Tips for Tikay

[horseplayer]

Top two weights first and second in the opening telly race at Doncaster. Heavy stuff out there, too. Any decent mudlarks out there?

Yes, & it was good to see Levitate rise to the occasion.

v good, I love a soupcon of humour in the mornings.

Yup, he seemed to almost float across the ground.

My NFL Column this week talks about the Bengals. We are well placed, but there are clouds on the horizon due to injuries

"Cincinnati Bengals at Baltimore Ravens

Every team is dealing with injuries at this point in the season, but the Bengals have been hit with huge injury problems.

All-Pro defensive tackle Geno Atkins went down with a season-ending ACL injury last week to become the fourth defensive starter (along with No. 1 corner Leon Hall, safety Taylor Mays and Defensive End Robert Geathers) to land on the Injured Reserve. Starting middle linebacker Rey Maualuga and Andy Dalton’s blind-side Andrew Whitworth missed last week’s game and will both probably be on the sidelines again this Sunday when the Bengals visit the Ravens.

That said, the Bengals are in a relatively comfortable place in the AFC North standings. They’re 6-3, and the rest of the division — Browns (4-5), Ravens (3-5) and Steelers (2-6) — is a mess. However, a loss on Sunday might open the door for Baltimore to sneak back into the race, especially with a second Bengals/Ravens game on the last game of the season.

The biggest thing working against that potential Ravens revival? They’re just not that good this season. Their biggest issue is the running game which  has resulted in Baltimore averaging a league-low 2.78 yards a carry this year However all the indications are that Ray Rice is finally healthy and ready to have a far more effective second half of the season. With Atkins missing, the stars are aligned for this to begin on Sunday

To see the Ravens priced as 2 point underdogs on the spread to a Bengals team so beat up is an opportunity. The Ravens need to win badly, they are at home and the spread offered reflects the risks"

Haven't had a bet yet but this is also one of the few I like this week.

I think this game may be a good opportunity to introduce Fred to the delights of NFL teasers.  This is a really great game to use in teasers.  Can anyone give me an idea which books Fred has access to offer teasers (if any)

You'll have to explain this to me, Stu. Use short words, please.

Garrulous sesquipedelianism ITT.

I like the word sesquipedelian. Literally means "a foot and a half long", so longer than it needs to be.

Any value in Jack Dempster? If it moves to 5's I am ploughing in. Looks a free roll to place given his form on soft/heavy ground the trainer/jockey combo also gives me added confidence in a competitive handicap.

I'm on Spinatrix and Highland Colori, so kind of hoping not! Mind you, some might say that makes yours more likely to win

Do you mean "Jack Dexter"?

Odd these days seeing a presenter not wearing a poppy.

Looks like everyone has plunged on, no chance of 5/1 now. Great spot though.

Thanks for the insight and info TK. I always like the way you break down things and willing to help people around you.

I will have a look and closely watch and follow the posts here and see if I can come up with any questions.

One quick question that can come to my mind is who chooses which bets are good and placed and which aren't? Is this only price based?

Also who is Fred?

Maybe I can help you with some insight of Greek football, although it can be dodgy sometimes.

[Ant040689]

Gentle reminder about 6/1 Bromley e/w. Only the second placed team in the league plays today in the league and if they lose the price may be affected. Not trying to hassle, you said it appeared value so only putting up a gentle reminder.

As it is 6/1 and a fifth odds is there for top 3 you only get a miniscule profit for second and third, but I suppose you can look at it like a safety net.

I noticed also that there is another locked thread in the section called Fred's bet.

What is it exactly? Does it only contain which bets are placed everyday?
