Bets 08/04/2014

2.40 Pontefract – Munaaser 4/9 has no competition on paper

3.10 Pontefract – If Jazz 5/2 has improved a tiny bit he will take all the beating as last race was solid, although despite a wide draw Kickboxer 9/1 looks well weighted

4.15 Pontefract – Stepping ahead 8/1 is pretty interesting with decent Aw form behind Robin Hoods Bay. On paper looks like prefers turf, however last run slightly worrying. Romantic Setting 8/1 at Ayr on GS ran a blinder behind Sharestan and back in handicap company looks tasty on this mark. Las Verglas Star 8/1 might win or come last!

4.45 Pontefract – On paper have to back Too Smart 13/8

5.15 Pontefract – Though was going to hit jackpot with High Office 7/2 last week. Still on decent mark.

Bets 07/04/2014

Windsor 2.40 – I reckon Star Code 5/1 has the best form on paper vs current handicap mark behind Pool House. Back to turf and back in trip

Windsor 3.10 – If Tobacco Road 6/1 gets his own way upfront might nab this.

Just single ew and ew double

Bets 06/04/2014

The flat saved me again yesterday:

Just an ew patent on Pricewise today:
2.40 Fairyhouse - Miteball Forluck 9/2
2.55 Cork - Scream Blue Murder 9/2
3.50 Fairyhouse - Le Vent D'Antan 9/2

Bets 05/04/2014 - The Grand National 2014

Tom Pricewise Segal from the Racingpost has tipped 2 more in the National today:

·         Big Shu 25/1

·         Burton Port 16/1

He also tipped Teaforthree 20/1 (massive chance on last years form) and Shaklalakboomboom 50/1 (who has been trained for this)

Right here goes nothing (again)….

Aintree 1.30 – All form points to Wilde Blue Yonder 11/2 behind Vatour. Doubly franked yesterday. Whatever beats it will be smart.

Aintree 2.05 – Balder Success 7/2 is King’s “best chance of the week”

Aintree 2.50 – At Fishers Cross 7/4 or Zark? Hmm

Aintree 3.25 – Victor Hewgo 9/2 is ahead of his mark based on form with Holywell

Aintree 4.15 – Before these fences became so safe, it was possible to get close to the winner. You could sack off anything with dodgey jumping. Now the fences are child proof it’s more of a lottery. All the punters say so and that why we now have Gold Cup runners in this race and not pure National runners. I only wanted to back one, but as always I’ve has an Antepost bet already The Package 25/1 (form of this has been franked couple times)

Every trainer is bullish, so no clues from them. The ground is too quick for a few so can at least snub a good dozen or so.               

I was going to pick three in this and one was definitely Burton Port 18/1. With Segal tapping him up I thought I’d hit 3 more:

1)      Golan Way 150/1  - loves Aintree, front runner, good form, has won a listed handicap race of a higher mark and a G2H too, jumping has improved from when he should have won the John Smith Novice Chase here 2 years ago and well now this race truly has become a lottery why not!

2)      Prince De Beauchene 25/1 was a major player in the betting last year before injury. I’ve always liked him and he has won at this meeting

3)      Finally a horse that nearly won the Topham last year for a trainer bang in form, Walkon 50/1

Aintree 5.10 – Katgary 3/1 is short and not sure how good that form is after Hawk High got merked. But this is a huge step down in class as it is for Vasco Du Ronceray 14/1 and Massinis Trap 16/1

Aintree 5.45 – Have to go with King’s horses Ordo Ab Chao 9/1 and McCabe Creek 25/1

A few on flat today but nothing I can be bothered to look through as wasted time looking at the jumps card!

Lingfield 1.50 – 1^st Athletic 2^nd Presumido 3^rd Bertie Blue Boy

Lingfield 3.00 – Brass Ring looks ahead of handicapper

Lngfield 3.40 – Barley Mow 11/10 top rated

Newcastle 2.45 – Aetna 4/1 was going the right way and hopefully has improved again into a 4 yr old. Form has been franked and a winner at Newcastle

Bets 04/04/2013

Once again spanked on the jumps, but flat was 2/3…

Tom Pricewise Segal has tapped up 4 today:

Aintree 2.00 – Art of Payroll 8/1

Aintree 2.30 – Don Cossack 7/1

Aintree 3.40 – Your Busy 20/1, Standing Ovation 12/1

Hit a Segal Treble x2. My finger in the air picks…

Aintree 2.00 – Josies Hill wins on all stats, but Sgt Reckless 11/2  looks a better bet for me the way he came after JH at Chelts. McCoy onboard will squeeze every last ounce out of him

Aintree 2.30 – Wonderful Charm 4/1 is top rated and 2^nd to Oscar W giving 8lbs has to be the best form.

Aintree 3.05 – Boston Bob 17/2 is a grade 1 winner and he should have won the RSA last year. The ground has softened a littled bit so the shorter distance won’t be an issue. If Townsend is riding up close to pace reckon decent chance.

Aintree 3.40 – Dunowen Point 16/1. 8lb lower than last year when 8leghts from winning. Simple. Tatenen 25/1 is back to best too and very low in weights. Kauto Stone 33/1 is one of those who will either come last or make a mockery of his mark. Lost Legend 16/1 might be interesting. I’m going to stop as I could keep backing other nags in this all day long.

Aintree 4.15 – Tagrita 16/1 has been given a promising write up by Nicholls and Seeyouatmidnight 5/1 just looks class

Aintree 4.50 – Party Rock 33/1 lively outsider if bounces back to form, else Stonebrook 9/1 could be well handicapped based on form with Josies Hill and Ataglance 9/1 looked very unlucky last time out.

Aintree 5.25 – Lady Buttons 8/1 best rated.

Giggestown Treble x2

If I have foolishly written of Josies Hill & Raj Express – Doubled

Else EW Accs including Sgt Reckless, Wonderful Charm, Dunowen Point, Lost Legend, Tagrita, Seeyouatmidnight, Stonebrook and Ataglance

And back to the flat…

1.50 Leicester – Al Mukhdam 7/2 has more juice left in his mark and looks better at 7furlongs. He will go off upfront and just hope Dane times it right.

3.30 Leicester – Wee Jean and Beau Nash ran behind some decent horses at Ascot last year, but the form for Canyari 13/8 is better. Not sure what happended last time out but can hopefully draw a line through that.

4.40 Leicester – Shasta Daisy 13/8 should have won a similar race last time

Leicester Treble

Bets 03/04/2014

2/3 yesterday for ones bet on. Aintree today, but don't pay too much attention to my jumps bets. I've had a torrid jumps season and my poor form knowledge leads me to want to back pretty much all of the favourites!

Tom Pricewise Segal has hit a few today:

2.00 Aintree - Hawk High 14/1, Aurore D'Estruval 12/1
4.15 Aintree - Arnaud 7/1

Well here goes nothing. Not going heavy on anything...

Aintree 2.00 – Calipto maybe could have won the triumph if not for bad luck so looks the best horse in race. It worries me when bookies are going against a favourite. Sky offering money back if fvaourite wins and Paddy Power offering money back if horse finishes 2nd or 3rd. Actival is decent too. Although favourites have won the last 7/10 so will stick with Calipto and Activial.

Aintree 2.30 – Dynaste 2/1. SC had a hard race so can’t have him. FL is the danger.

Aintree 3.05 – No point taking on The New One 4/9 is there?

Aintree 3.40 – Mossey Joe 15/8 or Warne 4/1

Aintree 4.15 - Have to punt for an outsider on this and goes to Gus Macrae 33/1. Can't believe he is penultimate in the betting. Put the heavy ground down as an excuse. Claret Cloak would have been a solid bet but the weights are now revised and carrying a fair weight. Sound Investment not out of it. Hmm another tough one.

Aintree 4.50 - I'm a sucker for Oscar Whisky 9/4

Aintree 5.25 - Spirit of Shankly 12/1 and Busty Brown 8/1

Right back to the flat

Lingfield 1.50 - BIg Kenny 4/6 clear on ratings

Lingfield 2.20 - Oaks entry Shama 11/10 will have come on for last run

Lingfield 4.05 - Gregori might set this up pefectly for Jubliee Brig 9/2 but multiple dangers coming down in class.

Lingfield Treble

Aintree a few accs involving all mentioned

Across card Acc Big Kenny, Dynaste, TNO, Mossey Joe

Bets 02/04/2014

4/6 yesterday, which was encouraging.

2.55 Lingfield – Sacha Park Evs owns this. All his races last year suggested needed a step up in trip and the form is far beyond anything else here.

4.10 Leapordstown – Johann Strauss 1/3 too short to back, and how many times have we seen the 2^nd string ballydole runner win these! (Table Rock 8/1 2 place insurebet better)

4.40 Leapordstown – Kingsbarns 2/5 too short to back but is 13lb clear on rating. No betting.

4.25 Lingfield – Sequined 2/1 looks ahead of his mark but Isabella Beeton 16/1 does too.

8.25 Kempton – Hopefully Love Excel 7/4 is not better at Wolves then here. If he is similar then is miles ahead of the handicapper.

Sacha, Sequined and Love Excel Trixie.

Isablella Beeton and Table Rock ew Double.
