Winning Post Tips

Hi
With no each way extra markets being published or no Irish Racing due to abandoned meetings we are getting withdrawal symptoms….lol. But we have a cheeky each way double over at Fairyhouse tomorrow.
2.10 Al Gasparo @ 15-2
5.50 Morning Soldier @ 10-1
We hope to be back on Sunday with something more substantial. 🙂

[Mike]

Hi
No joy with the long shot each way double but we do finally have a shortlist of selections tomorrow
Cork 4.05 Any Road 10-1
Cork 4.40 Cher Why Not 14-1
Fairyhouse 1.25 Mywayorthehighway 100-1
Fairyhouse 1.25 Wardens Whisper 100-1
Fairyhouse 2.00 Joyeaux Vivo 9-1 (5 places)
Fairyhouse 2.00 Pax 10-1 (5 places)
Fairyhouse 2.00 Shraheen 25-1 (5 places)
Fairyhouse 3.10 Mossy Fen Park 16-1 (4 places)
Fairyhouse 3.10 Gold Dancer 14-1 (4 places)
Fairyhouse 3.45 Angostura 12-1
We have put our initial thoughts down and will sort the wagers out tomorrow as the extra markets will be required with most of the above options (whichever ones we go for)

[Mike]

Hi
We have manged to whittle down the list from last night and will go with the following
Fairyhouse 2.00 Joyeaux Vivo @ 8-1 (5 places)
Fairyhouse 3.10 Gold Dancer @ 14-1 (4 places)
Fairyhouse 3.45 Angostura @ 10-1
Cork 4.05 Any Road @ 9-1
Cork 4.40 Cher Why Not @ 14-1
Unfortunately we have missed a few of the best prices but the above have been done as each way doubles and an each way accumulator 🙂 We would have gone in with a few of the other ones but as an example in the 1.25 the prices were pathetic in the each way extra markets so we decided not to use them (on here) but we still fancy that our two selections will make the top ten.

[Mike]

Hi
Gold Dancer 14-1 and Any Road 9-1 both placed and with Cher Why Not being a non runner we ended up wiping our nose on the day so its on to tomorrow with no damage done. 🙂
Cork 1.48 Driscolls Hill 22-1
Cork 2.23 Macinamillion 11-1 (4 places)
Cork 2.23 Aboy Joey 20-1 (4 places)
Fairyhouse 2.05 Boher Road @ 25-1 for 5 places
Fairyhouse 3.15 Western Fold 16-1 (4 places)
We do like Boher Road and if confirmed the 10-1 for 10 places looks a banker, we will update the thread in the morning. 🙂

[Mike]

Hi
We did not get much of a chance to update today but here are todays results
Cork 1.48 Driscolls Hill 22-1 Placed
Cork 2.23 Macinamillion 11-1 Won
Cork 2.23 Aboy Joey 20-1 Placed
Fairyhouse 2.05 Boher Road @ 25-1 for 5 places (Crashed out when well clear)
Fairyhouse 3.15 Western Fold 16-1 (lost)
Not a bad little haul on the day even if we cannot claim them for the thread.  🙁
Nothing now until Thursday I believe. ?

[Mike]

Hi
I cannot see anything over at Clonmel but we do like the following at Naas
2.10 Touch Me Not 9-2
2.10 Targo Flavia 150-1
2.40 The Great Unknown 8-1
3.10 Aero’s Luck 14-1
3.40 Papa Barns @ 9-1 for 6 places
4.10 Gabriel Ranger @ 11-1 for 6 places
4.50 Jeronimo De L’ouch @ 9-2 for 6 places
We have gone in with the highlighted options as usual and will wait for the extra markets to see if we can get a decent price on any of the others.

[Mike]

Hi
In the 2.10 Touch Me Not is a big drifter in the markets and there are no decent odds on Targo Flavia (bet 365 are offering 27/4 for 10 places which is pathetic for a 200-1 shot).So we will leave those with the exception of possibly backing them without the favourites if you are desperate for a bet.
2.40 The Great Unknown has been backed and is worth a punt in mixed doubles with the three already backed last night. The issuse here is that the price is short considering there are only 3 places available.
3.10 Aero’s Luck is friendless probabaly due to the ground but again if he runs a bet without the favourite looks best.
We are happy enough with the three we put up last night and will stick with those. 🙂 BOG (best odds guaranteed) is available on most races so do not worry too much about price fluctuations.
The possible exception is we are going to try a cheeky long shot acca using Touch Me Not (without the favs), The Great Unknown and Aero’s Luck (without the fav’s) along with the three from last night. (What could possibly go wrong…lol)  🙂

[Mike]

Hi
Well which idiot had to say it “What could possibly go wrong” oh.. it was me 🙁 we got our first slapped arse of 2024 yesterday but we were long overdue so “Que sera sera” (whatever will be will be). There is no racing due to abandoned meetings over the next few days and we are always dangerous after a loss so it gives us time to recover… 🙂
The one issue we have is the removal of decent each way extra pricing by bet365 which has been our go to bet for the last few years and that means a rethink so it may be time to consider the “Betfair exchanges”. I would not have attempted this whilst I was working but now retired it could be perfect timing. 🙂
Expect a few Baldricks (cunning plans) over the next few weeks which may crash and burn or…:)

[Mike]

Hi
With all the bad weather and abandoned meetings it looks as though we have nothing until Thursday at the earliest this week, but it will give us a chance to look further at trying out a Baldrick on the betfair exchanges.
The Aintree Grand National meeting comes up this weekend and for those who took the hint last month on this thread Winning Post Tips where we suggested backing Mr Incredible at 40-1 NRNB it looks like he will run. He is now trading at between 12-1 and 14-1 and once the final declarations are made I think he will shorten up even further.

[Mike]

Hi
We finally have a NH meeting in Ireland that is going to go ahead and it is at Limerick tomorrow.
We are going to take a punt at two horse having there first handicap runs and they are as follows.
2.35 Mywayorthehighway @ 25-1 for 4 places
4.55 Bossofthebus @ 25-1 for 5 places
We are obviously going in with the each way singles for the site but an each way double is tempting. 🙂

[Mike]

Hi
Apologies yesterday I was engrossed in my new thread Ridiculous Ideas for 2024 and should have spotted the huge drift on Mywayorthehighway who opened at 25-1 and went out to 100-1 and at one time touched 150-1. There must have been something amiss there. 🙁 Boss of the bus just didn’t last the trip in the mud and we dropped 4 points. 🙁
We have nothing until Sunday now, but obviously with the Grand National coming up on Saturday I am sure you are all receiving advice from everywhere so do not any from me. 🙂 However we had put up Mr Incredible at 40-1 some time ago and are sticking with him. However if your desperate for an option I would not put anyone off Panda Boy 16-1 Skybet or at a bigger price Galia Des Liteaux at 40-1 again with Skybet.
Best of luck to anyone having a punt you will need it. We personally just need Mr Incredible to not sulk at the start (he has been known to refuse to race) not bite of any of the other runners the jockey (or anyone else) and we might just get lucky….lol.

[Mike]

Hi
Mr Incredible was hampered and unseated early doors in the National so we will never know. 🙁
However, at long last there is some Irish NH racing going and it is at Down Royal tomorrow.
2.30 Spatman De Crisy @ 16-1 for 4 places (12-1 for 5 places Skybet)
3.40 Ocean Legacy @ 20-1 for 4 places (16-1 for 5 places Skybet)
We are not 100% in love with these but the NH season is winding down, so we feel obligated to put something up and we are hopeful.

[Mike]

Hi
No joy with either wager today and unfortunately with the National Hunt season all but over (apart from the Punchestown festival) we are going into semi hibernation on the racing. As you can see we were scratching around for a bet today. 🙁 We will be looking to keep all the threads going and will as usual find something to bet on even if it is something new. There will always be the odd meeting and there are two Irish NH racecards this week but the pickings might be slim. ?

[Mike]

Hi
We will have a dabble tomorrow over at Naas with the following options
1.30 Minella Buddy 50-1
1.30 Handysonofdan 50-1
2.05 Cheerful Chap @ 7-1 for 5 places
2.40 Ayiko @ 7-1
3.15 Gabriel Ranger @ 12-1
4.25 Cullenwaine @ 20-1 for 5 places
We are going with the highlighted options but also with the each way doubles option and will update the 1.30 tomorrow as we are looking for extra markets and they are about as rare as hens teeth at present. 🙁

[Mike]

Hi
We are still struggling with the each way options as the old enemy are being very mean with there prices. 🙁
But we will try Minella Buddy @ 33-4 for 9 places and Handysonofdan @ 9-1 for 8 places.
We have already used Gabriel Ranger on the exchanges last night on the Ridiculous Ideas for 2024 thread where we backed him at just over 10-1 and have just placed a lay bet this morning at 7-1 to cover our backs. This a new thing we are dabbling with which we will go into slowly as it is a bit difficult to get your head around. 🙂
