Ridiculous Ideas for 2025

[Mike]

Hi
Lakota Blue faded badly having jumped the last in contention for -4 (-2 points each way) but such is life. Suds has noted that there is another 4yo going tomorrow at Limerick and we are not giving up on the 4yo’s just yet…lol.
3.40 You Done Well @ 6-1 for 3 places

[Mike]

Hi
You Done Well faded badly probably due to the ground and it is fortunate that we do not have anything else until the weekend by which time we hope to be back on Soft or Soft to Heavy. The other issue we have is that we have yet to get 4yo runner home and may decide to split the wager up into sections (if this continues). It is a puzzle, it may just be that we have been unlucky with that age group but we will break it down and look into it when we have a bit more to go on.

Hi
We have two runners going on Sunday at Leopardstown which are as follows

12.40 Media Naranja @ 22-1 for 6 places (Sky bet)
3.50 Batman Girac @ 33-1 for 6 places (bet365)

I believe Suds has a couple of 4yo runners going tomorrow at Leopardstown

Hiya , well as Mike said I have some interest in a couple of 4 yr olds in the 1.50 at Leopardstown tomorrow
Sony Bill 16/1 for 3 places
Willy De Houelle 33/1 for 3 places with bet 365

[Mike]

Hi
It been one of those weeks Media Naranja getting blocked in Batman Girac falling at the last (when in fifth and staying on), Sony Bill and Willy De Houlle finished 4th and 5th when we wanted third etc etc. But such is life it means we are however still confident of a return to winning ways soon and as all four bets were big prices and only cost us the minimum wager of 1 point 1/2 point each way which means we are still in profit. Here is the update for those following the thread.

Happy Me -0.2 points
Big Dispute -1 point
Bishbashbosh -0.2 points
Kish Bank -0.75 points
Aspurofthemoment +10.8 points
James the Brave (backed at 1 point each way @ 10-1) – 2
Tremaine (backed at 1 point each 11-1) -2
Ballybow (backed at 1.5 points each way @ 15-2) +13.5
Lakota Blue (2 points each way) -4
You Done Well (1.5 points each way) -3
Medai Naranja -1
Batman Girac -1
Sony Bill -1
Willy De Houlle -1

Running total now stands at +7.5 points

Hi
It’s been a while but we finally have a few over at Clonmel tomorrow which are as follows
1.10 Commanche Moon 66-1
1.45 Ballybow 4-5 (No bet for the thread as too short a price)
2.10 Big Dispute @ 12-1 for 4 places
At present we are debating whether to use such bets as each way extras as obviously with today’s bets 11-1 for 6 places for Commanche Moon would be a sensible option.

[Mike]

Hi
In answer to the first query we did not back Ballybow as we had already won +13.50 on him and although he won today we felt he was too short in price for us (at this time). Both of today’s selections went down but both were nominal stakes as they were big prices and have not damaged us to badly.

Hi
Just the one tomorrow running in Ireland which is Mujeres Isle @ 33-1 for 5 places in the 2.30 at Gowran Park.
I say running in Ireland because I believe Suds has covered one which has gone over to Haydock on Suds goes off course 

 

[Mike]

Hi
Mujeres Isle was a non runner today and we have just the one for tomorrow which is Pookie Holler @ 10-1 who goes in the 4.10 at Punchestown. Hopefully it will run but there were a lot of non runners today and that is in the lap of the gods.

[Mike]

Hi
Pookie Holler obviously did not run due to the racing being cancelled but is declared tomorrow at Punchestown (but it is a harder race).

2.50 Pookie Holler @ 12-1
4.50 Seskin Flash @ 6-1 for 5 places

[Mike]

Hi
Racing cancelled again today but we hope to have one going at Fairyhouse tomorrow for this thread.
1.05 Kish Bank @ 5-2
I also believe Suds might be posting a 4yo for the thread so fingers crossed.

[Clarence]

Hiya, we have Lakota Blue 8/1 in the 1.40 at Fairyhouse . 🤞

[Mike]

Hi
No joy with the last one but Pookie Holler 12-1 is declared in the 2.35 at the re-arranged Punchestown meeting today.
Typical having waited to check Punchestown was going ahead today Pookie Holler has just been declared a non runner. Maybe when the ground dries out we will finally get back to normal on this thread.

[Mike]

Hi
We have two possible selections today subject to non runners…lol, both are at Clonmel.
3.25 Queen Of Seduction @ 40-1
4.35 Mujeres Isla @ 20-1
We will update any options when we know who is likely to run but at present both are available for 5 places which looks reasonable enough.

[Mike]

Hi
I would have to be disappointed with the run given to Queen Of Seduction as coming around the final bend whilst in contention the horse was pulled up and on checking the result anticipating a veterinary explanation no explanation was given. ? But such is life and although at the prices both were the minimum stake wagers here is the updated list which is getting near the knuckle profit wise.
