New Log - Sick of Losing! Road to Victory!

INEEDANID

Getting a bit fed up with loosing more than winning so I have decided to start a log in order to track how I do over time.

I am going to give reasoning for each bet that I place which should remove some of the losses such as heart over head bets:rolleyes:

I will be betting mainly on horse racing but other sports too.

First Bet!
Ardglen 18:05 Ballinrobe 5-2 Paddypower
Stake 12 pts win

Reasoning

Horse has a lovely weight and has some good form.
Got a tip for him from the stable and the tips are usually there or thereabouts.

Wish me luck!

INEEDANID

Ardlan won just about despite getting very tired near the finish. The weight just about saved the day.

Nice to start with a win anyway.

New bank 41
Profit 29

Best of luck, nice to start with a healthy win.

INEEDANID

2:25 Mart Lane 10 pts win - even money
Dual bumper winner is flying at the yard and will go very close today.

15:00 One for joules 5 pts win - 15-8
Going well at the moment and looks a race that could be picked up. Would have been a better 4-1 each way bet rather than 15-8 win bet though.

16:10 Cool newport 1pt each way - 15-2
Hoping for a place here with the possibility of a win. Paddy Brennan booked for the ride.

Mart Lane - Won by 23 lengths was impressive. Returns inc stake 20

One for joules - Won well too after being shaken up. Got 14.40 Back inc stake

Cool Newport - Ran well at a decent price. Had a good chance around 2 out but ran out of steam. One for the next day.

New Bank 63.32 Pts

Nothing for today

16:15 Listowel
Ardglen - Won well the last day and despite a weight rise I still expect him to win. The ground suits and he is back over his optimum distance of 2m 4furlongs.

No superstar but is at a decent prize and could run into a place.

Good each way value with a chance of a win. Several horses in this race who I couldnt see going too well on the ground. Will go close today.

No good. Horse with beaten with a half mile to go.

Ardglen won again Sunday but didnt go for it this time as 3 races in a week or so is one too many in my book!

Hard to back this one on recent form. I was givin the tip from a reliable source so im chancing it.
1 pt e/w @ 7-1

Horse won really well last time and despite this being a better race I expect him to go real close.

Open up your heart 5-1
Has went well on his last start and won on soft. The ground is very soft today as it hasnt stopped raining here all morning and I live near the course. He should go on the ground and since its such as poor race I would expect him to run into a place at least.
1.5 pts each way

Won in Listowel on the same type of ground. Is a good jumper. Hopefully should be there or there abouts.

Fontell 15:05
Osmosia 5-2

Has decent enough form in a poor race. The favourite is 12 and be ruled out in my opinion.

15:15 Longchamp

Frankie will go close on this one

Has good form for Donald Mccain. 5 -1 seems a good price.

Ground should be perfect and goes well fresh. Taking a risk by going against sizing europe. But ground and freshness in favour. 11-8

A poor run

15:30 Gowran

Disgusted with Ruby Walsh. Never tried an inch.

Thanks:)

Going well so far.

Only having very small bets unless I have some information which seems to be working well enough so far anyway. Im going to tray to stick to that strategy.

16:35 Uncle Junior
A proven stayer who has quite good form.
Ruby back on board now and at 10-1 seems good value.

Uncle Junior finished 3rd in the end which at 10-1 is all good.
Finished very fast but I felt he was given too much to do by Ruby Walsh. Ruby has not been riding very well on horses i've backed lately. Too far off the pace to win.

I dont believe he would have beaten Muirhead anyway in the race but could have been a lot closer.

Going to have a few very small bets on the match to make it that bit more interesting:D

All first goal scorer bets done each way at 1/3 of the odds and 5 places.

Kevin Doyle .50 pts each way 5-1
Aiden McGeady .25 pts each way 8-1
Richard Dunne .25pts each way 20-1

Come on Ireland!!!

Kevin Doyle almost scored with his back heel.

Aiden McGeady should have scored with his great chance.

Richard Dunne Scored! So I got 6.4 or so to 1 as I had it each way.

Small profit of 3 pts but any profit is good profit!

10 Pts win Clondaw Warrior @ 2-1

Got a tip from the stable and is normally dependable. Has good form too and trainer is flying.

INEEDANID

Round Tom - 1pt each way @ 7-1

Small bet to start the day.

Has good form and looks fit. Money for him which is a good sign.

INEEDANID

Billie Magern 2.50 pts e/w @ 5-1

A horse I have been following with a while. Will go close

INEEDANID

One for joules 2.79 pts win @ 3-1

A horse i have won on before and has a nice weight in this race.
Money for him too which is a good sign

INEEDANID

Hennessy .50 pts e/w @16-1

An open race and I think Hennessy at 16-1 represents value. Not seen for a long time but Im going to take a chance anyway!

INEEDANID

Excelebration - Has shown good form of late and was only beaten a couple lengths by Frankel before. Worth another shot.
1 pt each way @ 13-2

Would have backed Frankel at a better price.

INEEDANID

Balthazar King
Bet in running at 2-1 as missed the start of the race.

Would have went for Chicago Grey but trainer doesnt seem to be going great right now and Balthazar king could take advantage of this.

INEEDANID

Dubai Price - 1.50 pts e/w @ 9-2 without so you think

This horse could be a star. Lightly raced and I think is good value without the favourite.

INEEDANID

Cockney Trucker 1pt e/w @ 6-1

Has good form. In an open race. 4th in the county hurdle which shows he will handle Cheltenham.

INEEDANID

Toubab

A fine horse last year and has a good chance of taking this race. The danger would be Zaynar who lost his way a bit.

10 pts win @ 13/8

INEEDANID

14:50 Cork - Black Benny 5 pts e/w @ 4-1
Looks to be a decent prospect and should go well today in a competitive race.

17:50 Naas - Murchu 10 pts win @ 2-1
The horse that I backed in the bumper yesterday in Cheltenham that won was worked against this fellow and finished about 2 lengths ahead. Based on that he will go close today.

15:30 20pts win Masterminded @ 4-9

Masterminded jumped badly yesterday and was a poor third.

I also had 5 pts e/w on Coolking in the bumper at Galway yesterday who was third.

Total loss for the day 5 pts/

15:45 Galway 1pt e/w on Abarta @10-1
An open race this horse has handled bad ground at Galway before. Paul Townend who always gives his horses a chance is on board.

Disappointed by this one, finished second. I thought Ruby went to quick and judged the pace wrong. He's not riding the best at the moment in my opinion, either too far back or going too quick.
