Hi
Godblessyourosie let the side down and although being a big drifter out to 12-1 still cost us -2 points as we had backed her the night before. This put us on +8.75 then we finally had our first win with a 4yo for the thread when Sudsie put up King Of the Bronx @ 11-1 which gave us another +13.20. Add in Queen Of Seduction who placed @ 16-1 for +2.20 then Gala Marcau placing @ 15-2 for +0.5 and we ended up with a grand total of +15.45 for the weekend and a running total for thread of +24.20.
Hamsiyaan was again a non runner but before we fully update the thread we have one more going tomorrow over at Fairyhouse.

5.05 Gold Dancer @ 50-1 for 5 places but we are only looking for profit of over 10 points per runner so the prudent bet for those with weak tickers might be the 33-1 for 6 places.

Hi
The swathe of non runners more or less ruined the competition side of things but with three decent priced horses all placing and two non runners by using our standard each way doubles and an each way acca we doubled our money on the day. Add that in with King Of The Bronx coming in on the Ridiculous Ideas for 2025 thread and were more than happy with the weekends work.
We will be concentrating on our threads next week but will throw a long shot in for tomorrow at Fairyhouse because we can…lol.

4.30 Born Bright 50-1 for 5 places with Hills or 33-1 for 6 places with Skybet

Hi
Mr incredible was always going to be an iffy punt but I am convinced one day he will turn up….lol.
We have a bet tomorrow using a mixed bag of selections taken from a few of the threads which Suds and I have turned into a personal competition here are mine.

Cork 1.50 Queen Of Seduction @ 14-1 for 5 places
Fairyhouse 2.05 Aurea Fortuna @ 16-1 for 5 places
Fairyhouse 3.15 Hamsiyaan @ 15-2 for 6 places
Fairyhouse 3.50 Gala Marceau @ 15-2 for 4 places
Fairyhouse 5.00 Quai De Bourbon @ 10-1 for 6 places

Hi
Not a bad set of results today we both used the now standard each way doubles and an acca but I have to concede defeat and Suds wins. I managed to wipe my nose (more or less) with four placed but Suds had four placed and a winner for a profit.
We are both having a dabble tomorrow in a similar vein but the selections will be taken from a mixture of the other threads and the final wager will go into the standard Winning Post Tips thread.

[Mike]

Hi
Well this thread is like buses there are none in sight then they all turn up at once….lol. I also have a few for the thread which are as follows

Cork 1.50 Queen Of Seduction @ 16-1 for 5 places
Fairyhouse 3.15 Hamsiyaan @ 15-2 for 6 places
Fairyhouse 3.50 Gala Marceau @ 15-2 for 4 places

Hi Hopefull
As you know the Fairyhouse meeting upset our plans for our end of season wager as well but these things are sent to try us. As for “Blaze The Way” that’s just typical as I noticed that although you posted him on this thread and he just missed out you had an advised at 7-1 winner yesterday with John Betjeman as your selection on the Beat The Lotto (£) yesterday which if posted on here would have made all the difference. Racing is all about Coulda, Woulda, Shoulda and overall you would have been in profit on the day and your luck will change on this thread soon enough as its consistency that counts.

Hi
We might as well have a bet even though our original idea went down the river. Sudsie I believe will be posting an alternative viewpoint when I have finished posting here. (but in the same races).

Fairyhouse 1.22 Young Lucy @ 9-1 for 5 places
Cork 2.12 Cathryns Ruby @ 8-1 but without Divaboriva and Colonel Victoria
Cork 2.47 Zoffanien @ 7-1 for 5 places
Cork 3.22 Cullig @ 5-1 for 5 places
Fairyhouse 3.35 Son Of Anarchy @ 11-4 without Good Deal and Icare d’Aubrelle
Fairyhouse 4.45 Washington Parks @ 22-1 for 6 places

Hi
Unbelievable… ! As has been mentioned on numerous occasions over the last few months posts on this thread, we have been planning and scheming our end of season wager for this weekend which was going to complete tomorrow on the 20th which was the last double Irish NH fixture of the season covering all the grades of racing from Maiden Hurdles onwards.
Unfortunately Fairyhouse has been abandoned today and is unlikely to race tomorrow and if it does it will be atrocious ground. This has just put to bed our planned “Holy Grail” wager and apologies to those who were involved but such is life.

[Mike]

Hi
Here are the rest of the selections all the best to those who entered

Ospreys -2.5 to beat Cardiff @ 10-11
Fairyhouse 2.10 Kainsbourg @ 7-4
Fairyhouse 2.45 Ryehill @ 13-8
Newton Abbot 3.44 John Betjeman @ 11-2
Fairyhouse 5.05 Kalix Delabarrire @ 9-4
Justin Thomas to win the RBC Heritage @ 2-1

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

[Mike]

Hi
Apologies for lack of posts over the last few days but we had a technical issue (main computer went down) Mujeres Isla was again a non runner but we hope to have one tomorrow over at Clonmel.

4.55 Godblessyourosie @ 9-2

[Mike]

Hi
Lets see if we cannot do a little better than last week and we will throw a wild card in for tomorrow.

Bangor 1.35 Isle Of Sark @ 11-4
Nottingham Forest to beat Everton @ 11-10
Ospreys -5.5 to beat Lyon @ 10-11
Ayr 3.35 Mr Incredible @ 80-1
Bellewstown 4.25 Le Bugiste @ 15-8
Bellewstown 5.00 Coyote Spirit @ 15-8

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

Hi
Iriko placed but was not the big priced option we were looking for in the Grand National so we will go all in and put up Mr Incredible for the Scottish National tomorrow. His form reads UP-PRP and as he is carrying top weight so all the stats are against him even if he starts the race (which is fifty fifty as is he is an awkward sod). But such is life he has the ability but not the temperament but at 100-1 he might just have a going day.

[Mike]

Hi
Today was not much different to yesterday two placed one non runner and the 20-1 shot comes fifth instead of fourth which gave us a return but again no profit. It is tempting to continue with it but we are already working on our bets for the 20th so we will stop dabbling and stick with what we know. We have high hopes for our wagers on the 20th but then again I a putting up Mr Incredible at 100-1 for the Scottish National so what do I know….lol.

[Mike]

Hi
I hate days like yesterday when you have three placed second one going down to a first time up 66-1 shot then one placing fifth when you needed fourth and to cap the day your 20-1 shot is well backed all day and then runs wide all the way round and fades away…lol. It’s not the the fact it did not turn a profit but it makes you feel a tad unlucky and want to try it again. It still is too simplistic to be true but I have to go in again just in case. These are all at Ballinrobe tonight and are all reasonable each way prices so we will go with the same bet.

5.12 Holy See @ 11-4
5.47 Zoffanien @ 11-2 for 4 places
6.17 Ladium @ 20-1 for 4 places
6.47 Max Time @ 10-1 for 6 places
7.17 Love Like This @ 10-1 for 4 places

[Mike]

Hi G
Yes the top score has gone up each year and it would be nice to get a 700 plus but that would take some doing. As for the gaming line yes every year we now dedicate a line to whichever game we are currently playing…lol.
