Hi
We finally have a NH meeting in Ireland that is going to go ahead and it is at Limerick tomorrow.
We are going to take a punt at two horse having there first handicap runs and they are as follows.
2.35 Mywayorthehighway @ 25-1 for 4 places
4.55 Bossofthebus @ 25-1 for 5 places
We are obviously going in with the each way singles for the site but an each way double is tempting. 🙂

Hi
Apologies for the late update but as we are coming to the end of the competition I thought I would give a quick heads up to those who have a few runners going on this the last weekend.
Mgame has the best current line and has all the highlighted horses declared at Aintree
Line 4 Mgame Total points 2023/24 +542.53
Stage Star +22.20
Galopin Des Champs +158.11
Bravemansgame +25.70
Gerri Colombe +27.12
Monbeg Genius +2.90
Constitution Hill +27.20 (injured)
State Man +156.30
Maries Rock +23.60
JPR One +29.60
Brighterdaysahead +15.50
Gaelic Warrior +54.30
I will update the final results after the weekends racing where hopefully Mgame’s line can break the 600 point mark. 🙂 The current best line to date was Rob’s last year with +601.31 which was good but we have beaten our best points total every year to date and it would be nice to see it happen again. 🙂
Here is a list of declared runners for the weekend best of luck to all who took part and many thanks for joining in.
Il Etait Temps
Gerri Colombe
Shiskin
Corbetts Cross
Bravemansgame
Ahoy Senor
Teahupoo
Botox Has
Bob Olinger
Impaire Et Passe
Luccia
Maries Rock
Nemean Lion
Brighterdaysahead
Jonbon
Protektorat
JPR One
Last but not least our Grand National tip Mr Incredible who was put up at 40-1 a few weeks back on the Winning Post Tips page looks like he will run and if he doesn’t bite anyone and plays nicely, is still a not too shoddy 14-1 in places.  🙂

Hi
The price on Duhallow Jury had been bugging me all night so I checked my excel sheet and found a silly error which unfortunately does not effect just Duhallow Jury but also all the other runners beginning with the letter D.
I have corrected the error and here is the revised set of tissue odds.
Jeanniemacaroney 2-1
Doctor Nightingale 3-1
Lady Of The Locke 9-2
Queenofthelodge 9-1
Duhallow Jury 10-1
Drum Roll 12-1
Moonlight Mist 14-1
Avandra 16-1
Dinner At Freddys 20-1
Give Me A Smile 20-1
Duchamps Art 33-1
Her Self 100-1
Keyser Smokesy 100-1
Kp’s Ladyofknock 100-1
This has more or less doubled the odds on all the runners starting with the letter D and means we have had to adjust the market slightly on the other runners but I am confident everything else is ok. We now just have wait another 12 hours or so until the old enemy (the bookies) print there first set of odds.

Hi Joe
Double up again ?.. I do believe your beginning to enjoy this aren’t you 🙂

[Mike]

Hi
With all the bad weather and abandoned meetings it looks as though we have nothing until Thursday at the earliest this week, but it will give us a chance to look further at trying out a Baldrick on the betfair exchanges.
The Aintree Grand National meeting comes up this weekend and for those who took the hint last month on this thread Winning Post Tips where we suggested backing Mr Incredible at 40-1 NRNB it looks like he will run. He is now trading at between 12-1 and 14-1 and once the final declarations are made I think he will shorten up even further.

Hi
We had our first six fold and 20x trebles in for 2024 a few weeks back and we only missed out by a couple of corners this week which is frustrating but the trebles brought us in a tidy profit so we are on a roll here. 🙂
Ospreys -1 to beat Sale Sharks @ 10-11 (Rugby) Won
DAL Mavericks -1.5 to beat GS Warriors @ 10-11 (Basketball) Won
Kempton(AW)4.25 Notable Speech @ 8-11 (Horse Racing) Won
Akshay Bhatia to win the Valero Texas Open @ 7-5 (Golf) Won
Sutton v Stockport Over 0 goals for Sutton + over 3 corners Sutton + over 3 corners Stockport @ 9-4 (Football)
Tranmere v Walsall Over 0 goals Tranmere + Over 5 corners Tranmere + Over 3 corners Walsall @ 5-2 (Football) Won
Lets hope we can work some more magic this weekend 🙂

Hi
Absolutey gutted as apart from the Accrington v Crewe game we missed out by just a goal for Morecambe and the corners bet for Stockport which means we had 15 of the 19 predictions come in but still lost the bet. 🙁
But such is life and although we lost 19 points we still have enough left in the kitty for another bash. The bet would have to 20 points this time but we have +23.61 left so it look like sqeeky bum time as we go all in next weekend.

Hi Sudsie

Sorry, forgot to mention the lottery numbers are the same as last week 4,7,16,23,31 and 50 and remember as with Suds (Clarence) you have to be in it to win it. So if anyone else wants to join in all you have do is to be an active member on the site and post a tip plus a lucky number by Friday night 9pm which can be used that weekend.
We got off to a good start last night when the Mavericks won in the Basketball so its 1 down 5 to go. 🙂

[Mike]

Hi Suds
We had one basketball, one football and a rugby treble in last week so we wiped our nose on the day for another win.
This week we are going with the following wagers
Ospreys -1 to beat Sale Sharks @ 10-11
DAL Mavericks -1.5 to beat GS Warriors @ 10-11
Kempton(AW)4.25 Notable Speech @ 8-11
Akshay Bhatia to win the Valero Texas Open @ 7-5
Sutton v Stockport Over 0 goals for Sutton + over 3 corners Sutton + over 3 corners Stockport @ 9-4
Tranmere v Walsall Over 0 goals Tranmere + Over 5 corners Tranmere + Over 3 corners Walsall @ 5-2
The acca comes to a reasonable 170.86-1 for those looking for a long shot punt.

[Mike]

Hi
Here are tomorrows League 2 wagers and we will be going with 36x 1/2 point seven folds and a 1 point nine fold to make up our 19 point bet. 🙂

Morecambe v Doncaster Over 0 goals Morecambe + over 2 corners Doncaster @ 2-5
Sutton v Stockport Over 0 goals Sutton + over 3 corners Sutton + over 3 corners Sutton @ 11-5
Tranmere v Walsall Over 0 goals Tranmere + over 5 corners Tranmere + over 3 corners Walsall @ 5-2

Hi
Well which idiot had to say it “What could possibly go wrong” oh.. it was me 🙁 we got our first slapped arse of 2024 yesterday but we were long overdue so “Que sera sera” (whatever will be will be). There is no racing due to abandoned meetings over the next few days and we are always dangerous after a loss so it gives us time to recover… 🙂
The one issue we have is the removal of decent each way extra pricing by bet365 which has been our go to bet for the last few years and that means a rethink so it may be time to consider the “Betfair exchanges”. I would not have attempted this whilst I was working but now retired it could be perfect timing. 🙂
Expect a few Baldricks (cunning plans) over the next few weeks which may crash and burn or…:)

[Mike]

Hi
We walked away with our first slapped arse of 2024 yesterday as we could not even get one in the frame and dropped 14 points which leaves us now on +108.05 and staring a 15 point bet in the face. 🙁
However yesterdays result was not really the downside as we expect to take a few slaps during the course of a year (it is impossible not too) but the killer for us was bet365 last week drastically reducing the prices on each way extra options. This has been our main source of income for quite a while and we were forced into yesterdays standard wager. It was not a disaster as three of our selections finished within two lengths of making the frame so it was not as bad as it first looked but the loss of the each way extra option will effect the way we bet.
With the bad weather back in and the likelihood of most of the weekends Irish NH racing being abandoned it means we are scratching for a bet but will give us time to regroup. 🙂

[Mike]

Hi
We have a 13 point bet option but have used 14 points on the three mentioned last night in the Winning Post Tips thread.
3.40 Papa Barns @ 8-1 for 6 places
4.10 Gabriel Ranger @ 14-1 for 6 places
4.50 Jeronimo De L’ouch @ 9-2 for 6 places
We missed last nights early prices but its swings and roundabouts as some prices have gone up and some down. We will use them in an 1 point each way patent which totals 14 points.  🙂

Hi
In the 2.10 Touch Me Not is a big drifter in the markets and there are no decent odds on Targo Flavia (bet 365 are offering 27/4 for 10 places which is pathetic for a 200-1 shot).So we will leave those with the exception of possibly backing them without the favourites if you are desperate for a bet.
2.40 The Great Unknown has been backed and is worth a punt in mixed doubles with the three already backed last night. The issuse here is that the price is short considering there are only 3 places available.
3.10 Aero’s Luck is friendless probabaly due to the ground but again if he runs a bet without the favourite looks best.
We are happy enough with the three we put up last night and will stick with those. 🙂 BOG (best odds guaranteed) is available on most races so do not worry too much about price fluctuations.
The possible exception is we are going to try a cheeky long shot acca using Touch Me Not (without the favs), The Great Unknown and Aero’s Luck (without the fav’s) along with the three from last night. (What could possibly go wrong…lol)  🙂

[Mike]

Hi
We are quite keen on the tips in the main Winning Post Tips thread for tomorrow (over at Naas) so watch this space as we may go in again as we deem were a tad unlucky last time.
