DOUBLES & TRIXIE RESULTS UPDATE

Just one winner yesterday out  of eight selections.  I made a stupid mistake by entering £4 under the Trixie stake which meant that I placed £16 instead of £4.  I got one winner there but could not trade out of it.  Never mind, it won’t happen again.  Anyway, I am very pleased with this new strategy and I very much look forward to seeing how I do with it in August.

FOUR DOUBLES AND TWO TREBLES

I have decided that it will be better for me to invest my Trixie stake of £4 in the form of 2 x £2 trebles for the rest of August.  I considered a £4 single treble but I do like to trade my bets when the opportunity arises (not cash out) so I will see how this approach works.

DOUBLES & TRIXIE RESULTS UPDATE

One winner today.  I tried a back/lay bet on Allegient in the 6.20 at Epsom.  I took the odds of 4.5.  It drifted before the off but my odds of 2.74 were matched in-running .  This meant that I had a nil liability but it finished second so I did not get my multiples money back.

NO DOUBLES OR TREBLES TODAY

I COULD ONLY FIND FIVE POSSIBLE RACES TODAY.  HOWEVER, TWO OF THE RACES HAD IN MY OPINION TWO EQUALLY VIABLE SELECTIONS WHILST THE OTHER THREE RACES ARE AT CARLISLE WHERE THE GOING IS FORECAST AS BEING HEAVY WITHOUT ENOUGH POSSIBLE SELECTIONS WITH PROVEN FORM IN SUCH TESTING CONDITIONS.  LOOKS LIKE A DAY FOR THE BOOKIES TO MAKE LOTS OF MONEY.  NOT FROM ME THOUGH.  

RESULTS UPDATE:

TWO WINNERS AND A SECOND.  LUCKILY THE TWO WERE IN A DOUBLE WHICH PAID £104.25.  ENGROSSED DRIFTED LIKE A BARGE TO 13/2 WHILST CARADOC  SHORTENED INTO 11/10F.  ALL THIS MEANT THAT INSTEAD OF £67.48 I RECEIVED £104.25.  THIS VALUE LESS £16 OUTLAY = A NET PROFIT OF £88.25 ON THE DAY.  IT IS A FUNNY THING ABOUT HORSE RACING, SINCE MOST HORSES, LOSE IN A RACE IT IS OH SO SIMPLE TO CONCLUDE THAT THE MARKET GOT IT RIGHT ABOUT A DRIFTER WHEN IT LOSES, HOWEVER WHEN A HORSE WINS LIKE “ENGROSSED” DID AT 13/2 FROM 7/2 THE MARKET CLEARLY GOT IT ALL WRONG.  FOOD FOR THOUGHT? I WAS VERY DISAPPOINTED WITH FANTASTIC FLYER. IT RAN NO SORT OF RACE AND FINISHED SECOND TO LAST AT 3/1F. DON’T KNOW WHAT HAPPENED THERE.  HAD BUG BOY WON THE 7.30 AT WINDSOR I WOULD HAVE ADDED £239.77 TO MY TALLY (JUST DAYDREAMING).

[Kingmambo]

From what i can see u have big problems and the first would be the bet in general and how it is a self defeating mechanism that wastes your money and profit.From my experience with multiple bets over the years is that any multiples that are fully covered are this kiss of death of the punter.If the first horse wins at 50/1 and the second one wins at 5/1 and the third horse loses then u have brought back £306 but u have just lost £358 on the other bets because u were fully covered in this example.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  The best way that i found was that it was much better to take 3 selection and have 2 doubles A+B / B+C.By doing this u can double your money but spend the same money as u would u could also do a treble and a double from three selections like this A+B+C / B+C.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                The other problem that i came across is your selection process is not really going to cut it with multiples from what i can see many of the horses u pick are only good enough for single bets.With multiples u need consistency and if your bets have no consistency to them u will not be consistent in the end so getting consistent is the only answer.You would do much better if u only backed 3yr / 4yr old's course or distance winners trainers like Stoute Johnston Gosden (That Are In Form) jockeys like Fanning Dettori (That Are In Form) and progeny of top class stallions like Dubawi & Frankel and from owners like Juddmonte Shadwell Godolphin.                                                                        

[The Equaliser]

@Kingmambo. One thing I will say is that no matter how one selects their bets you will find that the horses just do not perform as they should do.  I can still remember backing Mustashary in a op class race.  All it had to do was replicate what it did in its last recent race to win.  It did not.  I wasted too much money on selecting just 3 runners for my Trixies in July.  I have now found it much better to have a wider range of selections in the hope that at least some of these beasts go and do what they should do according to form.  I purposely choose what are deemed to be "trappy" or "open" races because I believe that the bookies have the races with short priced favourites sewn up.

I am beginning to have real fun with my strategy now and will continue in this vein as I feel that it will come good very soon.

Best of luck with your strategy.  Do you have any results that I can look at so as to compare with my selection and betting method?

Three doubles and two trebles today.

I was going to take a day off today but just couldn’t help myself from having another go.

Doubles:

(A)   3.20 Sou (3) Royal Village 4/1, 5.0 Pont (1) Magical Effect 15/8 (steamed into from 3/1, should have taken 3/1 last night = £4 v £57.48

(B)   3.30 Pont ( 2) Perfection 9/2 (did take the price last night; now 7/2), 5.30 Pont( 8) Springwood Drive 11/4 = £4 V £82.48

(C)   2.50 Sou ( (1) Capital Force 5/2, 5.20 Sou Nemean Lion 6/1 = £4 V £98

Trebles:

(1)    3.20 Sou Royal Village, 3.30 Pont Perfection and 5.0 Pont Magical Effect  = £2 V £129.36

(2)    2.50 Sou Capital Force, 5.20 Sou Nemean Lion and 5.30 Pont Springwood Drive = £2 v £196.86

This equals £16 staked in total today.  Incidentally, should one of my first leg doubles blow out and I’m around I will place a £2 win double using the second leg selection with the next strongest selection available.  This is part of my overall strategy.  I am able to do this twice today to make up my full £20 wager for the day.  For obvious reasons any wins or losses have to be off the book figures as I cannot give the revised selections out properly in advance

Well, now you know why I don’t put great store by short-priced favourites.  Magical Effect was sent off 13/8F. It could only finish 3^rd beaten 1.75 lengths.  As Jenny Pitman used to say “It doesn’t matter how much money you put on a horse, it won’t make it run any faster”. Had it won I would have received £57.50 for the double and £129.38 for the treble = £186.88.  Not to be  though

I’m not complaining as I did at least get yet another double in for £82.50 less £16 = £66.50 on the day. Guess what I am now in accumulated profit and having a great run in August after allowing for a brought forward loss of £320 from July. This is an equivalent of £356.96/£2538.61 = 14% ROI.  Not bad for mug punters bets eh?

Well done. You certainly have sticking power I'll give you that!

@pirate53  I once read about the principle ingredients for intelligence, persistence was the only one I felt I qualified for.

You make a very valid point though.  Although I got it all wrong with Trixies back in July.  I didn't really give up on them but the wins were so infrequent that I found it depressing.  I was then committed to doubles and trebles throughout August and will continue to do so.  Unfortunately too many people give up too soon on a strategy.  Spreading my £20 among more than three selections seems to yield better results than just pinning my hopes on three.  The problem is that although all my selections are meant to run well the fact is that a lot of horses seem to have off days when they just do not live up to their reputations. Once I accepted this phenomenon I just increased my number of selections when and where possible in the belief that at least some of these animals would perform as they were supposed to do so.

Let's see if a few of our four-legged friends will run to form today.  Not a lot of strong contenders today but just like the bookies, I need turnover to make money.

Two winners but not in a double today.  My class 1 runner Persuasion could only finish 6^th, something not right there being beaten by 25/1 & 28/1 shots.  It shouldn’t have run should it?                        £20 loss on the day

The bookies are taking minimum risks today with loads of short-priced favourites.  I have found 8 selections and the only adjustment that I have made is to back Beyond the Clouds instead of Fox Vardy that has been smashed into.  The only worry about Beyond the Clouds is the going, but Hey, if the trainer isn’t worried why should I be.

Doubles:

(A)   2.15 Ffos (8) Tritonic 4/1, 4.55 Nm (2) Mina Vagente 10/3  = £4 v £86.64

(B)   1.55 YK (14) Mandarin 7/1, 6.35 (2) Geen Power 4/1 = £4 V £180.00

Treble:

(1)    1.55 YK Mandarin, 2.15 Ffos Tritonic and 4.55 Nm Mina Vagante  = £2 V £346.66

Results Update:

Three winners yesterday but no coupled double.  I missed out on two winning doubles because I was swayed by what I thought to be superior professional advice.  I don’t believe in hard luck stories but I shall be very guarded in the future about opposing my top-rated selections.  As it happened I did not lose on the day as I laid Gennady for £21.05 @ 1.47 which somehow got matched  (I do this for all my 2^nd leg doubles candidates. I don’t mind shaving £9.89 off a winning double). Anyway, it doesn’t count for my published figures.   

Hence, £20 loss on the day

A lot of racing today so I’m spoilt for choice.  I have only backed one at York in the 5.20.  I would love to see Kings Advice win the Ebor, but sentimentality doesn’t go hand in hand with professional betting does it?

Two winners but no double yesterday.  I did get my money back on a back/lay bet on Green Power.  I had a bit of a shock when the race went to a photo.  I wasn’t quick enough to back the other horse but luckily my horse won by a nose.  It doesn’t count for my published figures but it means a lot to me.   

Hence, £20 loss on the day
