    Donny 7.45

    Toy theatre 14/1 lads 12/1 365/betway.11/1 corals/totesport/betfred/totesort/victor 10/1 skybet


    Can't really see much tomorrow especially as the ground could be desperate everywhere so too much guessing for me,so a speculative bet on toy theatre at Donny, dark intention has already won one of these at York same grade obvious chance and lady in question ran well on the track when last seen 4th of 20 in a 0-90 so best known form in race looks the obvious pick.At the prices will try toy theatre,the second and third infront of lady in question were hajjam and pastime,the two horses toy theatre beat over the same c/d on previous run if taken literally there would appear little between the two runners,toy theatres last two runs on turf on soft ground have been wins including that win, has run a couole of times since on the aw shown very little but switched back to turf should be fit could be a little improvement left as only up 8 pound for two wins..Hard to rule out any of the runners but could turn into a nice trade and could go off nearer to 7-8/1 maybe shorter.The grounds going to be desperate so some of them have to prove they go on the ground,am not even sure toy theatre will like it but at least has won on soft ground..Kirby rides for mick Appleby..

    Tried to get on as much as I could to do a bit of trading got a days wages out of it with betting it down to 8/1 got my bits left on at 14s and 12s..now 6/1 worked out perfect just ashame you can't get more on.All three I mentioned well backed in race could've had three nice trades in a 7 runner race..

    1.3 in running and given easy race,shouldv'e backed the one I said in write up as well had best form was 4/1 when I put this up,still made money on race it was the value at the prices ended up about 4.2 I think, Kirby only gave it two cracks and never lost anyground when past think it was never going to be given a hard race..

    The Coventry

    Sergei Prokofiev 11/2 365 5/1 corals/lads

    Hardly anything to go on yet very little seen from 2yr olds,i usually wait a bit longer for something that's run on faster ground before having a bet
    and this may only be my second or third fancy come race time but just as it's looked the best so far and the race isn't that far off if you get a poor bunch running upti meeting then you might emd uop with this O'Brien horse being a real shortie.Made debut on the aw came 2nd,then ran at navan
    race was run at a decent pace and won by 7 1/2ls showing nice turn of foot,out of scat daddy horses go on any ground but on gd/fm 23% strike rate so opposite ground to what it won on.Probability the ground will be good at ascot or could be gd/fm,also scat daddy with runners there have a 50% strike rate from 23 runners,winning time of the navan race was a second slower than the 5f listed race on the card so not as good as you'd want to see for a Coventry winner but he did win easily and only second run.
    I watched the listed race on the card and the result was two rags and the third Washington dc also ran up the middle over 5 3/4ls back to the fourth the rest were on the fsr rail,sergie prokofiev raced on that far rail so looks like that may have been the worst part of the track so maybe even worth upgrading the form would've finished upsides the 4th in the listed race on times.
    Of course another four or fibe may come out and prove even better than this the likely hood there will be one better looking runner,but being out of scat daddy and ground being immaterial,makes it unlikely non runner it could imprive further for faster ground and the sires recird at the track plus obvioyusly O'Brien training it,it;s a good starting point.Will almost definitely have something else probavby from the Johnston yard,the Obrien horses last season was murillo and finished third in the race on gd/fm ground also out of scat daddy..

    Southwell 8.20

    Max liebermann 14/1 sportsbook/ppower

    9/1 365/unibet 8/1 skybet

    Max Liebermann has only had six runs was with O'Brien now with john butler,on second run in march foe new trainer ran at swell in a bumper on aw surface won by 9ls from brotherly company over 2mile,brotherly companys rated 74 on the aw and was 2nd in march at swell off 73 in a 0-75.Max liebermanns been given an opening mark of 66 in tomorrows 0-70 over 1m4fs at swell,so potentially very well handicapped although has run poorly twice since but not on thus surface.The card it ran on when winning had seven bumpers on the card and the nearest in way of times of any of the seven races was over two seconds the rest were much more,has to priove that 1m4f suits,but there should be more races to be wo on that win if not this trip over further.Betting should be interesting stable must know if he's qiick enough after beating a 73 rated runner and if they do the you'd expect a big gamble from this stable,i thought it would open 5-6/1 just based on its bumper form..
    If it doesn'r show up to9morrow and there's a dubious looking druft you can almost guarantee butler will have this entered on the aw in future over further,the fav sleep easy looks the obvious pick if that's the case has been running in better races than this and recent run 3rd in class 3 hurdle off 134 has been rated in the 80s on the turf and aw and now off just 68..and decent run at this track on last flat run.

    Windsor 6.10

    Kinglami 11/1 hills..

    Don't really want to put loads of bets up,racing post sites been down and was up til 5am doing the form so I have maybe 20 horses marked off with five meetings I've done some multiples and a few others but far to many to justify anyone backing them all with draws and ground etc.Conditions look right for kinglami tomorrow at Windsor,looks like it's going to be near heavy ground appears everywhere else is desperate as well,has never won over c/d but has a decent record at the track.He won four races last season,off 66,66,70,76 was alsio runner up off 78 tomorrow is off 71 three of the wins on soft one on heavy strangely 2017 only ran once at the track on seasonal debut.
    Has run at Windsor this season already in a 0-85 on good ground,ran quite well only beaten 4 3/4ls so drop down into a 0-70 where it usually runs well back on ground and track it likes could run well,am wondering with fran berry maybe they areaiming it at Chepstow as in recent times they have been keener to run it there and fran berrys rode it twice both unplaced,but ran ok over c/d last time so will have a small bet..Always wins in its turn and I think will see it running at Chepstow,a slighty stiffer track to Windsor..


    Lots of racing this week so don't want ti ruin the month with loads of guesses so early in season on desperate ground,just getting the form done is a huge ask in itself.

    Forecast rain of 20-30mm of rain hasn't arrived at Windsor according to weather reports going to miss rain altogether now so the angle on kinglami has gone now it's even only forecast as good/gd/sft,supppose could get placed still but really was the desperate ground that I was lookihg for..be better if it didn't run.

    Ground too quick for kinglami they were almost near standard time in that race,couldv'e easily laid bet off couldn't see the point and max Lieberman as I said absolutely huge gamble 14/1 into 2/1,beaten 1/2 mile out..had a nasty feeling that would happen with prices crashing so quickly..Couldv'e laid off for some profit obviousy,really couldn't be bothered what I shouldv'e done was kept backing it I had a feeling was going to be near enough 9/4 5/2 when I put the 14s up..could've won decent amounts trading even at the much shorter prices..Looking at the time they must have crawled and both favs well beaten,suggests turned into a sprint finish,i'd ignore those runs and take a risk backing them again if decent prices..Going to try avoid racing a bit too many meetings,too many unreliable going reports as well like Windsor today thought it was going to be heavy ground,plus am big fan of the snooker so this is when I have a little break for a week.


    Kempton 8.45

    Tee it up tommo 14/1 sportsbook/ppower 12/1 unibet/365 10/1 skybet/marathonbet/hills/188bet/victor

    Veteran now Tee it up tommo,8/34 on the aw took him from 2014 to 2017 again to win last seson winning off 63 and then again off 71 ran plenty of other decent races as well in between,shown very little in recent runs although didn't run to bad in a 0- 75 was only 8th of the 12 but at least showed something in a race that was run in a decent time.Tomorrow gets to run in a 0-65 first time since the win off 63 last season,william cox claims 5 taking him down to 60 lowest since novenber 2016,if they go a decent clip and he doesn't get left to far then would have obvious ew chance in this grade,trainer alsi had a winner today.
    Chetan the favourite very consistent bound to run its race now two pound below last winning mark and Connemara queen has run some decent races over c/d sometimes not having great draws in 4 tomorrow Kirby up and first time pieces looks interesting as well second in a 0-70 over c/d in November now off just 60.

    14/1 all firms now,doesn't look promising 17s on betfair really should be getting backed in this grade if expected to run anything like.

    Thats how it is supposed to work

    It will email you every time there is a new post, but only once. Reason for that is simple, when forums were first used they could be mega busy. You could, quite easily on some forums, have 100 replies in an hour. Do that over say 5 threads, would you really want 500 emails clogging up your inbox an hour? Over 5 forums you could get 2500 emails an hour. That's not to mention the fact that the server would quickly get added to spam blocks, so you wouldn't get any emails at all.

    Clicking the link should take you to the last unread post, then you can see them all from there

    Didn't realize was last day of the month 50% of the bets were winners including ew had 21 bets 6 winners 30% strike rate,only 1point wins or .50ptew so level stakes as said at beginning of last season but massive roi was aiming for 200% this month but last few bets no returns so still a massive 170% ROI..turning into a massive year again..

    Clement 20/1
    Birdforlife 2/1
    Mobsta 9/4
    Live dangerously 12/1
    Sea the waves 8/1
    Pour la victoire 5/1

    Had a saver at 9/1,smashed of the boards same trauiner as yesterdayus massive gamble that I put up that got beat had to be done with the other drifting like a barge..couldn't pick anything than the three in the race..main pick 5th again just finishing outside the places

    Musselburugh 2.40

    Royal brave 16/1 ppower/sportsbook 11/1 365/skybet/lads/10bet/sportpress 10/1 corals/betbright.

    Royal brave won this race last season off 77,last five runs at the track has been 1/1/3/1/2 form improved through the season last run over c/d last season the 2nd was in a 0-85 and went to York to finish 6th in a big foeld in a 0-95 so even though 7yr old last season showed its most improvement.Horse won third race back last season and has had two runs this season one at newcasle over 6fs and then ran in conditions race on heavy ground had no chance as needs good/gdfm ground,has top weight tomorrow there are nukerous runners you could pick but royal brave could easily run wel dropping back down in class on favourite trac especially if grounds quick.Danny tudhope rides never won on it but has placed on it a few times,there is a possibility that this could go off nearer to 5-6/1 if ground is as forecast,as some of the runners might prefer slower ground all deends how accurate going reports are.
    Tanasoq is one of the horses that will like fast ground,had some form in 0-85 previous couple of seasons now with paul midgeley and came back to form on slower ground on only,that was only a 0-75 but ground was slower than given on result,lexington place is a bit of a rogue impossible to predict but on good mark and ruth carrs horses running well..

    That's only a little of the punters following him, it's mostly bookies following. They follow good people's treads just as much as watching the money coming in.

    That's the problem always has been,so many now viewing the last couple of days has seen the thread getting 2-3000 views aday,might have to think of some otherway of putting up bets,that's why I try and put multiples up as it's the only way to win anything decent,hate this time of year just too many meetings and you are guessing really on the ground a lot of the time..soft ground drying out..So easy to back a load of losers,because you've done the form on wrong ground..

    According to RP Royal Brave has been tipped by 4 tipsters tomorrow (not including our giggsy) so no great surprise the price is gone. I missed the price myself so had to settle for Lexington at 18-1 (now cut) and the reverse forecast! As usual betting in the 10 minutes before the race will be interesting. Don't stop posting giggsy I don't want to go back to being another guesser!!
