He’s hit the nail on the head regarding bookies and punters in my opinion. Get rid of the gimmicks, cash back, ante post nrnb, money back if your 2nd etc etc then create a proper book where a punter a can bet against that opinion. Simples!!

Great question this, I flip flop between the two and am equally unsuccessful with both!

I always remind myself of the time me and the other half treated ourselves to the restaurant at Aintree at an Old Roan meeting. I spent hours on the card and picked 1 winner… happy I was! My missus spent 5 minutes before each race had 6 bets and 6 winners. There was lots of after timing and...

Absolutely

I’ve never understood throughout this never ending saga why sports gambling and casino gambling haven’t been clearly defined as 2 separate entities. Why haven’t any of the media challenged this? I remember way back when ‘slots’ were first a thing I’d won about 80 quid on the horses and I...

Good The Gold Cup, I was at Wetherby to see Bravemansgame win the Charlie Hall, backed him in the KG and was heavily invested for the big one. He was beaten by a great horse with a great jockey on board, but he lived up to his name and proved the doubters wrong. It was a thrilling Gold Cup...

Deyrann De Carjac 25/1 for Alan King in 155 C. Bottom weight (1lb out of h'cap) but 5ib claimer on board. Always seems to run his race at Cheltenham (ok run lto staying on). Worth a punt I thought.

Nap for me today is Winter Power at York, the stars are aligned for him. Taken each way on the following 300A Cairn Gorm 350N Ropey Guest 405Y Great Gadian You could soon empty your betting account with all the racing today!

I’m of the the belief that I was happy when I struck the bet so I’ll let it run. I can honestly say I’ve never cashed out. However, I reckon if the first five had won and the last one had drifted like a barge then I might reconsider!! I read a while ago that even though the odds are...
