Tips for Tikay

Been through all the maidens today. Most look very uncompetitive.

The 3.15 at Musselburgh has a decent enough favourite in Gaspard. It was 6/4 but now it's closer to evens. I actually think it should be shorter and I wouldn't put anybody doing my each-way bet from also betting the jolly.

I've put an immediate line through 1,3,8 and 9 which leaves us four other runners.

Hanalei Bay is up in trip to 7f after running 6f last time. It looked like it may not have stayed 7f at Thirsk two runs ago and now they have the blinkers on for the first time, which I hate. Horrible stable, line through it.

Mowhoob is a possible. Didn't stay 1m last time and now down to a better trip. Failed to win in 13 starts and less scope than the shorter price ones. Wouldn't be a terrible each-way at 12/1.

Favourite Treat is a first time out Johnstone. No market support but it cost a lot and the stable won the race last year. Probably won't win, not a great each-way bet.

That leaves us with Mishaal. Just the sort of thing I want for a job like this. Has place form over 7f, didn't really run well on the all-weather last time but on previous form it's very solid. Hard to see it being worse than 4th ever, most likely finish 2nd or 3rd with a good winning chence. Free going, be up there from the start and hopefully HB blows out early and maybe FT is not a big trier and we're left to fight with the favourite for a win.

£100 each-way at 11/2 with VC or Sportingbet. Would happily take 5/1 (I already have) and would actually take 9/2 without being too upset.

Thanks Neil.

Caught me at a bad time, & I've only just seen it. Oddly, the price remains available, & so.......

Gulp......

Welcome to Fred Mr Dogg. Not related to Snoop, I assume?

Long-time lurker? How did you hear about us?

Not being nosey, but we like a bit of intimacy here, get to know each other.

Steer cleer of anything Chompy puts up though, right?

Thank you Tikay.

funny you should mention mr Snoop, but alas no this Dogg runs alone.

yes long time lurker,purely a rec just tipping the toe so to speak.

i have heard of the lord chompy but i should be ok as reality tv is not my bag,mainly horses and footie,might gather my girdle and put something up one day

but you guys seem to know your stuff might just scoot along with you if thats ok.

That's cool, I hope you enjoy it.

Definitely worth reading some of the strategy Posts by the like of redarmi, Camel, Bad Beat, Bobby etc. (Apols to those I have momentarily forgotten).

For maths stuff, Doobs rules, for degen stuff, Dubai is the man.

You can find their strategy stuff easier if you click their profile, & then read their Posts from there, quicker that way than trawling through 3,000 pages here.

We seem to have some very wise heads in horses, football, NFL, Cricket, RU & RL especially. In some ways, NFL may be our best sport, so a good time to join.

Delighted to hear you don't like Novelty stuff. Class act, you.

Any questions, fire away.
