Just the one bank saving winner yesterday but I learnt a couple of lessons..

Avoid any race meeting where an inspection has been held – the later the inspection the stronger this advice.

Listen to myself (again) Tuesday night I pencilled in the Prescott runner as a long shot, forecast to go off at 8/1 and with the profile of a Prescott plot horse. I discarded it because the morning betting showed it at around 7/2, 4/1 so I binned it. It later drifteed back to sevens and won..Grrrr

Yesterdays tip alert email read:

“lets hope to improve on yesterdays good results.
Unfortunatly I have say that I will not be betting on the top rated shorties today and could not find a win or place alternative so no bets in those races apart from for the jackpot. However Edin Burgher merits a 5 point single and 1 point treble with my nap and next best.

Best bet Voss 7/2 12.20 Lingfield 8 Points win

Next best bet: Dance The Mambo 7/2 12.40 Newcastle 5 points win, 1 point double

1 pt win 4pt place 0.5 ew dble: Polly Jones 9/1 3 Ling, Nomadic Blaze 12/1 3.20 Newc

Combination Exacta 0.5 pt: Nomadic Blaze, Young Smokey, Political Cruise 3.20 Newc

Top rated shorties:.The Whisperer 4/9 1.10 Newcastle, Noir Et Vert 8/13 1.45 Newcastle, Edin Burgher 3/1 2.25 Ling”

Another good day for my racing tips yesterday + + 26.25 on just the singles!

best bet: WON Come Bye 9/4 2.20 Folkestone 8 points win

Next best bet: WON Topiary Ted 9/4 1.40 Wolverhampton 5 points win

Top rated shorties: WON Melpomene 13/8 Superrollercoaster 13/8, WON Hurlingham 1/2 3.30 S

Not too bad yesterday with only one tip failing to make the frame, shame the placepot went down on one leg, here’s hoping I do better today.

Three top rated but I will be betting Melpomene & Superrollercoaster as 10 point singles and in a 2 point double plus a one point treble but no straight bet either back or lay on Hurlingham. In the 3.40 Wolves Glenviews Youngone could be the dark horse, 1 point win 4 points place for me.

Another good day for my racing tips with only one from seven failing to make the frame for a very tasty 21.70 points profit plus a small exacta win to provide the icing on the cake.

Email subscribers did especially well if they followed my advice:

“Hope you had a great weekend, it certainly made mine when we came back from the pub to see that my nap and next best both won.

The two Barron shorties today were pencilled in as my nap and next best but are too short to qualify, however I rate them as 10 point back selections and will make a great treble with Maletton, also a 10 pointer. BTW both Barron horses are in Betfred best odds races.

Gambling Housewife’s best bet: 2nd Running Hot 3/1 3 Plumpton 7 points win

Free racing tipsters tip (next best): PU Raki Rose 2/1 2 Plumpton 5 points win

One pt win 4pt place 0.5 ew dble: 3rd Ebony Jack 9/1 3.30 Plump, 1st Players Please 6/1 4.40 Wolves

Best combination exacta: Won Ex £18.10 Players Please, Challis, Six Day War 4.40 Wolves

Top rated shorties: Won Pietersen 5/4 2.10 W, 2nd Rafferty 4/5 3.10 W, won Maletton 6/4 2.50 Fakenham

Yesterdays email didnt have any extra tips but I did ask if ” you all took the hint and backed the two shorties yesterday for a profitable day?”

Pleased with yesterdays results, on singles alone the two winners returned 39.50 points profit and the double another 29.25 points profit. The winning horses were:

Best Bet: Josh You Are 4/1 4.45 Kempton 6 points win
Next best racing tip: Louphole 4/1 3.45 Kempton 5 points win, 1 pt double

Off to make todays racing selections – and decide if the top rated shorties are to be backed or layed for my email list.

For Saturdays email I wrote

” I hope to start the day with a winner in the first at Lingfield, Johnstons Boscobel doubled up with Areyoutalkingtome later to pay for the rest of todays bets. Betfred is still showing Pietersen at 9s, mostly 5s and Racing Post forecast 3/1…very strange.

Best bet Saturday: Madison Du Berlais 7/4 3 Warwick 8 points win”

Very nice win double advised in the email and trebled up with my winning nap!
