Hi Rob
Sorry 🤦 I was convinced I had added it to my tracker. I will make sure it goes on the tracker again now. Best of luck 👍 if Final Demand slips up thats a heck of a price.

Hi
With Limerick being abandoned it has been a bit quiet week for me and then deciding that Blow Wind Blow on Thursday was too short a price (as it was only from my bet builder list) it turned out to be a grave mistake as he romped home.
But we do have a to follow horse running today at Leopardstown today so it will be 1 point each way on….

Carrried With Love in the 12.40 @ 12-1 for 5 places (BOG attached)

Hi Suds
I have placed £4.25 on Bowensonfire @ 13-2 without both I Started A Joke & A Dream To Share best of luck.

Hi
With Leopardstown being abandoned (but rescheduled for Monday) it brought an abrupt end to this months competition but will make for a very interesting start to February with everybody likely to be involved in the first few days.
As for this month it’s a win for Steve (Hopefull) with 4 wins so a £5 free bet goes his way. Unfortunately it has been decide despite several hints it has been over 100 days since Joe contacted the site so although winning this month the rules are that the competitions are for active members only (with a 90 day rule in place). Wherever he is posting now we wish him well.
I will print the overall standings later as although it will not effect the standings I have still have Kala Conti going today.

[Mike]

Hi
Here we go again “Eyes down for a Full House”

Leopardstown 1.15 Doctor Steinburg @ 6-4
Sandown 2.40 Kitzbuhel @ 4-5
Leopardstown 2.55 Kargesse @ 7-4
Leopardstown 3.30 Spindleberry w/o Galopin Des Champs @ 9-2
Ospreys -7 to beat Scarlets @ 10-11
Crystal Palace to win or Draw against Nottingham Forest @ 8-11

The lottery numbers will be 4,7,16,23,26 & 50.

Hi Andy
If I were making a book on it you would be joint favourite to win this month 🤣 Thanks for posting it’s nice to know you are still following the threads. 👍

Hi
This weekend will see another tight finish for the top spot with the following declared to run.

Leopardstown 1.15 Love Me Tender +12 bonus (Rob, Andy, Joe & Moi)
Sandown 2.40 Kala Conti +15 bonus (Moi)
Leopardstown 2.55 Romeo Coolio +15 bonus (Suds)
Leopardstown 3.30 Galopin Des Champs +20 bonus (Steve & Andy)
Leopardstown 3.30 Gaelic Warrior +20 bonus (Rob, Andy & Joe)
Leopardstown 3.30 Fact To File +20 bonus (Mgame)
Leopardstown 3.30 Inothewayurthinkin +20 bonus (Steve)

Mathematically Andy, Steve, Joe or Mgame could win it and it looks likely to boil down to the 3.30 so once again it will be the last race on the last day of the month which decides it. Best of luck to all those involved and fair warning to those participating please at least be seen to make contact on the site as this is only open to active members.

Hi
I am beginning to feel like an ageing boxer who is making a comeback and stepping up a division in the weights. I am basically getting beaten up on this new thread as although today’s horses finished 7th and 8th at no time did they ever threaten to do anything.
This dropped me 4 points today and puts me on -11.40 at the moment.
I have two going tomorrow over at Limerick but the bet builder on both for 6 places looks likely to be the only option unless I can get a bet without both favorite/s.

2.49 Tiger Twins 18-1
2.49 Nukie’s Artic 200-1
nb
Just taken 1/2 point on Nukies Artic at 45-1 without both dEstruval & Spectaculaur

Hi Rob
Thanks for that I have started dabbling and that has proved extremely helpful. I am somewhat at odds with there ‘Tail End Charlies’ finishing times but I am still playing with those factors and adjusting the weights etc. Steve has come up with very similar times to there’s which are marginally different to mine.
The sectionals will certainly help to identify the front runners which is again going to help with any later adjustments.
As for the ‘Heavy’ going yesterday it has always been something that has been detrimental to my betting schemes/threads and something I am determined to cross off my bucket list along with the exchange markets. ?

[Mike]

Hi
I will go in with the usual 1 point win bet builder on both Dearg Mor and The Dancen Kid both for top a 5 finish @ 17-2.
Also as The Dancen Kid has gone out to 16-1. I will also go 1/2 point each way without both Kobalt St George & Ellies Rock @ 15-2.
It’s risky as both are drifting like barges but it’s early days and you really have to go with the flow on new ideas.

[Mike]

Hi
We have two going tomorrow over at Punchestown and I will be looking for a small bet builder when the markets are available but until then we have one bet for tonight.
3.40 Dearg Mor 25-1 but we will go in at 1 point each way @ 23-2 for 5 places
3.40 The Dancen Kid 11-1
The second horse is looking a little high in the weights but we will reassess the option again tomorrow.

Hi
As the games kick off I will start the thread off with an example of a football ante post bet. Last Friday the relegation battle was all but done and dusted according to the old enemy. But being a life long hammers fan I decided to take a punt against them bring relegated.
The outstanding price to me was Crystal Palace at 28-1 as the club is in turmoil with players wanting to leave, the manager has fallen out with the board etc etc.
As it stands the 20-1 this morning still looks tempting and if they lose today they play Nottingham Forest next which could be a big nail in the coffin for them and a get out jail card for West Ham should they not take all three points.

[Mike]

Hi Rob
Thanks I will look into that one I had never really considered sectional timing and it will be another conundrum to ponder. ? However whilst working on the idea another “Baldrick” occurred to me regarding a different factor, which is as you know I always avoid betting on Heavy ground due to the strange results that occur.
With this in mind I am looking at trying out the idea in the 2.25 at Naas today involving the following for top 7 albeit the following list does require an “Indy” (leap of faith).
Mystic Malina 12-1
Justatan 18-1
Granville Street 50-1

[Mike]

Hi
Unlucky for some today as it looks like Sir Gino will be out for the season but it could have been so much worse. However with The New Lion winning that gave Steve, Andy, Rob and Joe +17.25 points each and as we head towards the final weekend the January leader board looks like this with all still to play for.
Joe +39.74
Steve +35.72
Rob +31.49
Andy +29.60
Doctor Du Mesnil runs on Monday for Suds and Mgame which could help Mgame currently on +21 for the month get back in the mix.
The Grey Dawning fluffed his lines two out which did not help Suds in the cash competition but Sudsie stills heads that on +9.50.
