 I'm at Sandown tomorrow so had to go through the card. Wouldn't normally.

1.50 - Secret Squirrel 11/1 ew. I backed this in a double with Getaway Glory 12/1 two days back. I couldn't tip GG in on here as stable wanted to keep it quiet. Good horse to have a share in though. Will be winning plenty more. SS  - It's ahead of it's mark. Been nibbled into favourite. I thought about Panjari and a few others, but given already backed it and in a solid double I'm good.


2.25 - Easy Game 11/2ew Townend and Easy Game in G2 and below are I think 7/7. Hitman probably best at weights/overall but not sure what's happened to his horse. Nicholls knows how to win this with horses like this, but will stick with Easy Game. Maybe I'll do a small Panjari/Hitman double.


3.00 - Nonsensical to bet in this. Maybe will hit an El Fab, Jonbon, Edwarstone tricast


3.35 - Enrilo 28/1 Aime Desjy 33/1, Amrite 8/1, Weveallbeencaught 12/1. Better stop here.


4.45 - Nickel Back 3/1 chucked in on Scilly Isle race over C&D


5.20 Sa Majeste 6/1 - Purely for the fact it's Mullins. It's be very fitting. It's like he has planned the headline already. 


Going to sleep shortly. Might post up more tomorrow morning before head out

Was a lot of risk being taken on with Acer and that's what you get :) It'll bolt up when learns the trade.

Epsom 2.10 - This is a tough one with 3 I'd give strong chances for. Out of the slight preference is for Mountain Peak 10/1ew. Managed to get on at 10's but when tried to put in an acca 1 min later cut to 15/2 :(

Will be ridden prominently which is important at Epsom. Don't think draw matters. Has won well fresh before. Have to ignore it's last run over C&D. One before went very close of a higher rating. Granted is getting older though.

Epsom 3.55 - Champangne Piaff 4/1

Bets 22/04/2024

 Obvs no decent racing but one 3yr handicap worth going for.

7.20 Windsor - Auric hasn't run on turf and being backed off the boards. Hugo going well, Oisin rides well here so probably wins. I don't like backing runners with a lengthy absence or a poor C&D run but I'm doing it anyway.

Acer 14/1ew. You have to draw a line under last C&D. Was all over the shot. Very keen. Went off at 14s so not fancied either. Last season other than it's debut was keen as fook every race. I'm banking on some it's early form over 5f here in Jun/Jul. If it does and has learned to focus will go close. Also, just to add to the risk factor needs to be fit and ready after a long absence :)

Bets 21/04/2024

 Not looked at races today but looked tough so glad only lost 3 races. Racing very average tomorrow.

Curragh 5.00 - A very wild pop on Un Bacion Ancora 50/1ew. Runs pretty well over C&D on soft. May have regressed though. At 50/1 willing to find out

Friday 19 April 2024

Bets 20/04/2024

Decent 40/1 winner yday. Few bets only tomorrow. So much racing but no time to look so stuck to big handicaps :)

3.15 Newbury - Navagio 10/1ew. Backed this lto 22/1ew. Was totally missed in the market and should have won. What a crap ride from Kingscote. This is a harder race so not as confident, but is definitely well handicapped.

3.35 Ayr - Elvis Mail 50/1ew

5.00 Newbury - Galileo's Compass 10/1ew

Thursday 18 April 2024

Bets 19/04/2024

Decent 12/1 winner. Thought Misty Grey could have won with a more prominent ride.

Bath 5.15 - Not sure why taking on Bated Breath as really shouldn't but put a few coins on Outer Edge 40/1ew and Sub Thirteen 40/1ew


Wednesday 17 April 2024

Bets 18/04/2024

Last race saves the day again. So disappointed by Matrika.

1.50 Newmarket - Woodhay Wonder 12/1ew, Run Boy Run 28/1ew

3.00 Newmarket - Only two of these have had a prep run and Shouldvebeenaring 9/2 is the best of them

315 Cheltenham - Game on for Glory 11/4

5.25 Newmarket - Mistry Grey 12/1ew

8.00 Chelmsford - War Zone 50/1ew


Tuesday 16 April 2024

Bets 17/04/2024

Dutch Decoy was robbed by the jockey. Seriously. WTF. Assume was told not to win by much but now totally screwed up. Thankfully Socialise won in the last at 25/1 so all good.


1.50 Newmarket - This is as tough as some of them yesterday. Could back 7 :). Went with Rateaa 16/1, Al Farabi 12/1, Wobwobwob 22/1.

2.25 Newmarket - Hmmmm. Tentatively Narkez 10/3?

3.00 Newmarket - Tricky. Astro King 10/1ew and The Foxes 12/1ew

3.35 Newmarket - I really like Matrika 9/2ew. Backed yesterday morning. That Ascot race was gutting for me when didn't win but Porta Fortuna nearly won at the Juveniles Filly Turf so form is rock. I will back again at 7/2.

4.10 Newmarket - Speculative. Lucid 14/1ew Hannon's ran fairly well today and has won this couple times

5.20 Newmarket - Kalpana 10/3


1.30 Cheltenham  Encanto Bruno 15/8

2.40 Cheltenham - Sail Away 5/1ew

3.50 Cheltenham - Gowel Road 9/1ew


7.00 Kempton - Rhasidat 16/1ew

8.30 Kempton - Midnight Drive 15/2ew




Bets 16/04/2024

 I Am Maximus landed me £1100 off a tenner so happy days. Backed these last night.


150 Newmarket - Dream Composer 5/1ew. Won last year and ran better in prep race than last year so the 1lb higher will mean nothing. So many of these are on a decent mark but just don't know if wound up. The one who might be is Lythal Nymph 16/1ew after a blinding run over 5f on the wrong side of the track lto. Really consistent sort who given is race fit might surprise some. or not :) Prince of Pillo and Big Board were next but stick with two.


220 Newmarket - Assuming Broadway Act 3/1 stays is ahead of mark and can win. Chaturanga 18s and Arisaig 12s looked the dangers, but stuck with BA


255 Newmarket - Cliff horse alerts (even though deleted both from tracker). Bopedra 17/2ew. Won this last year an Dutch Decoy 12/1ew a solid C&D horse


330 Newmarket - I was going to back Boling Point but is some serious money for El Bufalo. I also liked Starlore as one for this year and of course can't ignore anything Appelby is punting. Left the race. 


405 Newmarket - Kikkuli 9/4


440 Newmarket - Big risk on Phoenix Duchess 18/1ew. The formlines are pretty decent but hasn't run in a while


515 Newmarket - An even bigger risk on Empire of Light 40/1ew. If Sam James tries to make all I think has a chance.


800 Newcastle - And even more risky bets, Royal City 40/1ew, Socialise 25/1ew

 3 decent winners. Toughest day today.

1.20 Aintree - West Balboa 9/2. Backed on Thursday. It's pointless taking on Skelton hotpots in these big handicaps. Usually go ew on races like this but back otn.

1.55 Aintree - Jimmy Du Seuil 9/2. Backed on Thursday. Massive improvement lto and even with the pull I think can beat Brighterdaysahead. Probably should have gone ew again, but pah, it's done.

14.30 Aintree - King of Ryhope 4/1. Looks chucked in. Should have won the Sodexo. Could argue Kilbeg King should beat KoR on paper but watch the race. Don't think a 5lb pull will be enough. That said a very small money back bet on KK. Put a rfc on also.

15.05 Aintree - Nearly didn't bet in this. Tough. Just split stakes between Crambo 8/1 and Hidden Valley Lake 11/2. Nearly went Monkfish

16.00 Aintree - I have got so many of these Antepost it's not good. I have Coarach Rambler 6/1 and I Am Maximus. Both are doubles with Intense Raffles so either would be decent. Galia Dex Liteaux I have at 50/1. Backing Limerick Lace 10/1ew today as been shed loads of money last few days.

5.00 Aintree - Found a Fifty 15/8, although nearly went with Hercule

5.35 Aintree - No idea at all. Ma Shantou 7/1ew? Horces Pearl 20/1ew?

Thought was going to regret betting so much esp on faves. Turns out didn't back enough faves!

1.45 - Giovinco 9/1ew

2.20 - Kateria 6/1ew. Backed Making Headway 10/1 Antepost

2.55 - Mystical Power 11/8

3.30 - Jonbon 7/4

4.05 - I backed Ciel De Neige lto as thought could have been a plot but went off 100/1. Backed at 40s Antepost. Money for it today but think that might be pricewise. This is really tough but go with Amie Dejy 20/1ew

4.40 - Jukebox Man 7/2

5.15 - Densworth 8/1ew

Bets 06/04/2024

 A good 4/1 winner the other day.  Average racing today. 

2.05 Kempton - Choisya 7/2. Improving all last season. C&D winner. Trainer in form. Win nearly 1 in 4 at the track. A fair few dangers in this. 

2.40 Kempton - Old Harrovian 11/4. Potentially chucked in, but I hate backing horses who've not run at Kempton before. If acts like it does at Wolves could hose up despite fairly long absence.


Need to stop and save the pennies.


Ooops. 9.45am update

3.15 Kempton - Backed it last night in bed. Shouldn’t have as missing key factors for me, but backed it anyway. Spirit Mixer 9/1ew.

Bets 03/04/2024

Decent Irish National Winner :)

Tried hard not to look at the cards but had a small ew of course.

4.27 Catterick - Shelbourne 4/1ew. Ran well enough at Catterick over this distance. Mark looks like has some juice in it. Scott had a winner so stable form okay. Will try to make all. Went ew as this is a crap race and anything could be trying.

 So sad Meydan is over. Another decent season though with a lot of big priced winners.

Kempton 4.40 - Lieber Power 11/1ew - Backed early this morning. Back in trip, back to Kempon. IF bounces back to form is well handicapped. Money today suggests it might be.

Fairyhouse 5.00 - Intense Raffles 9/1ew. Backed Antepost. Market looks broadly right. Might even have a tricast with Nick and Yeah Man :)
