** House Notes** Be careful if races start close to each other. You may not get the results of the race you placed a bet on before the next race starts, so do try to either watch a Live Feed of the race or “watch” the race in real-time at Betfair. **

For Tripler, OBAD, and Ratchet, I use the 3 selections generated by the HRP software, assess each one, and then say what I am going to do. Obviously, you can make your own decisions as to what you think the outcomes will be. Sometimes, the result of a previous race will dictate whether I stick with my predictions or not. The automated HRP spreadsheet determines your next stake, based on the result of the previous race and is geared at helping you hit your daily target.

My new system, Doc’s Fav Goldmine, is coming along nicely and I have had many winners on the spin. My small stakes have increased in size, due to a constant supply of winning selections 🙂 My DFG Bank is now really building nicely. I only started keeping accurate records since April 1st, 2021. In the first 3 months, my Bank has increased 630.77%. However, as the stake is 10% of the Betting Bank, any losses do hit hard but I have always caught up rapidly before moving ahead again.

I ALWAYS stop betting if I hit my target of 2.5% (or as near as dammit.) Use your common sense – if you get close to your personal target, it’s your decision as to whether you want to carry on & go for it. Personally, I learned the harsh lesson of being greedy, and many times, when just under my target, I have “Gone for it,” only to lose the lot chasing bigger profits.

It’s your call as to whether you take the early odds, hoping they will then go down, or wait until nearer the off hoping the odds have increased. The key thing to remember is a winner (or winners) at odds totaling 1.25 or above will hit your Daily Target. A profit of 2.5% per day will double your Bank in a month.

As a non-horse racing expert, it still amazes me that in a race with only 4, 5, or 6 runners where there is a massive favourite, you can still occasionally pick up superb Place Odds in excess of those required to hit your target. To my horse racing thicko’s mind, this is what I call a NO BRAINER.

 

As Albert Einstein allegedly said: “Compound Interest is the 8th Wonder Of The World.”

 

STAY SAFE FELLAS.

 

** NB. A SPLIT bet is normally divided into 25% for the WIN and 75% for the PLACE. (ie. 1/3.) If I mention a 2/2 split, it means 50% for the WIN and 50% for the PLACE. **

 

TODAY’S HRP SELECTIONS

 

TRIPLER

13.10 – Wolverhampton – Famous Star. (64) – With Place Odds over 1.50, I’m looking at a SPLIT.

13.20 – Hexham – Aazza. (107) – Showed a lot of guts to win on debut and this race is nowhere near as strong, so it’s a WIN.

17.30 – Kempton – Western Writer. (64) – The one to beat. Depending on previous results. Probably a SPLIT but if necessary to hit target, I will be going for a WIN.

 

OBAD

13.20 – Hexham – Aazza. (107) – Showed a lot of guts to win on debut and this race is nowhere near as strong, so it’s a WIN.

 

RATCHET – Same selections as Tripler but in the PLACE MARKET. Instructions for use: http://bit.ly/35tpfR

 

DOC’S FAV GOLDMINE

• All selections are in the PLACE market.
• Stop at a profit of 2.5% per day. (Or as near as.)
• Use 10% of your Bank as stake.
• If a loss occurs, keep to the last stake and not 10% of the new, reduced Bank.

I am showing the early Place Odds in brackets together with the number of runners and the number of horses to be placed. It’s your decision as to whether or not you take the early odds or wait, hoping they will increase. The key thing to remember is a winner/winners at odds totaling 1.25 or above will hit your Daily Target. A profit of 2.5% per day will double your Bank every month.

Please be prepared to change your line of thinking – “on the hoof” so to speak – if the odds move dramatically. They may drift, thus making the selection a “No Bet”, or the odds may steam in, making it not worth taking the risk.

From now on, I will now show the odds for the EXTRA PLACE (and occasionally, 2 TBP)  if the prices have merit. This is for those who want a little extra security and are prepared to accept lower odds for the Extra Place, and better odds if it’s well fancied on the 2 TBP market.

13.20 – Hexham – Aazza. (1.20 – 7 – 2)

14.00 – Lingfield – Naturally High. (2 TBP at 1.24)

15.10 – Wolverhampton – Abnaa. (1.39 – 11 – 3) 4 TBP at 1.24.

16.30 – Kempton – Tangled Words. (1.62 – 7 – 2) 3 TBP at 1.29.

 

 

YESTERDAY’S SUMMARY

Considering we’re in between 2 storms, we had a great day’s results. I went for three Split Bets on Tripler and we had a race 1 winner followed by two places, which were also Split Bets. Wins also for OBAD and Ratchet.

Doc’s Fav Goldmine didn’t have any bets. There was only one selection which I filtered out but the Place Odds were below 1.10 so I thought it wiser to keep my money in the bank and look again tomorrow.

 

TRIPLER

12.00 – Uttoxeter – Get A Tonic. (71) – Harry Skeleton rides ours and despite being favourite, there are 11 runners in this hurdle race and with decent Place Odds, I’m going for a SPLIT. RESULT – 1st.

12.20 – Fontwell – Oceanline. (49) – A recent disappointment means I’m going for another SPLIT. RESULT – 3rd.

15.30 – Uttoxeter – Hidor De Bersy. (54) – Similar to Race 1 so it’s a SPLIT. RESULT – 3rd.

 

OBAD

12.00 – Uttoxeter – Get A Tonic. (71) – Harry Skeleton rides ours and despite being favourite, there are 11 runners in this hurdle race and with decent Place Odds, I’m going for a SPLIT. RESULT – 1st.

 

RATCHET – RESULTS – 1st, 3rd, 3rd.

 

DOC’S FAV GOLDMINE

Only 1 selection came close to my criteria, but the Place Odds are too low for me to bet on. So today, with yet another soddin’ storm approaching, I won’t be betting. (I just got a message from an old school friend who lives in Spain who said it’s 19 degrees and sunny. Bugger!!)
