Tips
We kick September off with one bet, in the lucky last at Brighton, a standard 2pt bet on one who now goes off the same mark he last won from in a poorly contested 0-75. Other than that it’s a relatively naff looking day, so I’ll let the rest run with just the one interest.
One each-way tickle today, with Peaceful Spirit on handicap debut for Lawrence Mullaney at Southwell. Bred to be useful on the All Weather and off a lowly mark of 62, with four places on offer.
The rain has finally come, and with it a plethora of non-runners. Proven form on deeper ground is a major positive, but I’m taking a chance on a debutant who hails from a sire with a remarkable record at producing mudloving types.
A decent set of cards to chew over, and three chanced with more expectation than hope. Two standard bets at 2pts and one minimum bet for 1pt, at Thirsk, Goodwood and Sedgefield.
The one we do go with was a handsome winner for readers back in January, when the mare won a near mirror image race over the C&D at 16/1. She goes again at double the price here, which just can’t be ignored.
Three bets across the Newbury maiden card today: two Owen Burrows newcomers and a big-priced Jack Channon 2TO, leaning on the two angles that have been almost bombproof for us. For the first time in a while, I’m playing a 1pt minimum.
I’m going to chance one who we backed recently on stable debut for Luke Dace, who put a similar showing in on his first start at Kempton. Switching to Lingfield today, where he has solid course form, I’ve had to dip back in.
One bet on a quiet Monday – one of Musselburgh’s strongest yards with their only runner of the day, 7lbs below his last winning mark. Brief thoughts on the others I looked at as well.
A week spent on the sidelines as a watching brief, and we’re back with the one that went into the tracker last post. Kiss Don’t Tell at the Curragh, 1pt each-way at 33/1 off what I think is a lenient opening mark, with a 5lb claimer on board.
A bumper day of it on the betting front, going to war with four chanced and all from the Tracker.
