2009 Challenge Fund (£9925 - £320 in play accounted)
This month's stake - £100
Football advices posted yesterday. Thanks to ChrisK for the heads-up on Everton. And Slipperytoad is gallivanting around Brussels so no AW ratings today.
Racing – I'll play the Racing Post Chase but in truth there's nothing properly worth a bet on my tissue. However my three against the field:
Lacdoudal £25 ew at 14/1+ (one of my faves, showed signs of a recovery and well weighted if so)
Naccarat £30 at 10/1 (only distance doubts stop this looking a very big price)
Piraya £20 at 30/1+ (I'm sure Pipe thinks a lot of this one – getting expensive finding out though!)
I'll also play the placepot and my get rich quick ew doubles/treble this week are:
Aimigayle (not rated to win but tough and genuine) 16/1ish
Trenchant (decent effort last time and gets loads of weight in 8 horse race) 20/1ish
Lacdoudal (see above). 14/1ish
Barking Bets (Banked £1375/Current bank £2305 – 1 bet in play unaccounted)
This week's stake - £250.
Quiver Hill blew another hole in the fund yesterday. Struggling.

I see two bookmakers napped Rushden in the Post John, and that they're now Evens! I think I'll let it ride (though these big "gossip" gambles often go awry).
ReplyDeleteThanks for the tip either way!
In retospect(too late for me!) there is no sign of the Cavalry-I mean Youth Team- so the first team could be planning one last hurrah! Better stick to Chester......
ReplyDeleteJohn
I'd best turn it into a free bet then!
ReplyDelete4-0 at half-time!
ReplyDeleteThanks for horses.
ReplyDeleteHad a bit of Nacarat. I translated your words into 'bet of the day'.
Top work John - 9-0 - just hope Stan James pay out now!
ReplyDeleteLeicester/Luton/Nacarat and a small each way on Trenchant plus Middlesborough draw - a pleasing day - and now 4 successive winning Saturdays.
The retro part-time gambler approach seems to be paying dividends. In fact it feels like old times with even Saturday Gambler backing a winner!
Do not worry I am piling the winnings on Jennings to get past 9.5 rounds against Cotto tonight. So wil soon be burned.
ReplyDeleteA romantics bet, but there is something about the way Cotto struggled against Mallinagi and got duffed up by a cheating Margherito, that makes me feel that a man on his bike could keep out of trouble. 11/4
