Winners! Winners! Winners!

[Danny]

The topic title is what I’m aiming for although in reality it will probably be the complete opposite!

1.30 Newbury – Minella for Steak 2pts Win (11/1 Stan J)

Not often you see a horse which has won it’s last two races and is being ridden by AP at 11/1, Boylesports are as low as 7/1, it is a 21 runner handicap but I’m willing to risk a few quid on the Champ getting yet another winner.

[Danny]

Just one more for the minute

2.40 Newbury –

Easter Meteor

2pts Win (Bet Vic 13/2)

13/2 is to big a price for a horse who potentially could have won the Paddy Power if he’d have stood up, as long as his confidence hasn’t been to badly affected he has a solid chance here.

[Danny]

Easter Meteor was unlucky finishing 2nd, there is surely a big race in him if he jumps round cleanly.

Bad Start with no winners leaving me on -4

Just one bet for today:

12:30 Bangor –

Swatow Typhoon

4pts Win (Coral 3/1)

Backed this horse a few times previously over hurdles and he’s won for me so going in again, the race is the Ginger Mccain memorial novice chase so you would imagine his sons runner should go very close as its a race id imagine he’d want to win.

[Venture to Cognac]

Good luck with the thread Danny.

Cheers VTC the way its going I need it!

Swatow Typhoon could only finish 3rd so it leaves me on -8

12:40 Plumpton –

Join The Clan

2pts Win (Stan James 13/2)

AP on board for the first time after the horse ran a promising race last time out despite being hampered early on. 9/2 with most firms Stan James going a stand out 13/2 thats worth a go imo.

2:40 Plumpton –

Old Magic

2pts Win (Bet Vic 15/2)

After my losing start, one could say I need a bit of magic, hopefully this old fella provides it! Was fancied last time out when Beaten Fav, didn’t run a bad race and I get the feeling his time is near.

[Danny]

-12! Old Magic was 12th and beat only one horse home

12:15 Southwell –

Bennys Well

(Will H 11/4)

Given a bit of time off after a poor run last time, has a strong chance if runs up to form prior to that run.

[Danny]

-14

2:40 Wincanton –

Prompter

4pts Win (4/1 Various)

[Danny]

2 seconds in a row -18.

1.50 Sandown –

Grandouet

4pts Win @ 7/2 (Will Hill)
2.40 Aintree –

Unioniste

4pts Win @ 9/2 (Bet Vic)

[Danny]

Managed to get the hat trick of seconds with Grandouet, Luckily Unioniste then went on to finally get me a winner!

Stakes – 26 pts
Returns – 22 pts
Profit –

-4 pts

1.30 Huntingdon –

Prompter

4pts Win @ 4/1 (Various)

Backed this guy last week when Elsworth was aboard looked all over the winner from 2 out yet just got outbattled in the end. With McCoy in the saddle today I can’t see history repeating itself. Big chance!

2.00 Huntingdon –

Ghizao

2pts Win @ 8/1 (Various)

Goes well fresh and the stable are in good form at the moment seems better value than the first few in the market Capt Chris (Trip on the short side + Top Weight) Riverside Thearte (Poor form last year)

[Danny]

Stakes – 32 pts
Returns – 22 pts
Profit –

-10 pts

McCoy wasn’t at his best on Prompter gave the horse far to much to do in my opinion and Elsworth wasn’t at his best on the horse previous to that either, potentially they have a race in mind for him hence being careful with his mark.

2.10 Cheltenham –

Thearte Guide

4 pts @ 4/1 (Will Hill)

Running off a 2lb higher mark than he did in the Hennessy, that won’t be enough to stop him here today, just as long as he isn’t still feeling the effects of that race.

3.45 Cheltenham –

Garde La Victorie

4 pts @ 11/4 (Will Hill)

Unbeaten in 3 starts including when having bumper second Regal Encore behind him. The Pipe horse should make a race of it but I’m banking on Dickie Johnson getting this one home!

[Danny]

Stakes – 40 pts
Returns – 22 pts
Profit –

Another Two seconds yesterday, Thearte Guide looked to have the race at his mercy two out, he looks a bit of a thinker and I personally think he had a bit left in the tank. Garde was then narrowly beaten also.

3.35 Cheltenham –

More of That
