Hi
We are running out of options for bets on this thread but here are this weeks lost causes
Northampton +14.5 to beat Leinster @ 10-11
LA Clippers v DAL Mavericks over 207.5 @ 10-11
CLE Cavaliers +3.5 to beat ORL Magic @ 10-11
Burnley Win or Draw against Newcastle @ 4-5
Aston Villa to beat Brighton @ 29-20
Jake Knapp to win the CJ Cup Byron Nelson @ 17-4
The acca comes to 160-1 and the trebles look reasonable this week so fingers crossed. 🙂
The lottery ticket numbers will be 4,7,16,23,31 and 50 as usual.

Hi
Unfortunately are one fancy for the day Lark In The Morning has become a non runner so this leaves us without a wager for the day. 🙁 Therefore we have gone in with a quick sneaky each way double instead
Punchestown 6.35 Jetara @ 7-2 without Ballyburn
Punchestown 7.05 Ascending @ 3-1 without Anotherway
We also appear to have picked up a following from Ireland, Germany, Spain, Italy and China if any of our new followers are wondering about the site, just sign up and we will see what we can do to help. 🙂

Hi
I live for weeks like this as after Custers Mistake won at 33-1 (along with an explanation) last week we now follow up with a write up and a 20-1 winner today with Pigeon House. 🙂 Nara and Me Wee Bonnie Lass both placed which gave us a +25.40 point profit on the day. We said we would like to end the season with a bang and we could not have asked for more. 🙂
3.40 Pigeon House @ 20-1 Won
3.40 Nara @ 9-1 Placed
6.35 Popova @ 12-1 Lost
7.05 Me Wee Bonnie Lass @ 18-1 Placed
We do not really have anything for tomorrow but when your on a roll you have to try something. In the 7.05 at Punchestown tomorrow we have our eye on Lark In The Morning but at 11-4 it is bit short to put up. But we will throw him up as the win part of a straight forecast with Ascending currently at 11-1 to follow the selection home.

Hi Suds
Pigeon House is shortening up real fast and is now 16-1 we missed the 28-1 but took a bit of 20-1 early doors (just in case). Paggane was on the shorlist but there are so many in with a shout in these end of season big handicaps that its a nightmare deciding which one to go for. ? We could have put up half a dozen for each race but its not the way we fly on here. Just go to the tipping sites for there subscription tips and see the difference. We looked at a well known racing paper/website this morning for the late non runners only to see the five shortest priced favourites (three were odds on) put up as tips. ?? Yes they might (or should) all win but a tip. ?
Best of luck and thanks for the heads up on yesterdays winner. 🙂

Hi
That went reasonably well we had a +32.40 profit from our 9-1 winner Harsh but obviously dropped 10 points on the other wagers but a +22.40 profit is a nice touch. 🙂 This now leaves us with a new balance of +127.45 but the next bet will have to be a minimum 17 point bet on the day.

[Mike]

Hi
We had a cracking start today with a 9-1 winner in Harsh and had high hopes for the other two (well one of the other two…lol). But the day went downhill, but if you had asked me if I would have settled for a 9-1 winner at the start of the day I would have loved the idea. We ended up with a +6.80 point profit on the day which I am more than happy with. 🙂
As for tomorrow we are going back to Punchestown for the following options
3.40 Nara @ 9-1 for 6 places
3.40 Pigeon House 28-1
6.35 Popova @ 12-1 for 6 places
7.05 Me Wee Bonnie Lass @ 18-1 for 4 places
We will be looking at Pigeon House in the extra markets as it is a very rare to see Nico De Boinville ride for anyone other than Nicky Henderson. Pigeon House is his only ride of the day other than Hendersons Chantry House. ?

Hi
We have managed to get 100-1 for 4 places on Zulu Mike with betfair but this is not BOG (best odds guaranteed) but he is unlikely to get any bigger in price. 🙂 We have taken the more serious option of 11-1 for 7 places on the Mike’s Retirement Plan thread.

[Mike]

Hi
We have had a look and decided to go in with all three but we have taken a safer approach as it is my pension we are talking about here. 🙂
2.30 Harsh @ 9-1 for 6 places (3 points each way)
3.05 Aero’s Luck @ 17-2 3 places but betting without Blizzard Of Oz and Answer To Kayf (3 points each way)
3.40 Zulu Mike now 100-1 but we have taken 11-1 for 7 places (1 point each way)
We have also gone with a 1 point each way double on Harsh and Aero’s Luck which takes us up to our 16 point wager for the day. 🙂

[Mike]

Hi
I will be looking at another punt on here this week over at Punchestown and if we can get an edge I will be looking at the selections from todays Winning Post Tips thread but will be splitting the bet again as we are now on the 16 point option.

[Mike]

Hi
Not to bad today as we got both Al Kalia and Nusret placed and it has inspired me to go back to Punchestown tomorrow with a silly one. 🙂
2.30 Harsh @ 9-1 for 6 places
3.05 Aero’s Luck @ 14-1 for 4 places
3.40 Zulu Mike @ 66-1 for 4 places
We may well take the more serious option of 14-1 for 6 places on Zulu Mike but we just had to have a punt with this one on the exchanges as well.

[Mike]

Hi Suds
It,s a good way to look at it all of us had a dodgy weekend with the accumulator threads Joe’s and your threads went south and the beat the lotto bit the dust. 🙁 But as long as your banker bets or occasional accumulators are covering your losses (which they have been so far) its ok. 🙂
But thats just the way acca’s go you have to remember that what we are trying to do is at best risky and in reality downright silly but if you are having fun thats the real point. I have always said on this site it’s for fun with a serious side and in the five plus years the site has been going we have not lost money. 🙂

[Mike]

Hi
After a couple of big priced winners in the last post you fear the worst, but we will try the following over at Punchestown tomorrow.
3.05 Al Kalia @ 16-1 for 7 places (skybet)
4.15 Nusret @ 16-1 for 6 places + a 25% bonus (bet365) effectively 20-1
Lets hope for a another day in the sun before the season ends. 🙂

[Mike]

Hi
I knew we had this coming after so many good results over the last three or four weeks and we got creamed at the weekend. Admittedley and in fairness to ourselves it was only a point or a corner either way but as we got no returns and only the one winner it was not a good day. However the lottery lost as well, so for the competition it was a no score draw…lol.
On the bright side for those that follow the threads they will know we had a cracking day on the Winning Post Tips thread with a couple of big priced winners, so we are still happy little bunnies when it comes down to it.  🙂

[Mike]

Hi Boys and Girls
Thanks for the messages, it’s always nice to get a heads up when something goes right. It can be a thankless task when so many people log in to view the site 🙂 but so few people join in or comment. 🙁
Thanks again and we will be looking at the Punchestown festival later today. 🙂

[Mike]

Hi G (Mgame)
You must be a lucky charm…lol. We cleared a tidy +54.40 point profit yesterday reminds me of the good old days. 🙂 Strangely I have been chatting with another member about dabbling with the early Cheltenham wagers but it would for obvious reasons go under the Ridiculous Ideas for 2024 thread.
Thanks for the heads up (always appreciated) 🙂
