100 Bets to Broke Flat Season

    Ill be reducing my stakes and leaving the sprint handicaps out of it this year, so as not to give away all my NH profit during the flat season.

    Doncaster 2:35

    Jack Dexter
    should be favourite for this in my view. He has won and been 3rd in this with a 5lbs penalty last year and has plenty of very decent form on better ground despite his preference for softer. 13/2 with Stan James is too big to ignore.

    1 Point win 13/2 Stan James

    Doncaster 3:10


    I’m going to go with small win bets in these big field handicaps for most of the flat season, and in this I’m going with a couple of outsiders. Boots & Spurs showed well a few times in a light campaign last year and with some decent form fresh he looks worth a small bet at 36 in Betfair. In addition im pretty sure that Burano has a decent run in one of these this year and after a pipe opener lately on the AW he may well outrun his price here.

    ½ Point win Boots & Spurs 36 Betfair

    ½ Point win Burano 25/1 Generally

    Doncaster 3:45

    Bertiewhittle
    has been a popular bet for a couple of years now without winning but generally running well. He is a forgotton horse today and looks as if the step up in trip will probably suit him. He is down to a mark he is well proven off in these big field handicaps and at 60 on Betfair with a decent record fresh I won’t be missing that. I’m also going with a min bet on Don’t Call me, who has run enough decent races of this and higher mark to justify a small bet at 80 no Betfair.

    1 Point win Bertiewhittle 60 Betfair

    ½ Point win Don’t Call me 80 Betfair

    I’m afraid I can’t resist 8/1 about Sole Power here. This race isn’t as good as last year and the fav look overrated. He has run well here in the past, not as bad as Is generally thought and a repeat of last year’s run may get him very close here.

    1 Point win 8/1 Generally

    I had tried to convince myself to finally stop backing him blindly, nearly didn't back him at Ascot. Fair due, you and another chap on the other board convinced me to put a couple of quid on SP today. Was encouraged by what fast Eddie said in the press, but, still. Well done.

    2:25 Musselburgh.

    In his last flat race Buthelezi was only a length of Hidden Gold trying to give him 9 lbs here in September. That hoses probably a 100 rated animal now and is vying for favouritism in the big stayers race in Lingfield today at odd of 5/2. Buthelezi was also running well until falling in a good 2m chase here again this winter. He looks to me as if he is coming nicely back to form and given his current mark of 88 and his peak rating of over 100 he is dangerous to discard here at a huge looking 20/1.

    1 Point win 20/1 Generally.

    got 14/1 on PP

    Aidan. I really do owe you Pints from the last thread and this one


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,474 ✭✭✭longshotvalue


    put this in the wrong tread at first

    Newbury 3:25

    I’m going to go with a couple of big price min bet darts here. Excellent Guest has a decent record fresh and can win of this mark. Ascot may be his best course but at 60 on Betfair he is value here. Pearl Ice is a gut feeling selection. He is on a workable mark and showed me something last time out after a year off. He is 65

    ½ Point win Excellent Guest 60 Betfair
    ½ Point win Pearl Ice 65 Betfair


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,474 ✭✭✭longshotvalue


    Epson 3:55

    I’ll be keeping stakes small during the flat season this year but it’s hard to resist a small bet on Sennockian Star in this race. He won this race last year of only 1 lb lower and went on to win again later on last year of another 4lbs higher. We can safely ignore his last bad run as he has multiple times in the past ran poorly before a big improvement. 12/1 is value.

    ½ Point win 12/1 Generally

    Epson 2:10

    Swiss Cros
    s has never run a bad race here and off his lowest mark for a long time he’s bound to pop up soon enough so why not here at a half decent 11/1. He is drawn reasonably as well, and as with a lot of these sprints he will need a bit of luck on his side.

    ½ Point win 11/1 Betvictor & Will Hill

    Yes, Shennokian Star has course form,(backed him last year)the others bar Fire fighting are just coming back,and front running tactics may suit and yes on a nice weight, but he's out of form and it's going to be good to firm

    I'm more interested to see how Christophermarlowe does in the Derby trial. Trap trial but, should make the distance, Frankie is on form too


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 679 ✭✭✭Lt J.R. Bell


    I know the Derby Trial is not a good indication of Derby potential, I know that trial race was weak, but keep an eye in Christophermarlowe this year. He could be anything.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,474 ✭✭✭longshotvalue


    Ripon 3:25

    Arnold Lane
    looks to have been underestimated after a half decent return. If he should strip fitter here he looks well overpriced at 22/1 on Skybet. He is down to a workable mark after a long time probably too high. He should be winning soon enough.

    1 Point win 22/1 Skybet

    Haydock 3:30

    Emell
    has proved a shock at a huge price before and it may be dangerous to let him off here at 25/1. The handicapper has relented somewhat and given his patchy profile it easy enough to ignore the Lincoln run. I think he is worth a risk at 25/1 In case he decided to put It in here.

    1 Point win 25/1 Sky/365

    Goodwood 2:50

    Most of Pastoral Players decent runs over the last few years have been first time out and if he is ever going to repay a bit of faith today is the day. 12/1 isn’t exactly knocking my socks off for huge value but there is still a bit of margin in it, so I’ll go for him today. If he can’t have a decent shout today of this mark with a 7lbs claimer on, he may never.

    1 Point win 12/1 Generally


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 679 ✭✭✭Lt J.R. Bell


    That false rail at Newmarket and new stall position looks nasty, especially with front runners there. If they are hold up horses , they might be screwed, though the wind is crashing into their face

    Entire 3 year old season,? don't think so.he ran a few but not the main ones due to the set back. Perfectly possible a half decent 3 year old can come out and do better as an older horse. I am not as critical about today's race,first time out. Last though, come on... Noble Mission destroyed him twice last year


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,474 ✭✭✭longshotvalue


    Newmarket 3:00

    Stakes will be low in these print handicaps this year but I’ll still have to put up a few at huge prices in case of the bomb dropping at some stage.

    Swiss Cross looks to be improving again after a decent run last time and is down to his last winning mark. That win has worked out well and shows he is capable of running a big race in a big handicap at some stage soon. 50/1 with 5 places on Bet365 is worth a small gamble.

    ½ Point EW 50/1 5 places Bet365


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,474 ✭✭✭longshotvalue


    3:10 Chester Cup

    This looks a tough race which is to be expected. I’m going to have to with a bit of a no no here in that my selection Mubaraza is drawn wide. In reality that shouldn’t make much of a difference here once he can get some kind of position early. He really was good at the start of last year and showed signs of a return to form on his seasonal reappearance this year as well. He was 4th in this last year of the same mark and I feel he can bridge the gap here with some of those ahead of him a lot higher in the weights. 14/1 looks the best value on offer at the moment.

    1 Point win 14/1 Generally.

    3:45 Ascot

    I love these big field Ascot Handicaps, and this looks like a typical minefield tomorrow. A couple stick out for me at big prices. Professor is certainly capable of this mark judging by his run last year in the Wokingham of a higher mark. He came back to form last time out when second to Emell and is still 6 lbs lower than that Wokingham run. I thought he would be shorter here that 25/1 so that looks value. Hawkeyethenoo also caught the eye a bit in the same race and he is in here of a very low mark with a 7lbs claimer on. I think he will out run his 40/1 odds.

    Haydock 2:00

    Rebellious Guest has been in good form on the all-weather lately and if he can stay this trip , which has looked likely on a few occasions ,he might outrun his big price here. His 3rd in the Roseberry when staying on over 11 furlongs give him a decent shout here if he can transfer that to turf. He’s worth the risk at a big looking 25/1 from a trainer who likes to have winners here.

    1 Point win 25/1 Various

    was backed last time and although he didn’t finish out his race that well, he is just back down to his winning turf mark and I would be at all surprised if he showed up well here. The slightly softer ground should help. This race looks a weak enough affair.

    Leopardstown 3:40

    I think there is a bit of underestimating here in the AOB second String Cradle Mountain. Order of St George is the first string but he hasn’t run yet this year which is a complete no no for that stable. Cradle Mountain beat what looks a good yardstick last time out and although he will lose the 7lbs claim on in this race he is no 20/1 shot.

    Sebadee
    is one that did me a few favours in the past. He is underestimated here and this trip ground and course are all in his favour. He travelled well in the big Hunter Chase at Punchestown before fading late over too far. He has a good record around here at 25/1 is too big.

    York 2:10

    Indy
    looks one of the most unexposed in this field and there was plenty to like about his seasonal reappearance until he ran out of steam which is probably understandable. His 3yo form is also very good and if he can move on from his seasonal debut here when a bit fitter he can get involved at a big looking 20/1. I’m also going to have a tiny bet at a huge price on Sir Jack Layden . He was a very good 2yo and perhaps suffered for his Meyden trip as a 3yo. He can also improve for his seasonal reappearance here at a big price.

    1 Point win Indy 20/1 Various
    ½ Point win Sir Jack Layden 50/1 Various

    York 2:40

    Blaine
    has an excellent course record to say the least with 3 wins around here. He was poor last time but that can be ignored with sprinting as poor runs are regular in these races. A mark of 100 in well within his grasp judging by his runs last year and 25/1 with 5 places looks huge.

    1 Point EW 25/1 5 Places Paddy Power

    York 3:15

    Caspar Netscher
    has been running well the last year or so at the highest level and on his day is well capable of winning this race. The race terms aren’t the best for him but he looks a good few points too big at 25/1. Also I think Gathering Power may be an improver this year judging by what I saw last year and on her reappearance. I don’t think the ground will be in her favour here but at 33/1 ill have a min bet just in case as she was my original selection and changing minds leads to frustration.

    1 Point win Caspar Netscher 25/1 Various
    ½ Point win Gathering Power 33/1 VArious
