    FORM - Related doubles

    I think it might be worth having a thread for form related doubles. Everyone knows my opinion on "Roll Ups" but the best method of using doubles with an ante-post Cheltenham selection as the second leg (IMO) is to take advantage of the ability to benefit from a related contingency of sorts...

    Favourites ?

    A bit of fun for us to look back on in the week before Cheltenham, and the aftermath:crushed: Sadly, we have no competition champion this year after the sad loss of Diamond Geezer. I am nowhere near as generous with my time as he was so this is just for fun and discussion. And I'll refer back...

    2nd season novices

    Might have a few more than normal go on to have a second season in novice company this year. I reckon there's a lot to talk through. Apologies if this has already been brought up. Two I've had a good look at today. Pipesmoker Ciel de Neige Both still just 5 years old and both have decent...

    Horses who missed/skipped Cheltenham

    I was listening to a podcast earlier and started thinking about the horses that missed Cheltenham for whatever reason. I'd be interested to hear any opinions on where these horses may end up, or if there is any news on any of them for next season in terms of plans or injuries etc. One or two...

    Virtual Grand National 2020 - Tips inside!

    It could be months before proper racing. As this is a computer generated simulation, there must be some logic to the eventual outcome. On this basis I reckon this is a decent betting proposition. Anyone got any logical thought process as to any likely winners.

    BORDERS - non essential travel

    Just done a summary on supreme, and I mentioned the potential issue with borders. If you look at China, and the fact they have no new cases at home, but they are flying in every day. There's a very good chance that non-essential travel across borders is a long term issue that the Pandemic is...

    Quevega Yankee (name to be confirmed)

    What about a shit price yankee. On what we've seen and the horse has achieved vs price. i'd have to say. Allaho JLT 3-1 Lamarckise 9-2 Shishkin 5-2 Pentland Hills 9-2 I actually think Pentland Hills price is the daddy of worst prices. I genuinely cannot remember a worst priced horse. But...

    DUBLIN - Snakes & Ladders

    Big weekend coming up. And some antepost bets are going to be looking very handsome (David Beckham like) on Sunday evening. And some antepost bets are going to luck very ugly (Iain Dowie like) on Sunday evening. Might be worth waiting for Final declarations but I'd be interested to hear...

    Melbourne Cup 2019

    Like last year B365 very generously priced in this race. backed True Self 100-1 Downdraft 100-1 The news over night about possible none runners is potentially useful as both these need a few to come out before saturday. Vets will look at all horses in next two days. Both have a lot going for...

    ARC de Triomphe 2019

    Had to back Mehdaayih again with Sky 40-1 2pts ew NRNB. I'm not a layer. adding to existing bets.... Mehdaayih 1pt 1000-1, 1pt 470-1, 1pt 80-1. Japan 2pts 12-1 B365. Thought it best to have a place on my side with so much potentially riding on her. Fully expecting her not to run (can't...

    Ryanair 2020

    Been down the list on oddschecker (probably plenty not listed) Of the genuine likely runners. best current prices. Defi du seuil 8-1 - Solid favourite and price about right, but IMO could easily run in either of the other 2 big chases, depending on the competition and how his season pans out...

    Well Handicapped Irish Festival types

    Just a list for now, Irish hurdlers from last season that would likelt pitch up at the festival in 2020. But these horses are all on good marks IMO. Please note that these are Irish Handicap hurdle ratings only. Many of those on this list may change disciplines for the new season and their...

    EACH WAY Extra

    With 365 this concession has been very useful in last fortnight. I know some on here use it and have noticed Kev mention it a few times. But in last fortnight I’ve been using it on maiden flat races. Betting all the way down to over half the field a lot of time so in a seven runner race can get...

    King George 2020

    Anyone know what plans they may have regards targets for Defi Du Seuil next season ? I've backed him today for this at 33-1 ew with B365. If LIT is less than half the price then it just looks value to me and the RSA novices all look a bit slow for it based on the novice race they ran at...

    Enhance or Disappoint

    Reputations. Are on the line this weekend, so for a bit of fun. Who do you think will enhance their reputation this weekend ? And who will disappoint ? With a view to cheltenham obviously. Maybe three of each and we'll see after the weekend how well we've done. We can all mark/appraise our...

    Horse you wished you'd backed but haven't

    There's always the ones that got away when antepost punting. after Saturday the biggest miss for me has to be Paisley Park. Will possibly be max bet on the day now, when I could have had it for normal stakes at far bigger, and even turned down 10-1 last friday. was at cheltenham so couldn't...

    Pricewise vs us

    Pricewise getting stick (for good reason) but how hard is it. He Put Al Dancer up for the supreme (I think at 20-1) What's you're best best (has to be 20-1 or bigger) Sure he has remit similar to that, even if it's in his own head. Be a good bet if you get a runner, ITCHY FEET 40-1 FOR ME
