Hi
We have been dabbling on the basketball scene with RKay lately and will try to kick off a rolling maul on here using tonights fixtures and if all goes to plan we will go in again tomorrow night.
I have thrown a basketball challenge down to RKay but it might be a while until/or if he gets involved as I know he has a lot of commitments coming up.
My two double’s in an attempt to kick the thread off will be

NY Knicks v WAS Wizards over 57.5 points 1st Quarter @ 20-23
MIA Heat v MIL Bucks over 56.5 points 1st Quarter @ 10-11

CLE Cavaliers +1 to beat ATL Hawks @ 10-11
HOU Rockets v GS Warriors under 59.5 points 1st Quarter @ 20/21

The selections for the competition will be as follows

Warriors -10.5 to beat the Rockets @ 10-11 (Basketball)
CLE Cavaliers +1 to beat ATL Hawks @ 10-11 (Basketball)

Hi
Kitty Galore placed third but Joes Turn pulled up so we dropped a point on the day. 🙁
There is nothing for today but there are a few possibilities for tomorrow. 🙂

Hi Suds
Thanks for joining in again and best of luck, I have noticed that Gatland has made some wholesale changes this weekend. With this bet they only need to have one decent half which is usually the second but either will do. 🙂

[Mike]

Hi
We have no non runners in the 4.15 so will stick with the original bet there. However I have just noticed that our mate Kittyy Galore is running in the 3.05 at Thurles and as we love a front runner we will take the 12-1 currently on offer.
Kitty Galore is always a risky punt as she will go off like a train and usually get reeled in late on but she has slipped down to reasonable mark and is worth a punt today.

[Mike]

Hi
We have a couple of options over at Thurles today which are as follows
4.15 Joes Turn 66-1 but we will take the 20-1 betting without Sir Argus and Franciscan Rock.
We have a back up option in the same race which is Monza Man 150-1 (available at 40-1 on the above terms) but we will wait and see if any non runners are taken out before considering a wager here.

Hi
We only got the two results this week namely the Golf Adam Scott to beat Rickie Fowler and Arsenal to beat Aston Villa in the football. This means along with the lotto ticket losing the competition ended in a draw with neither team getting a return. 🙁 We will however try again this weekend. 🙂

Hi
That was a funny old day Spyglass Hill led from the off, right up until two fences out where he ran out steam. Leading Flame also faded late on, but the rank outsider Michaels Magic who went off at 250-1 actually finished 8th and made us a decent +6 point return. Obviously we only picked up +2 points on the day, but it does to a degree make amends for yesterday. This leaves us +5 points up for the month with two weeks to go.

[Mike]

Hi
Apologies for late update but we were strugging to get any each way extra prices on the 3.10 but have eventually managed to get the following options with bet365.
Michael’s Magic 250-1 but taken at 35-1 for 10 places
Leading Flame 100-1 but taken at 25-1 for 10 places

[Mike]

Hi
Kanzino did not jump well and dropped us a few points yesterday but we will keep him in the to follow list as he will get better. As for today we will take a punt over at Punchestown.
3.45 Spyglass Hill @ 40-1 for 5 places.

We will be looking at Michaels Magic 200-1 and Leading Flame 100-1 in the 3.10 but will have to wait for the extra markets to be published.

[Mike]

Hi
Shiskin and I like To Move It were both good winners for the thread today and have boosted several of the lines. We will update the thread next week when we are sure there are no more entries declared before the festival.  🙂

[Mike]

Hi
We have a couple of runners from our Ten To Follow competition going today but we will throw one in here as well.
Gowran Park 1.42 Kanzino 100-1 but we will go 20-1 for 10 places and 26-1 for 9 places

[Mike]

Hi
With the first matches having started these were the final selections

Ospreys to beat Munster with an 18 point headstart @ 1-1
Adam Scott (Golf) to beat Rickie Fowler in round 2 @ 4-5
Team LeBron (Basketball) to win the classic at 4-5
Haut En Couleurs to win the 3.27 at Gowran Park @ 1-1
Arsenal to beat Aston Villa +Both teams to score @ 3-1
Man United to beat Leicester +Both teams to score @ 2-1

We were short of bets and sports this weekend so the wagers look a little tight but such is life.

The lottery numbers are as follows 4,5,7,31,37 and 47 the ticket has been purchased.  🙂

[Mike]

Hi
Miljessa and Alo’s Vision 6th and 8th respectively so made a nice return but Special Protector could only manage 10th and we needed 9th. 🙁 This means we only made a +3 point profit at the end of the day but a profit is always welcome and takes us up to a +7 point profit for the month.  🙂

We have nothing on offer for tomorrow but will be back at the weekend.

[Mike]

Hi
For those waiting for the extra market updates they are as follows
1.05 Smiths Sister 150-1 (No Bet)
1.05 Miljess 50-1 17-1 for 9 places
1.05 Alo’s Vision 66-1 18-1 for 9 places
1.40 Special Protector 100-1 taken at 23-1 for 9 places
1.40 Strong Whisper 200-1 (No Bet)
We have taken the three highlighted options for the thread and passed on two of them which is probabaly a fatal mistake, but such is life.
