** 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.
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. As the stake is 10% of the Betting Bank, any losses do hit hard but 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 Albert Einstein is supposed to have said:
“Compound Interest is the 8th Wonder Of The World.”
STAY SAFE FELLAS.
TODAY’S “JOCKEY DES TAGES”: Hannibal Heyes. 14.00. Curragh. Cheerupsleepyjean.
Hannibal is still on the run from those pesky lawmen in the U.S of A. So much so, he has been running away from them for the last 123 years and has, therefore, built up plenty of horse riding experience. He left his buddy, Kid Curry, in a Texas prison cell to jet over to the Emerald Isle to compete in this one. All that travel must mean he’s confident in finishing first. C’mon Hannibal, don’t let us down.
TODAY’S HRP SELECTIONS
TRIPLER
13.20 – Uttoxeter – Ambassador. (59) – Some pretty low HRP scores today, but this fella is the pick of a small bunch. WIN.
14.00 – Curragh – Cheerupsleeyjean. (47) – Had a decent run at Ascot recently. Only 4 runners and ours looks to be the form pick, especially with Hannibal Heyes on board. WIN.
16.10 – Curragh – Passion. (55) – Our old commentator buddy, Brian Moore, is taking a break from the Euros and rides ours today. I think Brian will be a bit rusty but will manage to finish in the Top 3. SPLIT.
OBAD
13.20 – Uttoxeter – Ambassador. (59) – 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 occurs, keep to the last stake and not 10% of the new, reduced Bank.
Where possible, I am also showing the early Place Odds in brackets, along 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.
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. (It also means, however, if you get a loser, there will be fewer races left to recoup any losses.)
No selections meet my strict criteria today. I treat this as a business, just as Gav has always said. We are not here to gamble; that’s for losers. We are all here to make a profit and I for one, do not simply search the markets just to “have a bet.” I only place bets on those runners which after applying my strict formula, fit the bill. I would really like to have a bet or two today as I enjoy the thrill of seeing my profits rise. But I am prepared to wait until tomorrow to make the odds of my winning a lot better.
YESTERDAY’S SUMMARY
Not a bad day, all told. On Tripler, we came a cropper in Race 1, but the next 2 races provided 2 winners. This meant a good day for OBAD, Race 1 cost us on Ratchet but races 2 & 3 caught up some of the initial loss.
Doc’s Fav Goldmine only had 1 selection and it came in first. I had other stuff on today so I had to take an early price. Later in the day, you could have got much better odds, but I’m not arguing: I still made 3.32% on the day. 🙂
