Keeping idiots off other forums seething has nothing to do with modesty after them trying to be smart arses,just teaching them a valuable lesson as I told them all along don't try having a dig when you havn't got a clue what you're talking about as you'll always come out second best..

3.10 Lingfield Don't really like anything tomorrow have a couple marked off but prices are very poor so just had a token bet on this one..
A dire race two in the pink looks likeliest winner on recent form and has remaimed consistent,there are two runners in the race lady lunchalot is well handicapped lowest mark since 2013 running off just 56 didn't run to badly in a better race than this in September if returning to even just that form has decent ew chance.The other well handicapped one is celtic ava runs off 52 tomorrow,has been totally out of form returns to the track it last won on off 58 when winning a similar race like this last February.Needs top come back to form and would have reasonable ew chance on that one run,worth a token bet in double figures might even be one to follow for a few runs on the aw back over this c/d..
Celtic ava hae taken 14/1 12/1 still left with lads/sportsbook

That comment I put on there was after the first four races had been run as he usually misses the break I said he needed to be up with pace or pace collapse as it was he got both,was only 3ls behind from the break and there was a pace collapse as well think the 4 out of the first five races front runners dominated.Also sir Geoffrey was taken out which meant it shouldv'e been easier to dominate,not even sure it made any difference anyway think those runners in that race were just poor and won't win on the surface..I was surprised to see him break so well after a furlong I thought he'd win being that close,southwell can be impossible to come from behind at a lot of meetings think he was just different class..

There originally looked loads of pace in that race dr redeye,sir Geoffrey and pennine warrior two of those 6f horses so looked like race would be run to suit,one was non runner then after watching stun guns race it was looking like impossible to come off the pace so looked like one of those days when pace might just hold up.Dr redeye and wimbodsley did exactly as expected but if you watch race the 1st and 2nd were 3rd and 4th throughout,alpha tauri hardly ever travel that well and was in perfect position,as I said in write up first meeting at swell so hard to. predict.Just hope they don't get massive drops in temps there all winter as makes the track more unpredictable harder to use times and harder to do the form..

3.30 Newcastle
Interesting runner in holiday magic 22 races as a 5yr old has not been placed from 9 runs on the turf but won 4 from 13 on the aw and 4 places was previously trained by charlie appleby got a to mark of 95 march 2015 after running in some decent handicap races winning off 84 then mark crept upto 95 as races were better quality even though not winning again.Last placed run was 3rd of 95 over a mile at chelmsford august 2015.
Mick easterby has since trained on second run for him was 4th of 13 off 90 to barracuda boy over tomorrows c/d,has since run all eight of his next runs on turf has never been placed on it but still even some of those runs weren't too bad in decent handicaps over an inadequate 6fs,ascot was staying on at finish as well.Those runs have enabled him to drop from that mark of 90 and return to the aw on just a mark of 74 19 pound less than last run on it plus nathan evans takes off another three down to 71.He has one ridiculously well handicapped horse could actually drop into a race for horses upto 75 never mind tomorrows race for horses upto 85,hard to know if he's getting this down even further in weights but off these marks on the aw has to be worth considering as aw season starts as some of his turf runs suggest he isn't necessarily a horse that has regressed yet just hasn't been on right surface and a trip too short..
Holiday magic a real disappointment on the price sportsbook opened 28/1 cut to 8s amd all other books followed suit lemmings,desperate stuff will have a token bet but will probably be better bet if no show tomorrow may get double this price in a weaker race next time out...8/1 365/victor
8/1 ppower

An impossible looking handicap 3/4 open tio improvement and horses syuch as baddalini and fleckrl well handicapped others lightly raced on the surface,wasn't going top have a bet tomorrow as the cards poor but will have another toke bet on fleckerl.Last season improved on the aw winning off 85 then getting touched off a mark of 90 has come down the weights now rated 83,strictly on last years run in that last race can't beat baddalini and closely matched with bertir blu boy,i'm also not a faqn of conor dore hoprses treble in price when they shouldn't so would not be at all confident but as his best runs were last here then will have a small bet.This was oroginally one of my to follows horses when it won on debut with willie uir have avoided it because of trainer,don't be surprised if this goes off treble original price as they are impossible top predict.Baddalini I've backed as most punters on the aw a few times is absolutely thrown in and hasn't run in this grade for 4 years also hasn't won in its last 24 runs if bertie blu boy goes off a million with another then he could figure and pick up the pieces.
Fleckerl 18/1 vctor/201 sportsbook 16/1 generally..
Fleckerl
That was so funny drifted out to 20s late on complete non trier under hands n' heels sitting on the rail,didn't even recognize paul mulrennan thought it was a girl definite non trier one for notebook that's why I hate betting the stable impossibl;e to predict..

5.10 Kempton
Leshlaa ran in a decent looking maiden at newmarket over 7fs i think the winner giovanni battista could yet be very decent,the pair pulled 5ls of fatherly friend had previously ran well on debut they were different class to that runner,the time of the maiden was also 2 seconds quicker than the 2nd div and also over .70 quicker than the two 7f maidens ran the following day which may have been on quicker ground.If leshlaa has come on for the run then will take some beating and although is short,i can see this going off 1/3 maybe even shorter so could be some nice trading in there or a risk free bet,thought this would open 2s on tops as well expecting price collapses on this overnight books putting prices up fior this last..
Leshlaa 8/11 sportsbook/365 should be smashed off the boards be 4/9 tops by midnight maybe shorter
skybet/totesport/betfred/hills 4/6 8/11 betbright 4/6 victor/corals
Still 4/7 most books may even get these prices on betfair hopefully for awhile..

Don't worry about it ec it's always been the same although I will say a couple of years ago were a fair few more replys but still in general there were never many,yet the thread viewing is becoming huge,if no one was actually looking at it I simply wouldn't post.Alot have come over from betfair and puntersmate recently,i've also had offers if i'd go private just last week someone on here offered £500 a month,don't need the money and as I was saying on here a couple of weeks back 2 years tops then finishing although I will still bet on the aw and pack the turf in.Don't get angry fella,i just wind the ones up that deserve it and i'm very good at it:lol::lol:
and they know it as I said before unbeatable!!
and they know it as I said before unbeatable!!
EC - I understand it's out of frustration but referring to folks you know absolutely nothing about as arrogant ****s is just arrogant in itself. Not everyone is like you, not everyone is the same! People are at different stages, looking for different things, some folks like to be in the thick of it with comments all over the place, others prefer to read and perhaps comment occasionally, some folks might start by just reading and then become poster/commenters later on. It doesn't mean they don't appreciate the folks that post nor enjoy what they read in the thread. I do agree that at the very least they should express that appreciation with a thank you comment.
Gigilo - I read everything you post in this thread. Why? Simply because I recognise the quality of the work you do to get to the selections you make - your results speak for themselves - outstanding - by far the best I have come across. Of course I benefit from what you provide and for that I have thanked you both with the "thanks" button and by commenting. I know (and I am sure you do too) that there are other good services out there, not many I have to say, who do similar work and have a loyal following. The difference is that they charge for their services. The best one I know of charges more than I can afford to pay (I don't use big stakes, so I couldn't make it pay). There are many thousands of tipsters all happy to take money for their services - in my opinion, there are only a handful who actually have the skill and who put in the time to do the analysis. You are definitely one of them, and it's rare. I do not have the skill or knowledge to do what you do - but I still recognise quality when I see it. So, thank you sincerely once again for sharing your work. I will continue to read your posts for as long as you keep doing it. Should you ever change your mind and decide to setup a private service I would certainly want to know about it.

Ditto what THEBOO said - Gigilo knows who appreciates his work and others too. No need to get personal and abusive because you can't see it.

Being a non bettor I have nothing to add to the thread in terms of selections, I just read for interest. Have to agree with the above that labelling other forum members as arrogant tw*ts is not how to win friends and influence people, some might even think that's the "pot calling the kettle black".

You're a fine man, Gigs, and a great form expert. I follow this thread and will occasionally dabble - if I win, I will always thank you. EC's comments are his usual tasteless nonsense.

A speculative ew lucky 15 can't really say i like anything but as these are double figures the just about worth having some coppers on,,minimum stakes if having any singles..
7.15 Wolves
A weakish looking race for the grade usually put a line through trainers horses he's only had 1 winner from last 120 runners so you have to be a bit optimistic to back any of his runners,he doesn't really train any horses of note i'm not sure but this may even one of his best horses at least ratings wise that its achieved.
Horse was actually 2nd off 85 jan 2015 at kempton,gradually came down the weights on turf and won off 70 this season,best run was when splitting red tea and feed the goater at newmarket they are now both rated 83 and could be improving,that run was over 7fs and the run after winning a weak race on the turf over 6fs.The main positve seems to be aw mark,last run was 7th of 11 on the aw november 2015,but that aw mark has been allowed to fall to just 73,last three runs on the aw over this trip has been 3/2/2 off 84,85,85 plus hollie doyle gets to take off another 5 pound down to 68.Those runs in the 80s were a far while ago early 2015 but if could just transfer the run off 69 behind red tea in september then no reason why couldn't run well as potentially still a better aw horse,its just the trainer rarely has winners or places so could only be slightly speculative..

The second division and another weakish looking race,another speculative pick with 11yr old veteran light from mars tomorrow he gets to run off lifetime low mark of 71,did win off 72 january 2016 was also runner up off 75 in march at kempton.Not really sure wolves is his track and has only won once in last 3 seasons but last time out ran quite well staying on even though only finishing 6th of 14 respectable run for horses rated upto 80.There's probably another race in him maybe have to drop into a race for horses upto 70 but at the prices he's worth a token bet with luke morris back riding off that lifetime low mark..Personal touch is now on lowest matk since 2012 another veteran and with mick Appleby training now off just a mark of 72 running first time in grade could easil;y run well in this weak race..
Light from mars 11/1 365/skybet/hills/victor
9.15
Powerful dream ran ok behind a couple of these last time beaten a couple of lengths by zipedeedoodah he gave the field a 5l start and was only beaten 2ls staying on at finish,ron harris has only given this 3yr old 12 runs so could still be open to improvement especially as that last run was after a break of over 2 months..Lots of runners could figure in wide open looking race..Will also mention billy oakes luke morris comes off [owerful dream and rides billy oakes,the run behind doctor parkes actually gives him the beating of [powerful dream and the last time billy oakes ran over this c/d won off 79 beating lightscameraction,so that booking could be significant maybe worth adding to bets...

Loads of pace in this race with come on dave and bertie blu boy and just the lord and calypso choir,princess tansy finished 4th behind just the lord and calypso choir over 5fs at kempton last time out running 5 wide throughtout and staying on well, beaten 2ls.That was her best aw run by some way has big weight pull of 11 pound with calypso choir and 8 pound with just the lord.Negatives could be different track and the jock david egan even though taking off the 7 pound,but based on that kempton run and the way it will be run then maybe worth a small bet.That form did see out of line with all previous aw form and it maybe she will be better at kemptin so one to keep in the notebook...
Princess tansy 8/1 365/betbright/corals/victor/ppower Was hoping some of these would be far bigger so definitely small bets,although they could well drift out to bigger prices yet..
Got 9/1 princess tansy this morning..
That princess tansy race absolute stank,6 natural front runners and 4 of them get held up I have never seen two of those horses not lead nearly every race they've run in yet were held up and the winer gets a sioft lead backed from 12s into 5/2 someone knew that it wasn;'t going to be taken on as backing anything that was going to lead was impossible in theat race.One of the strangest races I've seen in a long while,maybe a 1000 races....
