Ridiculous Ideas for 2025

[Mike]

Hi
No joy with Ceol Draiochta but we have another one going at Punchestown tomorrow. This one already owes us a few bob and will hopefully correct that situation and start us back on a winning streak for the festival.

3.05 Bright Legend @ 14-1 for 6 places

[Mike]

Hi
Lets hope this isn’t the start of a bad run as Bright Legend having started well pulled up very quickly half way round today. However we have another one going at Punchestown tomorrow so it will not take us too long to find out.

2.30 Hamsiyaan @ 10-1 for 6 places

[Mike]

Hi
Hamsiyaan was backed down to favourite during the day but I do not think the horse knew this as he faded away at the finish…lol. We have a possible runner tomorrow at Punchestown which is a reserve at present but could well get a run and at a huge price must be worth a punt.

2.30 Green Sky @ 40-1 for 6 places

[Mike]

Hi
Green Sky was a non runner but we have a couple of outsiders running today at Punchestown

3.42 Gala Marceau 16-1 but we will go with 10-1 without Jade De Grugy
4.50 Sony Bill 50-1 but this time we go 13-1 without Lulumba and Poniros

It means risking an extra point or so but these are tough races to be involved in.

[Mike]

Hi
Well we got Gala Marceau in for a win and crossed another one off the list by betting without the Jade De Grugy. We were also desperately unlucky with Sony Bill as we had done this one behind Lulumba and Poniros but unfortunately Sony Bill fell at the last when in the required third place as the front two had scooted clear. As there is nothing on the cards for tomorrow we will update the list.

Happy Me -0.2
Big Dispute -1
Bishbashbosh -0.2
Kish Bank +10.50
Aspurofthemoment +10.8
James the Brave – 2
Tremaine -3 + -1 = -4
Ballybow +13.5
Lakota Blue -4 + -4 = -8
You Done Well -3
Medai Naranja -1
Batman Girac -3
Sony Bill -1 = -2 = -3
Willy De Houlle -3 (injured)
Commanche Moon (now) +2.6
Big Dispute -2
Queen Of Seduction +5.5
Mujeres Isla (now) -2
Miss Mini Bee -2
Alright Darling (1/2 point each way @ 25-1) +2
Seskin Flash +12.3
King Of the Bronx +11.2
Gala Marceau +10.5
Ethical Diamond (1/2 point each way @ 16-1) = +1.1
Dream Shaper -1
Bright Legend – 4.65
Hamsiyann -5
Gold Dancer -1
Godblessyourosie -2
Ceol Draiochta -2

Running Total is now points +30.05

[Mike]

Hi
We have another chancer tomorrow over at Down Royal which runs in the 2.10

Shadow Paddy @ 14-1 for 5 places

[Mike]

Hi
We had yet another non runner on our last post but might get a run with one at Downpatrick tomorrow.

5.25 Bishbashbosh @ 7-1 for 4 places (BOG attached) the extra bit on the bet was essential as this one has drifted in the market before.

[Mike]

Hi
Well Bisbashbosh scraped fourth place but they all count and as we had BOG attached we picked up on the 11-1 SP so actually made a small +1.2 profit which brings him into a profit overall.
We have an addition to the list running tomorrow which is a 4yo but we are beginning to have a bit more faith in these as the season progress’s.
Cork 1.40 Tassarolo @ 14-1 but we may well update this later by betting without the favourite.

[Mike]

Hi
I have waited as long as I dare and will go with Tassarolo at 11-1 without both Mick Collins and Killeaney Bear in the hope of getting something back.

[Mike]

Hi
Sods Law I was convinced I had a winning bet going over the last having bet without Killeaney Bear only for Los Toldos to ruin the party. But we did make a small profit for the place so we live to fight another day and that other day is tomorrow at Killarney….lol.

1.20 Tremaine @ 33-1
1.55 Grey Fable @ 14-1
3.05 Batman Girac @ 7-1

We have gone straight in with Batman Girac @ 7-1 with BOG attached as we are quite keen on him. Grey Fable will probably be the same but we will wait a little bit longer but Tremaine will definitely be a bet without the favourite/s if he gets a run.

[Mike]

Hi
We had taken Batman Girac @ 7-1 last night and having waited Grey Fable, he has become a drifter and we have now managed to get 13-1 without both Westminster Moon and Ifallgoeswell. Unfortunately Romany Brown is now favourite but you can’t win them all. Tremaine is as expected a non runner but I am happy enough with both bets taken.

[Mike]

Hi
Grey Fable let the side down today but fortunately was a decent price so didn’t cost us too much on the day at 1 point each way but goes in the list at -2. The good news is that Batman Girac who was -3 had to be backed at 2 points each way to enable us to clear the +10 point profit required. this meant that he cleared +16.8 and after deducting the -3 deficit now stand at +13.8.
We will update the overall sheet soon but it now stands at an impressive + 44. 25 as of tonight. This may well drop a point or so tomorrow as we only have the one going tomorrow which is as follows

Killarney 5.08 Big Dispute @ 50-1

We will be looking to back this one without the favourite/s but even then at the expected price of 16-1 or more it will only cost us 1/2 point each way so no drama’s.

[Mike]

Hi
We have managed to get 19-1 without both Joli Travail and On Cloud Wine and will settle for that as it will only cost us the minimum 1/2 point each way.

[Mike]

Hi
The 50-1 would have been better but I will settle for the 19-1 and that was so close to being another winner as Big Dispute was just collared on the line. But it was another profit albeit only +2.8 points and the good run continues. We have one going tomorrow over at Sligo.

7.30 Cois Fharriage @ 10-1 for 5 places

[Mike]

Hi
Cois Fharriage managed 5th for a small profit and keeps the pot boiling but I will leave the update until tomorrow as we have what could be one of those days tomorrow over at Tipperary.

5.10 Ballyearl 11-1 but we will go 9-1 without Portetta
5.10 Doctor Confusion 8-1 but we have gone 15-2 without Portetta
6.20 Shadow Paddy @ 18-1 for 5 places
6.50 Tremaine @ 12-1 for 5 places
7.20 Easy Doyen 100-1 but we have gone 33-1 without Mashalla Habibi and Bitofajokelike
