Derab & Snow Lantern
Both declared for the opening maiden at Newbury on Sunday [5-4/7-4]
Should be a race if they both run, but the Hannon filly was a non runner earlier in the week due to fast going

Looks like being a juicy each way price for his seasonal debut tomorrow at Newbury (4.30)
Currently 22-1

Goes on the grass tomorrow in the last race at Newbury 
Tough handicap, but five places are available (6-1 currently on offer)

50-1 with Boylesports
Big ask straight into a Group 3, but if to justify his 2000 Guineas entry then a respectable run maybe on the cards

In the greenham stakes Sunday 14.45 33/1?

Not just last to first, but last to first in less than 2 furlongs!!
Thats a Group horse in disguise. 

Wow that was impressive coming from last place to Win easily 

Wow that was impressive coming from last place to Win easily 

I backed the horse and I watched the race. First of all it absolutely needed that first run. It had a bigger belly on it than me!!
Surprising as it was backed throughout the day, though weak in the 30 minutes leading up to the race. 
Had I seen the horse before I backed it, I would have saved by powder for another day. I thought the jockey had it poorly placed, racing wide throughout and didn't quicken approaching the last. Maybe it needs further, but I did not think it was a fit horse.

16 points on a hole in one in round 4 at 6/4 with PP my one bet for an (admittedly limited) interest. Based on research and bets I did 2 years ago, seems a reasonable price.

I'm backing six players for the straight win ahead of the start, all on the assumption that the top of the market is priced fairly at best whilst anything beyond 50 to 1 is that much less likely to take home the trophy. I may add to my position at the end of each round, but for now I've just got these on the exchanges, all of which I think occupy the sweet spot of good prices with a realistic chance of success.
5pts Rahm to win US Masters @ 14.50
5pts Cantlay to win US Masters @ 25.00
10pts Schauffele to win US Masters @ 29.00
5pts Morikawa to win US Masters @ 38.00
15pts Reed to win US Masters @ 44.00
10pts Hovland to win US Masters 48.00

Emporio will be a warm order tomorrow [Gowran Park,5.05]...trading now at 7-4

Based on a book I read 30 years ago................It suggested that a player improves after the birth of his first child(not sure about LPGA).
Something to do with the relief of the birth and the joy of having a child.
John Rahm became a daddy for the first time on Sunday so he will be carrying my money
2 pence e/w  John Rahm to win the masters 11/1 Sky Bet (11 places 1/5 the odds)
 
 
(disclaimer I lost £2000 in the 90's following advice of aforementioned book)

I've noticed on Skybet that they are offering a free £1 bet for every birdie if you bet with them. I've taken Thomas myself as a main bet. I can see Spieth being hammered in the betting but I just feel like he always has that one bad round. 
With a huge 10 places on offer with Paddy, I've also gone for Xander, Morikawa, Im and Kokrak as my outsiders.
3pts J.Thomas to win US Masters 11/1 Skybet
-------------------------------------------------------------
2pts e/w X.Schauffele to win US Masters 22/1 paddypower (10 places, 1/5th)
1pt e/w C.Morikawa to win US Masters 25/1 paddypower (10 places, 1/5th)
1pt e/w S.Im to win US Masters 45/1 paddypower (10 places, 1/5th)
1pt e/w J.Kokrak to win US Masters 80/1 paddypower (10 places, 1/5th)
 

I'm contemplating a few outright winners with Dustin Johnson and Justin Thomas leading my thinking at the moment. There's been a lot of hype around Lee Westwood being the oldest winner ever and even though I don't think he will win it I think he could be worth an e/w bet at 41.00 with Bet365. Webb Simpson is a leftfield choice I'm considering given his form and he's another that could be decent e/w value at 36.00 with Bet365.
In terms of a wildcard option, I do like @owenclass going for Collin Morikawa. He's shot up the world rankings and could be a dangerous player. I'm reluctant to back Bryson DeChambeau. I'm not sure the course plays into his style of play very well but he is learning to adapt his game a bit better so we'll see.

Morikawa

Really looking forward to this, Justin Thomas is the man in form and has a good Masters record 22-17-12-4 in the last 4 years, comes near the top in a lot of the stats the price seems reasonable 12/1 each way 9 places william hill. I'm also going for Patrick Reed 33/1 each way 8 places bet365. Near the top in putting stats and in good form this season with a win back in January and a top 10 in the WCG.  

DeChambeau 11/1
Rahm 13/1
Garcia 45/1
Scott 66/1
Wallace 100/1 

Paul Casey fantastic EW value 30/1 
Brooks Keopka 22/1 

Debut is in the last race at Cork tomorrow, a decent looking maiden
But will be a each way price,currently 10-1

Just seen this thread. You need help mate!!
I thought I was bad with my crush on Danielle Kang, where I just bet her blind at every opportunity.
At least when she has a bad round, she still looks great.?

Great to see star apprentice Benoit de la Sayette win the big race last Saturday...not so good to see him featuring in a potentially damning video on social media where he attended a party [2019] where cocaine was taken by others
Though the kid was not involved in that activity it gave further proof what temptations are around for a young jockey, and if he is to fulfill the role that many say in that he will in the next couple of years become the new stable jockey for John Gosden then he might be wise to watch the company he keeps in his leisure time

Yep, I’d say he’s going to have a very successful career regarding training horses.  It’s already clear to see. Heard his dad isn’t too bad either.
