** 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 as to whether I stick with my predictions or not.

My new system, Doc’s Fav Goldmine, is showing plenty of promise and I have had several winners on the spin. My small stakes are increasing in size, due to a constant supply of winning selections 🙂 My DFG Bank is now really building nicely. Any losses do hit hard, as it’s 10% of the Betting Bank, but has always caught up rapidly before moving ahead again.

I 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 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 totalling 1.25 or above will hit your Daily Target. A profit of 2.5% per day will double you Bank in a month.

STAY SAFE FELLAS.

TODAY’S “JOCKEY OF THE DAY” : Hugh Bonneville. 19.10. Worcester. “No Ordinary Joe.”

TODAY’S HRP SELECTIONS

TRIPLER

14.05 – Haydock – Dandalla. (60) – Major opposition in the form of Twilight Spinner, so I’m not overly confident ours will pull it off. SPLIT.

19.10 – Worcester – No Ordinary Joe. (70) – Hugh Bonneville takes a break from treading the boards to saddle up on our selection. Only 3 runners although Fire Away has some good form. Hugh will finish first and carry on running to his stables at Downton Abbey. WIN.

19.20 – Catterick – Blind Beggar. (62) – That little rascal, former milkman, Freddie Garrity, who wrote many of the 1960’s most wonderful and melodic songs rides ours today. Freddie will dance and jig his way past our major opponent, Touchwood. So for me, Little Fred will WIN.

OBAD

19.10 – Worcester – No Ordinary Joe. (70) – See Above.

RATCHET – Instructions for use: http://bit.ly/35tpfR

DOC’S FAV GOLDMINE – All selections are in the PLACE market, unless otherwise stated. Stop at a profit of 2.5% per day. (Or as near as.) Use 10% of your Bank as stake. If a loss happens, keep to the last stake and not 10% of the new, reduced Bank.

I am also 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 totalling 1.25 or above will hit your Daily Target. A profit of 2.5% per day will double you 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.

If you want to, you can omit any bets with odds below 1.25 (or thereabouts) and just concentrate on the bets over those odds. This reduces the number of bets but means if you get a winner, you have hit your target and can stop betting for the day, not having to risk any more money on another race.

If you prefer, I have highlighted in BOLD the DFG “Selection Of The Day” if you just want one bet.

13.10 – Goodwood – Fall Of Rome. (1.16 – 6 – 2)

16.25 – Haydock – Wink Of An Eye. (1.39 – 9 – 3)

19.20 – Catterick – Blind Beggar. (1.24 – 10 – 2) 2 TBP.

19.50 – Catterick – Ehrmann. (1.51 – 7 – 2)

YESTERDAY’S SUMMARY

Apart from the 3rd Race on Tripler, the other 2 selections both came in for us, so Job Done before Race 3 let us down. (You should have stopped after Race 2.) There was a loss on OBAD, but Ratchet came good after the 1st 2 races, so similarly to Tripler, you should have stopped for the day.

Doc’s Fav Goldmine had a nice success in Race 1 and beat my 2.5% target for the day. The fact that the remaining races were a bit up and down didn’t matter as I stopped after hitting my target.

My target from the outset was to try for a profit of 2.5% a day. If I did this, I would double my Betting Bank by the end of the month. Yesterday was the 20th of the month and I am currently standing at 201.23% of the month’s Starting Bank. That means I have hit my target for the month after only 3 weeks. Things – hopefully – are going in the right direction and my ultimate goal is by my birthday in October, I will be able to make monthly withdrawals from Betfair and be looking forward to a wonderful Christmas. Something we’ve not had for quite a few years.

Great performance from our Jockey of the Day, Helen Skelton, who came 2nd and provided a terrific ride.
