Hi Mike,

Thanks for the link to the article, which I have previously read. I fully understand why many punters swerve chases due to an increased risk of non completions, but I have always worked on the basis that some I will win and some I will lose and as the majority of my NH profits are achieved over fences, I am inclined to accept the additional risks.

All the best.

Rob.

Hi Folks,

Jumping is the name of the game, but I wonder what would have happened had FIRE ATTACK not fallen when leading and still going well at the fifth last fence in the Galway Plate?

Shame that we will never know.

Hi Folks,

5.05 Galway (Thursday)

MY MATE MOZZIE appears to have plenty in his favour and can hopefully reward each way support at 9/1 with William Hill (7 places).

Hi Folks,

Was unable to login yesterday afternoon and as suspected my Galway Plate selection has been tipped up by Pricewise. I secured 0.5pts each way on FIRE ATTACK at 8/1 with William Hill (7 places), albeit 15/2 is now the best odds available for 7 places.

All the best.

Rob.

Hi Folks,

I was planning to offer up PIERE LAPPIN in the 6.40 at Galway tonight, but unfortunately my thoughts have coincided with PRICEWISE and whilst I still think the horse has a fair chance, there is no value in backing him around 6/1, when 14/1 was available yesterday afternoon.

I shall post my selection for the Galway Plate before 6pm tonight, as I suspect my thoughts will again coincide with PRICEWISE, so again the odds will be slashed.

Hi Mike,

Well done with DARKENED, on which I was able to secure a reasonable each way bet.

FAROUT ran well under the circumstances, but may have been done better if held up and ridden for luck.

Hi Folks,

6.40 Galway (Monday)

FAROUT 0.5 pts each way at 7/1 with Paddy Power (6 places).

All the best.

Hi Mike,

Thanks for your kind words, but I would point out that I have never thought of myself as a professional, just an enthusiastic amateur.

Please don’t sit back, as you have a real gift for finding profitable selections at big odds, which is an area that I have never mastered.

All the best.

Rob.

[Robmull]

Thanks Joe,

I hope you had a few quid each way on them both.

Overall, I picked up 4.20 pts profit on GALE FORCE MAYA and got my money back on DARK SHIFT.

My next selection will be on Monday in the QR handicap at Galway.

All the best.

Rob.

Hi Folks,

3.00 Ascot

DARK SHIFT who is a straight course Ascot specialist and is reasonably priced at 5/1 BOG with William Hill (7 places).

2.30 York

GALE FORCE MAYA who is a course and distance winner and has won each of her last 4 starts in Class 2 handicaps and is currently 7/1 BOG with William Hill (5 places).

I would suggest 0.5 pt each way singles on each.

All the best.

Rob.

Hi Mike,

Well done with your last couple of selections.

I may have a couple of selections for Saturday and will be posting some thoughts for both the Galway and Goodwood festivals next week.

All the best.

Rob.

Hi Folks,

A couple of selections for Saturday:

3.30 Newcastle – RAJINSKY 0.5 pt each way either with William Hill at 11/2 BOG for 7 places, or B365 at 6/1 BOG for 6 places – I prefer the former option.

3.45 Curragh – TUESDAY 1 pt win at 7/4 BOG with either Betfair, or Paddy Power.

All the best,

Rob.

[Robmull]

Well done Mike and Joe – a couple of nice each way returns today.

As for my performance, MAWJ couldn’t provide a return on my win only bet, finishing second, but both DISCOVERIES @ 11/1 and FRESH HOPE @ 10/1 did provide positive each way returns to provide a very modest profit of 0.1 pts.

The record for my Royal Ascot selections over the first 4 days is 13 bets, 9 win, or each way returns for a profit of just over 8 pts.

However, I shall call it a day now, as Saturday’s card appears fiendishly difficult even before some uncertainty as to whether there will be rain at the track.

Still can’t complain, as my weekly average profit target is a modest 2 pts, so by my standards it has been a good week.

All the best.

Rob.

Hi Folks,

2 out of 3 today with each way returns on both ISRAR and CHIEFOFCHIEFS for a small 0.4 pt profit, but unfortunately REACH THE MOON could only finish second.

Anyone brave enough to back both each way selection in a double would have made a nice profit of just over 4 pts.

I have 4 selections for tomorrow, but was pleased to have backed them all earlier this afternoon, as the 3 at Royal Ascot have all shortened due to being tipped up in the Racing Post.

2.30 Ascot – MAWJ @ 2/1 BOG (I took 10/3)
4.20 Ascot – DISCOVERIES each way @ 8/1 BOG with 4 places (I took 10/1)
5.00 Ascot – FRESH HOPE each way @ 7/1 with 7 places (I took 10/1)

7.25 Limerick – RAISE YOU @ 11/10 BOG

All the best.

Rob.

[Robmull]

This is weird, as my posts are accepted on some occasions and rejected at other times.

Selections for tomorrow are:

3.05 Ascot – ISRAR (each way at 8/1 with 6 places).

5.35 Ascot – REACH THE MOON (4/7)

6.10 Ascot – CHIEFOFCHIEFS (each way at 16/1 with 7 places)

All the best.

Rob.
