White rabbits, it’s February

February 1, 2010

 Any white rabbits scurrying around the hedgerows in the fields down the end of our lane this morning, will surely have been wishing for an extra fur coat…. a thick frost there was, and absolutely brass-monkeys-cold it was! February is upon us and we’re still suffering the cold snap. This afternoon’s cards at both Ludlow [...]

Betting systems and weather systems, is there a link?

January 28, 2010

The British weather is a constant inspiration for conversation, fellow TIPs, but of late the topic of the weather has been elevated to headline news status. Britain has been shivering since the week before Christmas, and the last of the snow finally disappeared from British racecourses only little more than a week ago. We’ve been [...]

Betting Against Horses For Profit (after 27 days)

January 26, 2010

I started following this laying system Betting Against Horses For Profit by Henry McAnenly at the beginning of December, and I have almost reached the end of this review. Since my last update there have been four days with qualifying bets, resulting in six winning bets for us, and two that lost money. In all, the cumulative profit increased by [...]

Hot Horses selective backing system (update #3)

January 26, 2010

Yet again, there have been no further qualifying selections for this system since last week. It has not been the most exciting of reviews so far, granted, with just one bet so far this month. But to be fair, the system rules require non-extremes of going underfoot on the turf, and what little turf racing we [...]

Girl power to take this year’s Cheltenham bumper?

January 25, 2010

The beginning of yet another week, Dear Reader, and today I’m going to quickly review the weekend racing action, take a look forward at what I have planned for SkyBlueKangaroo this week, and also give you a pointer towards a race at the Cheltenham Festival.
The Victor Chandler Chase was my feature race of the weekend, [...]

Could it be Magic?

January 22, 2010

You’ll like this… not a lot… but you’ll like it. It’s my usual end-of-the-week post, and today I’m going to try to conjure up a winner for the weekend, see if my trends analysis can’t pull a rabbit out of the hat, and finish off with an appropriate retro track. Can you see what I’m doing here?
The Victor Chandler Chase [...]

The typical professional gambler is a schizophrenic

January 20, 2010

It is my opinion, Dear Reader, that if ever the successful pro-punter found himself reclined on the couch in the consulting room of his local psychiatrist, he would invariably be classed a clinical schizophrenic. Brain surgeon, and psychopath axe-murderer!
The mild-mannered brain surgeon will spend hours painstakingly dissecting the form book with his scalpel. His approach is [...]

Betting Against Horses For Profit (after 23 days)

January 19, 2010

I started following this laying system Betting Against Horses For Profit by Henry McAnenly at the beginning of December. There has been three days with qualifying bets since my last update, and a single selection on each of those three days. The results…. two successful bets, and one loser, with a slight drop in profits overall for the week.
We have [...]

Fingers crossed

January 18, 2010

Fingers crossed we have seen the last of the snow. Jump racing made a welcome return over the weekend, and those horses with form in testing conditions relished the heavy going as the frost turned to mud. My pick for the Lanzarote Hurdle Aachen held a prominent position until three flights out when he weakened [...]
