It was a profitable day on Friday with the George Boughey stable debutante winning nicely under Billy Loughnane. As expected, the horse was ahead of the handicapper and won with plenty left, and the horse did very little when hitting the front. Fakhama also ran a belter and landed us some place money at 16/1 at York in the Listed […]
A few things have come up and I’ve had no time to cover selections on the main thread. Rizzel has kindly covered four selections for Friday in my absence, but to help him out I’ve covered the Lucky 15 thread. As usual, let us know who you fancy for Friday’s racing in the comment section. Cairnzy’s tips Tactician 5/4 – […]
Cairnzy had a few things come up today and as a result, had no time to cover his two selections for the main thread. He did have a little time to cover the Lucky 15 thread, you can find the Lucky 15 thread via the home screen if that’s something you’re interested in. Connie’s Rose was weak in the market […]
There is some good racing on offer for punters on Thursday, and Cairnzy and Rizzel have selected 2 horses each for Thursday’s lucky 15 bet. As usual, let us know who you fancy for Thursday’s racing in the comment section! Cairnzy’s Tips My Dream World 6/1 – Sandown 3.50 This is a cracking little class 3 contest and you can […]
Wednesday was a bit more like it for the both of us as Easy Peeler did what was expected as an EVS favourite, doing it fairly comfortably. Maritime Lady was given a peach of a front running ride by Sylvestre De Sousa, he got the fractions spot on and the filly kept on rolling out in front. Tierney also ran […]
Cairnzy and Rizzel have selected two horses each for Wednesday’s Lucky 15 bet. As usual, let us know in the comment section who you fancy for Wednesday’s racing! Cairnzy’s tips Maritime Lady 4/1 – Leicester 6.45 I think the current favourite and last time out winner Chicago Gal can be taken on in this contest. She takes a step up […]
Trojan Sun was horrendous up at Musselburgh and showed nothing like he did on his previous start over the same C&D. Cash The Cheque didn’t get the clearest of runs when trying to make her challenge around the final bend, being blocked off by the same horse at least two times. Pfingstberg was under the cosh a fair way from […]
Cairnzy and Rizzel concentrate on the meetings at Lingfield and Wolverhampton for Tuesday’s Lucky 15 bet. Cairnzy’s Tips Golden Gal 5/1 – Wolverhampton 5.40 Golden Gal’s opening price of 7/1 is gone but she’s still a fair price at 5/1 in what looks a pretty poor affair. My selection was out of sorts towards the end of last season and […]
We managed to land one winner yesterday, but it was a short-priced favourite and overall it was a below-par day. The unraced Richard Fahey runner was well backed into favourite from 9/2 and won quite easily despite running green. My other selection Braes Of Doune was backed into favourite but could only manage second place. It was a honking ride […]
Cairnzy and Rizzel have picked out 4 horses from the meetings at Ayr, Beverley, Cartmel and Windsor for Monday’s lucky 15 bet. As usual, let us know in the comments who your fancies are for Monday’s racing. Cairnzy’s tips – Mrs Trump 6/1 – Beverley 6.30 There looks plenty of pace on offer in this contest, which could set up […]
We were left with three selections on Sunday as Gregorianna was a non-runner. I managed to land a winner in Matterhorn who still looks ahead of his current mark on the back of that victory yesterday. Rizzel’s two selections ran considerably below par, particularly the Aiden O’Brien runner, who never got involved. Classy Boy was off the bridle quite early […]
Cairnzy was absent yesterday and as a result, we couldn’t post a lucky 15 bet for Saturday’s racing. Both tipsters are back in action now and have selected 4 horses for Sunday’s Lucky 15 bet. Cairnzy’s Tips – Melton Mossey 9/4 – Newtown Abbot 4.10 Melton Mossey disappointed when failing to land the hat trick here a couple of weeks […]
It’s been a tough week with a lot of selections running below par, and a fair few hitting the crossbar, but that’s how racing goes sometimes. No excuses on our part, the figures will be on tomorrow’s thread. Cairnzy’s Tips – Gregorianna 14/1 EW – Redcar 5.02 This race looks weak on paper which is to be expected given it’s […]
Cairnzy is busy so he hasn’t had the time to put up horses, so for Saturday Rizzel has two selections for a good day of racing on the flat and over the jumps. Rizzel’s Tips Regional 5/2 – Newbury 3.00 The sprint division at the top level is very hard to call as since Blue Point and Bataash have retired […]
A busy day of racing awaits punters on Friday and our resident horse racing tipsters have four selections for Friday’s Lucky 15 bet. Cairnzy’s Tips Dakota Gold 13/2 – Pontefract 7.55 Dakota Gold is one of my favorite sprinters, he was a recent winning tip for me on the thread, and although he is not the force he once was, […]
Salamanca City was a winning tip for Cairnzy on Thursday after letting him down previously on her previous outing. She travelled well throughout the race and picked up well when asked to go and win. Rizzel’s pair of runners didn’t manage to get a win. Lermoos Legend was well-supported at Worcester but was beaten into second place by the rank […]
For Thursday’s Lucky 15 tips, Cairnzy and Rizzel have selected two horses each between the meetings at Hamilton and Epsom. Let us know in the comments what your fancies are for Thursday’s racing! Cairnzy’s Tips – Bright Spark 15/8 – Hamilton 4.55 Jim Goldie has his string in good shape at present and it may be worth sticking with his […]
It was a tough day yesterday for myself and Rizz with neither of our selections running as expected. Thursday is a new day and hopefully, we can find a winner from somewhere in what looks like another poor day of racing. Cairnzy’s Tips Kiss Me My Love 9/2 – Hamilton 2.20 My first selection for Thursday’s racing is the Charlie […]
Cairnzy and Rizzel have selected two horses each between the meetings at Yarmouth, Uttoxeter, and Ffos Las for Wednesday’s Lucky 15 tips. Cairnzy’s Tips Fine Interview 13/8 – Yarmouth 6.40 Fine Interview hasn’t been seen since filling the runner up spot on debut last year at this very same track. The form of that second now reads well with the […]
Rizzel had to watch from the sidelines on Tuesday as both of his fancies were non-runners. Nottingham was abandoned because of a waterlogged track which wiped out three of the picks on Tuesday as I also had one at that track. Drama was my only selection of the day due to the abandoned meeting at Nottingham, but he could not […]
Cairnzy’s managed to fire in two winners on the Lucky 15 thread on Monday with 11/2 and 7/2 winners. For Tuesday’s Lucky 15 tips, Cairnzy and Rizzel have picked out horses from Killarney, Kempton, Beverley, and Nottingham. Cairnzy’s Tips Coto De Caza 5/4 – Beverley 2.30 There is a chance that the meeting at Beverley will be abandonded due to […]
Tomorrow’s thread is going live a bit earlier than usual, so I can’t comment right now on my last selection which is due to run at 7.20. I’ll pop a comment in the comments section after the race is finished for those who like to read a brief analysis of our selections. Up to now, we managed to land one […]
For Monday’s Lucky 15 tips Cairnzy and Rizzel have picked out two horses on the flat from Windsor and Ayr as well as two from Downpatrick’s jumps meeting. Cairnzy’s Tips The Dragon King 7/2 – Windsor 5.15 Only six go to post for this race but it looks a wide-open affair on paper as you can make cases for nearly […]
We were left with three selections on Sunday as one of Rizzel’s tips was announced as a non-runner. Ultimately it was a losing day as neither of the remaining selections were able to get the job done. Songo was ridden prominently by Harry Cobden throughout the race but found very little when push came to shove and he plugged on […]
There are only two meetings on in the UK on Sunday, both of which are jump meetings. Rizz and I have selected two horses each for Sunday’s Lucky 15 tips. Cairnzy’s Tips R S Ambush 13/8 – Stratford 3.30 If R S Ambush can build on last months half-length defeat at Hexham, then he is surely the one to beat […]
Quddwah was a winning selection for us on Saturday, but ultimately it was a below-par day with the remaining three selections losing. Lou Lou’s Gift was a tad keen in the opening two furlongs which probably cost her in the end. Carrytheone again had zero luck in running, he stayed on to finish fourth, but I believe with a clear […]
Saturday’s racing isn’t short of quality with countless meetings happening throughout the UK and Ireland. Rizzel has decided to concentrate on the meeting at Longchamp in France while I’ve stuck to the UK meeting. Cairnzy’s Tip Rogue Lightning 5/1 – York 2.35 Rogue Lightning was a horse who although I didn’t tip up on Royal Ascot, I did fancy his […]
It was another profitable day on Friday as Rizz managed to land two winners with Fairbanks and No Half Measures. My sole selection Heavens Gate looked awkward when asked to go and win the race while Rizzel’s other selection Mousey Brown didn’t stay the trip. Saturday’s racing is filled with quality but from a punting angle looks as tough as […]
A busy day of racing awaits punters on Friday with 7 meetings on offer throughout the UK and Ireland. Rizzel and I have selected 4 horses for Friday’s Lucky 15 tips which you can find below. Cairnzy’s Tips Great Generation 5/1 – York 2.40 I’ve decided to take on Unequal Love in this contest with Great Generation, who at 5/1 […]
Cairnzy ensured it was a profitable day for the thread by landing a lovely 10/1 winner on the Oisin Murphy ridden Sergeant Wilko. Oisin didn’t mess around, he took the bull by the horns and went from the front and kept it simple and the horse just kept rolling. Both of Rizzel’s horses weren’t great, with Ain’t Nobody running a […]
There is some great racing on Thursday, in particular, the meeting at Newmarket which catches the eye with some bigger names coming out to play. Myself and Rizzel have selected four horses for Thursday’s lucky 15 which you can find below. Cairnzy’s Tips Hamish 10/11 – Newmarket 3.35 Hamish is short enough in the market but it’s hard to look […]
Kinako Mochi ran out a ready winner for the Roger Varian stable with Jack Mitchell doing the steering. He looks like a nice novice going places and one to keep an eye on for the future. Banderas was given far too much to do at Kempton, he came with a strong finishing effort under William Buick but was positioned in […]
For Wednesday’s Lucky 15 tips Cairnzy and Rizzel have opted for horses from Kempton and Ffos Las. Cairnzy’s Tips City Escape 9/2 – Ffos Las 18:50 City Escape is a proven and consistent C&D performer and he comes here with a solid chance under jockey Oisin Murphy. He is on a mark of 54 which should make him highly competitive […]
Tramore was called off yesterday due to the weather and as a result, we were left with 3 selections. All three ran considerably under par with the slight exception of Doha, who was given a shocking ride by Hector Crouch. Wednesday’s racing looks tricky and the quality of the meetings is pretty poor but we’ve selected four horses from four […]
Tuesday’s Lucky 15 tips come from the meetings at Pontefract, Lingfield, and Uttoxeter. Rizzel fancies an old winning selection of his to outrun his price of 16/1. Cairnzy’s Tips James Webb 6/4 – Pontefract 2.40 James Webb has been a tad frustrating to follow, however, he looks like the horse to beat in what seems an ideal opportunity to get […]
It was a great start to the week with 3 selections winning on the day. As expected, Garden Oasis won from the front, while Sea King did enough to win under a strange ride from Paul Mulrennan. Rizzel managed to land a lovely 8/1 winner, a cracking call in a race that I wouldn’t have called had you given me […]
Monday’s Lucky 15 tips come from a variety of meetings throughout the UK and Ireland, with Rizzel and I selecting two horses each. Cairnzy’s Tips Victors Dream 9/4 – Wolverhampton 8.40 The Botti yard arn’t in that great of form of late, with only 2 winners from 22 runs, however, his runner Victors Dream looks to have found a good […]
Bullion Boss was a winner for Rizzel with his sole selection of the day after Elim was unfortunately a non-runner at Ayr. The winning margin wasn’t as big as Rizzel expected, but Conor Rabbit kept calm and delivered his mount with a winning run at the right time. I went against the odds on favourite Stratusnine and it didn’t pay […]
The Saturday Lucky 15 went down to a Patent as Boardman was a NR due to Haydock being abandoned halfway through their card. There was a winner from the three which did run when 6/1 Cicero’s Gift made a winning return from over a year off the track. For Sunday’s Lucky 15 we have horses running at Chelmsford on the […]
It was a typical difficult day of racing on Saturday with some very underwhelming runs from the selections and a couple of bad rides in there as well, most noticeably on Rizzel’s tip Desperate Hero who definitely committed for home far too early on testing ground. If he held onto his mount for a bit longer he would’ve given the […]
Myself and Rizzel have previewed two races each from the meetings at Sandown and Haydock for Saturday’s Lucky 15 tips. Cairnzy’s Tips Wild Waves 5/1 – Haydock 2.05 Wild Waves showed promise in his recent victory at Doncaster. Despite moving up to a mark of 92 for this race, there is optimism for further improvement for trainer Andrew Balding. Soprano […]
Friday was a dud day with all four selections running considerably below par. There is some nice racing on Saturday, in particular at Haydock and Sandown. Cairnzy’s Tips Classic 11/2 – Sandown 2.25 My first selection on Saturday is Classic for trainer Richard Hannon and jockey Pat Dobbs. Some of you may remember me tipping Classic up recently on the […]
It was another close but no cigar type of day with Thursday’s Lucky 15, with 2/4 winners and the other two running to an okay level without really threatening the win. Cairnzy’s Tips Looking for Lynda 9/2 – Doncaster 3.40 Looking For Lynda has been a consistent performer this season, consistently putting in strong performances despite narrowly missing out on […]
Mary’s Pride was the standout runner on Thursday as he managed to land Rizzel a nice 10/1 winner (1op rule 4). It was a confident ride and it was nice to see the jockey take a positive position as in those big-field events, it can be very difficult to come from off the pace. The horse travelled beautifully throughout and […]
Rizzel and I have previewed four selections that come from the meetings at Haydock, Perth, and Yarmouth for Thursday’s Lucky 15 tips. Cairnzy’s Tips Albert Cee 3/1 – Haydock 3.40 An open-looking race with several coming into this with solid claims. I’ve spoken before about how a change of stable can spark horses back into life and that was the […]
It was a below-par day yesterday with only one selection winning from four. Thunder Run ran out an impressive winner on the day and handled the ground much better than The Reverend, who should come on for the run next time out. Marley Park was denied a clear run in the straight after getting stuck behind a few horses. I […]
Rizzel and I have previewed four selections from the meetings at Thirsk and Epsom for Wednesday’s Lucky 15 tips. Cairnzy’s Tips: Jehangeer 7/2 – Thirsk 4.55 Jehangeer was busy enough as a two-year-old, winning once and placing once in four outings. His return to action at Newmarket was encouraging, finishing third in a decent looking handicap. That race looked more […]
Tuesday was a much more solid day with two of the four selections winning, one from each tipster. It was a great front-running ride by William Buick on Aragon Castle. Keeping it simple is always the best way to win races, especially on the flat as you often find plenty of trouble in running when being held up, so seeing Buick […]
We managed to land 2 winning selections from four on yesterday’s Lucky 15 tips. Rizzel’s long shot finished second which was unfortunate as it would have returned a nice profit had he won. We’ve selected another 2 horses each that you can find below. Cairnzy’s tips Ellerton 9/4 – Stratford 6.10 Ellerton looks the solid play in this contest under […]
It wasn’t an ideal start to the month with three of the selections underperforming massively. A couple of the selections on Monday were far too keen on the front end, mainly Old Cock, who gave his jockey no chance when falling through the field with a few furlongs to go. Composite wasn’t as keen as Old Cock in his race […]
As of today, our resident horse racing tipsters Cairnzy and Rizzel will be putting up a daily Lucky 15 bet. These types of bets aren’t for everyone, but everyone has a different way of betting and the Lucky 15 is one of the more popular bets for horse racing fans as you can effectively stake a low amount on the […]
Los Angeles reversed the placings with Ambiente Friendly, who to the eye, didn’t stay the trip as well as the winner. I’d be surprised if connections keep him over 1m4 and I fully expected him to be dropped back a furlong or so. July is a new month and I’m delighted to welcome back my good friend Rizzel to the […]
Saturday was a great day on the thread with both selections winning nicely. Today’s thread will be the last that I will be working as a lone wolf, as we welcome back Rizzel tomorrow, who will combine with me in July. I’ve only a sole selection for Sunday’s racing which comes in the big race at the Curragh. Ambiente Friendly […]
Berkshire Nugget was disappointing on Friday and given he’s due to be raised further after today, I wouldn’t be going anywhere near him anytime soon. I’ve two selections for Saturday’s racing that come from the meetings at Newcastle and Newmarket. Alphonse Le Garde 10/3 – Newcastle 2.35 My first selection of the day is Alphonse Le Garde. Although heading the […]
Before we talk racing, I’d like to announce some upcoming changes to the racing thread here at MFT that will be starting from July 1st. I’m delighted to welcome back my good friend Rizzel, who will combine with me going forward from the start of the next month. I don’t need to introduce Rizz to those who are regular followers […]
Yesterday was a great result, with all three selections winning. If you took the treble at the advised odds, it paid just over 12/1. I’ve two selections for tomorrow with my main play coming at the meeting at Newcastle. Brunch 6/1 – Newcastle 4.10 I tipped up Brunch on his reappearance at Nottingham at the start of the month and […]
When asked to go and win the race, Warrendale Wagyu ran very green under pressure, he received a bump or two in running which appeared to light him up a bit and his chances of winning were gone in a flash. My second selection Where’s Jeff ran with credit to finish fourth but missed out on the placings by one, […]
I’m not quite sure what went wrong with Equity Law, he broke well but came under pressure very quickly and ended up finishing towards the rear. I’ve two selections for Tuesday, and both come from the meeting at Beverley. Warrendale Wagyu 2/1 – Beverley 1.47 The one I like in this race is the J&S Quinn-trained Warrendale Wagyu, who looks […]
Hectic was woeful on Sunday, a performance that pretty much summed up the last few days. Monday’s racing isn’t much better and if given the option, I wouldn’t be posting a thing. Unfortunately, that option is not up for discussion and I do have to put something up. It’s a tad on the short side, but it’s the only horse […]
Kikkuli managed to place at advised odds of 20/1 to pull some money back, but I was devasted that he could not get up on the line. Overall, I’m glad to see the back of Royal Ascot. We had an okay start to the festival, but it was pretty much downhill after day two. It’s a tough festival for punters […]
We started off the Royal Ascot festival not too badly, but the previous two days have been tough. The final day of the Royal Ascot festival has arrived, it’s scary how quickly it comes and goes. Hopefully, we can find a winner and land some profit to finish off a hard week of racing. Ascot 2.30 – Chesham Stakes – […]
Thursday was a disaster from start to finish with all three selections running considerably below par. I couldn’t find excuses for any of them, in the end, it was just one of those days. Day four of Ascot has arrived and I’ve previewed four races below, which include my four selections for day four. Ascot 2.30 – Albany Stakes ( […]
We came away with two winning selections on day two of Royal Ascot, with Illinois and Auguste Rodin winning in style under jockey Ryan Moore. Ryan Moore’s ride on Auguste Rodin was top drawer. He sat off the pace, picked up the pieces into the straight, and was strong in the finish to see off the eventual second Zarakem. I’ve […]
I’m happy enough to come away with one winning selection yesterday. Charyn was a runaway winner and it was nice to be repaid after he let me down on his previous outing. He was tipped up at 7/2 and returned at 10/3 after remaining solid in the market. We were left with three selections as Andesite was announced as a […]
A week of quality flat racing commences at Royal Ascot on Tuesday. I’ll be previewing the main races of each day from Tuesday through to Saturday, along with my main bets for each race. Ascot 2.30 – Queen Anne Stakes – Charyn 7/2 I feel like Royal Ascot has come around quicker than normal and we’re already two months into […]
Mezzo Soprano ran very green on reappearance and was ultimately her own worst enemy throughout. She moved into contention quite well into the straight despite running green and if not for an awkward head carriage, she may have got the job done. She still looks like a nice horse and will come on bundles for that reappearance, so is maybe […]
Classic ran a cracking race to place second and gain us some each-way profit. A small profit is better than no profit and every little helps. My other selection Night Eyes ran a good race to finish third, I advised each way on that one as well, however, due to a non-runner, only two places were on offer and therefore, […]
My selection yesterday Rajeteriat could only manage second place after being outstayed within the final furlong by the eventual winner. I couldn’t find any excuses and the better horse beat him on the day. A busy and competitive Saturday of racing awaits us and I’ve two each-way selections for tomorrow that I hope go well. Night Eyes 10/1 EW – […]
Clove Hitch returned an impressive winner on Thursday after being backed from the advised odds of 11/8 into odds on. I expected Clove Hitch to be priced up at even money and fully expected him to shorten overnight and during the day. The 11/8 was a steal in the end as he won like a 1/5 shot on the day. […]
Both of Wednesday’s selections ran with credit but unfortunately, neither of them managed to win. Both races were won by outsiders, with prices of 28/1 and 18/1. If you had given me a week to study the two races, I still would not have called those results. Thursday’s racing isn’t the worst and I’ve gone ahead and selected two horses […]
Chatty managed to place at advised odds of 10/1 which gained us some each-way profit, which is better than nothing at all. Chatty ran another encouraging race, he was ridden aggressively from the front and was one of the last horses of the bridle when entering the final couple of furlongs. He was no match for the eventual winner but […]
The guys at MFT have kindly asked me to put together a free Euro 2024 sweepstake PDF kit. The sweepstake kit will be available for you all to download for free via the PDF link at the bottom of the page. The European Championship only happens once every four years, and it is one of the biggest international football tournaments […]
It was a good start to the week with both selections winning comfortably on Monday. If you took the double at the advised odds, it paid roughly 5.5/1, not the greatest of prices for a double but it at least recoups some of the losses from the start of the month. Not much jumped out to me as a bet […]
Yesterday’s selection Racingbreaks Ryder has fallen into the ‘avoid going forward’ catergory, as he continues to fail in taking advantage of an attractive mark. I’m confident that the horse will win a race soon enough, but chasing that win is something that is not on my agenda. He will probably be dropped further after that run and you could see […]
Saturday was tough and to be honest, most of this month has been tough. Both selections were underwhelming yesterday and I don’t have any excuses to highlight in regards to their performances on the day. Connections will be disappointed with Live In The Dream, I was confident on that one getting the job done yesterday without any real fuss. My […]
On Friday, we were left with just one selection as Oriental Art was announced as a non-runner. Royal Velvet was a tad disappointing, she was lit up mid-race after receiving a bump by a fellow runner, she was made to run wide and could not land a blow in the straight. There is a lot of racing on today, but […]
The long trip to Hamilton was disappointing for Trainer Kevin Philippart De Foy as Bur Dubai could only manage third place. The eventual winner took the step up in grade with ease and my selection had no real excuse on the day. I’ve concentrated on the Goodwood and Brighton meetings on Friday and selected two horses that I fancy will […]
My main pick Golden Strike won at recommended odds of 9/2. He was heavily backed into 13/8 favorite throughout the day. Hopefully, some of you managed to snatch up the 9/2 that was available with most firms last night. Unfortunately, my other two selections did not fare as well. Mother Nature was narrowly beaten at the finish line, while Baynoona […]
Both selections were utterly abysmal on Tuesday, and probably the worst two runs I’ve seen from any horse I’ve put up on the thread for a long time. Magic Rascal went backwards very quickly when they quickened for home. I was surprised, he settled a lot better than usual and his tendency to run keen I thought was the main […]
It wasn’t a great start to the week with both selections losing. I was more disappointed with Blue Day than the other selection. He was a shadow of the horse we saw when I tipped him up last month. I have two selections for tomorrow which come from the meeting at Leicester. Magic Rascal 5/2 – Leicester 3:03 This is […]
It was one winner from three on Sunday, which is better than drawing a complete blank I suppose. My main selection Kassaya was able to take a step forward from debut and get off the mark. She looks like a nice horse going forward and I’m looking forward to seeing her over further once connections decide to up her in […]
Deira Mile placed at 25/1 in The Derby, returning some decent each-way money. City Of Troy bounced back to form and was a worthy winner in the end for trainer Aiden O’Brien, who of course has a smashing record in The Derby. My other selection Astral Beau was unable to land a blow after being ridden prominently from the start. […]
It was a disappointing start to Epsom with both selections losing on the day. Hamish ran well to finish second and looking back now, I probably should have advised a top-two finish as I fancied the horse to run a big race. Zoum Zoum let me down yet again and it appears I got on the bandwagon a tad late […]
I’m delighted to announce we are now covering UFC previews and betting tips on MFT! Most of you will probably know me from the racing section as I’m the headline tipster on that side of things. I’ve had a passion for UFC for years and it’s great to finally offer previews and betting tips for it as well, as the […]
Wannabe Brave landed us another winning selection on Thursday at advised odds of 3/1. He traveled like the winner the entire race, he sat just off the pace setters and when they went around the bend, it was pretty much game over as Oisin pushed him out to win nicely by a length and a half in the end. Unfortunately, […]
My sole selection on Wednesday was very disappointing and never looked like landing a blow. Jimih was ridden out the back and didn’t seem to be traveling throughout. I was disappointed with the run but when you tip up a horse in a race of that quality then I can’t say I’m surprised either. I’ve concentrated on the meetings at […]
Ashariba rewarded us with another winner on Tuesday and maintained the good form of the David Menuisier yard. It wasn’t all clear sailing for Ashariba as Tipsy Tiger pulled up alongside her in the final couple of furlongs. At one point I thought Hollie Doyle was going to go on past but Ashariba responded well under the Oisin Murphy drive […]
I was delighted to land another winner yesterday with Dakota Gold, who rolled back the years and looked somewhat like his old self. He was given a great ride by jockey Connor Beasley, which is to be expected as he knows the horse like the back of his hand. Dakota Gold jumped well, was ridden positively from the front, and […]
White Birch rewarded us with another winner on Sunday as Auguste Rodin failed to fire once again. Orchard Bloom could only manage fourth while Rogue Millennium was turned over at even money. I never caught the race live, so I’m unable to comment on how Orchard Bloom ran on the day. I’ve been busy all day and haven’t had much […]
It was one win from three selections yesterday which is better than nothing. Francophone showed a great attitude to win on Saturday and it’ll be interesting to see where connections send him next. Flora Of Bermuda completely fluffed the start and the race was over for that one before it even began. She did make up a bit of ground […]
Yesterday was a great result, I needed that badly after six days of complete dross. Fair Wind won at drifted odds of 13/2 while Electric Storm was tipped up last night at 15/2 and was backed into 9/4 throughout the day. If you took the double and got the best odds it paid roughly 67/1 as a double. My other […]
I can’t seem to do much right this past while, with the last winning selection coming from last Friday. I’m not one to shy away when bad form strikes, and if it takes another seven days to land a winner, then so be it. Form comes in patches and sticking to what I’ve been doing previously is what I’ll continue […]
Typical isn’t it? I slandered the Charlie Johnson yard last night as his horses have been running shockingly and he goes ahead and wins the feature race at Ayr. I’m hoping a recently tipped-up horse can get me back on the straight and narrow. Kikkuli 3/1 – Sandown 8:12 I tipped up this horse quite recently on the thread and […]
The next Chelsea manager odds have been updated after it was announced tonight that Mauricio Pochettino has left Chelsea by mutual consent It’s been reported that Pochettino agreed to depart Chelsea on Tuesday morning, following an end-of-season review by Chelsea hierarchy. The departure of Pochettino makes him the third permanent manager to lose his job under the Todd Boehly ownership after Thomas […]
I was left with two selections on Tuesday as Street Parade refused to enter the stalls. The remaining two selections ran below par. The Charlie Johnson yard continues to fire blanks and I’ll be avoiding their horses until I see a change in form. I’ve one selection from Ayr tomorrow that I hope runs well. Heartache Tonight 11/4 – Ayr […]
Arctic Mountain looked like he was going to land the spoils but was unfortunately swallowed up towards the line by Ron O who was backed quite heavily before the off. I’ve three selections from the flat tomorrow from Nottingham and Brighton. Reyaadah Star 3/1 – Nottingham 4:40 Reyaadah Star was the only horse running on the flat tomorrow that stood […]
Mahboob was very poor yesterday and I’ve no idea what went wrong. I thought the horse was going okay but he quickly went backwards and in the blink of an eye, he wasn’t even in the camera shot. Not much jumped out to me as a bet on Monday, which tends to be the case most Mondays as the racing […]
It was a tough Saturday with all three selections losing on the day. Charyn was the only selection who ran with any credit. It was a strange race, both Inspiral and Big Rock who headed the market, ran well below expectations. The race was eventually won by Audience, who was sent off at 22/1. I head to Newmarket for my […]
It may have taken a while with extended negotiations and a postponement, but the big one is finally here! Boxing will crown an undisputed champion for the first time in 25 years as Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk face off in Saudi Arabia for a winner-takes-all-all contest. How the bookies view it: Titanic Fury vs Usyk battle tough to call […]
It was nice to land a winner yesterday with Botanical who looked ever so impressive on the day. He tracked the leaders from off the pace and moved up along stylishly before skipping clear to win by a few lengths. Botanical looks like a useful horse and I’m looking forward to seeing how he gets on throughout the rest of […]
It has been a rough few days on the thread, with my selections either running below par or hitting the crossbar. Today was a case of hitting the crossbar, with Kassaya and Pawapuri both finishing second. Kassaya has gone straight into the tracker after that run as there was a lot to like about that debut performance. She travelled beautifully […]
Chillingham placed at 9/1 yesterday to gain some minor place money, but besides that, I was hit for six on Wednesday as my other two selections failed to land a blow. I mentioned last night that backing odds on shots can come back and bite you and that was the case on Wednesday with Friendly Soul. If I’m honest, I […]
Yesterday’s selection Sound Reason was soundly beaten on the day. He encountered some traffic problems during the race and had to be switched for a run which cost him some momentum. Even with a clear run, I don’t think he would have troubled the winner but the horse is still handicapped to win races of that nature so it’s worth […]
Monday was unfortunately a losing day with both selections running below par. Something must have gone wrong with Lightfoot Lady, she was traveling beautifully throughout the race and once she jumped the third last, she came off the bridle and was pulled up. I haven’t read or heard anything from connections but something didn’t look right with the horse. The […]
King’s Lynn let me down again as he finished third at Newcastle as my only selection on Sunday. Oisin Murphy had a five-timer on the card at Newcastle on Sunday, and to pick one of the horses he didn’t win on made it even more frustrating. King’s Lynn travelled well during the race but lacked that turn of foot he […]
Saturday saw us land a 21/1 double with both selections winning nicely. Saturdays tend to be the hardest day of the week for punting and it was nice not to be on the receiving end of the bookie’s battering stick for a change. Congratulations to those in the comments who also called some nice winners. I’ve only one selection for […]
It was nice to bounce back to winning ways yesterday, with Passenger winning at advised odds of 9/4. Botanical was announced as a non-runner which left us with only the sole selection. I was impressed with Passenger’s performance, he tracked the leaders from off the pace and pounced within the final couple of furlongs to win with something in hand. […]
Thursday was a complete disaster, with all three selections running well below par. Far Above Mary finished last of 9, Jayarbe went out like a light when Ryan Moore upped the tempo on the eventual winner, and Arch Legend was given a horrific ride by Franny Norton. I was more disappointed with Arch Legend than anything else. I understand he […]
An endless spiral of footballing drama, the EFL Championship play-offs await four teams as they dash for the finishing line with a place in the Premier League up for grabs. 2024 EFL Championship play-off facts The playoffs are not normal games of football. Rather, they are treated like cup finals where the stakes are nothing less than a place among […]
It was nice to land a winner yesterday with Hidden Law who returned at the advised price of 9/4. The win however was dampened as Hidden Law suffered a fatal injury after crossing the finishing line. Thoughts go out to connections and all those involved with Hidden Law. It’s never a nice thing to see In racing and these fatal […]
Both of yesterday’s selections finished second which was disappointing as I felt we should have come away with at least one winning selection. Planned Paradise looked like he was caught off guard as the eventual winner upped the pace and went for home. He stayed on towards the line but was given too much to do In the end. It […]
Charlie Mason was my sole selection yesterday and he won at advised odds of 10/3. There’s nothing sweeter than when a race plans out exactly how you imagined It would. My selection fluffed the start and Rossa Ryan had to push him forward to settle him in mid-pack. The extra half a furlong worked as I expected, as he stayed […]
I was delighted to land a winner yesterday with My Little Queens who was advised at 4/1 last night. The money poured In for my selection overnight and she went off a 6/4 favourite on the day. I was disappointed with Kalpana who travelled well until the two pole. Oisin asked her to close the gap with the eventual winner […]
It has been a tough four or five days but we had a turn for the better on Saturday with Kargese winning at Punchestown at a drifted price of 9/4. I also tipped up Haatem at 28/1 EW in the 2000 Guineas and he ran a blinder to finish third so there was some nice each-way money made on that […]
Castle Way was my only selection for Friday as Lark In The Mornin was announced as a non-runner. Castle Way ran a stinker, however he wasn’t the only horse in the race to run below par. Hollie Doyle dictated the race from start to finish on Outbox who returned at a price of 50/1! It says a lot about the […]
We have some nice racing to look forward to on Friday, with a mixture of both flat and jumps on offer. I’ve two selections for tomorrow and they come from the meetings at Newmarket and Punchestown. Lark In The Mornin 11/4 – Punchestown 19:05 Lark In The Mornin looks to have every chance in this contest given the form of his recent […]
It was a horrible day on Wednesday, with all selections running considerably under par. Overall, punters were hammered at Punchestown, with most of the favourites being turned over, most notably Galopin Des Champs, who was sent off as a 1/2 favourite to win the Punchestown Gold Cup. I’d like to apologise in advance for the late post. A few things […]
It was a tough day at Punchestown on Tuesday and I’m disappointed to not at least come away with one winning selection. Dinoblue was my main selection on Tuesday and she was probably the most disappointing of the three selections I put up. I was surprised to see her off the bridle that far from home as I expected her […]
I’ve no real excuse for Pastrol Way’s performance on Monday. It was disappointing to see him fade so tamely as he was quick out of the gates and right up with the pace during the start of the race. The money poured in for him during the day and he was backed into favourite before the off. It just goes […]
The race for the Premier League title looks set to go to the wire with Arsenal and Man City once again in the main roles, just like last season. In this article, we will look at the outright Premier League title odds, what has changed after the most recent results, and what could change in the final three rounds of […]
Sunday was a good day as both selections won with something in hand. The double paid around 8.5/1 If you took the advised odds when I posted last night. Ciara Pearl is clearly a filly on the up and on that recent performance there should be more improvement to come as she still looks ahead of her current mark. My […]
My sole selection on Saturday was a losing one as Thunder Roar was unable to land a blow on the eventual winner. My selection did start to motor down the straight but the winner had already put countless lengths between himself and the field and It just wasn’t possible. I’ve two selections today which come from Southwell and Bath. Blue […]
The Moore and Charlton combo did me another favour on Friday as they landed me another winner with Hand Of God who won at advised odds of 15/8. Hand Of God looks a real nice prospect going forward for connections and I’m looking forward to seeing him next time out. Ryan Moore gave him a great ride from the front […]
Flowering finished second after bumping into an improver from the William Haggas yard. I mentioned in my write-up last night that I was giving her one more chance, and on that note, I’ll not be backing her again. There is no doubt Flowering will win races at that low level, but chasing it until she does is simply not on […]
It was nice to land a winner on Wednesday with Special Dragon who on that performance looks ahead of her mark and open to further progress down the line. The winning run unfortunately came to an end for Sunday Soldier. To her credit she gave it a good to complete the six-timer, but ultimately the handicapper always catches up in […]
It has been a tough few days or so with the form dipping since after the Aintree festival. Form tends to come in patches in this game but sticking to the process is key and hopefully a return to form is only around the corner. In regards to Tuesdays selections, Chief Little Rock didn’t stay the trip as well as […]
It was an incredibly frustrating Monday with all three of my selections finishing in second place. After the second selection placed, I knew right away it was one of those days. Bonza Boy jumped out to the right on about 95% of his fences, throwing away the race in the process. Lightening Company simply bumped into an improver on the […]
Yesterdays selection was unfortunately a losing one. Toimy Son as I expected sat towards the rear of the field, at one point he looked like he was starting to make up ground on the leaders, but It wasn’t to be. There is plenty of racing on Monday, but It’s all pretty low quality stuff, which is to be expected. Regardless, […]
It was a disappointing Saturday, with most of my selections running below par. Git Maker wasn’t a worthy price to advise as an each way- play, he did plug on to finish third in the Scottish Grand National which was as close as we came to a winning selection on Saturday. I was extremely disappointed with Deeper Blue, his jumping […]
The two main spring racing festivals may be over, but there are still plenty of competitive jumps racing ahead, which will ultimately decide a lot from now until the end of the season. We still have a race for the trainers’ championship, which looks like a three-way battle between Dan Skelton, Willie Mullins, and Paul Nicholls. All three have strong […]
Friday saw us land another winner with my main selection, Catch Him Derry, winning at advised odds of 2/1. When I was doing my write-up, I thought 2/1 was great value for that selection, and it proved as he shortened into 5/6 overnight and won in the style that an odds-on shot should do. I also had two other selections […]
There wasn’t much to say about Pen Portraits performance yesterday other than he struggled to get involved in what was a competitive minefield of a race. Ayr, Newbury and Bath are the three courses I’ve concentrated on for Fridays racing and hopefully we can find a winner from somewhere. Catch Him Derry 2/1 – Ayr 2:20 I think Catch Him […]
Apologies in advance, Eye Of Dubai was indeed demoted to second place due to interference ( Watched replay and complete nonsense of a decision) so technically we only had one winner from two however after looking online there is online bookmakers who paid out on Eye Of Dubai so depending on where you placed your bet it could of been a […]
I’m disappointed that my sole selection on Monday wasn’t able to finish the race off after travelling nicely into it from off the pace. A blunder at the last stopped his momentum, which ultimately cost him in the end. Tuesday marks the start of some nice flat racing at Newmarket. It should be a nice eye-opener and an opportunity to […]
The opener at Plumpton was one of those races were the field allowed the front runner to go 15/20 lengths clear for most of the race and it ended up being a dash a fair way from home to see who could get to the long term leader and unfortunately my selection yesterday couldn’t land a blow. I’m a firm […]
The Aintree Grand National festival has come to an end, and overall, I can’t complain about the form over the three days. Day one saw us land a treble, day two was a blank (I’m still kicking myself for not advising Conflated EW), and day three saw two N/R, but it didn’t matter as we landed a 1-2 in the […]
It was a case of close but not close enough for my selections on day two of the Aintree Grand National festival. Heart Wood looked to be travelling best when entering the business end and, in my opinion, looked the most likely winner, but from out of nowhere, the eventual winner, inothewayurthinkin, got a second wind and stormed through to […]
Our resident horse racing tipster, Cairnzy, has put together a step-by-step guide to this year’s 2024 Grand National. The guide will cover the following: Race starting times TV schedule for watching the Grand National A brief overview of each horse taking part and their chances of winning Cairnzy’s own personal selections for the big race The Grand National is hours away and […]
If everyone knows you like a bet then they’ll be looking to you run a sweepstake for the Grand National, right? So here’s a handy printable Sweeptake Kit for the big race.
The opening day of the Aintree Grand National Festival was a great spectacle, and with all three of my selections winning on the day, I couldn’t have asked for a better start. If you took the treble it paid roughly 14/1 depending on what odds you got at the time of placing your bet. Day two of the festival is […]
Day one of the Aintree Grand National festival is here and what a cracking day of racing we have to look forward to. The weather has continued to take its toll and as a result we have a fair few withdrawals which is unfortunate. Unfortunate particularly from a betting point of few as the first three grade ones of the […]
The Grand National is very much on the horizon and the buzz for the world’s greatest steeplechase continues as we approach the big day. The handicapper has had his say and the weights for the race have been released for us to see. At present a total of 58 horses hold entries for Aintree but of that list will shorten […]
In regards to yesterdays main selection I can’t help but feel a bit hard done by. The gamble of the day was on Illusionist who unfortunately was beaten on the line. He was backed into 11/4 favourite after I tipped him up last night at 10/1 EW. If you managed to get on the price last night before it shortened […]
Aerospace provided us with another winner yesterday after getting up on the line to win by a neck. My second selection was an each-way play on Far Above Mary who missed out on the placings by one which was unfortunate. She ran far too green and was pushed on fairly early into the race. Similar to her previous outing, she […]
It was nice to land another winner yesterday as Trac won at drifted odds at 10/1! They went a fair gallop out in-front on testing ground which set the race up nicely for those travelling in behind. Trac had to be asked a few times to keep tabs on those in front but he responded to the jockeys urgings and […]
The weather continued to take its toll on racing as one of my two selections ended up as void due to the meeting at the Curragh being abandoned. Old Harrovian blew his chances from the start after refusing to settle for Oisin Murphy. I thought after Oisin reigned him back in behind a few horses that he would maybe settle […]
It was nice to land a double yesterday with both selections winning with something in hand. The double paid roughly 17/1 depending on what prices you got, regardless it is a nice return and well done if you took the gamble on both. Oisin Murphy decided to take Purefoy to the front and he didn’t see another rival the entire […]
Warwick was abandoned due to a waterlogged track yesterday which resulted in me having just the two selections yesterday. Both ran with credit but could only manage second place. Ali Star Bert was a frustrating one as the favourite was pulled up and it then was basically a two horse race. It looked at one point like my selection was […]
It was nice to land a winner yesterday with Eye Of Dubai who seems to plow through testing ground with ease. The step up in trip worked a treat and he is definitely one to look out for next time out, as he looks a fair bit ahead of his current mark on that performance. There is plenty of racing […]
The meeting at Pontefract was a punters nightmare with some strange results popping up. My main selection Federal Envoy looked home and dry when heading into the final couple of furlongs. He was trading at 1/5 in play at one point but all of a sudden hung drastically to the right, throwing the race away in the process. Vintage Clarets […]
Not a great day unfortunately. My main selection Lion’s Pride just wasnt good enough and Dubai Honours class showed in the end as Ryan Moore hit the front in a matter of strides as they turned the bend and that was that. I’d like to know was backed further in the market into strong favourite from 5/2. He went to the […]
The Irish Grand National 2024 is upon us and although it’s not as thought of as the English Grand National it’s still a cracking spectacle and one of the most exciting and competitive races in the National Hunt calendar. I’ve created a step by step guide to the race below which includes some key facts and figures which you may […]
Before we talk racing I’d like to wish my good friend Rizz all the best in the future. It can be a lonely old game tipping horses as you open yourself up to scrutiny but Rizz was nothing short of brilliant and I’m sure my thoughts are echoed throughout the rest of the racing thread. Although I was only stand […]
Rizzel has decided to take Sunday off so I’ve been asked to step in to cover. It’s been a while since I’ve been on the thread but it’s good to see all the usual faces in the comments section are still here and giving their input into the thread. Sunday’s racing cards aren’t that great, there’s some okay racing in […]
I hope everyone is keeping well and is looking forward to the horse racing jump season kicking in. I know most on the thread prefer the jumps. Those that follow me will know I much prefer the flat. I didn’t get involved that much this season in terms of posting selections on the thread and to be perfectly honest this […]
My good friend Rizz is feeling a tad under the weather, so I’ve been asked to step in for tomorrow’s racing in his absence. I can’t remember the last time I was on the thread covering the racing and on top of that I can’t remember the last time my beloved Everton picked up 3 points! Rizz has done well […]
I was unable to make it a hat-trick of wins with my sole selection letting me down. Riversway didn’t have any excuses in my opinion. She was bang there a furlong or so from the line and when asked to quicken found little of the bridle when asked to go win the race. Another competitive day of Saturday racing is […]
It was nice to land another winner yesterday with Significantly who won at a drifted price of 4/1. He was well handicapped and won quite nicely in the end after travelling up well against the rail. My main fancy Boyfriend was massively disappointing. I tipped him up at 3/1 and mentioned he was one of the weaker prices towards the […]
Swift Asset returned the goods for me in my only selection of the day. It was nice to land a winner and end a frustrating few days of racing. He travelled nicely in behind with some cover and when the gap opened he galloped through with ease. He still looked a tad green in my opinion in particular when he […]
Roaring Legend is becoming an expensive horse to follow for me. Extremely consistent but extremely frustrating. I thought he did everything right again and was travelling nicely but was mowed down by the eventual winner Beraz whos clearly benefited from the recent wind op. My other selection James Watt had no excuses, the gap was there to be taken if […]
My main fancy Barg ran a complete stinker and it was an outsider at 10/1 who ended up winning after me assuming it was a 2 horse race. Im not sure what happened with Barg, he was sat in 3rd a little bit of the pace and when they quickened he found next to nothing of the bridle and quickly […]
His Majesty was unfortunately a losing selection for me on Sunday. They went quite a pace from the front and it looked like he got caught a bit flat footed at stages as the front two went clear. Mondays your typical day of poor racing but I’m hoping I can bounce back with a winner. Barg 7/4 – 3:15 Pontefract […]
It was a typical Saturday of racing. Competitive as ever and hard to find the winners. Pogo ran a better race but just wasn’t good enough on the day and Adjuvant grabbed a place which would of resulted in you at least covering your stake with a slight profit on the returns but nothing to get excited about. A prime […]
Rizzel as he’s already mentioned is away on holiday for a week so I’ve been asked to cover the horse racing tips in his absence. Hopefully, I can find some profit in the upcoming week of racing. Newcastle 2:05 – Adjuvant 6/1 EW I’ve been slaughtered on here by a few and backed up by a few in the past […]
Royal Ascot has been a nice spectacle so far with some great performances and of course, some big upsets which is to be expected. With day 3 on the horizon, I thought I’d jump on with a sole selection. Infinite Cosmos – 3:40 Royal Ascot – 8/1 or 4/1 Betting without favourite. This is a cracking race and all eyes […]
I can’t remember the last time I posted on the thread. It’s been a while, that’s for sure. Most know me for tipping on the flat, particularly in the UK. For some reason this year I just haven’t been as interested and have opted to take a backwards step from posting. I have of course still been watching the big […]
Ottoman Fleet returned a nice winner for me on the day at advised odds of 15/8. I thought the fitness edge would play into his favour and when they went quite quickly on the front end I was quietly confident a fair bit from home. William Buick gave him a lovely ride from the rear of the field. He ran […]
First of all, I was delighted when asked by the guys at MFT to cover the Randox Grand National Guide this year but was even more delighted to call the eventual winner alongside my good pal Rizzel. It’s a gruelling old study covering 40 horses but it all worked out in the end! Rizz is feeling a tad unwell, so […]
Welcome to my preview of the 2023 Grand National, the most famous steeplechase in the world. As always, the anticipation for the big race is immense, with millions of viewers tuning in to watch 40 horses tackle the daunting fences at Aintree. This year’s lineup may not feature the strongest set of runners we’ve seen, but it still promises to […]
Tomorrow marks the start of the flat season kicking into gear and we have some cracking races to get dug into! Tropez Power 12/1 EW – Doncaster 2:25 A wide-open and competitive contest over the straight mile and its a bit of a minefield but my eyes were drawn to Tropez Power for trainer John Quinn. This one’s career has […]
It’s been quite a while since I’ve been active on the thread. I opted last minute to not get involved in tipping at the Cheltenham festival. I of course had a punt during the 4 days but didn’t have much luck. I hit the crossbar on multiple occasions on doubles and trebles with the shorter-priced runners shiskin and Mighty Potter […]
With the Cheltenham Festival just around the corner, I thought I’d jump on with a couple of selections before getting tucked Into a busy week of racing next week. Monty Man 25/1 EW – Southwell 2:25 I might be going a bit mad in the head with this selection given he is a complete outsider at 25/1 but I thought […]
Mortlach won nicely on the day and rewarded me with another winner for the week. Nothing sweeter than watching the jockey take a couple of glances over the shoulder and between the legs to see what’s happening around him. Paddy knew he had a good bit of horse underneath him to go land the spoils. Rizz returns tomorrow evening with […]
Shiskin bounced back and rewarded me with another winner on what was a competitive day of racing. Although he didn’t really beat much in my opinion he still jumped perfectly, travelled beautifully and found more up the straight when asked to go win. Things were a miss on his previous couple of runs. Erne River let me down on my […]
I can’t really believe the recent form since stepping in to cover for this short period. 6 winners from 7 selections is a nice return. Flat AW racing has served me well these last 3 or 4 days, I understand its not everyone’s cup of tea on here with most preferring the jumps but it’s what I focus on and […]
The winning run continued as both of my predictions won nicely on the day. You wear it well was head and shoulders above the rest on the day whilst Oisin Murphy returned to the race track to get up on Jupiter Express. Friday’s racing can only be described as pathetic but I do have another 2 selections for you all […]
It was another winning day at the office and a pretty good one at that with Golden Sands winning at advised odds of 10/1! My short-priced selection jumped like a snooker table and that ultimately ruined any chances on that one. I haven’t had much time to study tomorrow’s cards and therefore only have 1 main selection for tomorrow from […]
Diligent Harry returned a winning selection for me. Tipped at odds of 11/4 and shortened as expected. He ended up going off at 7/4. Always nice to start off a return to the thread with a win and hopefully we can continue that throughout the rest of the week. I’ve two selections for tomorrow one from the meeting at Hereford […]
Rizz is on a break and the guys at MFT have called upon me to cover again in his absence. I was in hibernation mode for a while there, patiently waiting for the flat season to arrive but I’ll never turn down an opportunity to take the hot seat and cover my good pal rizz! In the meantime hopefully I […]
I haven’t been active since Rizzels returned but thought I’d jump on this evening for some tips on Wednesday’s horse racing card. Fingers crossed we can land some profit! Book Of Secrets 5/4 – Southwell 3:10 After studying Wednesday’s racing the one runner that stood out the most for me was the Skelton trained Book Of Secrets. Book Of Secrets […]
Purple Ribbon was disappointing to say the least, she was travelling okay until the pace quickened. She was then taken a little too wide in my opinion and found nothing when push came to shove. The eventual winner looks an exciting prospect for connections and took the hike in the weights like it was nothing. Rizz returns from his break […]
Trying to pick the bones out of poor-quality racing can be an absolute nightmare and that’s been the case for me the past few days. My selection was one of the gambles of the day that never went in our favour. He drifted out to 9s at one point and was backed right into favourite before the off. He was […]
Another disappointing day of racing awaits us on Friday as the weather again confirms cancellations up and down the country. I’ll be honest absolutely nothing has caught my eye in terms of having a confident selection for tomorrow therefore I have decided to have a small punt on a horse at an each-way price that interested me. I don’t advise […]
Fast Style looked to have the race in the bag but the eventual winner battled back and got the head in front. Tom Marquand who rode a few short-priced favourites had a bit of a stinker day at the office but it happens in this game. Ray Of Colours was just rubbish full stop and there isn’t much more else […]
Tuesday’s meeting was abandoned at Chepstow due to the cold conditions. Although I only had one selection up it is always frustrating when you do a study and a write-up and it means nothing in the end. That being said, the jockey’s and horse’s well-being will always be a priority in these circumstances and that’s the most important thing. No […]
Hit Mac returned another winning selection for the racing thread here at MFT and I’m glad I stuck by him. That horse doesn’t know how to settle and I thought it was curtains 2 furlong from home as he was pulling his head from the get-go but he stuck on gamely to land the spoils. I’ve just one selection tomorrow; […]
Copy Artist was mowed down in the straight to lose out on the line by around a head which was frustrating. I don’t think she did much wrong besides being beaten by the better horse on the day. Jockey David Probert dropped his whip about 100 yards from home, whether one more whip cost him the race is a slight […]
It was a great day yesterday as my only horse racing tip of the day won at odds of 12/1! Iwilldoit did just that! Stayed like a champion and jumped like a champion. It’s always nice to land one like that, especially when you do a bit of study and the horse performs exactly as you expected it too. Well […]
To say I was hit for 6 on Friday would be an understatement, as all 3 racing tips were well beaten. Hidalgo De L’isle was out stayed on the run-in, the trip of a mile looked too short for Fox Tail which I got wrong as I thought it would suit and Tathmeen didn’t place. I’m not sure if anyone […]
Imperial Ace made it another winning day at the office, winning at advised odds of 10/3. He was backed Into 5/2 before the off and took a significant step forward from that debut run I mentioned in my previous write-up and won quite comfortably in the end. On the other hand, I was massively disappointed with Quercus Robur who was […]
It was nice to get another winner on the board in the shape of Rabaah who looked a bit keen at the start but won as an odds-on favourite should. The price remains around 4/5 and I stand by my original comment that 4/5 was great value for that selection who I thought would have shortened. My 2nd selection Billy […]
It was a bitterly disappointing day. My each-way play Lihyan drifted out to 25s but actually ran a decent race given the conditions but unfortunately didn’t manage to hit the frame. Skytasic was my main selection of the day and was extremely disappointing. I personally didn’t think he was travelling that badly but he quickly came off the bridle a […]
Yesterday’s sole my sole selection was a faller. It always leaves a sour taste in your mouth when it happens. Especially when the backed-in favourite was eventually turned over by a 9/1 shot. Brian Hughes had Aubis Walk tucked in behind and travelling nicely. She normally jumps well but unfortunately, her front legs clipped the top of a hurdle and […]
The winning run came to an unfortunate end with my selection Harry Brown only managing 3rd place. Monday’s racing looks okay, more so from a jumps perspective than the flat. I’ve decided to stick with the jumps and avoid the low-class sprints at the evening meeting. Aubis Walk 11/8 – 1:10 Ayr A 7 runner race that the bookies have […]
Cairnzy is hoping to keep the streak running with a sole selection at Southwell on Sunday. Tahmuras returned another winning selection for me and kept the winning form going. He looks a proper nice sort for connections and from listening to Harry Cobden afterwards he too seems to think they have a lovely one going forward. Authorised Speed was very […]
Cairnzy returns with a single selection for the Racing action at Sandown Park. I was delighted to keep the winning form going as my NAP won easily in the shape of Haaland who was clear a couple of furlongs out. He drifted out to 2/1 at one point and if you managed to grab it at that price then you […]
Cool Lightning ran out a winner for the thread after making all and winning on the line by roughly a head. It was nice to get a winning selection on the board for the week, always pressure when stepping in to cover rizz as he always leaves big shoes to fill. Fingers crossed I can continue that over the course […]
It was a disappointing day, My main selection Shadowfax drifted from 4s out to 9s as the eventual winner was backed well in. When I saw the drift I knew I was probably in trouble and the performance showed just that. Shadowfax went quite hard tracking the pacesetter and went home quite early and was very quickly swallowed up. My […]
Cairnzy steps in for us on the racing thread while Rizz takes a well-earned break… I’ve gone for 2 selections tomorrow. My NAP which comes from Newcastle and I’ve also thrown up something a bit different in a double. I’ll not bore you all with a write-up on the double as we would be here all night but if you […]
With Rizzle unable to cover tomorrow’s racing tips I’ve been asked to step in and cover. Only two AW meetings tomorrow in regards to the UK side of things and as expected it’s on the pretty poor quality side of things. Probably best to either keep your money in your pocket or if you are having a punt keep the […]
Its been a while since I’ve been active on the thread. Mainly due to it being jump season and me opting not to get involved as much in class 6 races at Southwell every evening due to the consistency being similar to that of catching my missus in a good mood. All that aside there are people within the thread […]
It was nice to land a horse racing double at the weekend after being absent from the site for a few weeks. The highlight had to be my boy Frodon winning, I absolutely adore that horse and to watch him win in the fashion he did made my weekend! Metier won at an advised price of 10/1, you see it […]
It’s been a while since I’ve posted, more so because the jumps is back and it’s not really my strong point but with my favourite flat horse in Strad being recently retired, Frodon is the last one standing of horses who I have a soft spot for so I couldn’t help but jump on and give him a mention. Wincanton […]
I thought I’d jump on for a sole selection on Sunday at Goodwood fingers are crossed for a winning day to cover some beverages! Eminency 15/8 – Goodwood 3:35 I think Clive Cox’s 2yo Eminency has all the credentials to defy top weight and make a returning return to the track after a small month break. He showed a willing […]
Friday’s racing has arrived again, is it just me or is the time absolutely whizzing by? Your usual busy Friday of competitive racing is upon us and I’m hoping I can pick out a winner from Ascot. Aggagio 13/8 – Ascot 14:35 I really fancy the chances of Aggagio in the 14:35. He’s a tough sort who seems to always […]
With Rizz feeling unwell I’ve been asked again to step in and cover some mid week racing. I had a nice winner on Sunday in the shape of Ndaawi. The Charlie Appleby runner who was sent off favourite at around 8/11 wasn’t at the races at all and my selection knuckled down well on the day to get a well […]
With Rizzel absent for tomorrows racing I’m stepping in to cover. Not the greatest of quality on offer tomorrow but there is a few races that I’ve decided to get involved in. As usual, let me know in the comments your fancies for today’s racing. Ndaawi ( Betting Without Favourite) 6/5 – Epsom Downs 2:15 Charlie Applebys Castle Way is […]
ITV Racing returns on a jam-packed day of racing and I’ve opted for 2 selections both of which come from the meeting at Newmarket. Whitebeam 4/1 – 1:50 Newmarket I think Roger Charltons Whitebeam is definitely worth a punt in the opener at Newmarket. There’s strong reason to believe she can continue her progress in this rise to listed level. […]
UK Racing returns and I’ve jumped on for a sole selection at Beverley. Let me know in the comments your fancies for Tuesday’s racing. Acklam Express 7/4 – 3:27 Beverley Nigel Tinklers Acklam Express won’t have a better opportunity than to end a losing streak that stretches back 2 years when he contests the Eddie and Violet Smith conditions stake […]
I wasn’t planning on jumping on for Friday’s racing as nothing caught my eye at the start. Then I noticed in my tracker a horse that I noted from a debut run back in June is running in the opener at Newbury and I fancy having a small each-way play on it. Verdansk 5/1 EW – Newbury 1:23 pm A […]
With British sport at a standstill at present as the nation mourns the passing of the Queen, I’ve been given no other option but to go hunting at Leopardstown. Don’t get me wrong the card at Leopardstown today is top notch but I’m not a massive fan of Irish racing and with tomorrow’s card being as competitive as ever it […]
Not a day to rant and rave about. Stone of destiny was placed at 8/1 earning some small change in place money. Novemba ran an absolute stinker and I’m not even going to get into it because I’m still annoyed about it. I’ve just gone for a sole selection tomorrow at Doncaster. I’m not really fussed on the rest of […]
Both of yesterday’s selections ran below par. It was a similar performance for Elegant Charm who travelled well until the business end then when asked to go win the race found nothing. Morando didn’t run too badly even though finishing last. The quality of the race fell apart with 2 runners being pulled out and the eventual winner did it […]
With Rizz away on holiday soaking up the rays I have been left in the hot seat to provide this week’s horse racing tips! Elegant Charm 11/2 EW – Leicester 1:30 14 go to post for the division one British stallion studs EBF fillies novice stakes at Leicester. Not a fan of tipping on 2-year-olds as most of you will […]
Yesterday’s selection was unfortunately announced as a non-runner. Not sure about the reasons behind it. Tomorrow is another busy Saturday with plenty of competitive racing to get tucked into. Marie’s Diamond 20/1 EACH WAY – Haydock 1:45 I could be going absolutely bonkers on this one but I think Roger Teals Marie’s Diamond could represent a bit of value in […]
Friday has arrived again, the weeks are flying by and another few days of decent racing is on the horizon. Hats off to Rizzle who may not have had a winner yesterday but his form of recent has been nothing short of outstanding! Well done mate! I’ve just a sole racing tip for tomorrow’s action, let me know in the […]
Friday’s racing has arrived in the blink of an eye, and as usual, we’ve another ram-packed selection of racing to get tucked into. It’s not often I throw up 3 racing tips, hopefully, I don’t go running with my tail between my legs! 4:20 Newmarket – Simply Sondheim 11/10 Only 6 runners in this field but I think this is […]
Brighton is my main hunting ground tomorrow for Monday’s racing. I’ve decided to throw up 2 selections. Well done to Rizz, some beautiful winners over the last few days! Summerland in particular the pick of the bunch! That horse absolutely loves large fields! Onto the selections, Porfin 5/2 – 1:00 Brighton A class 5 and a small 6 runner field […]
Cairnzy is back with a free racing tip for Friday’s racing action at York. I decided to avoid day 2 of York for a couple of reasons. One being I wasn’t feeling great yesterday and never got round to doing a proper study and two being after a quick glance at the cards nothing really stood out for me. I […]
York has arrived and I’m delighted that we’ve another ram-packed few days of top-quality horse racing! On day one, all eyes are on the almighty Baheed as he steps up in distance and is expected to destroy the rest of the field by the sounds of it. I’ll not be having a bet on that particular race but 4/9 you […]
It was another winning day yesterday with Tempus turning the tables with Modern News. If you got on at 4/1, you are laughing. I’m absolutely delighted to call that one and to be quite honest I was quietly confident. It was encouraging to see the money come for it first of all and second of all, when I see bookmakers […]
Cairnzy returns with another sole Racing selection after Glorious Breeze returned a winning selection yesterday. It looked like William Cox was going to win on the bridle. I was waiting on him pushing the button a furlong out to go on and win comfortably but for some strange reason, he waited till the final one hundred yards. He won the […]
Cairnzy is back with a midweek racing pick at Salisbury. It was nice to jump on at the weekend with another nice 7/2 winner in the shape of Mr McCaan. My write-up was pretty much bang on the money and it was good to keep the winning momentum going on the racing thread here at MFT. Hats off to Rizz […]
Good morning all, I firstly apologise for the late post. I’ve just landed in Liverpool to watch my beloved Everton get a spanking later from Chelsea. Given I had to get the early flight over from Belfast I’ve decided to jump on with a couple of selections. Bare in mind, this study was done in the local McDonald’s with a […]
It was nice to jump on at the weekend and land 2 selections out of 3. I managed to tip up Rocchigiani to win betting without favourite at 9/2 and my write up was pretty much bang on the money. Tom Marquand raced up with the pace and stayed on beautifully to land the spoils against the 3 market leaders. […]
I’ve decided to jump on for a day of Glorious Goodwood and offer everyone something a little different by using the different types of markets that bookmakers offer online. I’m not totally sure if you’ll be able to get these sort of markets in store but ask behind the counter and they maybe will be able to offer it. If […]
It’s been a while since I’ve posted a tip in the racing section and thought I’d opt for a sole selection today for you all. Great to see Rizz back in form with some beautiful selections over the last while as well. Curragh 3:20 – Ha Ha Ha – 3/1 I tend to avoid Irish racing like a plague which […]
I planned on throwing up 3 selections in total but Rizz has already hit the nail on the head with the two I was going to choose, Addeybb and Golden Voice, so I’ll not bore you all with another write up on those two selections. Thought I would at least add them in as it’s probably good to have two […]
With Rizzel feeling under the weather, I’ve been asked to cover Sunday’s racing tips. Wishing him a speedy recovery! Not really much on offer in terms of quality but I’ve had a quick look and scraped together a selection that I think could run a big race at decent odds. My selections on Friday unfortunately were duds. My outsider selection […]
It’s nice to jump back on the thread again. It’s been a while since I had any selections for you all. The original plan was to jump on for any ITV meetings which had racing of any sort of significance so apologies in advance that I had nothing for last weekend at Epsom. I’ve decided to jump on Friday’s and […]
It was nice to jump on the thread on Monday and land a nice deserved winner. Rattling drifted from 11/8 out to 11/5 and won with just about enough in hand. He got a nice toe into the race when tracking the Archie Watson runner. He hit the front when they went for home and the line came in time […]
I apologise in advance that I didn’t have anything up for the recent big meetings on the flat but I’ve decided to jump on tomorrow to make up for lost time, fingers crossed I can get a winner from somewhere. 1:20 Wolverhampton Straight away my eyes were drawn to GOLDEN GAL in the opener at Wolverhampton. She’s been a model […]
It’s nice to jump back on the thread with some nice racing on the flat at Lingfield on Saturday. Although I’m not active on the comments or posting as regular as I was, I’m still always keeping an eye on everything and in contact with Rizz and it’s great to see him on hot form at present! Just one selection […]
Hello to everyone and I hope everybody is well! As promised previously I said I’d jump on the thread for any big meetings and with Tuesday’s card at Punchestown being filled with top class racing I thought I’d come on. Punchestown 4.15 On paper a two-horse race between the Mullins pair of DYSART DYNAMO and Sir Gerhard. The current market […]
I decided on avoiding the final day of Aintree after having a pretty poor day on the Friday. After seeing the results it was probably for the best with some nice types like Edwardstone and Flooring Porter getting turned over and my main fancy in the national getting turned over in the straight to finish 2nd against a 50/1 shot. […]
What a fantastic day of racing we have on Friday. Before we go any further hats off to Rizzel with his last selection of the day, The Last Day winning at 12/1! Well done mate! I’ve decided on two selections both at the meeting at Aintree. Aintree 2:20 Jonbon was no match for Constitution Hill at Cheltenham but his effort […]
One runner at Southwell has caught Cairnzy’s eye and he expects it to strip fitter for the recent run and more improvement is expected from connections.
It’s been a pretty frustrating week with a case of seconditis hitting our racing thread quite badly. As Rizzel already summed up on his write up last night, the study is normally bang on the money but the luck just isn’t there at present. Hopefully the tide will turn quickly and the winners start coming again. Harrow, as I expected, […]
It was nice to land a winner on Monday with bless him winning at a tipped price of 2/1. There were no Monday blues for Jamie Spencer that day as he seemed to be in the winner’s enclosure anytime I looked at the TV. His ride on Bless Him was described by commentators as a Jamie Spencer “Masterclass” It always […]
It was an up and down day in regards to my 4 selections on Saturday but I’m more than happy with the result with some big priced winners popping up as I mentioned would probably happen in Fridays write up. Garrus was massively disappointing, Marco Ghiani was pushing and shoving him forward to get a better position and when the […]
To say I’m glad to see the back of the Cheltenham Festival would be an understatement. It was the worst 4 days of tipping I’ve had in a long. A lot of second place finishes, a faller at the last who was clear to win and a few real below par efforts from highly rated horses ended my 4 days […]
