    The 2025 Glorious Goodwood Day 1 (Tuesday) thread

    I like it when the big meetings are covered by the Tote World Pool. The Treble of the last three races can sometimes prove rewarding, with also a consolation included when having the first two winners with the runner up in the last leg. Naval Light Stellar Sunrise x Protest Tundra Rose...

    Not the most obvious of selections but I have had a few ££ EW on Faberi @80/1 3.25 Gowran Park, green as grass on her only start last year in a contest won by this year's leading filly and dual Oaks winner Minnie Hauk - she did however hint at a little ability. Faberi showed little on her...

    The 2025 Newmarket July Meeting

    Looking ahead to Saturday - I like Run Boy Run EW at around 9 or 10/1 in the Bunbury Cup with most firms paying 4 Places. I also like Secret Theory EW in the 3.25 at 8/1 with Ladbrokes and Coral paying 3 Places with only the seven runners due to go to post.

    8.30 Uttoxeter - Piecederesistance a former useful sort at his best on the flat is an infrequent winner these days, has yet to get off the mark in 9 starts over timber ( 3 seconds & 2 thirds ) , on a long losing streak and just about stays the trip - but EW claims nonetheless at his best, and...

    What are you backing Today? Part 2

    Has been a fairly quiet week for me, but one that I like today EW @11/1 is 2.35 Market Rasen - Unexpected Ask, racecourse debut today but is related to a couple of winners and will not need to be anything out of the ordinary to take a hand here.

    Is There Any Good Bookies These Days ?

    It would be nice to find out the full details - however, bookmakers are rarely forthcoming & will quote client confidentiality. There are definitely lots of cases of unscrupulous punters out there, who have basically been responsible for genuine backers having trouble getting on. But this...

    Is There Any Good Bookies These Days ?

    Take a look at the last paragraph of this reply to a customer from his online bookmaker - it is taken from Twitter after the customer was unable to take winnings out of his account. It is very worrying for the future of anybody that has accounts. I'm sure if the customer lost continuously then...

    What is "predatory pricing"?

    Off course SP returns need investigating ....... I am aware of an incident recently where on track there was a punter close to the off of a race trying to place a £1000 EW on a horse at 6's which was freely available with most of the bookmakers - the starting price returned was 7/2.

    The 2025 Longshot Thread

    After drifting overnight I simply had to step in again at 125/1 EW 4 Places and 40/1 for the Top 3 finish .... and also a little at 100's & 33's. I can't see the horse winning, but on that ground is a sporting bet for a top 4 finish and simply too big a price. Finger crossed for a good run.
