Hi
Well the idea of ending with a bang went south as Zulu Mike is a non runner but we  are determined with the NH racing winding down to have a bash today, so we are putting up  our next best in the 6.10.
Jhentong Enki 18-1 but at 15-2 betting without both Gaucher and Brave Fortune.

Hi
Obviously we decided to stick with just the two from last night which may have been a mistake, but such is life as there were a few decent each way extra prices around today.
Early arrival came second which means we more or less wiped our nose on the day but I will settle for that after yesterday.
We will be looking in depth at the 6.10 at Kilbeggan for our Ridiculous Ideas for 2024 thread but for now we will go with the following two.
6.10 Zulu Mike 50-1
6.45 Futurum Regem @ 14-1 for 4 places (16-1 for 3 places is available)

We will wait for the extra markets in the 6.10 before committing on Zulu Mike.

Hi
Well after the lord mayors show comes the dung cart and that was today. I have just seen Aussie Warrior turn the last bend in second and drop back through the field like a stone. This was closely followed by Dark Image fading into sixth place when we needed fifth. 🙁
As for tomorrow we will look at the following over at Clonmel
5.30 Mount Anglesby 9-1 looks the best each way shout but Ayiko 3-1 looks a bit useful.
7.00 Early Arrival @ 14-1 for 5 places
7.00 Boskill Borden 20-1
8.00 Answering @ 10-1 for 4 places
8.00 Dream Escape 40-1
The season has more or less restarted and the options are tricky now the ground has changed it brings out a whole new raft of runners. But we will try and figure some way of keeping the thread active and profitable. We will update the thread tomorrow but after Friday the racing dies off quite a bit and we would like to finish on a high.

Hi Suds
Thanks for giving it a try and would you believe this thread will have been running for about six months since you started it. 🙂 I will leave it up to you how you finish the last two weekends off. The Football, Rugby and NH racing season all wind up or run down at the same time in May and this leaves a huge void on the site.
This was great when I was working as I needed the time in the garden etc however I will be looking at other options off season so let me know if you are interested in continuing the rugby topic in some form or other.

Hi
There have been quite a few non runners which have profoundly effected the markets so here is a full update.
5.30 Burren Breeze (100-1) Now 33-1 we have taken 10-1 for 6 places
5.30 The Blaggard 100-1 Now 50-1 we have taken 23-2 for 7 places
5.30 Uhavemeinstitches 33-1 Non Runner
6.30 Aussie Warrior @ 33-1 We have gone with 20-1 betting without both Morepowertoya and Someone’s Wish
7.00 Dark Image @ 20-1 for 5 places

[Mike]

Hi
We are going to be looking to have a dabble with some of the following over at Tipperary tomorrow
5.30 Burren Breeze 100-1
5.30 The Blaggard 100-1
5.30 Uhavemeinstitches 33-1
The first race will be totally dependent on the extra markets as the favourite look the real deal on paper
6.30 Aussie Warrior @ 33-1
7.00 Dark Image @ 20-1 for 5 places
We could be tempted by Aussie Warrior at tonight’s price but would prefer to wait to see if we can bet without the favourite/s and will check back in the morning with an update.

[Mike]

Hi
Not to shabby a day today even if I even if I do say so myself
5.10 Safran Et Bleu 100-1 but we have taken 14-1 for 6 places Placed
5.40 One Big Boum 66-1 but we have gone 24-1 for 4 places Placed
6.10 Mercury Mission @ 20-1 for 5 places Placed
No big wins but a tidy little +8.60 point profit on the day makes Mike a happy boy 🙂
Also it’s a nice way to go into a days break as there is no Irish NH racing tomorrow so I get to play in the garden. 🙂

[Mike]

Hi
Another mixed bag of results and a lot of non runners today. Tic Tac Toe got the day to off a blinder grabbing 4th at 50-1 but as we had taken the extra price we only got the place on 33-1. By Your Side lost and Set Point got 5th we needed fourth again. 🙁
This means we ended up +1.60 on the day which is not great but better than a loss. 🙂
We head back to Killarney again tomorrow for the following which are all taken on tonight.
5.10 Safran Et Bleu 100-1 but we have taken 14-1 for 6 places
5.40 One Big Boum 66-1 but we have gone 24-1 for 4 places
6.10 Mercury Mission @ 20-1 for 5 places

[Mike]

Hi
Just a quick early heads up Tic Tac Toe and Set Point have started to move in price overnight and we have gone in at 33-1 with Tic Tac Toe and 10-1 with Set point for 4 places. This is not ideal as we would have liked an extra place or bet without the favourite/s last night. We have only decided to go in as after Jolie Jewel yesterday…. we feel lucky.  🙂

[Mike]

Hi
Smug does not even come close to how we feel at the moment 🙂 Now although we only put up Jolie Jewel at 8-1 for the site it does not mean we did not have a great day at the office. 🙂
As for the site bets they ended up just +4 points up with Jolie Jewel’s win as the other three lost. Had we taken either of last nights other selections in the first race they would have placed 🙁
However the claim to fame was that Jolie Jewel actually won at 50-1 so even if as some of us had done taken the 33-1 with BOG (best odds guaranteed) it was a better day than expected. 🙂
As for tomorrow we head over to Killarney for the following mixed bag of tricks
1.00 Tic Tac Toe 100-1
1.00 Dylans Choice 200-1
1.35 One Big Boum 33-1
1.35 Jocker Du Moulin 40-1
2.45 By Your Side 20-1 but we gone in at 13-1 for 5 places
2.45 Set Point 20-1
We will be looking for the extra markets again for most of these if we take them on and will update the thread tomorrow

[Mike]

Hi
Usual disappointment in the prices of the each way extra markets of late but we will go with the following options over at Cork today.
2.15 Ryhme And Thyme 33-1 but we have gone with 35-4 for 8 places
3.25 Jolie Jewel 33-1 but 8-1 for 7 places
3.55 Gordons Aura @ 14-1 for 6 places
5.05 Aghmorough Bridge 33-1 but we have gone with 12-1 for 9 places

[Mike]

Hi
Mixed batch of results yesterday the double became a single when Hardysonofdan became a late non runner. Paddy Elvis placed without the favourite/s so we wiped our nose there. The each way single on Hardysonofdan was a void bet so money back there and Inatosha unfortunately came 7th we needed 6th so a bit of wasted day but more of a disappointment for the effort put in than anything else. 🙁
We will be looking at Cork today which we slowly update during the day. It’s a lovely day outside for a bit of gardening and the markets are slow coming up this morning. Here is the first option.
2.15 Happy me 25-1
2.15 King In Love 33-1
2.15 Ryhme And Thyme 33-1
All of the above we will be looking to back without the favourite/s or preferably in the extra markets for 7 places or more.

[Mike]

Hi Suds
Not to shoddy with Wednesday’s selections we had 5 out 6 Win 🙂
NY Knicks -4.5 to beat IND Pacers @ 20-23 Won
OKC Thunder -5 to beat DAL Mavericks @ 10-11 (lost)
Real Madrid to beat Bayern Munich @ 19-20 Won
Oxford to draw or win against Peterborough @ 21-20 Won
Stormers -14.5 to beat the Dragons @ 10-11 Won
Edinburgh -25.5 to beat Zebre @ 10-11 Won
This puts us well ahead in the competition again but also gives us a few quid for a side bet. ? How about we try out the new points band idea on your Rugby thread. ? I would suggest doubles and an accumulator that would come to 15x doubles and throw in the accumulator as it comes to over 2000-1 at present odds…lol. 🙂

[Mike]

Hi Suds
We still have the last one running and are already on the next one…lol. But we just had to throw that last one in.
Just the two of us again tonight so here goes. 🙂
Ospreys +24 to beat Leinster @ 1-1
Haydock 3.15 Lark In The Morning @ 5-2
BOS Celtics v CLE Cavaliers Over 211 points in the game @ 10-11
Luton to win or Draw against West Ham @ 1-1
Crystal Palace to beat Wolves @ 11-8
Chelsea to beat Nottingham Forest @ 1-1
The lottery ticket numbers will be 4,7,16,23,31 and 50 as usual.

[Mike]

Hi
We have taken Paddy Elvis betting without Big Stage and Nouvotic @ 5-1 and Hardysonofdan betting without Going live and Gone For Tea @ 14-1 in an each way double.
We have also gone with Hardysonofdan @ 21-2 for 6 places (Little Hero is interesting at 12-1 for 6 places)
Inatosha we have gone in with at 15-1 for 6 places but for those who are looking for another “Custers Mistake” the 33-1 for 4 places still on offer is very tempting. Its just a question of whether you believe the yard has just been waiting for the ground to firm up before running him in his first handicap.
