Wednesday 24th July 2013

A really nice winner last night, and positive too that we had our biggest stake for a while on - I can't remember the last time we outlayed 8pts but it wasn't recently. It was a nice reward after a quiet week and it shows our patient approach generally comes out tops in the end.

One for this afternoon, possible evening bets, details of which at 5.30pm.

2pts Each-way Double: 2.10 Lingfield Limegrove @ 2/1, 3.00 Catterick Crowdmania @ 6/5 (Bet 365, VC Bet, Paddy Power, Ladbrokes, William Hill, all guaranteed)

Your bookmaker won't like you for this bet but it looks the best opportunity to net some cash this afternoon. Both look long odds on to run a place at least, which nets a small profit, but with the above bookmakers paying guaranteed odds and both having a good chance of winning, the odds are in our favour. Limegrove is well weighted here and I don't fancy the favourite to give her 9lb. She is a course winner and front runner, and my feeling is she might be able to take advantage of the recent pace bias towards front runners at Lingfield. She is best in at the weights and reunited with the only jockey to win on her thus far. I'm not sure about the attitude of the favourite and he is taken on although he may improve for the surface. Crowdmania needs little explaining, he is well drawn to make all here under the master of turning tracks Franny Norton. He has the best form in the book in my view and should take the beating. An each-way double looks the call.


Profit & loss: day:-4.00 / month: -13.66 / year: +104.55
