A Christmas Special. Just for you lucky, lucky people. I’ll be showing you how to make some serious…. shortages. Rodney. I’m hoping to find a bit of time over Christmas to have a few bets. I’ll bang them in here. FOOTBALL Andy Carroll Anytime scorer - £5 @ 11/8 To score 2 or more - £1.20 @ 11/2 Hat-trick - £1 @ 20/1 £7.20 staked Anytime scorers Carroll @ 11/8 Nolito @ 13/8 Rooney @ 17/10 Willian @ 15/8 Barkley @ 14/5 30p Canadian £7.80 staked 4 & 5 folds Sunderland @ 8/5 Middlesbrough @ 21/20 Man City @ 23/20 Leeds @ 5/4 Rochdale @ 9/5 All at 50p £3.00 staked HORSES When I do have a bet of a weekend I tend to look for Kerry Lee and Dan Skelton runners. They both have one in each race.. Haydock 1.30 Gino Trail - £2 @ 6/1 Master Jake - £1 e.w @ 10/1 Haydock 2.40 Corrin Wood - £2 @ 6/1 Russ Blanc - £1 e.w @ 33/1 +4 x 50p e.w doubles Staked £12 Total staked £30.00
I've just cashed out the 5 fold here. I stood to win £36.10 but i've taken the cash out of £14.97. It makes sense in that £36.10 isn't a huge amount anyhow and if City can win i get the full 5 x 4 folds up anyway. The only 4 fold up so far has paid £16.79, so i'm in a small profit anyway. Man City tomorrow, could get me off to a flyer. Gino Trail won @ 13/2 and Corrin Wood placed. £18.28 Returned. Well, if City win tomorrow, you can tell Marlene she owes me. Correct. Uncle Albert.
FOOTBALL Everton to beat Liverpool - £5.47 @ 31/10 Ross Barkley - Anytime Scorer - £2.50 @ 14/5 First Scorer - 50p @ 19/2 Last Scorer - 50p @ 19/2 Two or More - 50p @ 16/1 Score in Each Half - 50p @ 30/1 Hat-Trick - 50p @ 66/1 Staked £10.47 HORSES All at Hereford.. 12.35 Mr Bachster - £2 win @ 15/2 2.05 Uncle Jimmy - £4 @ 9/2 2.40 Matchaway - £2 @ 7/1 3.10 Aces Over Eights - £2 @ 14/1 6 x 40p win doubles 4 x 20p e.w trebles 1 x 50p e.w 4 Fold Staked £15.00 Total Staked £25.47
Starting to look for Boxing day bets now... Watford @ 29/20 Everton @ 2/1 Newcastle/Sheff Wed to draw @ 29/10 £2.50 Trixie £10 Staked.
I always look forward to my boxing day bets, but I’m a bit disappointed with both Football and Horse racing options this year. The King George is disappointing in that there’s only 5 runners, so no each way value. I’ve had a bet just for tradition more than anything, today. I’ve got more interest in the The Welsh Grand National Tuesday. I’ll be backing 3 or 4 here. I’ll be on the favourite Native River, who is already being talked up as another runner for the trainer in the Gold Cup. But it’s Kerry Lee’s mud loving chasers that I want more on. Mountainous is trying to win the race for the third time, I’ve got to cover that @ around 20/1, but I’m more in favour of both her Bishops Rd (16/1) and Russ Blanc (33/1). It’ll be interesting to see who she runs and who she puts her jock’s on. I know I’ve mentioned her being one of my favourite trainers before, but this is one of the races that the Lee’s target every year. They have won the race 3 times in the last 5 years. Boxing Day Horses.. All at Leopardstown 12.45 - Barra @ SP 1.15 - Mega Fortune @ 5/2 1.50 - Dawerann @ SP 2.55 - Ball D'arc @ 7/2 3.30 - Midnight Escape @ SP 10 x 50p doubles 10 x 50p trebles 5 x 20p Four folds 1 x quid accy. £12 Staked KEM 12.55 - Elgin W/O Jenkins @ 13/8 KEM 2.05 – Churchtown Champ @ 18/1 KEM 2.40 – My Tent Or Yours @ 5/1 FON 2.50 – Happy Diva @ SP KEM 3.15 – Cue Card @ 5/4 10 x 50p doubles 10 x 50p trebles 5 x 20p Four folds 1 x quid accy. £12 Staked
Only Elgin and Happy Diva, winners. That leaves me £36.56 left in profit. So.. Welsh National.. Native River £10.56 @ 5/2 Bishops Rd £8 e.w @ 16/1 Mountainous £5 e.w @ 20/1 All prices include faller insurance. £36.56 Staked.
Native River won but no place for Lee's mules. Profit is at £36.96 Doncaster 3.40 - Miss Mash £16.96 @ 11/10
Hot favourite, finished last of 5. Shit ride from the champion jockey. Rotherham to beat Burton Albion £20 @ 15/8 (If i get the opportunity, i may cash out)
Level pegging after yesterdays shit picks. Last bet if no return.. Everton to beat Hull @ 19/20 Sheff Wed to beat Preston @ 31/20 Gateshead to beat Barrow @ 29/20 £7.50 Trixie £30 Staked
Only one winner in my trixie so £30 down. I'm not likely to be punting to much during Jan and Feb so i'll be leaving this thread alone for a while now. I've had one ante post bet tonight though that i'll leave in here... PL Straight Forecast Chelsea/Man Utd £20 @ 14/1 Bet Victor
