2 german sheperds i"ve recently acquired have kept me rather busy :)]

Kempton Nov. 27th

Race 5:  500 Free Bets At Betdaq Wild Flower Stakes

Only 7 horses in the field. One of them #3 german JEANIE JOHNSTON . Racing Post announced (20/1) what imo a huge underestimation. This race could be a good Dubai prep race for favourite #2 FATTSOTA (7/4). Can"t ignore the performance last february at Meydan behind Kassiano, also Longchamp last month. The horse to beat. Another horse for 1-2-3 is LIVIA"s Dream. Last time at Lingfield 2nd and today with weight advantage to 4th BANOFEE.

Good value for #3 so I"ll bet the german filly and hope for her speed last 2 furlongs.

My pick: JEANIE JOHNSTON - FATTSOTA - LIVIA"s DREAM

The flat season is nearly here plus Cheltenham and the Grand National also to look forward to, so its time to get warmed up and hopefully pick out some winners.

Lingfield 4.00 - 5f Handicap (Class 2)
Woolfall Sovereign - 2 points ew

WS has a good record when running in handicaps over 5 furlongs on the all weather - 11113
12/1 with most bookmakers this morning which in places has been snapped up, although you can still get 12"s with some... 10/1 is still ok if thats all you can get..
don"t be put off by his last time out run over 6 furlongs, he has ideal conditions today...

6.05 Dubai World Cup
Prince Bishop @12/1 [i really like his chances today, its a 5point bet for me, bet big @12/1 :)]

A group1 winner over 10f with Kieren Fallon riding who is 3 out of 3 on him plus he"s in the form of his life and drawn 1. He has never looked to get anywhere near to what ability he showed as a 3yo when with Fabre but for whatever reason [maybe the Fallon factor] all of a sudden in his last 2 races he"s trouncing decent rivals and making it look easy... A very generous 12/1 in general with maybe a little saver of 1 point on Military Attack...

good luck Achim + Wayne

Bad luck, Flotilla came from the back, made a great late run and so much ground. Thought could win it, very close.  :( 28/10 place.

Dubai, Meydan

Try some Win/Place bets today.

1. Dubai Kahayla Classic Gr.1 (Arabian) - Al Mamun Monlau
2. Godolphin Mile  - Gr.2 - Flotilla 9/1
3. Dubai Gold Cup Gr.2 - Seismos 22/1
4. UAE Derby Gr.2 - Giovanni Boldini 9/4
5. Al Quoz Sprint Gr.1 - Amber Sky 3/1
6. Dubai Golden Shaheen Gr.1 - Rich Tapestry 3/1
7. Dubai Duty Free Gr.1 -  The Fugue 10/3
8. Dubai Sheema Classic Gr.1 - Magician 11/4
9. Dubai World Cup Gr.1 - Akeed Mofeed 9/1


Flotilla went well achim, just not enough pace in the race for that finishing kick of hers, hope you had the place part. Variety Club from 15 got out brilliant and stacked them up before the home turn and kicked for home, a very good jockey performance.

Mine never got out of mid div, turned out gate speed was key, as per finish with not many changing position except for Flotilla.

Good spot with Gabrial"s Kaka    


he looked impressive Wayne :)  some say wait to see the other trials etc etc but if anything runs between now and the Guineas and runs better than Kingman then they"ll be in Frankel like territory imho....
Gosden does not want to risk him on fast ground, with that operation in mind for that bone chip removal. I think its turned into a blessing in disguise for him to revise the classic preparation for Kingman, i prefer the idea of a prep before the 2000g rather than turning up fresh, it didn"t do Frankel any harm.. :) You know what is impressive though, the fact Gosden always leaves a bit to work with his early season sighter"s, Kingman will improve, my gut tells me at this moment in time Towser junior won"t be bereft of classic potential horses this season...
So stationed at the end of Newmarket's Bury Road at Clarehaven is i hope the next 2000g winner, i hope so cos i got on at 5/1 way back lol lol... hmmmm lay a bit off now ;)

What did you think of Western Hymn"s run Wayne? at this stage i"d be more inclined to favour Western Hymn and Kingston Hill for the Derby.. Western Hymn"s inexperience wouldn"t bother me to much as 3yo types like him can improve rapidly, and that turn of foot still smacks of class... Should be a interesting Dante....

Sennockian Star won nicely Wednesday, i love picking apart the class2 heritage handicaps :) i was pleasantly surprised that no one latched on to the fact that he"d reverse the form with Clayton from the lto at Pontefract...

Sandown 3.50 - Gold Cup Chase
Hadrian"s Approach - 14/1 with WH and a couple of others.. 15.5 on Betfair 4.5 to be placed - 1point win 2point place on BF

reasoning/logic
Tricky race to pick apart but what swung it for me given conditions today was Hadrian"s Approach run at Newbury last year when only beaten a short head by Unioniste with Same Difference behind, HA made three mistakes in the straight at Newbury and was only beaten a short head and he had plenty left in the tank.
He has good stamina, he jumps, gallops and stays. He also has plenty of class being by High Chaparral and looks a good win-place bet imho. Sandown should suit him today, finished 5th in this race last year on good dround as a 6year old, had a break this year before Cheltenham which suggests to me that Henderson had this race as the initial target in mind....
The fitting of cheek pieces for the 2nd time might be a plus, focus in the later stages of a race can sometimes come at the cost of keenness in the early part when a horse is fitted with cheekpieces, it might make him a bit more alert in the early part of the race, but that"s no bad thing for this horse imho... I"d be surprised anyhows that Henderson hasn"t schooled him with them on,
this plus the fact i think NH has had this race in mind for HA was another tick in the box.. :)
Geraghty on board isn"t a negative either lol............

AoB looks to be trying to find where this horse will fit in with future plans, Century won on debut the same maiden as Magician who won this race last year. No hype surrounds this horse after a poor racing post run lto but Ryan Moore is booked who"s record 7/10 for AoB at Chester makes my mind up that a small win bet is worth it at 3/1. [plus if you watch his debut win in a slowly run affair, it rather takes the eye.]

4 have pulled out so far, so out of who"s left which horses like soft ground? i couldn"t find a angle tbh Balty Boys with 1st time cheekpieces at 10/1 looked mildly interesting, everything else price wise looked about right or to short.

2:45 - Ormonde Stakes
Hillstar is the likely winner. Brown Panther would of been a bigger threat if the rain had stayed away.

3.15 - 5f Handicap
See The Sun, Blithe Spirit and Fine n Dandy - the first 2 on form lto and FnD based on last years romp at this meeting last year but has he trained on? add to the mix the irish horse of Stacks and its enough for me to pass and watch.

the last 2 races a fillies maiden and a apprentice handicap, hmmmmm BIG SWERVE  ;D

Olympic Glory is def the horse to beat. Can"t believe that Verrezano will win this one. CHOPIN, our german contender, gave his debut in April and finished 2nd, winner unplaced in France May 1st. Good ground and in a better shape now should be more than a good fact to make a EW10/1 Valuebet. Sure that trainer won"t make a sightseeing tour to Newbury. ;)

Kingman in class of his own


Great horse. Trainer Gosden was a bit doubtful about ground and after there were rumours that he would scratch Kingman I
backed Shifting Power for 10/1.

Very disappointed about heavy rain at Haydock, first info was "Good" so I backed Gracia Directa. Make a note, if the filly will run 6f on good ground next time. Dislike soft or heavy ground.

Neatico is a interesting longshot in any combined bets today. (Longchamp, Prix d"Ispahan) when Cirrus Des Aigles clashes Olympic Glory.

Duesseldorf, German 1000 Guineas, a very competitive field. Ajaxana should be the horse to beat, runner up to Meerjungfrau and in front of 3rd Emerald Star (wins Gr.3 Lingfield). Couple of promising horses, especially Diamond Dove, like the 2yo performance, bit doubtful about good ground, soft would be better I guess. Artwork Genie, Ninas Terz and Feodora should be horses in any bets. But at the end maybe the english guest Evita Peron will annoy german connections.  ;D

7th June Epsom Derby

Austraila has a very good chance based on his prep in the 2000 Guineas, he wasn"t stopping and got within 3/4"s of length of winning the thing. New Approach and Sir Percy were the last two non winners of the 2000g to go on and win the Derby, NA got within a nose of winning and SP was 2nd behind George Washington, trailing by 2 and a half lengths. Camelot and Sea the Stars won both classics, this rather puts me off Kingston Hill"s chances today as he was 5 lengths back, recent reminders like Mars last year and Native Khan in 2011 after finishing 3rd behind Frankel in the 2000g put me off Kingston Hill.. Added to that, why didn"t they prep him over further like the last Racing Post winner to win the Derby, Motivator prepped in the Dante.. Even if the heavens open up and the ground gets soft i"d still fancy 3 or 4 to beat KH.
So of the other trials is there anything to take on Austraila realistically? The Derrinstown trial was ran so slow and 3 finished in a heap, Geoffrey Chaucer maybe open to more improvement than Fascinating Rock and Ebanoran but the way the race was ran puts me off there winning chances.
Arod"s 2nd in the Dante at first looked sub par until the Great Gatsby won the French Derby and Arod wasn"t slowing at the finish. True Story had no excuses imho and if he"s ground dependent then he might have a squeak if the rain stays away, but of the two i"d fancy Arod to finish ahead again today.
Orchestra ran well in the Chester Vase and may improve bundles whatever the ground and theres Western Hymn to consider after his slog in the mud in the Sandown classic trial..

Austraila @ 13/8  5point win
Orchestra @ 14/1  1point win
Western Hymn @ 16/1  1point win

Westen Hymn non-runner that explanes it, with that in mind i now like Snow Sky but the moneys already down on Eagle Top


i"m always reviewing and revising my own rules about betting and how i assess the race on the day... one rule i"ve learnt the hard way :) wayne is when i"m addressing whatever race, if the trainer has more than one runner and you fancy him[the trainer/horse] to win, you have to cover your main bet and back all his runners in that race.... i over looked my own rule in the buckingham today, David O"Meara had the two runners, needless to say i was a little apprehensive when i saw watchable making ground lol lol..... [this rule of mine applies in quality races, my view is that you should be betting quality horses in the pattern and in classes 1, 2 and 3 only mainly, class4 and above don"t be a mug reduce your stakes, those donkeys rarely repeat their good runs the next time, last time out winners at that class usually lose there next race yet time after time people still back them ::) in fact its not a bad way to approach lay betting ;)]
BTW Eagle Top, what a prospect that horse had gears aplenty, so Gosden has 1m covered with Kingman, 10f for Western Hymn and 12f with Eagle Top... and maybe [just maybe] it will be Marzocco who will be his St. Ledger hopeful...

and a 12/1 winner to boot :)  invest those winnings wisely ;)

Title: Re: Saturday Donkey

Sea The Moon top rated european horse now. (125)


what do you reckon to that Achim? Myself i find it hard to go along with when all the handicappers have in way of european collateral form is with the fifth, Wild Chief. Sea The Moon put up a great performance but in terms of giving a rating based on past german derbies i"d rate the winner at 121 with a ? for now, i have to make it the best Deutsches derby win by far with only Shirocco anywhere near... with a view to the forthcoming arc i"d also be wary of Sea The Moon"s habit of hanging left, i"m still unsure as to whether Soumillon deliberately went to the near side rail or the horse went that way and he went along with it so he"d keep momentum....

as for the football..
Germany 7 Brazil 1

Unsure is the rating ok or not. Guess it"s always very difficult to tax it especially if a horse destroyed a field like Sea The Moon did it in German Derby. Lucky Lion got 97,5kg after winning the German 2000 Guineas, Sea The Moon now got 102,5kg (winning by 11L). Another benchmark could be the races between The Grey Gatsby/Arod/Wild Chief/Australia.
Im not an expert in rating a horse, guess 125 could be correct, otherwise a horse like Australia wins two consiberable races and got 123. Nevertheless Sea The Moon has to confirm this rating next time. (Baden-Baden then Longchamp)

It was an decision from Soumillion to go near side rail because the ground seems to be in better shape after he make a walk around the racecourse. Another reason was that Soumillion was informed by regular jockey Andreas Helfenbein about behavior of the horse..

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xm4EC5vHQdQ#t=80

GER-BRA, what should I day? It was a win without any importance if they lose the final. Imo it was an unreal result, because the main danger was"nt the german team, it was the self-imposed pressure and helplessness to handle it. Like to see Argentina in final, guess it"s easier to play. No prob if Netherland will win the World Cup, they definitively deserve it too. Great football nation.

given ground conditions Slade Power won"t have no problems plus he"ll have Noozhoh Canarias to give him a tow from the high side of the draw..
a couple of savers were in order, Due Diligence is improving and there"s no indication from his action or the form book that he"ll be hindered by conditions... Astaire and jockey Neil Callan get on well with other and like lto at Ascot he will be leading the low drawn horses.. he needs cut in the ground so it won"t surprise me if he makes all to win plus his middle park win last year is a positive.. [just :)]
if they all converge and come down the centre then it"ll favour Slade Power all the more....

What a race the King George is going to be and a headache for me, 3 of my horses all in the same race, Telescope, Taghrooda and Eagle Top. Eagle Top did me a great favour in the last race and won with plenty in hand but how good was the race. Telescope, the rain yesterday won"t have helped but the ground will dry quickly. Taghrooda looks to have a edge on the rest although a very small edge. And through in Magician on top then we have a classic race in the making. With 8 runners it may be worth a small EW bet on Romsdal (i like Gosden  ;))

1.50 York Carnevale
3.50 Ascot, Taghrooda

Gregorian is out Wayne, the Lennox looks a good opportunity for Toormoor now with Garswood the chief danger, a sneeky ew punt might be Glory Awaits @14/1.... i"m surprised Achim hasn"t mentioned Amarillo yet, disappointed at Haydock but came good lto at Hamburg with Adrie de Vries on board again today.....

Post by: Chipaccrual on July 29, 2014, 12:54:57 PM
I"ve had a few years out from Goodwood. We moved just that little bit further away, so it made the membership less worthwhile, and it"s also clashed regularly with The New Forest Show.

I spent last night going back over my stats from 2005-2011 (Positive ROI 7 years in a row), have tried to fill in the gap of the past two years festivals.

Fingers crossed we can all pick a winner or two throughout the week. I"ve always picked one horse per race, every race.  I"m not great at knowing where the value is as such, but it"s all about the winners for me :)
Title: Re: Saturday Donkey
Post by: nosey-p on July 29, 2014, 13:16:24 PM
I don"t know why but I just don"t like Toormoor but at the same time don"t know what will beat him now Gregorian is out, I wont be betting in this race.

Nice to see Leigh back, I know how he likes Goodwood

Trying to keep the calendar balanced between shows with the charity, poker tournaments, family commitments, gardening, The Pokeriety website and, oh yeah, proper work :)

Spent yesterday on the show ground doing setup, got today and tomorrow with clients (with one eye on the racing), then working on the stand on Thursday before packing it all up again.  Hopefully can then put my feet up on Friday and Saturday and properly watch the racing.

Would have been better if Muteela had come through in the last.

Not sure about the last now.  Seems to have been a bit of a run on Fire Fighting, from 12-1 into 4-1.

Possibly one of those races whereby you just have to watch the market ?

the only surprise for me was Tall Ship not being gambled on, Fire Fighting was fairly exposed regarding ground preference and MJ isn"t really the type to disguise his horses by running them on the ground [edit- wrong type of ground] for that length of time...

http://www.racingpost.com/horses/result_home.sd?race_id=604248&r_date=2014-06-29&popup=yes#results_top_tabs=re_&results_bottom_tabs=ANALYSIS

have a peek at the above, Tall Ship was only 4l behind the winner 1st 2nd 3rd all won next time out, how did the market miss that??  they obviously thought having moved from Stoutes yard to Moores that it must of been a duffer? given his breeding and how lightly raced he was, the step up to 13f plus the formbook, why did so many not chance Tall Ship??
its lto run at Epsom wasn"t that bad either in terms of weight and speed ratings compared to what the field over 10f had achieved neither....

meh never watch the market with a view to back what they are backing Leigh, backing your own opinion is the way forward.. let the sheep do there thing and take advantage :)

reason for edit - my fingers weren"t keep pace with what i was thinking:)

Basically if the rain doesn"t come i fancy Seeking Magic and Ninjago and i"ll double the stake on them as well.. If the rain does come and its good to soft or worse then Intrinsic and Boomerang Bob my main fancies...

my shortlist for the Stewards Cup was -
Ninjago
Muthmir
Hallelujah
Alben Star
Boomerang Bob
Rex Imperator
Seeking Magic
Fairway To Heaven
Intrinsic

fingers crossed i"ve plumped for the right ones.... good luck today Achim,Leigh and Wayne [i hope you was on Wannabe Yours yesterday]

i"m going to do the first two handicaps of the day, but i"m going to wait to see what the weather brings...

It gets better, I also had Barnet Fair at 8/1 and Outback Traveller at 7/2 but then my mug betting kicked in and gave some of it back. Still up on the week which is grate after the last 2 days

having doubled the stake on Seeking Magic and Ninjago, the profit today was +19 points thanks to Double Bluff and Intrinsic..

so that makes the festival points total a grand total of +53.6 points

donkey fred total overall at +254.68 points


nice to see Wayne having a good day, don"t fritter those profits sir :)
Achim and Leigh a very well done, the ebor meeting is the next one to look forward to....

the best 2nd of the week for myself has to be Extortionist, having done some rough guesstimate maths on the ground he lost having angled across the track over a furlong from the 2f to the 1f point [and took into account Take Cover]
Extortionist gave TC 3 to 5 metres best guesstimates, don"t be surprised if they meet again that placings are reversed in similar conditions...
others to note from today for the future were Eastern Belle and Second Step....


You should put a website together and sell these tips  ;)

i wanted to put up a video with youtube but it doesn"t work? does it no longer work on APAT?

Just looked at the write ups from the Betting Emporium that Neil Channing does. (They release them on the site once the meet is over to everyone).  Their tips were 240pts down for the week. (I think I"ve read that correctly).

I think they were well up on their picks previously though, so just a bit of variance.   ;D

thanks for that Leigh, i"ve never seen that.... when i get time on my hands i"ll go through this fred from the start and see how it would of performed if i staked it like i do now... there are some humdingers tucked away from what i recall from memory - Homecoming Queen 1000 Guineas 33/1, Tiddliwinks in the Duke of York at 40/1 and it won at 25/1 and left a few scratching there heads afterwards, Rite of Passage in the Ascot Gold Cup at 20/1 and Moyenne Corniche 25/1 in the Ebor, Dirar in the Ebor the year before, theres a couple of Chester Cup winners in there i"m pretty sure plus there is Arctic Cosmos who won the Ledger who i kept on plugging in the fred before Ascot... wowser :)  and quite a few more...

thanks Achim i shall keep an eye out on those, i"ve always kept to UK, French and American racing but i should be looking to broaden my horizons to German racing as well in time...

a checklist for Wayne ;) for non muggie type bets...
the rules are fairly simple, although all the fundamental rules begin with never, one can break the odd rule when you gain more experience to know when to chance breaking the rule.. ;) [if that makes sense?]

1] Never back a horse unproven on the going.... [speaks for itself]

2] Never back a horse unsuited to a track... [best form over uphill tracks now tackles a sharp track like Chester for example]

3] Never back a horse ridden by a jockey with a poor track record... [Goodwood a great example this week]

4] Never back a horse whose trainer has a poor track record.... [you know this one already Wayne :) cough cough Epsom]

whether using these basic guidelines to whittle a race card down to its contenders OR using them with a view to laying a favourite for instance who"s unproven on the going, these simple rules will steer you clear of many a donk :) and hopefully set you or anyone else interested in horse racing on a profitable path...

and one final thought that all poker players understand deep down - Never bet beyond what you can afford and do not under any circumstance attempt to make or chase your fortune/profit all in one day... always remember it is all about the long run, and in capitals ITS ALL ABOUT THE LONG RUN.....

Observations from the Betting ring at Goodwood last week.

Punter had £3k each way on Sennockian Star in the 1st race. (14/1 winner.)
Same guy had Even £5k on the next fav. (got beat).
Was betting in hundreds by the end of the week!

On the last day a different punter had £25k on Barnet Fair. (7/1 winner from much bigger prices).

Think I"m going to have to bet a bit bigger myself in future!!

Tip for today.....Chevallier @ 5/1 each way. 2.40 Newbury.

Sommerabend runs well but needs a distance 1400+. 7th, 3L behind winner

Grosser Preis von Berlin

3yo Sirius wins. Another great victory for trainer Andreas Loewe, after Lucky Lion wins G1 Grosser Dallmyr-Preis weeks ago. Fantastic race and finish. Open your Heart always last. Huge perspiration before the race, wasn"t the horse I know.

fred total overall currently stands at +220.26 after 1 winner @8/1 and a couple of near misses...

there is some half decent racing at York today, so some reasonable bets have popped up...

York 7th September

2.30 12f Handicap
Cosmic Halo @7/1  1point ew [with Ladbrokes]
he won this race last year when a pound higher, Hanagan booked again gives the impression that he"s a solid ew chance..

3.00 Garrowby Stakes
Ladies Are Forever @11/2  1point win
Hallelujah @11/2  2point win
Mince set this race up last year for these two to finish 1-2, today it"s likely to be Justineo setting the pace and running out of puff in the last with my two picks hopefully blasting on by.... L.A.F loves York and HALLE ran well lto in the Stewards Cup..

Cosmic Halo won nicely having been quietly nibbled at into 5"s pre-race, Ladies Are Forever ran well to finish 2nd but the favourite Naadirr obliged at 2/1...
That left me with a +5.75 point profit for today...

Sea The Moon runs shortly at Baden-Baden, hopefully we"ll get a better idea of his Arc hopes..

Thanks, good luck to you 2! FLINTSHIRE seems to be an underestimated horse and odds are pretty interesting. Last race the jockey didnt demanded to much. Andre Fabre record trainer in this race and always good enough to bring a dark horse in top performance. So 330/10 are value I can"t resist. Place should pay also good money.

Don"t know, be happy or not. Place on Flintshire paid a lot, but to pick a longshot bet and beaten 2nd isnt perfect.  ;D
Saw late statement of C. Head-Mareek and decided to make last minute bet and hit the exacta with Treve and Flintshire 2192/10 with a buck. Amazing boost from TREVE, came out of the dark and nobody thought she will win again.

Post by: Zozzy on December 13, 2014, 11:59:30 AM
Cheltenham 3:45 - Osborne House Relkeel Hurdle(Grade 2) (1) 2m4f 110yds

Former Champion Hurdle winner Rock on Ruby heads the betting for this highly anticipated Grade 2 clash over hurdles which should turn out to be a proper staying test up the Cheltenham hill. The Harry Fry trained 9 year old was given a nice opener this season with a 3rd place finish behind Purple Bay, although he was destined for a well beat 4th if Irving had stayed on his feet. He should strip a lot fitter tomorrow and has to be respected but LAC FONTANA looks like serious value at 4/1 with Paddy Power. The Paul Nicholls trained 5 year old has to concede weight all round tomorrow, but he is a classy individual that loves it here at Cheltenham, a course where he has already notched up three victories from five runs.

Drop Out Joe is favourite at the moment but is coming off a 70 day break and to my eye his jumping is sketchy.
Streams Of Whiskey is coming off a 92 day break who"s a unexposed chaser but if you watch his Haydock win imo thats about his limit of ability in what was a weak race for the prize on offer.
Mon Parrain has claims but can he act as well around Donny as Cheltenham?
Super Duty might spring a surprise but i"d want 16/1+ to chance a small wager at that slim possibility.
The rest of the field you can pick holes in there form so i keep coming back to NIM and Aac.

Cheltenham Day One 2015 10th March

2.40 - Ultima Handicap Chase
Three horses have caught my eye - Annacotty, The Druids Nephew and Barrakilla.
The Druids Nephew heads the market narrowly from the sponsor owned ""its a plot"" Ned Stark :) TDN has a live chance if he reproduces anything like his run back in November at Cheltenham when he chased home Sam Winner.
Annacotty won at Cheltenham in the Freebets.com Handicap Chase back in January over 21f. He didn't look the likely winner jumping the last in second place plus he was forced to switch around the leader as he powered up the hill. I think the extra 4 furlongs will suit and the extra £50,000 he gets from Freebets if he wins at this years festival is a added incentive for the Keighley team to have him spot on to boost the owners bank balance.
Barrakilla is a powerfully built horse and a step up to this trip may bring plenty of improvement. He has to make the final cut though so if he"s still in come nearer the day my wallet will be opened up :)

The Druids Nephew @8/1  2point win
Annacotty @20/1  1point ew

Cheltenham Day Four 2015 13th March

3.20 - Gold Cup
Ok a look at the big one and for this i"ll just apply some simple logic. Won a grade 1 chase at Kempton, Cheltenham or Leopardstown. Any older than 10+ and your out, defending champions out, Silviniaco Conti is out [to short plus his course form] and sift through prize money won at those three courses.
That leaves Road To Riches, Carlingford Lough and Many Clouds. I"ll put a line through MC for now as i thought it was a sub-std Hennessy that he won although i might have a small saver if his odds on the day drift a tad.

Road To Riches @8/1  2point win [looks to of progressed a lot after a impressive Galway Plate win]

Cheltenham Day One 2015 10th March

2.40 - Ultima Handicap Chase
Three horses have caught my eye - Annacotty, The Druids Nephew and Barrakilla.
The Druids Nephew heads the market narrowly from the sponsor owned ""its a plot"" Ned Stark :) TDN has a live chance if he reproduces anything like his run back in November at Cheltenham when he chased home Sam Winner.
Annacotty won at Cheltenham in the Freebets.com Handicap Chase back in January over 21f. He didn't look the likely winner jumping the last in second place plus he was forced to switch around the leader as he powered up the hill. I think the extra 4 furlongs will suit and the extra £50,000 he gets from Freebets if he wins at this years festival is a added incentive for the Keighley team to have him spot on to boost the owners bank balance.
Barrakilla is a powerfully built horse and a step up to this trip may bring plenty of improvement. He has to make the final cut though so if he"s still in come nearer the day my wallet will be opened up :)

The Druids Nephew @8/1  2point win
Annacotty @20/1  1point ew




Barrakilla @12/1  2point win

Don"t fancy anything that much at the odds on offer, i"ll pass and watch.

2.05 - Arkle Trophy
One stick to beat the favourite with and that gives the bookies hope that Un De Sceaux gets beat is his lack of  experience of never having ran at Cheltenham. Also 16 of the last 17 Arkle winners have never fallen or unseated in a chase and Un De Sceaux is the only faller in a chase in this years line up. Now those two stats are enough for me to have a little nibble on Vibrato Valtat.

existing customer special offers for myself are a rarity.. but it is a person specific one and the odd dormant accounts that i have occasionally give me the odd offer or free bet in an attempt to kick start me in to using their services again.
if your account has been limited then u can forget free bets for existing customers :o

certainly not Wayne, get as many matched deposit or deposit top up bonuses with the online firms as u can to increase your war chest with that particular firm. There are various ways to disguise your success if u have it ;) top up the account with fresh funds on occasions and bet whole numbers, don"t place your bets within the same time frame everytime and stay logged in for while etc etc.. these and other ploys are ways to stay under the radar for long as possible.

my tip when going with whatever firm is to check out through the various forums what there customer services department is like. :) [having learnt through the odd bad experience over the years]

Road To Riches @10/1  2point win
Carlingford Lough @10/1  1point win

my simple logic for the Gold Cup - The horse has to have won a grade 1 chase at Kempton, Cheltenham or Leopardstown. Any older than 10+ and your out, defending ex-champions out, Silviniaco Conti is out [to short plus his course form] and sift through prize money/collateral form etc etc that they have won at those three courses.
That leaves -
Silviniaco Conti 9yo 114k 113k [2x King Georges at Kempton] skinny odds based on course form and he"s out

Lord Windermere 9yo 327k 85k [1x Gold Cup  1xRSA Chase] defending champ, in the Gold Cup's history only seven horses have won more than once since the  Gold Cup chase, as we now know it, was introduced in 1924.
They are - Easter Hero 1929/30 , Golden Miller 1932/33/34/35/36 , Cottage Rake 1948/49/50 , Arkle 1964/65/66 , L"Escargot 1970/71 , Best Mate 2002/03/04 , Kauto Star 2007/09 the only horse to ever regain the Gold Cup.
at this moment in time i"d have to be bonkers to think Lord Windermere is as good as that group, so based on him being the defending champ, he"s out

Bobs Worth 10yo 313k 75k [1x Gold Cup 1x Lexus] trying to regain the Gold Cup, ten years old and he"s out

Carlingford Lough 9yo 66k [1x Irish Hennessy Gold Cup] won lto McCoy riding a plus. Jodami and Imperial Call in 93 and 96 are the last two to have won both the GC and the Hen in the same year which isn"t a great record but in terms of the open nature to this years GC then it gives him a lively chance imho.

Road To Riches 8yo 75k [1x Lexus] 5 out of the last 9 Gold Cup winners have contested the Lexus Chase, since winning the Galway Plate he"s improved tons. He"s won two grade ones in softer than ideal conditions, he"s best on good ground imo which makes it the more impressive what he"s done this season.

Boston Bob is the only other grade one winner at Aintree and Punchestown but he"s ten years old, Cool Dawn back in 98 was the last 10yo to win. If the likes of Denman and Kauto Star failed to win the GC at 10yo+ then i"d think you"d be fairly safe putting a line through Bob :)

Of the rest - Coneygree after he won the Denman Chase at Newbury last month has been described by Phil Smith the head of handicapping as putting in the best performance at 3m by a novice since Gloria Victis. ? ? ? ? ? thats enough question marks ;D  Phil Smith goes on to rate Coneygree 5lbs better as a novice than what Denman did in the RSA in 07.
http://www.racingpost.com/horses/horse_home.sd?horse_id=764676#topHorseTabs=horse_race_record&bottomHorseTabs=horse_form
he beat Houblon Des Obeaux who is rated 161 over the sticks?? really?? i shall cut off my left testicle with blunt scissors if Coneygree is on par with Denman as a novice [please peruse http://www.racingpost.com/horses/horse_home.sd?horse_id=633710#topHorseTabs=horse_race_record&bottomHorseTabs=horse_form]

i won"t and don"t want to start on about Many Clouds and Djakadam and there current odds which are a joke..

good luck today everyone.

depends how u look at it Leigh, the Foxhunter Chase ran the same course/distance right after and On The Fringe recorded a time 17.3 seconds slower than Coneygree.

say we allow 4 lengths per second on going Soft, Good to Soft in Places, Soft or slower. That means Coneygree would of beaten On The Fringe by 69.2 lengths.
Silviniaco Conti would of finished 42 lengths in front of On The Fringe.

SC + CoG carried 4lbs less for 26.5 furlongs than OTF. [how much difference did it make? a good puzzle to ponder Leigh]

a furlong is 201.168 metres times 26.5 = 5330.952 metres    1 length is 2.45 metres

in terms of mph Coneygree ran his race at a avg of 29.6273mph , On The Fringe ran a avg of 28.4064mph

Coneygree would of finished 169.54 metres in front of On The Fringe

Good info.

Definitely wasn"t on the Coneygree, but had a fun and slightly profitable week, which was good.

Just didn"t feel like a memorable race to live up to the usual hype (perhaps overhype) and billing.

I suppose the same can be said of a lot of sporting events.  The media tries to whirl everyone up into a frenzy of anticipation and energy, commentates on it as if you are watching a once in a lifetime experience, then afterwards analyses how lucky you are to have witnessed said event.

Maybe I"m getting cynical in my old age ;)

Great tips and analysis as always noble1.  Would love to know how your week compares to say someone like The Betting Emporium, who will have charged for their information for the week.

The value is definitely on this thread me thinks :)

What are the betting angles today at Lingfield in the All Weather Championship Finals Day, take note of the official ratings because its at level weights but pay a bit attention particularly for lightly raced contenders saved up from their qualifiers? Perhaps the angle might be winners at two or three years old coming to this as three and four year olds who now may/should show improvement, some maybe markedly? Go with course form? Ignore wide drawn horses? Stick with exposed horses at the end of their autumn/winter AW season?
The layers mainly have most angles covered perhaps a little to much atm, so no big punts today is the way to go. Whatever happened to the art of aggressive laying? Give the skilled odds compilers some more autonomy, put up the red flags and accommodate the shrewdies bets. The focus from some bookmakers to hone in on easy revenue streams such as fixed odds betting terminals and online gaming is a joke, UK high street bookies, you are a bookmaker in name only. NUFF said, RANT over :-X


1.40 - Fillies and Mares
This was a class4 race posing as a class2 last year, the std is a bit better this year with 5 class2 winners - Queen Aggie, Khatiba, Lamar, Don"t Be and Maiden Approach. Fresles is the only class1 winner in the line up.
Lamar is out, to wide of a draw and behind Fresles over in France when finding trouble, RM booked hence the price.
Queen Aggie is out, cls2 win over 6f out of class depth today.
Khatiba with no prep, 126 day lay off, never raced around Lingfield - out
Maiden Approach a sudden drop in trip needs to bring about a lot improvement - out
others to note - History Book - out on price

i thought the last race today was tight, Call The Cops headed by Taglietelle. I hope you backed this as well Wayne? Master Malt nearly stayed on to cause a shock.

Not found anything strong for tomorrow, i"ll post early morning after a good night of snooker :)

I hope everyone did ok today, onwards bound for Saturday for the big"un, how quick will the ground get? i"m on ante-post Rocky Creek and Al Co who to my eye will appreciate it.. I have another 4 in mind but i"ll wait till closer the day to try and get a handle for the ground conditions.

+6 points profit today leaves the fred total currently overall at +288.71 points

Title: Re: Saturday Donkey
Post by: noble1 on April 15, 2015, 12:14:50 PM
Lots of good racing today, although i"m not to sure we"ll see any superstars. John Gosden runs three interesting sorts today,
Faydhan in the Free Handicap, Lady Correspondent in the Nell Gywn and Golden Horn in the Feilden Stakes.
In order then my thoughts on the three -
Faydhan - a Guineas colt? an unusual prep for the Guineas. Fannan who should reappear in the Greenham to my eye looks his main hope for the 2000g. Granted in his only run to date Faydhan beat a future Acomb winner Dutch Connection by 6 lengths but breeding wise his pedigree has a heck of lot speed and not much stamina. Currently 4/11 , 2/5 ish for todays race i"ll chance his stamina doubts [imho :)] and take him on with Jungle Cat, who has to step up but the current odds compensate for that.

Lady Correspondent - just the one career run, reportedly working well on the gallops, Moore booked to ride. Best watched for now imo but at Newbury Saturday keep a eye out for Jellicle Ball in the Fred Darling.

Golden Horn - just the one run towards the end of the season beating a nice Haggas runner - Storm the Stars, the two pulling 7 lengths away from the 3rd. GH has a Dante entry and at 2/1 ish wouldn"t be a bad bet today likewise Storm the Stars in the second last race today currently 15/8 ish. That will disappear rapidly if Golden Horn wins prior :)


In the last race of the day Luca Cumani runs Spiriting which is the current favourite thanks to Timeform who rate him 95"ish based on his Yarmouth run 2nd time out. The BHA differ in that view giving him a h/c mark of 79. Luca thinks he"s been underestimated but the market has took no chances..

back to the 3.25 i"ve had a small place bet on the filly Vesnina @4/1, up against it with the colts but her form took a boost with the Nell Gywnn 2nd New Providence and it wouldn"t surprise me to see her stay for a place today.

Sandown 3.50 - Gold Cup Chase
Hadrian"s Approach - 14/1 with WH and a couple of others.. 15.5 on Betfair 4.5 to be placed - 1point win 2point place on BF

reasoning/logic
Tricky race to pick apart but what swung it for me given conditions today was Hadrian"s Approach run at Newbury last year when only beaten a short head by Unioniste with Same Difference behind, HA made three mistakes in the straight at Newbury and was only beaten a short head and he had plenty left in the tank.
He has good stamina, he jumps, gallops and stays. He also has plenty of class being by High Chaparral and looks a good win-place bet imho. Sandown should suit him today, finished 5th in this race last year on good dround as a 6year old, had a break this year before Cheltenham which suggests to me that Henderson had this race as the initial target in mind....
The fitting of cheek pieces for the 2nd time might be a plus, focus in the later stages of a race can sometimes come at the cost of keenness in the early part when a horse is fitted with cheekpieces, it might make him a bit more alert in the early part of the race, but that"s no bad thing for this horse imho... I"d be surprised anyhows that Henderson hasn"t schooled him with them on,
this plus the fact i think NH has had this race in mind for HA was another tick in the box.. :)
Geraghty on board isn"t a negative either lol............

3.50 - Gold Cup Chase
Royale Knight @20/1  2point win

Bally Legend @25/1  1point win
Unioniste @14/1  1point win


Unioniste because of the above, i"d fancy more if a few lbs lower in the h/c...
Bally Legend - weight carrying wise gives him a better chance than last year, has a squeak odds a tad to big imo.
Rocky Creek - some where near his betbright chase run at kempton gives him a good chance.
Royale Knight - good run lto in the national, trainer underestimated, 20/1 rather good odds.

Lucida - 2nd in the Moyglare behind Cursary Glance, Bolger then won the Rockfel with Lucida likewise a few years back with Finsceal Beo, he knows his onions, 6/1 to big imho.
Terror - never raced beyond 6f but her pedigree on the dam"s sire side gives some hope [Redback/Mark of Esteem] more so than Tiggy Wiggy [the other Kodiac] Watched the vids and if tuned up i can"t see any reason as to why 1 mile would not be beyond her.
Osaila - if you like Lucida then Osaila has to enter calculations based on the Moyglare plus lto in the Nell Gywnn when Hannon stated she wasn"t fully wound up.

plus all three have experience of the Rowley which is a bonus :)

Chester 6th May
2.40 - Cheshire Oaks
Victoria Pollard @15/2  1point win
Zamoura @10/1  1point win


I want to take on Diamondsandrubies who is way to short. Victoria Pollard lto at Newbury was ok given the slow early pace in a maiden that over the years has produced the odd good horse :) Eswarah 2005 and Dancing Rain 2011 went on to win the Oaks. Islington in 02 was to win 4 group1"s in her career subsequently after winning the 10f Newbury maiden. Its a race i "ve always looked out for, Eswarah and Dancing Rain prepped next in the Swettenham Fillies Trial Stakes so its strange i think that Balding has chosen the Cheshire Oaks, maybe he feels its weak enough for VP to pick up some black type. She dossed when hitting the front at Newbury, at 15/2+ i think its ok to chance she will improve on that maiden win.
Also on that day Gosden ran Star Of Seville who won cosily in the same race in which Western Hymn won the year before going on to better things. Gosden mentioned bringing SOS back to Newbury for the Swettenham trial then, maybe a swerve from Balding which maybe a pointer to the regard he has for SOS"s Epsom Oaks chances?

cos sometimes he can be a tad slow out of the gate, gets away with it over 6f, won"t today if that happens.
never raced over 5f.

Not a good week for me at York


Horror show for me to Wayne, then tonight at Hamilton i nearly go through the card the only losing race being the 8o"clock.
That has gave me a boost :) i love soft ground conditions, Alan Berry and Dalgleish.

Onwards and upwards though, the fred total overall currently stands at +247.71 points.
I"ve hit Night Of Thunder as hard as i can on the exchanges taking plenty of the 4"s available, if you can still get 3.7+ then don"t go to a bookie.
Of the others in the Lockinge tomorrow i"ve had some little pecks at Integral,Tullius,Custom Cut and Toormore.
For the donk fred i"ve gone for just the one big main and one saver -

Newbury 16th May [been described as good going, i think not]
3.45 - Lockinge Stakes
Night Of Thunder @5/2  5point win [go on exchanges to get more if you fancy this one to]
Toormore @8/1  1point win

N.O.T is the only true group1 performer in the field, say no more imho. Reminds me of Farhh who had some scraps [as Hannon would put it for NOT] with Frankel and got over looked really at a opening price of 5/1 which only got nibbled into eventually at 100/30 and hosed up beating the 5/4 fav Declaration Of War. NOT not as over looked but with Kingman out of the way, i"d expect Thunder to clean up this season over a mile.

Time to spare before the Fa Cup today, so i"ll whizz through the tv racing today.

York 1.45 7f hc
O"Meara won this last year and he"s throwing 5 darts at it this year and out of those Alejandro 2/2 over 7f at York is a contender. Add the O"Meara 6yo improver Al Khan into the mix, moved from Ollie Pears yard and Do"M has improved his mark 14lbs, you can"t discount him.
Of the rest Highland Colori has a decent ew chance based on his last run plus a handy 5lbs claimed off by Kieran Shoemark won"t do him any harm.
Alfred Hutchinson will be thereabouts as will Majestic Moon,Dusky Queen and Rene Mathis.
At the prices if i were to have a punt i"d side with Alejandro 12/1 and Highland Colori 12/1.....................

Haydock 2.00 Pinnacle Stakes
Good luck if you are trying to make sense of a mares and fillies race :) a couple that might be slightly under rated in the market are Miss Marjurie and Lady Tiana.

York 2.20 Listed 1m6f
The winner will come from these 3 imho - Clever Cookie,Big Orange or Elidor

Haydock 2.35 The John of Gaunt Stakes
My picks are in previous post. Basically what swung it for me was course form hence Breton Rock.

Newmarket 2.45 Fairway Stakes
Peacock is to short imo.. Tannaaf and Snoano based on there runs behind Cape Clear Island have a decent shout at the odds...

York 2.55 Spring Sprint hc
The unexposed Green Door appeals at 12/1 after a decent lto behind Robot Boy, now on his 3rd start should be wound up for today.
Kimberella at 25/1 could cause a upset and Red Baron has a favourites chance, 8/1 is ok... Bogart is the other that made my list of contenders....

Haydock 3.10 Achilles Stakes
My pick for this would be ground dependent, if its good then Music Master and Out Do should battle it out. If the ground still has a bit of juice in it then Musical Comedy and Intibaah might pinch it from the top 2 in the market.

Newmarket 3.20 12f hc
Dashing Star each way has a squeak at the prices, others that may cause Penhill problems might be Modernism and Watersmeet.........

Haydock 3.45 Sandy Lane Stakes
Limato is the obvious, any cut in the ground brings Mattmu and Toocoolforschool into the frame.
Title: Re: Saturday Donkey
Post by: noble1 on May 31, 2015, 13:56:44 PM
the fred total overall currently stands at +267.46 points.

Cable Bay won yesterday at 5/1 sp not the result i"d liked but judging how the horses were going to act on the ground was a head scratcher :)
So today the quality racing is at Chantilly with the Prix du Jockey Club [French Derby] off at 2.45 and there are a couple i fancy that have beaten Medrano rather easily that stand out - Karaktar and Silverwave.

Chantilly 2.45 French Derby
Karaktar @3/1  5point win
Silverwave @13/2  2point win
New Bay @7/2  2point win [saver on stakes]

Fabre has been confident that New Bay will stay the extra 2.5 furlongs but i"m going to stick with proven 10f form today.

My Win/Place bets today: Epsom Derby: Rogue Runner 50/1 - Belmont Park, Manhattan Stakes: Magic Artist 13/1


good luck Achim, Rogue Runner is interesting as the trainer has to be respected for his record over the years. Mr Wohler knows his onions and Rogue Runner may well outrun his odds. Rogue has a nice dosage profile more in line for a potential Derby contender than Golden Horn. I find it puzzling how some pedigree experts question Golden Horn on his dosage profile having seen what Sea the Stars and Ouija Board did, bizarre dosage blinkers :)

Trainer woehler said: Rogue Runner didnt like the strong pace after the start and may be the special Epsom racecourse. winners were top class horses so all in all no chance for a better result.

Magic Artist late run didnt work out, close 5th but no chance to win.

Star Of Seville wins the Prix de Diane, i hope you was following Gosden today Wayne? It got over looked a tad due to her Epsom Oaks effort only nine days ago but the drop back to 10f was ideal today. A rare English win and a huge boost in form for the Musidora 2nd Together Forever.
Royal Ascot top jockey will be interesting this year, Ryan Moore has ruled the roost over the past few years but Frankie Dettori wouldn"t be a bad shout this year at the current odds with him riding some nice ones for Gosden this year.

Here"s a vid of Able Friend with his best performance in the HK Mile with the likes of Trade Storm and Captain Cat well and truly beaten. Bloody good fractions set in the last 2furlongs off a very strong pace gives AF a great shout today IF he takes to Ascot and a straight mile.

-8 points today day2 leaves the fred total overall currently at +273.71 points.

A rather unlucky day lol , 2nd and 3rd"s which could of been better given that little bit of luck in running. At least i"m hitting the cross bar, it"d be more frustrating if my selections were bringing up the rear.
The unluckiest trip has to go The Grey Gatsby though, Western Hymn normally hangs left which i suspect Spencer was expecting to happen AND what happens WH hangs right lol...
It doesn"t surprise me Botti was upset about how quickly the handlers gave up on Euro Charline, i"ve definitely seen them try harder with far more stubborn types. Integral was there to be taken on, in all now eight fillies to have carried a Group-1 penalty into this race have been beaten, including now Integral and Soviet Song. [there you go Mr Cunningham, a decent fact/stat to say rather than the nonsense you come out with ::)]
Day3 to look forward to with 2 tricky 3yo handicaps and the Gold Cup looking open. Day4+5 have the races i"m most looking forward to BUT i"ve now turned the volume off whenever Cunningham speaks about draws or form ;D

Day 3 June 18th

Royal Ascot
4.20 - Gold Cup
Forgotten Rules @11/4  6point win
Mizzou @11/2  3point win
Vent De Force @9/1  2point win

I"m looking at this given my strike rate over the years in this race, Rite of Passage included. Profit is the main aim, the only dangers imho are Trip to Paris and Kingfisher. The former because the ground and trip might bring about improvement and he hasn"t got to make a enormous leap in the ratings. The latter because you"ve got to respect O"Briens record in this race. Both have to reverse the form though with the top 3, so at the odds from a win perspective i"ll steer clear.

ty Wayne, todays races apart from the Gold Cup imo have a barrel load of variables to give the layers hope :) and which horse will that be at Carlisle?

Right on to the cavalry charge Britannia, i"m hoping Hanagan has chosen the wrong horse [thats if he had a choice] because i"m more drawn to Sahaafy who made mince meat of Angel Vision at Newmarket lto. Collateral form wise on a line through AV Sahaafy may still be nicely weighted if go by Hundi"s performance in the Sandringham [surprise surprise trained by Hills]
Another in the Britannia that might go ok at the odds is Bow And Arrow, not the greatest draw in one but Doyle has swapped horses with Buick [work that one out :)] Bow And Arrow has a squeak if he reproduces his Beverley form when he beat Gerry The Glover plus it had Enlace out of its comfort zone pace wise.

This is the second tip I have had for Hootenanny. I haven"t bet on the geegees for a while. It is 100/30 best price with Paddy Power. Must be worth a couple of quid with the best jockey on board.

its a ok bet, its not home and hosed but it has its ideal conditions and a good jockey aboard :)  5/1 was available last evening, quickly clipped into 9/2 and steadily since has contracted. The bookies are mirroring the exchanges so either option to back Hootenanny [exchange or street] is ok, after 5% commission will pay the same.

2.35 - 6f Handicap
Major Jack and Arctic Feeling are the two i"ve backed one drawn low and one high.. The top 2 currently heading the market look opposable imo.. Bushcraft looks good round a turn but different conditions today on a straight 6f in the biggest field of runners he has faced. Tanzeel making his seasonal debut and entered in the Bunbury Cup may not be fully wound up today.
MJ + AF are 9/1 and 25/1 with the bookmakers atm...

3.10 - 7f Handicap
Baraweez and Zarwaan have a good chance, Ellison has booked Silvestre De Sousa his go to man when he fancies his horse [Colm O"Donoghue the usual jock is riding in the Irish Derby]
Zarwaan has the best recent form on offer after finishing 4 and a half lengths behind Speculative Bid, although a entry into the Bunbury Cup is a tad off putting.

Steve Prescott @25/1  1point ew

going with the best form shown so far - MM efforts behind Twilight Son give him a great chance, Moore booked [edit was booked:)], should be 5/1 the field imho.
SP is far to big of a price  his run behind Captain Colby was a great effort as CC set a ferocious pace and with the field strung out at halfway SP was the only horse who could get near Colby to put up a challenge in the last furlong.
Both picks have decent course form :)
BTW - keep an eye out for Captain Colby especially if Ryan enters him in the Nunthorpe, one to follow imo as he"ll only get better with time.

out of the other races at Newmarket today -

in the 2.40 Duchess of Cambridge nothing appealed to me odds wise, thought about laying Easton Angel :) the Albany and the Queen Mary are a good pointer generally for this race so if forced to bet i"d side with Illuminate. Each way Kurland and Blue Bayou could cause a surprise [both to big odds wise imo] but for the fred today i"ve concentrated my attention to the televised handicaps.
the 3.15 Falmouth Stakes Lucida looks the likely winner given her 1000 Guineas and Coronation form, of the French challengers i"d prefer Fintry. Upset wise Euro Charline has a squeak and at the odds wouldn"t be the worst punt in the world.

non ch4 races later on Mr Win,Buckstay and Accession are my punts for the Silver Bunbury Cup at 4.55....
Title: Re: Saturday Donkey

Magical Memory ran to form, Muffri"ha got out of her pocket but found one to good on the day and all 3 punts in the Silver Bunbury Cup decided to finish 1,2,3...
The Bunbury Cup is the target race tomorrow, i"ll post up later tonight...

Snow Sky is the one to beat imho and Eagle Top is far to short given he"s untested in the ground, Pivotal yes but not all take to soft conditions.

good luck Wayne, today although tricky mainly because of the ground question it does make it a good day to punt. plenty of variables equals punters paradise imho :)
the last thing any punter needs is predictable racing, we don"t want it to easy for the layers to price up the racing :o

so a big thank you to Seamus COC at Goodwood, your going descriptions are legendary :)  last year good going before the first, good to firm straight after the race finished [on the fast side of GtF] #goingstick?????

Good luck today Wayne, there is some very competitive racing today and the layers will be hoping to get a few favourites beat today. The Nassau in particular looks very tight, John Gosden races three today hoping to extend his recent good record in this race. All three have chances, Star Of Seville on her Musidora and Prix Diane is the obvious. The other two have good squeaks, Jazzi Top will improve for the drop back and with Buick riding at 16/1 makes each way appeal. Bright Approach has only had three starts in her interrupted career, on debut at Newbury she made good headway two from home before showing a smart turn of foot to lead inside the final furlong and win eased down by 1.5 lengths from Be My Gal. The runner-up went on to score in Listed and Group3 company, and the fourth home Marsh Daisy went on to win twice, the Height of Fashion Stakes included. Talmada came 3rd and has never really fulfilled her ability although she has bumped into the odd good one :) Covert Love at Newcastle being the latest example. At 50/1 and Hughes booked, Bright Approach this once 5/1 shot for the Ribblesdale wouldn"t be the worst each way punt. Back to Covert Love and the tie in with Talmada gives O"Briens Wedding Vow a half decent shout at 10/1.
I haven"t put them up in the Fred but 3 decent each way shouts imho - Bright Approach @50/1  Jazzi Top @16/1 and Wedding Vow @10/1.

good luck all..

i"ve done a review of the fred since april 2013 [when i started to stake by points] to see how its doing in ROI terms - [counted up the points staked since april 2013 page by page :"( and it was 1566 points staked for +334.33 points profit]

334.33/1566 = +21.34%


i"ve copied all the posts and i"m going to review over time the 1000 or so bets :o and try to up the ROI..

from my own personal records in my daily betting i know which types of races and distances etc where my better strike rates and ROI"s are..
i just have to figure out how i can apply it to the donk fred within the staking strategy and the tv/festival races i stick to in the fred..

win some lose some, sometimes the odd horrendous losing streak in the fred :(  but that"s what is so great, the battle is the enjoyable part and hopefully still turn a profit LONG TERM.. if not then review and learn, move on :)

After reading your last post my initial thoughts are;
1. Don"t worry about your % profit-it"s already excellent.
2. Whatever your stake per point is you must increase it.
3. Open other accounts with as many bookmakers as possible in order to obtain the best odds
& be able to get your bets on when they start closing your accounts.
4. I must start betting on your selections & not just reading after time!
Good luck & keep up the good studying. Personally I tend to keep to maidens/2 year olds (less form!)

well done Wayne, i hope your making a profit :)
i steered clear of yesterdays racing but on Wednesday i had a rare bet in the nursery. I"d been at Newmarket when Show Legend ran 2nd behind Experto Crede and carrying 14lbs less in the nursery i drip fed as much as i could on the exchanges.
KERCHING i love it when i pull one out of the hat like that :)

today a rather handy drift to 7/1 for Curbyourenthusiasm leaves the fred in profit by +9points, overall +351.63 points.

tomorrow i"ll leave late to see if the rain comes, the Portland is my main focus/target race plus the 7f122y h/c at Chester looks an ok betting race for me.

good luck with Shore Step and Tashweeq in your last 2 betting races today Wayne.  Shore Step looks solid, i was nearly tempted with Love Island but decided to swerve.

Three Group 1 wins today for german horses were are really good day for our racing scene.
Nightflower/Cologne
Red Dubawi/Milan
Kazzio/Meran (hurdle)


For those that may not know The Gran Premio Merano is worth a massive 250,000 Euros held in Italy. It is a group1 Steeplechase and the most valuable/biggest jumps race in Italy.
Willie Mullins had sent over Perfect Gentlemen with Ruby riding, Kazzio the sole german representative won quite nicely having previously shown good form winning 3 Seejagdrennen lake steeplechases and finishing 2nd in the the Grand Steeplechase de Flanders at Waregem in Belgium.

Nightflower is a Dylan Thomas filly who has been second in both the German Oaks and Grosser Preis von Baden this year trained by the excellent Peter Schiergen. She won the group1 Preis von Europa in Cologne beating a decent field.

Red Dubawi trained by Erika Mader came from last place to win the Premio Vittorio di Capua.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SxIxykjo49I - RIP Perfect Gentlemen who sadly died in the race when jumping into the back of a horse and when on the ground it looks like the back marker runs over him giving him a knock which sadly killed him.

Annacotty ran well 16/1 readily available minutes before the off.
I"m not counting these towards the fred total. The Greatwood is the hc I"m having a bash at today, there are two I like -
Devilment and Totalize

Triumph form and a 2nd to Lac Fontana.
Dev is better hc"d than what connections perceive imho.
Tot will love the ground and that 2nd equals chicken dinner.

1.50 CAVIAR GOLD CUP Handicap Chase
For this race I have plumped for good recent form to split my shortlist.
That left me with -
Tenor Nivernais who won nicely lto at Ascot.
Annacotty - won lto and still hc"d imho to produce back to back wins.
Little Jon - his form ties in with the above.
10/1  8/1  8/1  readily available for the three and I"ve backed all three plus layed Mozoltov.

Buywise got discounted for his jumping.
Sound Investment cut due to ground.
Johns Spirit cut due to form and a uninspired jockey booking from Jonjo.
Champagne West cut because of no recent run.
Title: Re: Saturday Donkey
Post by: noble1 on January 30, 2016, 13:07:43 PM
there"s some good racing at Cheltenham today but I"ll swerve the temptation and wait until the festival.

the 2.25 looked the best betting race and Tenor Nivernais  at 6/1 ew wouldn"t be the worst bet ever.
as for Johns Spirit I can"t work out what"s happening jockey wise and at 12/1 and  on a good racing weight  compared to the field was nearly a tempting small win bet.


edit - and at Donny in the 3.15 skybet chase Holywell under top weight cannot be discounted plus Ziga Boy warranted a 2nd look on his cd win.

still Vautour and Thistlecrack will be fond memories for me and Cue Card getting up after the fall which put my loss into perspective.

Crap crap crap day today, decided to lay Zubayr in the JCB Triumph hurdle, whilst drinking my coffee (big mistake in running) but smarkets appeared to move the selections coz all of a sudden a horse I had backed originally,- Ivanovich gorbatov became the welcome recipient,my green suddenly became very red  :"( :"(

still Vautour and Thistlecrack will be fond memories for me and Cue Card getting up after the fall which put my loss into perspective.

See anyone at Aspers tomorrow if going

Be Lucky


lol same here Pables, not the best from a back perspective but made up for it with some good lays. Thistlecrack was a big dent though, Sprinter Sacre is my favourite moment of the festival.  The bookies got away with some huge overrounds,  no one in the media really pointed that out (disappointing)..
The flat season isn"t far away and the Grand National to look forward to now.

off to a win for the flat season, the first of many imho  :)

the bookies squeezing the sp"s before the off in the Lincoln.
so next week in the national take a price if your backing anything 25/1 and below.
if you fancy a biggish to big outsider back on the exchanges as close as you dare to the off. (win bets)

2nd round did it for Rose, he had a great 4th round uintill the 17th and 18th. You always get a run for your money with Rose.

Was about to go to bed when he had his meltdown on the 12th. He had not been playing well all week apart from his putting. His tee to green was one of the worst but is chip and putting ranked 1st. He did well to recove in the final 6 holes and not to plumbit down the leader board.

Happy for Willett, he played at the golf coures i ust to play at in Rotherham.

So the Captain got through the first round and the crucible curse struck again for the first time champions.
Ali can hopefully keep showing those battling qualities all the way to the final.

not a race I want to bet in, but the two obvious interests imo are Darshini and American Artist.

2.40 Huxley Stakes
again its a betting swerve. Western Hymn is the one to beat, a case can be made for most the field to win if the favourite fails.

3.10 Chester Vase
US Army Ranger most likely in what really should be called is the O"Brien benefit Vase.

3.45 3yo hc
bloody marvelous lol not the best of races. Ode to Evening at 8/1+ ew might be of betting interest.

Title: Re: Saturday Donkey
Post by: noble1 on May 14, 2016, 12:45:36 PM

Lamato but missed the best prices 9/2


Regards Limato I can"t think of to many four year olds winning a Lockinge having mainly campaigned as a sprinter at three years old. Plus he"s never raced over a mile and he"s running with no prep, big ask/training miracle required imo for Mr Candy to win with Limato today.
Other contenders -
Kodi Bear has won a group2 mile but on a sharp track and bombed out at Ascot nto at his maiden attempt of a group 1. First time out today I"m willing to take him on.
Endless Drama was second in a poor Irish Guineas half a length ahead of Ivawood, I"ll take him on.
Belardo is a 7f horse imo who"s rather overrated by the official handicapper for his proximity to Solow. Added to that James Doyle jumps ship to Toormore after Sandown lto.
Dutch Connection 2nd in the Prix Jean Prat with Kodi Bear well beat but has been beat by Toormore over 7 and 8f has a fighting chance with Buick in the saddlle.
Mahsoob to short odds wise and surely to sharp distance wise.
Gm Hopkins is out of his depth.
Arod third last year may not improve on that given the ground being on the soft side of good, tempting each way poke though.
Euro Charline has a good jockey aboard and a sex allowance but I"d be doubtful of her relishing the slower ground conditions to Meydan.

Toormore for me, decent group 1 form, 2nd last year from a wide stall having to come across forfeiting ground to Night of Thunder. Plus this years four year olds need to improve significantly imo. All in all reliable in form trainer with a good record in this race, consistent horse with a good jockey.

Good luck today Wayne and anyone else having a punt today.

15th May Deauville
3.20 Poule D"essai Poulains (French 2000 Guineas
Zarak @3/1  4point win
Zelzal @5/1  2point win

in the fillies 1000 guineas Besharah with Christophe Soumillon riding has a squeak, but with no 8f form to speak of I"ll pass over. The rest of the field look priced up about right.
Alice Springs gets a tentative vote even though the French have had a lock on this race in recent years.
Negatives on some of the leading contenders - Come Alive has to overcome inexperience, Qemah has only done best when tackling a bend.
Jean-Claude Rouget will surely look to set up a strong pace with one of his three runners and fingers crossed a stamina test will suit Alice Springs.

The French 2000 Guineas hasn"t had a twice raced horse win for quite a while now. Hence why the odds seem quite generous about my two picks, but I"m going with what my stopwatch is telling me.

Roy Hodgson England manager.
The picture says it all, genius at work.
One could go on and on about his illustrious career but I won"t.
Instead I shall leave it to Liverpool fans who no doubt will laud and eulogise Roys many qualities.

each way with 16 runners isn"t a bad option or spread your win bets.

Think Kenrivash is a dark horse, impressive win at Munich, special Racecourse at Düsseldorf could be perfect for this horse to win wire to wire. Will see. Very competitive field of runners.

good luck Wayne, no Gosden picks? :-P

Generally I steer clear of reading tipping columns/blogs etc so as not to get influenced one way or another. Having gone through the card for day4 I decided to have a perusal of a few sites. Shock horror I come across a lot of value bet selections. Said tippers stating that there selections were far better than what there odds implied. Nothing anywhere in there well written bull plop articles as to what they thought the true odds of there value picks should be at all. Just a load of fudge (as I call it) to justify there thought processes. 
Value is just how often are you right in these particular races.  Essentially your strike rate, if over time in one mile class 2 handicaps at Ascot in large fields for example your strike rate is 11% picking one horse from the field, and you back nags at 7/1 or less you lose long term.
If the over round for backing each way is 105% don"t think there is value to be had if your strike rate is crap, you"ll lose long term, simples.
KNOW HOW OFTEN YOUR OPINIONS ARE CORRECT.
How on earth will you know or not that you are backing a horse at a shorter/longer price than you THINK it deserves to be?

Right that"s off my chest, moan over.  :)

I don"t normally follow tipsters, but my work mate does and he boast about this bet coming in that bet coming in @ 12/1, 16/1 ect ect, but ant the end of the week/month he has always lost and he says never again (but he does). After saying that the one guy I do keep an eye on is Andy Holding I"m not saying I bet on his selections but it"s good to see if I have backed a horse and he also tips it. Of course that does not mean it"s going to win but it gives me a bit more confidence.

MM has a lot going for him Wayne, just don"t go bezerk though. Plenty of competition all closely matched, I couldn"t split five of them so I gave it a reluctant swerve.
Exosphere at a general 2/1 is my 2nd biggest bet points wise this week following Profitable in the Kings Stand. Stouty late bloomer whos rating was whacked up 9lbs after beating Simple Verse. I rated him 123 for that race and he should improve for the season debut run. I"m trying to not get to excited as he reminds me of Harbinger in the way he travels. King George next on the agenda if all goes well today, fingers crossed and lucky pants on.

So I managed to get the 3.05 sorted but not much else.

1.55 - Rainbow Mist, Danielsflyer and Stormy Clouds look ok. The latter from a low draw may have the best advantage of the three.

2.30 - Fair Eva is the obvious and of the rest Nations Alexander looks to big in the market imo likewise Kilmah.

3.40 - hard to see the winner not coming from either Found or Seventh Heaven. Queen´s Trust might be the Stoutey fly in the ointment depending on how well you think Minding ran lto at Goodwood.

just some thoughts on the Ebor - Beckett booking Dettori is a big BIG positive for this improving Filly. If Beckett had run Moonrise Landing i"d been all over that to lol. Quest for More confirmed yesterday how good ML is, 7l clear those two back in May (check that form line out).
One Mr Balding runs Ballynanty who ties in formwise with ML and currently overlooked in the market wouldn"t be the worst each way bet especially if you got five places.
Heartbreak City trainer Tony Martin booked McNamara which swung it for me, ignore his 18/19f form, this drop to 14f is/should be ideal.
Others that headed my shortlist were Kinema and Shrewd but I passed on the basis I think conditions will be to quick for them.

Yet again the Ebor Festival did not leave many racing fans/purists disappointed from a racing point of view. Although there will be a fair share of punters with empty pockets/wallets who will no doubt disagree with me.

Right a quick round up of the four days of punting -
Day1 -9 points
Day2  -5points
Day3  +20 points
Day4  +12points

+18 points profit from 42 points bet in total.
Time to get my head back into the form book for September and October, still with a few juicy races to come, i"m hoping to unearth a little pearler  :O

Nameitwhatyoulike for me


don"t blame you one jot, the Ripon Wilfrid wasn"t a bad race and he won that rather cosily. Low draw maybe the place to be and of the others Growl has the best 7f form and a low draw.
Bit more faith is required for PV drawn high but ran well in this last year and 20/1 is fair enough to take a small punt imo.
Hoping Growl will drift a bit before the off 5/1 is ok but hopefully the market will think it"s to short and will pile into some others.

Harzand @13/2  1point win

Postponed is the obvious one to beat but at the odds I"d only consider him as a saver bet if were to back him.
Of the rest I just concentrated on 12f form or course form. Two stand out, New Bay who won the Prix du Jockey here last year beating Highland Reel. NB has only started twice over 12f , beaten Silverwave and a third in last years Arc behind Golden Horn.
Harzand a dual Derby winner has a good draw which I hope will suit his style of running.
So two decent horses trained by half decent trainers with not to shabby jockeys on board lol.
Three or four others appealed but there double figure draw put me off.

Throwing a few darts at the handicaps today.
Darna, Carrickboy and Holmwood Legend have been found in recent years chucking 3 or 4 darts so fingers crossed a big SP obliges today.
Others in the plate that caught my attention were - Cold March 40/1, Art Mauresque 25/1, Thomas Crapper 8/1 (to short), Tango De Juilley 20/1 and of course Starchitect 7/1 (Pipe Plot that everyone knows about lol)

In the Pertemps 2 that I crossed out reluctantly were Sutton Manor 25/1 and Golden Doyen 20/1.

Not much of interest price wise in the rest for my approach.
Good luck if you're having a punt today.

good luck chaps, Definitely Red has plenty of positives but imo two chinks in his armour are ground - unknown if he'll like quicker conditions.
Record in big fields over 3miles plus is 0/2 pulled up and fell.
I watched those back and my impressions were that he wasn't nimble enough. Which today if you factor in fallers etc his recent odds and the chance he gets a clear run then I passed him over.
BUT this is the National,  who knows?!!

Should be the favourite imo, runs well fresh, ground ideal and is the only UK Group one winner over a mile in the race field today.
Ribchester is far to short odds wise, Lightning Spear is to old (6 years and older I discard in G1 races over a mile) and has question marks regarding the ground. O'Brien runs the filly Somehow who'd have to improve significantly to win today and the rest of the field are out for a jolly lol.

Cliffs has the gears and campaign wise he was always the main Derby horse in the O'Brien team.
Crack seems the opposite to my eye, less gears but more stamina.

of a others -
Eminent lacks gears based on his 2000 guineas run and I question his stamina (on pedigree)
Permian can run a big race if my two fail to deliver but he's exposed now and I can't see him improving to much on what he's achieved lately.
Venice Beach was my biggest head scratcher but I finally discounted with the view he'll get better with a bit more experience.

Day4 Ascot - Donkey Guide

2.30
Alpha Centauri looks the obvious one but others caught my eye. Natural landed a gamble at Doncaster earlier in the month.
Natural made all the running there, easily drawing clear then being eased up to score by two lengths. The fifth from that race has won since, which is a positive pointer. Faster conditions today should bring about improvement as her action screamed it every time I replayed the video.
Noseda's Take Me With You caught my eye with him having entered her in the Phoenix Stakes.
Clemmie has been prepped for this in the typical dark arts way O'Brien does with a quiet maiden third. (just like her brother Churchill)

3.05
You have to put a line through Sir John Lavery who ran a absolute stinker lto at Lingfield. Glencadam Glory might be a good each way dabble, this son of Nathaniel might emulate his father, it wouldn't surprise me one jot if Gosden pulls another rabbit out of the hat.
Sticking with that line of form then Best Solution has to be in with a chance. Crystal Ocean has to go on the shortlist solely on Stoutes record in the race.

3.40
A Group1 winner beats a Group2 winner!!!
So easy peasy Caravaggio will beat Harry Angel.
Back the favourite amd a stakes saver on Godolphins newly purchased recruit?

4.20
It's difficult to overlook dual Guineas winner Winter but I wouldn't put anyone off Precieuse.
She sprang something of a surprise when winning at Deauville in the French 1000 Guineas. Having beaten Roly Poly, Sea Of Grace and Senga gives her a squeak imo. A small win bet that she'll be the third successive French winner of the Coronation Stakes maybe?

good luck all.

My GG stats used to be legendary (if I do say so myself) when I used to be a member there (2005-2009).  Since we've moved that little bit further away, dropped the membership and haven't kept up with the spreadsheet.

Did look into renewing last year, but never got round to it.  I still think it's fantastic value for money to be a member at Goodwood (beats most sporting season tickets for sure).

I might have to find some time to update the data and make some selections :)

lol i thought AOB would set up a strongly run race, but just in case it wasn't to turn out to plan then Harry would take advantage.
Hence a insurance bet lol, AOB and Moore won't be happy bunnies.
Apologies on the John Smith Cup, I was on Ballet but didn't put it up.
Great racing though, Enable doing the Oaks double was a brilliant moment as well.
High Wells - don't back him again Wayne untill they up him in trip :)

I had a nudge about High Wells (obviously not a good one)

I have had probably the worst weekend ever for betting, did not get 1 winner in gods knows how many bets. The one that sums up my weekend was the 3.15 at Stratord

I have decided that gambling is a mugs game and I am a big mug so that's it for me no more gambling.

beforehand given conditions I chanced it given the price of JH and Enable running on the softest ground she'd ever encountered.
Enable currently looks nailed on to win the Arc now, I haven't seen anything up to now that'd get near her.

Windsor
5.10
Lamya - nice instructive run first time out running on the far side (wrong side) behind a slightly more experienced stable mate Anna Nerium. Obvious pick but sometimes you have to go with the blindingly obvious :)

5.40
Conqueress - currently at double figure odds in a race with inconsistent sorts if eight go to post she'd be worth a little ew poke.

6.10
King Bolete - worth taking on Second Step purely on the pace angle/odds. KB might get a soft lead from  Across The Stars who has to many question marks to warrant a bet imo.

6.40
Chain Of Daisies - likely to lead and dictate equals wins the race like last year.

7.10
Field Of Vision - poor sprint, reluctant pick

7.40
Rock On Dandy - reluctant pick

I have decided that gambling is a mugs game and I am a big mug so that's it for me no more gambling.

Had a nice touch on Lord Glitters in the last race at Ascot today.  Was more than a bit worried when it was behind a wall of horses 2 furlongs out but it was switched to the outside and came through like a rocket.

Will try to remember to post the Kronsdat "cast iron plunger of the week" next Saturday.  :-)

Don't like anything today, Western Hymm has been a fav of mine so my go EW, Mutaaqeb in the first at Donny then Al Hajar in the next. Then see how the day go's but if the first 2 don't go in then probably will leave it at that.

Ok here is the Kronstdat cast iron plunger of the week: Nakeeta in the Melbourne Cup next Tuesday.  25/1 currently ante post, this Ebor winner has a cracking chance to be the first British horse to win this big event.  It might be worth waiting till the draw is made before slapping the money down.  Anything higher than 15 is severely disadvantaged in this race. 

(If it loses this tip was made by John Murray).

worth a punt Wayne, Churchill faces Gun Runner who I like for that one :-)
US Navy flag has a decent chance, Free Drop Billy and Firenze Fire should be thereabouts.
Ribchester - i've had a little punt on World Approval and Midnight Storm to win and place.
In the 12f Breeders Cup Turf i've backed Ulysses with a saver bet on Highland Reel.

not the best draw although still has place possibilities.
I like four lol so in order -
MARMELO - great prep race in Caulfield Cup coming home well finishing 6th and Bowman booked to ride and the draw doesn't put me off given his style of running.

ALMANDIN - won last year and the only slight negative is that Frankie rides (not at his best in australia imo but the horse might negate that lol)

WALL OF FIRE - had a second to Lord Fandango who then ran well in the CC, nicely weighted.

AMELIE'S STAR - ran well two starts back and flopped in the CC, good trainer and she is bred for this trip imo. My sort of dabble lol.

hi ya Achim, I hope all is well for you sir.

shame Ulysses is withdrawn so my only bet left is Highland Reel which won't win me much lol

keep the faith Wayne.

Unbelievable step from Joseph O'Brien on international focussed stage as a trainer.

Going to give todays racing a miss and save what i'd bet today for next weeks National.

For the Grand National I can't see much value in the class horses so i've focused on 3m4f+ form. Four out of a shortlist of 12 took my eye so I've had some ante post nibbles.

5.00 Saltonstall ew 10/1
      Afaak ew 14/1
 

tough race that one Wayne, the Irish plot romped it  :-)

21st June
Royal Ascot
5.00
Crack on Crack on @15/2  3point win
Simpson @33/1. 1point ew

sticking with my Silver Bowl pick and the eyecatcher I put in the thread..
low and middle draw and both have a turn of foot which isn't suited to Haydock in big fields. (positive in my book)
Crack on won with a bit in hand and Simpson met a wall of horses on the rail so hopefully on a straight mile one of them will burst through today.

I couldn't get on the site yesterday but I got 2 out of 3 winners.
Crack on Crack on came from behind again to win cosily. (i'll still follow Simpson from the Silver Bowl race as well)
i bet on Burnt Sugar in the international hc, after winning the Bunbury at Newmarket subject to a large gamble and only a pound higher, I found it rather bizarre the odds he went off at, thank you very much lol..

Cheltnham Day 1

The rain that has come is going to change things but these are my selections

1.30 Al Dancer
2.10 Glen Forsa
2.50 Coo Star Sivola, Mister Whitaker both EW (paying 6 places)
3.30 Apples Jade (been alot of support for Laurina) may have a revers tri cast Apples Jade, Buveur D'Air and Laurina
4.10 Benie Des Dieux
4.50 Good Man Pat EW (paying 6 places)

Look out for bookies offers Sky monyback as cash first race if lose, Betway money back (as a bet) 1st and last race, Paddy power money back (as a bet) if 2nd 3rd or 4th, plus loads of extra places with all bookies. I suspect that Coral WH Lad ect are doing promtions

Considering the weather forecast it's not easy today if substantially changes in conditions. A bit disappointed about soft ground today because I'd bet my NAP KIMARI days before for good odds. Looking forward and hope the best.  ;D

My betting forecast:

R1 The Queen Mary Stakes - #16 KIMARI
R2 The Queen's Vase - #6 JALMOUD
R3 The Prince Of Wales's Stakes - #4 WALDGEIST
R4 The Duke Of Cambridge Stakes - #17 VERACIOUS

well ascot is going awful for me at the mo, it's either lack of luck in running or just plain not good good enough on the day  :(
and the cherry on the cake, my ante post gold cup pick - Falcon Eight [back in thread 2nd June] who was pulled out earlier in the week. He had a horse behind him in the beg stakes finish 3rd today in the gold cup at 66/1 lol... Keep an eye out for Falcon Eight, a top notch stayer in the making.

torn between quite a few, plumped on these two above [Jaz - john smith form and needs a step up, PM - looked a different horse in a big field at ascot, hoping quicker conditions will suit] ...  Tamreer and Anythingtoday look interesting as each way punts as long as no one else pulls out.

2.25 Lonsdale Cup
Falcon Eight @11/1  1point ew

i was hoping weld would go for the ascot gold cup with this one after the beg stakes.. still learning and growing, if there is to be a shock then this boy will be the one to do it rather than dee ex bee.. the beg stakes form with Master Of Reality doing so well in the gold cup puts falcon eight in with a chance imo.
