Traf Posted January 9, 2011 Author Share Posted January 9, 2011 Pretty piss poor fare today in the UK: just poxy lower grade sand racing. I don't have any regular bets for today, but if I was to have a small punt through the card, I'd go with: 1.10: Kheley (3/1) won 1.40: Castle Myth (7/4) won 2.15: Dontpaytheferryman (1/2) won 2.45: Dubai Hills (8/11) won 3.20: Even Stevens (9/4) 4th 3.55: Double Carpet (11/2) 2nd Prices correct as of 12.30. Looks like a favourites day today, bar the last race. The fav won the last race! 4 winners and a 2nd from 6: 4pts profit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Traf Posted January 10, 2011 Author Share Posted January 10, 2011 Not one of my regular bets, but I quite like the look of Marleno in the 3.15 Taunton: took 7/1 BOG with b365 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Traf Posted January 13, 2011 Author Share Posted January 13, 2011 Lil Ella was unplaced, Grey Wulff was a very creditable 2nd. E/W backers broke even on the day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Traf Posted January 14, 2011 Author Share Posted January 14, 2011 (edited) It's a bit like the Marie Celeste in here: similar to talking to one's self.

KP Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 Know fuck all about it, but let's have a go for the fun of it. 17:50 Wolverhampton: Munsef (8/13) 18:50 Wolverhampton: Indian Wish (EW 12/1) 19:20 Wolverhampton: Mongoose Alert (6/1) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Traf Posted January 20, 2011 Author Share Posted January 20, 2011 Munsef travelled like a pig late on. Clearly the best horse in the race, but massively underpriced and never looked like winning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Traf Posted January 21, 2011 Author Share Posted January 21, 2011 (edited) Don't put yourself down. At least you stuck your neck out and put your selections up to be shot at. I only stopped posting mine because I felt like I was talking to myself (they took me away last time!) Racing's not easy like some folk would try and have you believe. I make my income from the sport and as such I spend hours every day/night analysing races with a view to making money. I email my selections on a daily to another poster off here, so there's never a claim of aftertiming, as I only backed 3 horses to win today and had 2 winners. Mind you, I make most of my money from laying horses to lose. I also post my picks on another invitation-only racing forum. I'm not trying to patronise you or give it the big "I am" here, but if you want to carry on posting your picks up, then I'll recommence too: that applies to anyone really: I just don't want to be the only one posting in here! The only main rule I have is that any picks/selections have to be posted before the race starts. I get proper pissed off when folk post at 5pm about a "12/1 winner they backed earlier in the day!"

Fair enough mate, I can see from your picks you clearly know your stuff. I will continue to dable in a few and post em up then, as I find it can be good fun and would be nice to see if I can improve from the poor start! As I've just started out, I've realised it isn't easy at all, but I suppose that's what makes me want to carry on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Traf Posted January 21, 2011 Author Share Posted January 21, 2011 No jumps racing today: due to frost. Just shitty low-grade sand racing from Lingfield and Wolves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KP Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 Do you prefer to stay away from those type of races then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Traf Posted January 21, 2011 Author Share Posted January 21, 2011 No, every race has a winner and several losers. It's just harder to assess a poor race where many of the runners are fairly equally matched. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Traf Posted January 21, 2011 Author Share Posted January 21, 2011 (edited) I've got these two today: but they're not really firm bets. 2.30 Lingfield: Pineapple Pete. Currently 5/1 2nd fav, it's up against a 1/3 fav: but you never know. 6.05 Wolverhampton: Kentish. Probably more of an E/W bet: currently 10/1.
