Midweek golf madness:

£5ew double Gregory Havret and Ryan Moore, returns at least £12000


.

Tuesday 29th June

I think I'll repeat a football bet of a few days ago, and hope it's slightly more successful!

Portugal 0-0 and Japan 0-0 (or no goalscorer)
£10 double returns £550.

.

Sunday 27th June

Obviously, you have to keep Germany winning on penalties on-side at times like this.

In the Irish Derby none of the main protagonists appeal. Puncher Clynch has as good form as most of them, so 20/1 is a no-brainer.

And Mexico could give Argentina a, probably fruitless, run for their money.

£10 double Puncher Clynch/Germany win on penalties returns £2000
£10 treble German draw/Mexico draw.Puncher Clynch returns £2350
£10 treble Puncher Clynch/Germany penalties/Mexico returns £14000

Saturday 26th June

These knock-out games should see the world cup get even cagier.

£10 double both games today 0-0 (or no goalscorer) returns £450
£10 treble the above plus Rajik wins Northumberland Plate (for fun!) returns c£7500

.

Saturday 19th June

Mix the football and racing up for today's silly strikes.

Medicean Man
Munsef
Ghana
Holland
Denmark
£15 acca returns £16000

The same but Denmark draw
£10 acca returns £14000

Friday 18th June

Golfers doing Ok - early days...

Horses - hopeless. I've shut up shop at Ascot for the week, and will just do these "get rich quick" bets in case my notebook horses all win without me!

Bullet Train
Music Show
Mikhail Glinka
£25 win treble returns £3800

£5 five fold the above three and
Slovenia/USA
Serbia/Germany
to be draws returns £9000

.

Thursday 17th June

Two nice priced second places yesterday - not that I was each way !

The Gold Cup has me looking at outsiders.
Bannaby, Purple Moon and Darley Sun would all have chances better than their odds suggest to my eyes. Forecasts maybe.

Prior to that let's do three £10 trebles hoping to put us in position A
Dinkum Diamond/Principal Role and the above three.


And I'm sure you're desperate to know which golfers to avoid this week.
I simply can't let Woods go unbacked at 10/1 and have added Dustin Johnston and KJ Choi to the mix.

Wednesday 16th June

I've hardly watched flat racing this year - only the top races. This disengagement showed yesterday when I failed to get to grips with Ascot at all.

You've been warned. AT least Pricewise is keen on a couple of my notebook horses today.

Meezan
Glass Harmonium
Riggins
Blue Maiden (one last chance with Fallon back on)
4 x £8 trebles
1 x £3 acc

Tuesday 15th June

Have to aim a few guns at Ascot...


Dalghar and Gold Trail both look nicely priced.
£20 double returns £3000
£5 treble Makfi returns £2750
£5 treble Siyouni returns £5250


.

Monday 14th June

How about a lack of goals today.

Japan/Cameroon and Italy/Paraguay £10 no goal scorer double - returns say £500

And a Gold Cup ante post tickle £15 Bannaby 33/1

And the treble £5 returning £8800 (say).

Saturday 12th June

I suppose I'd best throw a couple of long-shot darts at the football, in between trading, which I hope I do better than I did on France game last night!

Altidore top goalscorer £5 500/1
There's a chance USA could travel a fair way into the tournament.

Di Natale/Italy £5 300/1
Much nicer price than the sexy selections...

Wednesday 9th June

Mid-week golf madness.

I'm following Steve Palmer's headline choices this week, so hardly original!

Brian Gay 28/1
Ignacio Garrido 25/1
£15 each way double.

Friday 4th June

Or my 22nd wedding anniversary!

The derby/oaks trials all looked pretty miserable. Just afterwards a couple of listed races at Goodwood caught the eye, so how about a sneaky double on those two, and then mix things up a bit.

£10 Snow Fairy/Rewilding
£10 treble Snow Fairy/Sariska/Rewilding
£5ew double Meeznah/Ted Spread
