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

STAY SAFE FELLAS.

Big “Well Done” to England for last night’s victory. Every game they have played I have screamed at Southgate to drag Raheem Sterling off and what does he do? Score AGAIN! Next stop, Rome against Ukraine.

As it’s the last day of the month, I will publish a summary of June’s betting tomorrow.

As The HRP is a worldwide phenomenon, I am reaching out to the world to teach a new language every day. Today’s Jockey of the Day is in Esperanto.

JOCKEO De La TAGO: Terry Scott. 14.55. Musselburgh. De Mazzaro.

Our old chum Big Terry is all set to “Carry On Winning.” Terry, a genius in the world of Shakesperean theatre as well as being a part-time funny man is all set to team up with Trainer, June Whitfield, and Stable Boy, Hugh Lloyd. This wonder trio will romp home chuckling all the way. Big Terry, a keen astrophysicist and fan of both molecular science and nuclear particle structure, will show the others a clean pair of heels and “Carry On Laughing All The Way To The Post.” Ride ’em Tezza!

TODAY’S HRP SELECTIONS

TRIPLER

16.40 – Tipperary – Orinoco River. (62) – A bit raw, this horse has a lot in the tank and is set for big improvements. WIN.

16.50 – Worcester – Chasamax. (58) – This is going to be very close between ours and Kentucky Hardboot. 10 runners and half-decent Place Odds mean I will be opting for a SPLIT.

18.45 – Tipperary – Maritime Wings. (57) – A 7-furlong sprint with only 5 runners. There are a few other recent debutants opposing ours who have shown plenty of promise. With excellent Place Odds for such a small field, I’m going for a SPLIT.

OBAD

16.40 – Tipperary – Orinoco River. (62) – 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.)

14.45 – Thirsk – Zagato. (1.12 – 12 – 3) You may want to give this a miss or consider 2 TBP at 1.22.

14.55 – Musselburgh – De Mazzaro. (1.36 – 11 – 3)

15.30 – Musselburgh – Tadreeb. (1.31 – 5 – 2)

YESTERDAY’S SUMMARY

As The HRP is a worldwide phenomenon, I am reaching out to the world to teach a new language every day. Today’s Jockey of the Day is in Dutch.

JOCKEY VAN DE DAG: Edwina Currie. 14.00. Brighton. Almandrina.

Edwina is pictured above chatting about her time in John Major’s cabinet, (She actually WAS in his drinks cabinet at the time, hiding from the paps.) Edwina is all set for a good old romp today. There’s nothing she likes better than to mix it with the blokes and loves getting down and dirty. However, today, Eddie will be riding in a maroon and blue strapless Stella McCartney number, with Prada boots. Obviously, she will be carrying her favourite whip in her Louis Vuitton handbag. John loves that whip.

RESULT – 2nd. Good old Edwina grabbed a nice 2nd place. I don’t think she even used her whip, which greatly disappointed Mr. Major. Great stamina Edwina.

I had to run my wife to the hospital for her fortnightly check-up at the Eye Unit, so after I did my post, I didn’t have time/chance to find out that the Hamilton meeting had been abandoned. However, it left one selection on which I selected a win. The horse duly obliged with a nice 1st place so wins on Tripler, OBAD, and Ratchet.

Doc’s Fav Goldmine had 4 selections today. Race 1 came 2nd, so a nice win there. After Betfair’s commission, I was just under target for the day. Should I go for the next race or call it a day? Well, there were only 4 runners, ours was the favourite and the place odds were awesome for a 4 horse race. I went for it and it too came 2nd. It gave me a nice 6.67% profit for the day so I stopped. (Race 3 also won but the selection for Race 4 was duff!) 6.67% a day will do nicely 🙂 More tea Vicar?
