Yesterday, after a pub lunch with ex-colleagues. The feller on the right is longtime VT absentee dicky_plums. 

Cock happy. *disappears again*

 

 

Supreme Novices Hurdle –  (Paddy Power offer refund losing bet if horse ends 2^nd, 3^rd or 4^th) - 2pts Vautour @ 3/1, 1pt Josses Hill @ 12/1 

 

 

 

• 1st (15) Vautour 7/2J
• 2nd (6) Josses Hill 14/1
• 3rd (14) Vaniteux 11/1

nice start CV !!

 

 

 

Lol Zat Knight.

 

He who captains Bolton as they sit comfortably 18th in the Championship.

 

What? As opposed to Holt who couldn't get a game in mid-table Wigan?

Collymore reckons we shouldn't read too much into him not playing at Wigan, internal issues.

 

 

If its because he doesnt like Dave Whelan then he is good enough for me

 

Is it because he ate all their pies?

My tip for tomorrow.

Leeds v Barnsley. Leeds to win 8/11.

FC Eindhoven v Telstar - Eindhoven to win @ 8/13

Bloody Hell CV. 

Lyvius came 2nd as well!

This is mental.

Pass Muster worth a look in that race too after winning at musselburgh last week.

Dicky's Each Way Tip:

Harvest Mist in the 4.20 at Wolverhampton - 12/1

Dark Glacier 2nd.

A good eachway day, but only 1 winner...

Not a very lucky day.

12:50 - Black River £20 @ 7/4

13:20 - The Druids Nephew £20 @ 10/1

I've had a Lucky 31 on these 5...

doubletoilntrouble is now 12/1...

Extraordinary.

*takes out massive unsecured loan and rushes down the bookies*

CV is on fire today.

The only one of his 9 choices that didn't come anywhere so far - Greywell Boy - is the one I decided to put some real money on.

Typical. £10 down.

On second look this is a possibly tricky day so not going mad on the stakes.

 

 

Haydock

 

13:20 - Fago £40 @ 11/4 - NAP

 

Ascot

 

13:00 - Beat That £20 @ 6/4

 

 

Well done! Fago won by 9 lengths!

CV - What are your thoughts for the Betfair Chase tomorrow?

I've been reading the discussion on here: http://www.olbg.com/forum/topic6_48556_12.html

and Long Run e/w @ 12/1 with Silviniaco Conti to win @ 5/2 looks worth a punt.

My Ascot thoughts:

I also think Greywell Boy has a great chance in the 2.40 at Ascot. 3/1 odds

My outsider tip is Brother Brian in the 1.00 at Ascot. It should have the fitness edge over the others and is worth an each way punt currently at 10/1.

The Johnson/Hobbs combo is doing well at the moment, so I'd also go for Duke of Lucca @ 8/1 e/w with his blinkers on for the first time in the 3.15. 

Johnson is riding 4 Philip Hobbs horses at Ascot today, including Dunraven Storm tipped by snowy above - all currently priced at 4/1 or better.

5p on each of these today.

It's interesting to see which so called tipsters are doing well. This listing for example. http://racing.betting-directory.com/naps/table.php

I'm always a bit sceptical as to who these people are. Who is Newsboy? Does he exist? Or is it some hack picking a random favourite every day?

I've been taking a look at the form and the tips today too and have come up with these - mostly outsiders with a good e/w chance at good odds:

 

1.30 Market Rasen - Present View 4p @ 11/4 win; Talkin Thomas 4p @ 7/1 e/w

 

12.40 Chepstow - Buywise - 4p @ 10/1 e/w

2.50 Chepstow  - Grey Soldier 4p @ 20/1 e/w

3.30 Chepstow - Tin Pot Man - 4p @ 7/1 e/w

9.6p returned for Tin Pot Man in 2nd place

+ 15p returned for Present View

- 20p staked today

= 4.6 profit today

= 46.93p in the account 

It would be much more exciting with real money (and a lot easier to keep track).

This is just a test, for now...

 

1.30 Market Rasen - Present View 4p @ 11/4 win

15p returned for Dick's Tips

I've been taking a look at the form and the tips today too and have come up with these - mostly outsiders with a good e/w chance at good odds:

1.30 Market Rasen - Present View 4p @ 11/4 win; Talkin Thomas 4p @ 7/1 e/w

12.40 Chepstow - Buywise - 4p @ 10/1 e/w

2.50 Chepstow  - Grey Soldier 4p @ 20/1 e/w

3.30 Chepstow - Tin Pot Man - 4p @ 7/1 e/w

No good for me either. 12 virtual plums down. A lot of outsiders were placed at hexham today.

Dick's tips for Wednesday.

Hexham.

2.10 Beau Dandy 5/1 ew

2.40 Dottie's Dilemma 5/2 win

3.40 Morning Time 5/2 win

Lingfield 1.30

Indian Violet 10/1 ew

Stake is 4p on each horse

For today:

My 10/3 winner returns 17.33p

My 10/1 winner returns 29p

+ 12p in the sack

- 4p on the losing race

= 54.33 plums in the sack
