Wednesday Bets

Well, managed to recoup another 30 thanks to the narrow win of Daraiym so only another 30 to recoup to get back on track for the 50k challenge and get the balance up to 1166. I am not happy with how my shortlisted selections are performing though and feel that I am forcing myself to come up with bets on days when the racing is poor. However, I’ll continue with it for now and try not to pick too many ‘shorties’ as I think that is where I am going wrong. For Wednesday here are the ones I will rely on. Both Marco Botti (Fiulin) and John Gosden (Green Beret) are in-form at the moment and I would expect these two to start shorter than their current respective quotes of 3.45 and 2.26 on Betfair as at 23:30. Jim Boyle is another trainer in form and his SPINNING JOY drops in class and could be an interesting each-way at a price in the 7:20 at Kempton while his WOTASHIRTFULL is also worth a look in the 4:50 at Brighton. I can see CAPE COLONY starting a lot shorter in the 7:50 and that too could be worth an each-way bet.  He ran well against Wine ‘N Dine in December and was messed about last time at Wolves. He has been tipped up by ‘King of the Sand’ as a ‘next best’ bet of the week in the RFO.

The fav lays did ok on Tuesday, just over a 16pt return and I am going to start increasing the lay stakes x 3 on these to produce better returns as I feel it’s pretty much a foolproof method from what I have seen so far.

I’ve given up on Boylesports as they don’t offer early odds so no point having best odds guaranteed. Also their site crashed numerous times during Aintree so as well as Bet365, Paddy Power, Stan James and William Hill I have not added Canbet to my portfolio. They not only offer best-odds guaranteed on all racing but also have SP+ to guarantee you get better than SP and also offer 25% cashback on losing monthly balances which is a very good deal although hopefully one I will not need.
