Saturday Punt - 29 June 2024

[Ken4155]

Just 2 meetings provide the races for today's ITV7; Newcastle (1st leg 2.04) and Newmarket.

Couldn't believe that Sky offered EVENS for Tiffany to place at Newcastle yesterday. Upwardly mobile, the horse had not been out of the first 2 in it's last half dozen races, including a couple of listed events. It was very clearly the form horse in the race, albeit to a slightly lower level.

I duly stuck my tenner on then sat back and watched it romp home in a Group 3. Then, as you do, i wondered aloud why i hadn't stuck my tenner on the nose @ 7/2.

We're never satisfied, us punters🙄

All at Newcastle;

2.04;  Montassib @ 11/2 - 4 places

2.35;   Haveyoumissedme @ 9/1 - 5 places

3.10;   Zoffee @ 11/1 - 7  places

3.40;  Zip @ 8/1 - 4 places

4 x £2 wins, 20p L15, 2 x £1 e.w. accas. 4 places = £80, 4 winners = £12,845.

ITV7; above 4 qualifiers plus, Tales Of The Heart, King Of Conquest and Noble Dynasty. £1 e.w. acca.

Also done an e.w. punt on Show No Fear @ 18/1 in the 2.35.

Best of luck, all

Because the other afternoon meetings don't particularly float my boat, i've gone back in and done the 3 Newmarket horses from the '7' in a Trixie/Treble for a poss £108.

Just having a look now before we go out. The Northumberland Plate formerly known as "The Pitmans Derby". Ran on Wednesdays until 1952 and turf until 2016. Still one of the richest 2m handicaps to be run anywhere in the World. Could do with the winner. Split the ITV7 into two again. ****E/W Acca, win doubles & trebles. ###E/W Trixie. Good Luck.

I've been 'on' Marbuzet for it's last few runs, Togo. Hope i don't pay for deserting it today - though i wish you luck, of course.

They were prepping it for this race Ken. Nearly £40k to the winner. Pays conections £4.5k for 4th place.

Haha, you know how much i'm a sucker for the 'mug's forecast' bets. Well, the Chester 3 o'clock race gave me Radio Googoo (big Queen fan) and Bosh (read all the Bosch books and watched all the series). 

So, being the 'mug' i am, i did them in a £1 e.w. R F/c. They've just gone past the post together but i think Googoo just hung on. 

And, as i was typing this, the result came through. Radio Googoo @ 9/2 beat Bosh @ 10/1. Forecast paid £49.34.

Happy days😄

Makes up for choosing the wrong Jardine horse in the 2.35 or for not putting my e.w. shout (Show No Fear) in my L15 bet.
