Hi
Go Large never really got going and pulled up before getting involved, so will be bypassed for now. 🙁
Kilashee led most of the way round but kept jumping left which eventually took its toll and she was swamped approaching the final fence and eventually finished 6th. I Don’t Get It however took a massive early lead and was still in contention at the final fence but faded into a place. This means although we got a return we still dropped a couple of points on the day. 🙁
We have nothing for tomorrow except the golf wager at present on the Other Sports thread but we do have a couple of meetings to get our teeth into on Friday. 🙂

Hi
We will be taking a punt at the following selections at Sligo tomorrow
5.55 Kilashee @ 16-1 for 4 places
Kilashee has dropped to winning mark is stepping back to her best trip and looks overpriced.
7.00 Go Large 50-1 but we will take the 23-1 for 7 places
Go Large is capable enough to win a weak race someday but mid division or better looks the bet for tomorrow.
8.00 I Don’t Get It @ 14-1 for 4 places
I Don’t Get It had been raced to a standstill of late,  but now having been give a short break is usually competitive and could get involved at a decent price.

Hi
Whilst I just know I am going to regret this as we are only waiting for Palace to get one shot on target and one corner to complete both bets (against a ten man Liverpool) but if we cash out now we can grab a +30.17 point profit. This would turn the thread from a small deficit to a decent profit and we just have to take the offer. 🙁

[Mike]

Hi
We have a cash out option on both bets at half time which would put us back in profit for the thread. But as (incredibly) it is Crystal Palace that are leading we will run with the bets as they stand for at least the first part of the second half.
I really don’t get the way the games are going lately, but it is enjoyable to watch.  🙂

Hi
I have been ploughing through the markets for tonights Liverpool v Crystal Palace game and can see a standout bet which we just have to take on.
1+ shot on target each team in each half, each team 1+ corners in each half and each team 10+ booking pts @ 11/2
We will bypass the usual long shot bet bet as corner kicks will be hard to come by but how about this one with sky bet.
Diaz & Zaha each 2+ shots on target, each team 3+ corners and each team 20+ booking pts @ 150/1
We will need the game to get naughty but Zaha has a short fuse and a booking while celebrating might help and a sending off late on either way would not go amiss.

Hi
Cracklinrose was placed and although Mister Bells lost we all but broke even on the day. There is nothing for me until Wednesday at the earliest this week so the thread may go on the quiet side for a few days but we will be back. 🙂

[Mike]

Hi
We will be back in action over at Tramore tomorrow with the following selections.

3.25 Cracklinrose @ 14-1 for 4 places
4.35 Mister Bells @ 20-1 for 4 places

Hi Rob
Thanks for the kind words but as you know you need a little luck along the way and it never lasts. 🙁
You have certainly put up a cracker last night with Emperor Spirit as he has started to be heavily backed this morning and is as now as low as 13-2 at present.  🙂
I believe you have a nailed on place in your selection but I hope I can sneak a win with Summerghand in the same race, as I have already used it as my Beat The Lotto (£) selection. Boy I am going to look silly if your selection beats mine but it is too late to change it now.
I have no Irish NH Racing on today but hope to return with a selection or two tomorrow. ?

Hi
That was a good day at the office the thread bets as Let Her Flow placed at an SP of 9-1 which wiped its nose. Alex D lost but ran well and Doyen Ta Win got the elusive 7th place and between the two wagers made a tidy little +13.80 point profit.
Add in the fact that of the other two runners mentioned last night, South East Star was a non runner but Elegant Lass won at 28-1 and it was a day to remember. 🙂
I do not have much on for Tramore tomorrow as I have been out tonight but I will be looking at the following
8.05 Wee Monarch 100-1 However 28-1 for 6 places looks the call tonight.

[Mike]

Hi
Doyen Ta Win we have taken at 29-1 for 8 places (40-1 for 7 places is available if you feel brave). Alex D we have taken at 40-1 in the hope we can grab a place in a weak 8 runner race.

[Mike]

Hi
We will have a little dabble at Tramore tomorrow where we are spoilt for choice.
5.30 Elegant Lass 9-1
6.30 South East Star 25-1
6.30 Doyen Ta Win 100-1
7.00 Alex D 25-1 4 places
8.00 Let Her Flow @ 13-2 for 5 places
Elegant Lass is up against it, as is South East Star and unless extra places become availble we will bypass those two. Doyen Ta Win we will have a stab at but only in the extra markets and we will be looking for 7 places. Alex D could be anything and although the rag in the field I will be looking to take a piece of the 25-1 for 4 places assuming all 8 runners stand there ground. This leaves us tonight with Let Her Flow who looks the best bet of the day at 13-2 for 5 places and will be the first bet.

[Mike]

Hi
I thought I had pushed my luck with those two but such is life. Whip Whittiker placed fifth so grabbed a small reward but Wille Bob having been sixth all the way round faded on the run in. This means we lost both bets there so ended up -1.20 points on the day.
There is nothing on for the next few days, but I will be back on here probably by Friday.  🙂

[Mike]

Hi
This run has to come to an end soon and with another two rank outsiders at Ballinrobe tomorrow we may just be pushing our luck. But here goes with selections.
6.25 Willie Bob 50-1 but we will take the 21-1 for 7 places and the 28-1 for 6 places
7.25 Whip Whitaker 50-1 but we will take the 21-1 for 5 places

Hi
We could not get a bet down for the Beat The Lotto (£) Thread due to an account restriction but of the three selected last night our main bet Harel Du Marais was placed third at 40-1 but obviously we had only taken the 25-1 betting without the favourite Nikini (which duly won). Unfortunately one other came between us a win bet but we still picked another +4 points on the race. Three Loud Knocks never got near the price required and Fill The Tank lost but still left with a small +2 point profit on the day.
I have nothing of note tonight as I am still trying to sort out the issue with my accounts but hopefully will sort a wager out for tomorrow morning.

[Mike]

Hi
Not a bad run by Oco John taken at 25-1 and placing 3rd in a decent finish. This gives us another profitable day albeit only +4 points but every little counts. This now puts us a tidy +28.62 points up for the month and as set us us off on a decent little run. 🙂
As for tomorrow we have a problem Houston as we over at Kilbeggan and I can only see outsiders (as usual) and I need a win bet for the Beat The Lotto (£) thread.
My early thoughts are with the following but they were all meant to be extra option bets so an update in the morning would be best. Haral Du Marais is the likely thread bet but @ 25-1 without the favourite.
5.20 Haral Du Marais 33-1
6.55 Three Loud Knocks 200-1 but we will only take 75-1 for 5 places if it becomes available.
7.55 Fill The Tank @ 22-1 for 4 places
Haral Du Marais is one we had tried to back a few days ago and remains in our crosshairs but this looks a tougher race. Three Loud Knocks has been racing soley over PTP and chase races but could be anything over hurdles. The price reflects the quality of opposition and he should finish tailed off in last but he has done the distance and has finished mid division against similar chase opposition a while back. Fill The Tank is due a decent race is on a decent mark and looks overpriced.
