Hi
Both of the horses placed today but unfortunately we can only count Paloman for the site as I was busy trying to plaster a wall 🙁 and forgot to post the second one before the off. 🙁
We did get both for the main “Winningpost” thread so at least it was not a double disappointment. 🙂
However we had a +6 point return today so we are now up to +21.45 and the next bet will have to be a minimum of 2 points each way or 4 points win as we are sticking to the “Rolling Maul” wager.

Hi
Both Paloman and Bossofthebrownies placed today which got us nicely back on track with a +5.90 point profit on the day. There is nothing now until Thursday so hopefully see you then 🙂

Hi
Pinion Jay fluffed his lines but we will try our luck over at Punchestown tomorrow
12.55 Palamon 50-1 but we will go with 15-1 for 10 places
2.55 Bossofthebrownies 100-1 but we will go with 30-1 for 6 places

[Mike]

Hi
Lake Manzalah let the side down by hitting three out and losing momentum but will still be one to follow.
We will go over to Punchestown tomorrow where we hope to get back on track as we are now only +18.45
12.55 Palamon 50-1 but we will go with 15-1 for 10 places
As we lost the last bet 1.5 each way will again be the stakes today.
2.55 Bossofthebrownies 100-1 is of interest at 30-1 for 6 places but we will check out the non runners and early markets etc whilst we ponder this one.

Hi
“Midfield, in touch with leaders when mistake 3 out, weakened before 2 out”. ! That was the Racing Post write up on Lake Manzaleh which just about summed up the day.
We will try just the one tomorrow which is Pinion Jay @ 12-1 for 4 places in the 1.22 at Fairyhouse.

[Mike]

Hi
We are going to throw in a cheeky each way double over at Naas today which is as follows
2.12 Howdoyoulikeherathome 16-1 but we have taken 11-2 betting without both Tullyhill and Lightkeeper
2.42 The Long Lad @ 20-1 for 5 places
You can get 6 places @ 16-1 with Sky for The Long Lad but we needed to go with the bet365 price so as to obtain the double.

[Mike]

Hi
Well we did not start with a bang but I will settle for a profit and a win in the first bet of 2024 the results were as follows. And the return was +3.82 points which means we are now +1.82 up for 2024.

UTA Jazz +14 to beat Bos Celtics @ 10-11 (Lost)
NY Knicks +6 to beat PHI 76ers @ 10-11 (Won)
LA Clippers to beat NO Pelicans @ 20-21 (Won)
Lions +8 to beat Sharks @ 1-1 (Won)
Cork 12.47 Flamborough @ 2-1 (Won)
Newcastle to beat Sunderland + BTTS @ 9-4 (Lost)

This weeks lottery numbers are the usual 4,7,16,23,31 and 50 (Lost)

Remember the competition is free for members that are active (posting tips) and all you have to do is post one tip for any sport covered by bet365 that can be used in a multiple wager. The tips must be posted on here by 9pm Friday night and be for a bet happening over that weekend. 🙂

Hi
Sorry about that Suds yours was in the top three all the way round but faded on the run in and we fought out eight place. However I think we are both in agreement with Lake Manzaleh in the 2.12 at Naas tomorrow. 🙂
Ladbrokes and several other firms are offering 66-1 for 3 places yet bet365 are going 66-1 for 9 places. ?
Having picked up +4.2 points today I will go in with 45-1 for 10 places and 66-1 for 9 places on this one.

[Mike]

Hi
We have one over at Naas tomorrow for which we will going straight in tonight as bet365 are offering a ridiculous price compared to the other bookmakers.
2.12 Lake Manzaleh 250-1 but we have taken 1.5 points each way 45-1 for 10 places. The 1.5 points is the increase in stakes required for the “Rolling Maul” bet.
All the other bookmakers are offering between 66-1 and 80-1 for 3 places. This is one again taken from our database of Irish hurdlers and although having shown nothing so far and having first run for new yard we do think this is one to follow.

[Mike]

Hi
We are still tidying the site up but are nearly there (honest) 🙂
But just to keep the threads going Suds and I have a minor difference of opinion in the 2.45 at Clonmel today where we are looking for one of us to sneak 8th place.
I am going with The Lucky Lobster 150-1 but I have taken the 26-1 for 8 places
Over to you Suds. 🙂

Hi
I have left a lot of this thread active as it has gone a long way to showing you that the “Rolling Maul” is possibly one of the only logical ways to try and get a “Dream punt” home. 🙂
I am sure we will all be giving this a go in 2024 and I will be using the “Rolling Maul” principle on both of my new threads Mike’s Retirement Plan and Mike’s Pension Pot . Now there maybe several ways to play this style of bet out either by splitting your bet or just increasing your momentum by gradually increasing your stakes. It will be interesting to see how far someone can take it. 🙂
Thanks go out to Suds(Clarence), Perry(RKay), Joe(JoeH) for joining in and taking the idea forward.:)

Hi
For those who are waiting for the results from our last post unfortunately a heavy fog descended on Naas and the racing was abandoned after the first race. 🙁 We hope weather permitting (they are now forecasting snow) we will back on Thursday. 🙂

Hi
“This website was my retirement plan when I started it just over five years and I will be retiring at the end of the month. 🙂 This is now a perfect time for me to clean up the site and re-vamp it so quite a few of the old threads may disappear be archived or be almagamated into new ones. If there are any members past or present who wish any specific threads to remain please let me know asap”
We have cleaned up most of the threads today with the exception of the main Winningposts thread which will take a while. 🙁

[Mike]

Hi
Well that went better than expected with all three bets coming in which were as follows
12.12 Cork The Dawn 29-1 for 10 places getting a return of +6.80 Profit +4.80
12.12 Cork The Dawn 35-1 for 9 places which got a return of +8 Profit +6
1.22 Cork Glen Kiln 33-4 for 5 places returning +2.65 Profit of +0.65
The Dawn ran on into sixth and although we had only taken him for nine and ten places we need to protect our bank when starting a new enterprise and are happy to have got off to a flyer. 🙂
This means are initial bank of 10 points now stands at 21.45 after the first day. 🙂
Tomorrow we head over to Naas to see if we can continue the run
2.35 Lake Manzaleh 250-1 but we will take the 35-1 for 10 places
Lake Manzaleh is another taken from our database but this is a trickier race so we will stick with the 1 point each way in the extra markets for tonight, but will keep an eye on any price movements during the morning.
