Winning Racing Tips Day 66-72 Monday 5th JulyEach Way Value: 2.15 Newton Abbot 4. Unleashed 0.5pt e/w (9/2 Betfred*/Betinternet* or 5/1 Sportingbet, 4/1 ok) 2.15 Newton Abbot 10. Tuppenny Piece 0.2pt e/w (14/1 StanJames*/Betfred*) The strategy here is to take on the top two in the market with the 3rd and 4th in the market. Its difficult ot make a case for the remaining 5 runners. Unleashed was decent on the flat, the best of these at his peak, and is unexposed over hurdles with just the one start. I liked the look of that 4th place where he ran well enough and the run of the race didn't particulary suit finding himself off the pace just at the wrong time. The favourite here has obvious ability having won two bumpers but is untried over hurdles. Minneapolis ran well last time in a handicap hurdle but with only one third place to show from 5 hurdle runs I couldn't back him at 3/1. Tuppenny Piece Improved from 1st to 2nd start over hurldes when 3rd last time out, the distance is a concern but she is improving and her available odds of 14/1 make her a value bet. ResultUnleashed , PU held up mid-division, weakened from 4 out, pulled up before 2 outTuppenny Piece 5th , tracked leader, ridden after 3 out, weakened approaching lastTuesday 6th July
Each Way Value: The form was turned on its head in yesterdays race and its not one to dwell on, although in hindsight perhaps the 33/1 winner and 40/1 third are not that surprising given they are trained by Paul Nicholls and David Pipe. 5.00 Pontefract 7. Charming Man 0.6pt e/w ONLY IF 3/1 or better. (check liveshow) I've had a long think about this one and I just cant recommend 11/4. The race basically looks between the Spencer and Dettori ridden pair, with possible improver Hidden and dark horse Lajidaal looking the only credible threats. Charming Man made up a lot of ground over the last 4f last time out after getting behind early on and you'd expect Dettori to do a better job than the 7lb claimer that was on board that day. Dettori has a 50% strike rate with the new Godolphin stable so far. Fascination is improving too, and finished in front of the selection last time out, but that one wasn't further in front at the finish than he was 4f out so there probably isn't much between them and it might come down to which has improved the most or which is given the best ride today. Result no bet biggest price was 11/4 Wednesday 7th JulyEach Way Value: There are a few "nearly selections today", but I cant recommend anything. The races coming up at the moment aren't throwing up much for us. We haven't had a losing month in a long time and I certainly don't want to "engineer" one by betting for the sake of it, so nothing again today. Thursday 8th JulyEach Way Value: As it turns out we dodged a bullet yesterday by not betting as the possible bet was unplaced. Not betting is sometimes as important as finding the winners. 8.50 Doncaster 1. Bahamian Jazz 0.5pt e/w (5/1 Betinternet*, 9/2 VCBet*/Sportingbet) This one has been a tough decision between Bahamian Jazz and Oh So Spicy. At the prices it too risky to back both so I've down on the side of the bigger priced runner. Bahamian Jazz didn't show a lot on his first two starts but was then gelded and was unlucky not to win last time out. Oh So Spicy showed good form on debut and wasn't knocked about, but there are question marks over that form. There is only a handful of others that can come into calculations but none of which can match the level of form the pick showed last time out, including the favourite. Result, hung left throughout, behind, ridden and headway into mid-division 4f out, kept on same pace final 2f, never on terms Friday 9th JulyGood Afternoon , I'm away this weekend therefore the next update will be Monday 19th. Each Way Value: Today there is again a couple of nearly races but the value just isn't there so I'm not recommending anything. It is a quiet period now which obviously requires patience, and I'm aware that me being away this weekend doesn't help matters but it is a commitment I cant get out of. I prefer quiet periods to losing runs!
