Bets 13/01/2013

Didn't lose too much yesterday because got 3 things spot on. Firstly The New One and Tetlami were bankers so was heavily wedged on although Tetlami gave me a scare. Next that Loose Chips and Pete The Feat had risen too far for this level. Finally totally ignore Segal's pick Quentin Collonges. I couldn't see why it could win so ignored it and found the winner in Rigadin. Had half a dozen places, but I went OTT on accumulators hence the negative balance.

Few races in Ireland. Still not up with the form, so hard to be confident, but punting in them is the only way I'll get to know it better! Sure there are other ways but this is how I choose to learn!

Navan 1.15 – A lot of unknowns but drawn to A Word Apart 12/1 who has pretty good flat form and looks like trip won’t be a problem. Very speculative.

Navan 1.45 – Barney’s Honour 4/1

Navan 2.15 – Casablanca Lily 13/2 will relish step up and baring no mistakes can sit behind the leaders and then power home. Slightly more of a hopeful punt is Hard To Swallow 8/1. Old form puts him as one to beat

Navan 2.45 – Alderwood 4/6 looks class apart from rest. Is a decent hurdler and form in book from last run.
