July Series Picks

Saturday July 26th Bet 5 of 5

We are placing two sets of combination £1.20 EW Lucky 15s with two selections in the 3.35 at Ascot, but the other four are the same in both batches of bets – each batch costs £180, so overall spend on the day £360. We have returns so far of £1,446.09 in this Series, so would like to add to that ahead of a Must Be Won Lottery bonanza later. We need to shift a few more to get the full main perm on – buy-ins have been slow.

Selections and approximate odds below:

York 2pm: ALEEZDANCER 8-1 drifted to 9-1 and no match for Elmonjed the 9-2 winning favourite finishing right out of the frame.

Ascot 3pm; NORTHERN EXPRESS 8-1 drifted to 9-1 and just missed the frame in 6tn. Two Tribes at 25-1 beat Classic at 10-1 with Sword at 18-1 in third with Golden Mind at 28-1 in 4th and Kodi Lion at 11-1 in 5th ahead of our lad.

York 3.20: SOUL SEEKER 22-1 drifted to 28-1 and finished last. Air Force One at 15-2 won well from Bona Fortuna at 8-1 with Bayraat at 10-1 in third and Copper Knight 5-1fav in 4th and Birkenhead at 14-1 in 5th.

Ascot 3.35: SUPIDO 18-1/COSI BELLO 6-1 the former drifted to 22-1 while Cosi went off 13-2 and managed 4th. Fearnot at 10-1 beat 5-2fav Bullet Point with Hickory at 12-1 in third and we think Supido was just out of the places in 6th.

Chester 3.45: NIGHT ON EARTH 5-1 now a non-runner and bookmaker wouldn’t take our bets with the proviso if non-runner please insert Fancy Dancer Windsor 8.45. This makes returns on the Series £1,484.61 – if we payout we might be able to get some more numbers in tonight’s must be won draw.

Saturday July 19th Bet 4 of 5

We have placed a batch of £2.40 EW combination Lucky 15s, so spend on the day is £360.

Selections and approximate odds below:

Market Rasen 2.40: CAVERN CLUB 13-2 drifted to 8-1 and won on the line from Kihavah at 11-2 with Nibras at 11-1 back in third. A brilliant ride from Gavin Sheehan and a great win for Squirrel’s pal Shiny.

Market Rasen 3.12: COURTLAND 15-2 drifted to 10-1 and was gallant in second, but no match for the handicap snip and gamble of the race Ballysax Hank 9-4 fav with Bhaloo at 17-2 back in third.

Cartmel 3.22: OUR SAM 17-2 was backed in to 13-2 and no prizes for 10th. Imperial Data at 9-1 won by a short head from 11-4fav Go Go Chicago with Al Sayah at 15-2 in third.

Cartmel 4pm: SEAN OG 4-1 backed into 10-3 and looking likely winner, but could only manage third as 3-1fav River Of Joy swooped late to deny our lad and second placed No But I Will at 6-1.

Ripon 5.38: ROUNDHAY PARK 4-1 backed into 3-1jf and won from Gis A Sub at 9-2 and Ideal Guest the other joint favourite. Trainer of the third Harriet might get some consolation with Yannifer in the 8.15 at Doncaster. With two winners, a second and a third on first check returns are £1,082.69.

Saturday July 12th Bet 3 Of 5

We are placing two batches of £1.20 Ew combination Lucky 15s – with two selections in the 4.50 at Ascot – one drawn high and the other low – so each batch £180 and we are also placing 2 x £1 Ew five-timers at £2 each, so overall spend on the day £364.

Selections and approximate odds below:

York 3.10: HAND OF GOD 13-2 drifted to 7-1 and appeared to go wrong in the final furlong. Fox Legacy at 10-1 beat See That Storm at 11-2 with Archivist at 15-8fav in third and Erzindjan at 80-1 in 4th ahead of Austrian Theory at 33-1.

Newmarket 4.35: BELIEVING 17-2 drifted to 9-1, but struggled to get the gaps – finishing a gallant 4th. No Half Measures at 66-1 won with Big Mojo at 12-1 in second and Run To Freedom at 40-1 in third just ahead of our girl.

Ascot 4.50: ROSARIO 22-1/WOODHAY WONDER 13-2 neither got into the race. Alzahir at 20-1 beat Reigning Profit at 50-1 with Mesaafi at 22-1 with Redorange at 5-1 in 4th.

York 5.25: GOOD EARTH 18-1 backed into 16-1 and drawn on the wrong side. As Aberama Gold at 7-2fav won well from Ingleby Archie at 8-1 with Juan Les Pins at 9-2 in third and Fiscal Policy at 7-1 in 4th.

Chest 6.05: QUEUE DOS 5-1 backed into 9-2 and only managed third behind Miraculous at 9-2 and Veyardi at 15-2. On first check returns should be £86.40.

Saturday July 5th Bet 2 Of 5

We have an extra three members in, so 109 presently in this series, which means we have £361, per week, or £360 and a couple of £1 ew accas on two of the remaining four weekends.

We have placed a batch of £2.40 EW combination Lucky 15s, so spend on the day is £360.

Selections and approximate odds below:

Sandown 2.25: CLASSIC ENCOUNTER 5-1 finished 4th so no complaints as Classic at 6-1 won with Arisaig at 18-1 in second and Greek Order 3-1fav in front of our lad in third.

Haydock 3.15: ENEMY 66-1 drifted to 80-1 and broke slowly and ran on late. Meanwhile upfront Plage De Havte at 5-1 beat Paddy The Squire at 9-2 with our lad’s stablemate Night Breeze at 18-1 in third with Sportingsilvermine at 22-1 in 4th.

Sandown 4.12: GILET 10-1 not good enough as Mudbir at 9-2 won from Defence Minister at 6-1 with The Fingal Raven at 33-1 back in third.

Haydock 4.25: GORAK 5-1 faded out of it in the final furlong into 8th. King’s Lynn at 14-1 beat Bobby Bennu at 8-1 with Jumby at 12-1 back in third.

Haydock 4.55: THINK OF A NAME 8-1 drifted to 14-1 and finished 6th. We Dare To Dream at 9-2 beat Santa Savana at 11-2 with Sea Baaeed at 7-2 back in third. With just one placed returns on the day will be a miserable £24 – but were an even poorer £19.20.

Saturday June 28th Bet 1 of 5

We have placed a batch of £2 EW combination Lucky 15s, so overall cost on the day £300. We have 106 memberships in this Series.

Selections and approximate odds below:

Newcastle 2.40: SHERADANN 11-1 drifted to 12-1, but ran on too late into third. Savrola at 10-1 won from Tryfan at 5-1 with Midnight Lion at 40-1 behind our lad and Godsend at 11-2 in 5th with Caprello at 14-1 back in 6th for extra place Simon!

Newcastle 3.15: DUKE OF OXFORD 11-1 not good enough- Spirit Mixer at 25-1 beat Dancing In Paris at 11-1 a neck with Charging Thunder at 22-1 in third with Tribal Star at 11-1 in 4th ahead of Faylaq at 25-1 with East India Dock at 7-2fav in 6th.

Doncaster 6.25: VALLEY OF KINGS 9-1 drifted to 12-1 and sadly 4th, so out of the frame as Wicket Keeper at 6-4 won. Unfortunately, our winner was not best odds, but we have it with two places, so not the end of the world. On first check returns on the day are £258.
