I had a thread a while back but i ended it after the premiership finished..

Made a small profit and have decided to give it a go again as i have been having a few winners lately and want to track how much i'm gaining or losing...
This time i will give explanations behind my bets incase anyone is going to be taking an interest....

Hope for a bit of luck and I should be ok

Bank starting at 100pts

All bets done with Paddy Power..

Just looking through the cards now should have my selections for ascot up in a short while

colly54

3:15 Ascot

Haatheq 6/1

All of its good runs have been on good ground and the swing in weight of 5 pounds gives it every chance of having a good run. Very good each way value in my opinion

1 point e/w

colly54

Ascot 3.50

Yaa Wayl 7/1

Failed to come outside the top 4 in all of its races (8)..
Been drawn in number 5 which shouldnt be a problem...

2pts e/w

colly54

Ascot 4:25

Cape Blanco 5/1

Won 5 of its last 6 races and was very impresive last time out at the Curragh.

Johhny Murtagh not on board which may have some impact on the odds been so high, but O'Donoghue is a good jockey in my opinion and will hopefully give it a good ride.

I really think it has great chance..

4pts win

I would be biased in selecting the dublin match so ill leave that one out...

other 3 will be close in my opinion

have to say i fancy Cork, Down and Monaghan though...

I think Monaghan are huge at 11/8.
Was going to do that accum except with Sligo at 17/2...tricky call.

Yeah it is tough alright....
Monaghan are big at that price but Kildare are a decent outfit ...
Draw looks tempting 15/2

I think im going to wait till tomorrow and see what the latest team news is..

Might do that quad and back Monaghan on their own. Limerick at +4 at even money is tempting too.

I think louth at +4 is very tempting...
Dublin struggling to kill off teams this year

I have a feeling Cork could up it a notch tomorrow though

Best of luck Colly, I'll be shocked if Cape Blanco wins though. Hope the the thread goes well. But not Cape Blanco.

2pts e/w

went out to 12/1 finished 4th...
return 6pt profit

Gaa bet was a loser, only Yaa Wayl placed

Bank:96pts

Ascot 4:00

Kings Masque 9/1

He has reached the first 3 on each of his last 7 runs and should have a good run today...

1pt e/w

colly54

Ascot 4:35

Ouster 9/1

Ouster came third behind Times Up and Bay Willow previously but struggled for room on the run in. He's weighted to get closer today.

1pt e/w

colly54

Ascot 5:10

Golden Destiny 20/1

Looks overpriced too me. Last two runs were not good but the last 3 over 5 furlongs he won. Hasn't been outside top 3 in all his runs over 5 furlongs.

1pt e/w

Going to go for a lucky 15 in Galway today..
All high priced horses with a good e/w chance so if two were to come in i would be in the money

5:10 Tadgh 25/1
5:45 Banna Man 14/1
7:00 Mount Helicon 20/1
8:05 Captains Dilemma 20/1

.5pts e/w .... Total Stake 15pts


Tadgh last 2 runs were at this distance were he came 2nd and 5th respectively..He likes the ground today and should go well

Banna Man is another who likes the ground...Won his last outing over 2 miles and a furlong , so the distance shouldn't be a problem today..

Mount Helicon Top 3 in 6 of his last 7 runs, only race outside top 3 was over 20 furlongs which he seems to tire, should run well today

Captains Dilemma last outing was in october but came 2nd and had some energy left to push on...hopefully the absence helped him and can get a good run today

colly54

5:30 Wolverhampton

Love In The Park 14/1

Dropping down a class, he has won 3 out of 4 of his class 6 runs....Tom Eaves onboard who is a quality jockey in my opinion...

2.5pts e/w

Going for a Lucky 15 again today in Galway

5:10 One Cool Tornado 12/1
5:45 Decoy Daddy 8/1
6:20 Easy Mate 12/1
7:00 Drombeag Dawn 12/1

1pt win lucky 15 = total stake 15pts

One Cool Tornado looks overpriced after winning his last outing over this distance and on same ground...Should go well

Decoy Daddy , The Mullins duo are on this one shpuld be giving a good ride... came 2nd on similar ground in his last race

Easy Mate, From the Weld yard, should run well and enjoys the ground nice e/w value in my opinion

Drombeag Dawn , Ran well over this ground previously and has some good form heading into this race ...

colly54

Doing a Patent in Goodwood

Tartan Gigha 12/1
Corsica 7/1
Leiba Leiba 16/1

1pt win = 7pts

Tartan Gigha He scored twice in this grade and is just 3lb higher than his last winning mark. Should go well

Corsica should love this ground and is overpriced in my opinion, very good chance...

Leiba Leiba won a 5f double last month and just missed out in a Chester conditions race last time

Lucky 15 again for Galway tomorrow , hopefully the winning continues

3:00 Jowango 7/1
3:35 Waterloo Chateau 10/1
4:10 King Of Redfield 8/1
5:25 Grand Slam Hero 12/1

Lucky 15 1pt , Total Stake= 15pts



Jowango, won at this distance last time out and the ground will suit him could be a surprise

Waterloo Chateau, goes well over 2 miles 4 furlongs, in the top 5 in 10 of his last 11 races .... Likes the ground also which is a plus

King OF Redfield has improved since getting a stiffer test of stamina which he looks certain to have here. An easy run over this trip at Tipperary was followed by a good effort at Listowel where he was staying on strongly at the finish.

Grand Slam Hero, top 3 in 7 of his last 8 races, likes the good ground and should be there or thereabouts at the finish...
