    Hope somebody got on Russian Bullet.

    Nothing tomorrow for Crowley but Richard Hughes is back in action for his father-in-law Richard Hannon at Lingfield. He's there for just one ride on board Numeral (on which Jim Crowley has won in the past) in the 3.55 so I'll be having a bet in-shop on him. Forecast price is around 10/1, I can see that disappearing.

    George Baker is also there for just one again, Dorothy's Dancing in the 2.50.

    These will be my two bets for tomorrow depending on price but in the main I'm waiting impatiently for Crowley to get back in the saddle.

    Three today at Kempton

    8.20 Lazer Blazer €5 @ 7/2

    8.50 Bahri Sheen €2.50 e/w @ 14/1

    9.20 Performing Pocket €5 @ 7/2

    Zilch.

    One today in Kempton

    4.50 Bravo Echo €2.50 e/w @ 16/1

    Balance €110. (used the small change to test something that Boyles wouldn't let me do, PP allowed it but I didn't win the 15 million I'd hoped for :D:D:D)


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,570 ✭✭✭MyStubbleItches


    Bravo Echo comes second at 16/1

    Two at Kempton today

    3.40 Hamilton Hill €2.50 e/w @ 6/1

    4.10 Finesse €2.50 e/w @ 8/1


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,570 ✭✭✭MyStubbleItches


    No joy today.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,570 ✭✭✭MyStubbleItches


    Four rides tomorrow at Kempton but just one priced up so far.

    8.25 Ellie In The Pink €5 @ 9/2

    Will add the rest in the morning.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,570 ✭✭✭MyStubbleItches


    5.20 King Vahe €5 @ 11/2

    5.55 Zuzu Angel €5 @ 5/1

    6.55 Lazer Blazer €5 @ 11/2

    So at least one has to win or it's a bit of a disaster. Betting seems to be tight enough so even though these three are all around the 5/1 mark, they still have 3 or 4 above them in the market. Ellie in the Pink is currently fav but it's a competitive race. Fingers crossed, will need a bit of luck to come out with profit today.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,570 ✭✭✭MyStubbleItches


    Nothing from those. Laser Blazer finished second. Form now reads 3322 for last four runs so might lump on next time!!

    Very disappointed to be in negative territory again.

    Balance €92.50

    One today in Kempton

    7.30 Shalambar €5 @ 3/1

    Who do you bet with? PP have insured win bets which might be worth switching to as a place finish will return the stake.

    Yeah this log is all with PP. I haven't looked at that, my betting knowledge is fairly limited. I suppose I want to keep things simple in a way. Ultimately I want to see how worthwhile it is to follow Crowley, I want to see if it would be worth devoting a bigger bankroll of a grand or two to see if it might pay for a holiday or car tax or whatever. Nothing's guaranteed, I know, but he's been good for my pocket over the last few years and I want to see how I'd do with regimented, disciplined betting.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,570 ✭✭✭MyStubbleItches


    Felt under pressure after Great Huzzar and Rodeo gave 100% successful tips on their logs! Crowley delivered to make sure today's logs on this forum were unbeaten. Shalambar was returned at 4/1 and seems to have won well.

    Balance €112.50


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,570 ✭✭✭MyStubbleItches


    Three tomorrow at Lingfield. Only one priced atm.

    4.10 Desert Strike €5 @ 10/3

    3.00 Jake The Snake €2.50 e/w @ 6/1 (1/4 odds 1,2)

    5.20 Bedibyes €2.50 e/w @ 12/1


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,570 ✭✭✭MyStubbleItches


    Not great today, Jake the Snake drifted a lot and his run reflected this. Was always struggling and couldn't match the rest.

    I thought Desert Strike was unlucky twice, seeming to get held up behind horses twice, the second time he looked primed for a burst and a gap that seemed to be opening closed again denying him a run.

    Bedibyes ran a cracker, held up off the pace and staying on well down the rail in the last furlong. A little gamesmanship might have seen him close off the Hanagan horse's run to win but Crowley ain't like that I guess. Still, I'll take 2nd gladly.

    Balance €106


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,570 ✭✭✭MyStubbleItches


    Two in Lingfield in a Listed race and a Group 3. Tempted to have a handy e/w double on these two in-shop. We'll see.

    2.55 Oasis Dancer €5 @7/2 (current fav)

    3.25 Emerald Wilderness €2.50 e/w @ 20/1


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,570 ✭✭✭MyStubbleItches


    Didn't see the races but it looks like they were worse than bad.

    Balance €96

    Two today at Lingfield

    2.15 Slam €2.50 e/w @ 15/2

    4.15 Caledonia Princess €2.50 e/w @ 6/1

    Slam pinched 2nd place on the line.

    Nothing til tomorrow.

    8.40 True Prince €2.50 e/w @ 15/2

    Couldn't resist a €5 e/w acc on these plus Rodeo's two selections in-shop. €600k plus was hard to resist. :eek:

    A day of close but no cigar with 3 seconds. Gutted.
