All races are off from Rosehill and now at Randwick hence Canasta was scratched but it’s still actually running.

Righto then ... makes sense now

I'd already put Canasta into a 2/3 parlay but the Canasta legs were refunded.  I ended up cashing out the multis so will have to start all over again!

Sportsbet won’t allow me to cash out the multi, maybe cos it was just out two horses? Anyway, means it really becomes a $5ew bet ?

Laddies keep about 10% but I like my multi's to be on my terms so I'll take that small hit. 

Trouble is that Lunar has come into 2.40 for the place (was 3.20) ... so I'll find another along with Canasta to get the odds up.  An all-up place bet might salute

There's plenty of value in Melbourne & Morphettville though.  Waiting on Gator's Randwick tips but there's 3 or 4 shorties so the multi's up there might be the go

By the way, www.skyracing.com.au has all the big tipsters picks from about 9am tomorrow

Lunar didn’t quite get the job done. Canasta once again pipped over the last 50 meters. 
Away game came very late and stole the win.

Yeah I just missed on the F4 in the Away Game race ... lean day!  (but still way in front from last weekend!)

Bugger. I’ve had a small win over all, Zayydani saluted for me, 4 placing bonus bets I’m using some on a SGM in port v syd, got all three goal kickers in the first qtr, now need rampe 15, boak and Lloyd 25.

Best Bet Saturday - Flemington

Race 2 No.3 Seb Song (J Kah) 6.00/2.00

 

The double is paying 24-1 (with a boost)

Edited July 1, 2021 by Macca

[Gorgoroth 12,963]

I see J.Kah need three winners this week to get the most wins. I hope she can do it.

[Gorgoroth 12,963]

Got a couple of late tips. 
Sunshine Coast race 6 number 1 Tumbler Ridge each way

and

Murray Bridge Race 7. No 1,  Just Folk

It was at $9 when he got on it, said it was $6 and I just checked and it’s already into $4. I’m going to hope it drifts back out again.

[Gorgoroth 12,963]

Sunshine Coast abandoned due to weather.

[Gorgoroth 12,963]

Seb song looked good but Seiners Express hit turbo and got a length out and kept it there.

Nice one

I had it going in 2 doubles and missed on both!  Still, that's my strategy on these best bets

Get one up and it pays for itself for close on 6 months.  And the small outlay doesn't hit the pocket

Just missed the trifecta in the last by a nostril. But otherwise a small profit which I’ll always take.

Reckon I'll start using our 2 tips with 1 other to form a 2/3 parlay bet

I picked up another 3 doubles using the 2/3 parlay method in the UK (over the last 2 nights) to end up in front for the weekend.  All 3 of the other picks all ran 2nd so I could have been swimming in it!

What’s the parlay method?

[Macca 16,972]

3 races with 3 set picks in each race

You then take the 3 doubles within the 3 picks (A & B, A & C along with B & C) as well as the treble (A, B & C)

Any 2 get up and you get 1 x Double ... if all 3 salute then you win the Treble & 3 x Doubles

So 4 bets in all ... I usually split up $25 or $30 in the total outlay (often 8, 8, 7 & 7)

But I carefully pick out the 3 races, not just any old race.  So our best bets can be used in that fashion.  A 2nd chance if you like

If you outlay a total of $30 and if one of the doubles gets up at $8 @ $3 x $4 ($12) then you'll get back $96 (well in front!)

If all 3 salute it's happy days!

Seems slightly confusing, but I’ll try and figure it out ?

A better way to describe it is you use any of the 3 picks in any sort of multi ... but not as single win bets.  Thus, it gets called a 2/3 parlay

And there are a maximum of 4 multi combinations using the 3 picks

But I generally only use races where I don't want to have a win bet because the thing I like is too short in the market and my outlay is too big for a not big enough return

$3 or $4 chances as a general rule

Now down to one for the champion jockey (Jamie Kah) ... on a number of chances tomorrow so much so that I've taken out a one-out Jamie double!

Quietly confident too!  The best bit when doing the form is finding a horse that you like and then seeing that J Kah is on board.

Some of the best Jockeys ride well into their 40's but Jamie is still only a 25yo

In Melbourne it's Kah, Oliver & Williams whilst in Sydney it's McDonald,  Bowman, Berry & McEvoy.  Elite company

I’ll have to have a look, hadn’t checked as zip try and keep my punting to the weekend. 
She is a great jockey and yeah so young to be going so well. I remember Oliver was good when young too but this is next level.

[Gorgoroth 12,963]

Just had a look, she is on a lot of good chances early on.

No winners for Jamie today! 

Nevertheless, Saturday awaits where she sits on no fewer than 6 favourites.  Gotta be at least 1 winner there but perhaps 3 or 4

Dipped out on the Jamie double but managed to snag a place double at decent odds.  Back to Saturday's only though ... midweek racing is a raffle!
