Winning Post Tips

[Mike]

Hi
A mixed bag that went downhill after a cracking start with Routine Excellence winning at 8-1 then Artic Gale placing second at 13-8 but with both of the others (although running well) finishing out of the places it was a live to fight another day scenario.
We have an interesting one over at Wexford
3.20 Hutton Glen @ 25-1 we missed the 33-1
Also it would be worth looking at the 5.50 at Down Royal for reference as one trainer brings three over and although Southey looks the stable pick be mindful of a market move on either of the Largy runners.

Hi
Building works are now all but finished and computer room finally back up and running. I would swear I am doing more work now than before my retirement…lol. Originally the site had been set up for a team of pundits covering a selection of sports but that idea has unfortunately somewhat fallen by the wayside (for now). New members are always welcome but as we do get a lot of spam and false applications weird and wonderful @email addresses are unfortunately automatically filtered out.

As for the future of the site and especially the “Winningposts” side of it, we have been gearing up over the last few years to my retirement plan by building a data base of Irish hurdlers and for future reference the vast majority of our wagers will be confined to this parameter. The exception to this will be our competition pages such as the Ten To Follow and Beat The Lotto  which have there own criteria. We are slowly opening up all the old threads but as an example regarding this thread, there is only one Irish NH meeting next week as the Flat season comes to its climax so the wagers will be thin on the ground during September. This is the month we tend to find out who is coming back into the fold and whether or not we will be having any new members join in.

Hi
We will try and get off to a flyer tomorrow over at Listowel with the following selections.
2.00 Brave Fortune @ 6-1
3.10 Marelly @ 33-1 for 5 places
3.45 Dorans Law @ 14-1 for 5 places
Brave Fortune is up against a couple of decent sorts tomorrow but until his last run had been a very consistent type that looked like being one to follow. He has been given a break which indicates there may have been an issue and if all is now well could be overpriced.
Marelly was a decent enough hurdler who was switched to chasing to no effect and now looks to be running off a decent weight now being returned to hurdling and might prove to be the value outsider in the race.
Dorans Law fits the bill on a system we have been dabbling with and at 14-1 for 5 places is worth a look.

[Mike]

Hi
Well that could have been a lot worse one non runner and two placed from three bets
2.00 Brave Fortune @ 6-1 (Placed 3rd)
3.10 Marelly @ 33-1 for 5 places (Non Runner)
3.45 Dorans Law @ 14-1 for 5 places (Placed 3rd)
Not the flyer we were looking for but a profit never the less and I will gladly settle for that.
We had a few lined up at Listowel tomorrow but will probably bypass the meeting as the rain has come in and looks like getting worse. Soft to Heavy is forecast and the cards are likely to be decimated by non runners. We will update tomorrow if anything changes. 🙂

[Mike]

Hi
Against my better judgement I am going to put this one up tomorrow at Listowel. I say that as the ground has gone Soft to Heavy very quickly and that can sometimes be a disastrous scenario but the price is just to tempting.
3.55 Duke Otto @ 28-1 for 6 places (sky bet)

[Mike]

Hi
That went better than expected as although being squeezed out when jumping the last Duke Otto still managed to finish second on the run in. I would have preferred the win but a place at the 28-1 advised gives us a nice little +4.6 point profit on the day.
We are heading over to Roscommon tomorrow for the following
2.50 Field A Thistles @ 13-2
3.25 Fire Coral @ 8-1 for 5 places

[Mike]

Hi
Not so clever in the last wager with neither horse lasting home but we will dip our toe in the water at Clonmel.
2.45 Leave In Secret 6-1 (but is dependent on 8 runners staying in the race)
4.25 Sydney Cruiser @ 11-2 for 5 places
4.55 Tullamaore Lucy @ 14-1 for 5 places

[Mike]

Hi
This post has nothing to do with the fact that we are struggling to get one home lately but there is a funny one over at Killarney tomorrow along with what should be an each way banker.
1.40 Inch Alainn @ 100-1
2.15 Bayou Belle @ 15-2 for 4 places
I am pretty sure you can work out which is the each way banker and which one is the oddball but I will update the thread tomorrow when the extra markets are published.

[Mike]

Hi
With the non runners starting to be declared we are happy enough to take Inch Alainn at 21-1 for 4 places for the site having maybe possibly taken him at 100-1 for the crack last night.

[Mike]

Hi
Bayou Belle placed and the big outsider Inch Alainn came 5th when when we wanted 4th but such is life. This hopefully means we are starting to get our eye in again and we have gone with the following over at Fairyhouse today.
2.33 Banana Three @ 4-1
3.43 Big Chou @ 5-1
4.18 Noble Hilltop @ 16-1 for 5 places
There have been a few non runners since we placed the bets so there may some price changes or be the odd deduction dependent on which race and which/how many runners have dropped out but again such is life. Over confidence is never a good thing but I would not put off anyone having an each way accumulator on the above.

[Mike]

Hi
Another step in the right direction yesterday with the following results
2.33 Banana Three @ 4-1 (Placed at 6-1 with BOG)
3.43 Big Chou @ 5-1 (Won)
4.18 Noble Hilltop @ 16-1 for 5 places (Fell when in contention)
This meant we cleared a +4 point profit on the day and although we have nothing for today we will are starting to get into gear again and will be back shortly. 🙂

Hi
Whilst we have not posted on here we are experimenting on the “Ridiculous Ideas for 2024″ thread for our switch to the new site option.

[Mike]

Hi
For those who followed the link or actually read the threads we put up Mount Mandela in the 2.05 at Tramore last night. He led over the last only to get mugged on the line and end up second but at the 50-1 available last night and the 10-1 for 6 places we put him up at this morning we were more than happy. 🙂
As explained in the Ridiculous Ideas thread we are considering changing the way we place tips in the future due to the lack interest in site participation but such is life.

Hi mc
So you finally got the data base going it only took you twelve years.😂
It’s a sad state of affairs but websites appear to be past there sell by date. 🫤
But if you ever give this up you would be welcome back here anytime. 🥳
Just bring your data base with you. 😏
Nice result today 👍

[Mike]

Hi G
I see you left the house before posting to play safe. I knew you were only after my database…lol.
I may have taken a while to get around to compiling a database but what’s with all the emojis you will be getting a remote control for your tv next. 🙂
