Saturday Punt 09/02/2019

[Togo]

Oh dear the racing in UK is off after the equine Flu outbreak, but well done the BHA for taking decisive action in an attempt to contain it. Blame myself for hoping that after this weekend I could boast that all my horses flew home. Instead the are all at home with the Flu. I have had a little look at the Irish racing and the meet at Naas. Some massive prices on offer for the chancer, but I have with a little help from the Sporting Life website tried to find something with a decent chance. Strange picking when I have no known form or individual knowledge of a horse to go on.
Will be having a little punt on the England/France game tomorrow , but for today here goes.

Drop The Anchor @8/1 1.10
Fauguernon @5/1 1.40
Roaring Bull @13/2 3.10
Empire Burleque @8/1 3.40*

£1.00 E/W Acca. 5 X 15p E/W Doubles. 4 X 15p E/W Trebles. £5.00 Total Stake.

Afternoon, Togo, and good luck as per. What i know about the racing scene in Ireland could be written on the back of a stamp in the small space left when i have written all i know about brain surgery. However, as my lot don't kick off until 5.30, i have had 3 each way bets on horses who share same names as 3 of my grandkids - yeah, i know, easiest way to lose money. But i don't expect any sort of return (so what's new, i hear people ask) so i can't be disappointed in that respect when all 3 trail in last :-)

£1 e.w. Daisy's Hollow @ 150/1 - 1.10
£1 e.w. No Way Jack @ 100/1 - 1.40
£1 e.w. William Of Wykeham @ 14/1 - 3.40

The lack of racing on these shores leaves me with a few quid more to play with on the football, so, apart from the usual 2-1 win on my lads @ 16/1, i'll be having a dabble at various bets on the round ball game. I'll leave gambling on the oval ball game to experts such as yourself :-)

G,day Ken. My mob are on live later.....better take the blood pressure tablets. I will perhaps do May and Ashton tomorrow as first try scorers and the same score spread as last week in a first try/England winning score, scorecast. You have to be doing a little e/w combi with those runners Ken I would have thought.

[Togo]

Strewth Ken. 3 places would pay 4,504/1.....tempted to do it myself. :))

[Ken4155]

No e.w. combi, Togo. I'd be surprised if any get placed, though the first one did beat 7 others!!
Already a few quid up with Pogba netting first. Hope he gets a couple more then the odds will triple :-)

[Togo]

The last one is mentioned in dispatches, as having potential Ken, by a couple of "tipsters".

[Ken4155]

Pogba gets his 2nd, odds doubled :-)

[Ken4155]

Subbed him on 74 mins :-( Re-invested a fiver of winnings on Jadon Sancho (Dortmund) FGS @ 6/1.

[Ken4155]

Who, with 32 mins on the clock, opens the scoring :-) :-) :-)

[Togo]

Haha keep it up Ken.

[Ken4155]

Hoping to do just that with an anytime scorer treble/trixie in 3 of today's half five kick offs, Togo.

Ashley Barnes (The Clarets)
JayRod (Baggies - sorry)
J De-Tomas (Rayo Vallecano)

All 3 would return just over £60 for my fiver - fingers, toes and eyes crossed.
