The only observation I can make from my own experience, is that when you have these threads, there’s definitely the temptation to put up a bet, or indeed only put the bet on, because you have a thread. It’s a hard one I bet Alamein the other night, and was close to putting on a forecast just for the sake of it, because I have my Exacta thread. Glad I didn’t cause the other one got stuffed too lol

The good news is though that in the DLAP section you’re amongst like minded people, and there is no pressure, and there are no digs if you go through a rough patch.

Thanks for the input and encouragement VTC. I understand what you are saying in the part I have boldest above. I have tried to avoid it by only updating the thread when I definitely have a bet even if the last bet was a winner and I am itching to update the running total.

I think a bigger problem for me is when I have 3-4 in the tracker and I might really fancy two of them but can’t stop myself putting in one of the lesser fancied ones in case it fell in and I missed a big price winner.

Funnily enough a couple of times after doing this I have reined myself in the next day and missed a couple of winners so should probably just decide on a max number on any day(2) and stick to it.

Cheers VTC, Heading dangerously back towards the red and probably having a bet or two too many. I’ll do a quarterly review at the end of the month that will no doubt throw up a few areas to improve on.

I had a terrible time of it last year at this meeting, but one of the few highlights was this race, nabbing Bossy Guest 6 places each way at 80’s, and he stopped the meeting being a total disaster for me.

After having serious problems coming out of the stalls, he’s looked back to his best this year, and I can easily see him going close again this year, and he does like it here when actually in the mood. Taken a bit of the 33’s, more win than each way, and if he does line up in this, I’ll take advantage of the 6 places on the day, albeit at lower odds no doubt. Very keen on him, and he looks overpriced to me.

I’ll definitely add another Ante-Post, and these catch the eye at the moment……..

GM Hopkins 25’s
Another Touch 33’s
Master The World 33’s
Accession (weather dependent) 33’s
Dolphin Vista 33’s
Bravery 33’s
Hasanour 50’s
Bornze Angel 40’s

Fair bit of work required to pick the bones out of that lot (not to mention all the others), but if I thought it was a serious target, then Von Blucher @ 50’s looks very big as well…….I’ve just talked myself into him, so it’s

Bossy Guest 33’s
Von Blucher 50’s

for me, with one other to be added no doubt.

GL

Sadly Hasanour is no more VTC.

Edit………….very sad news about him Circles, I heard last week, but didn’t know what happened. Hope he didn’t suffer.
