Monday, March 28th, 2011Big Mike’s Friday Horse Racing Betting Advice & Each Way Double
Friday, October 22nd, 2010Not an easy days racing today, where for me the stand out bet is over the sticks, and I for one will be pleased when the National Hunt season really springs into action. Talking of which, has anyone else noticed the very small fields for young chasers?? We don’t appear to have any up and coming “stars” over here, whereas in Ireland the seems be be a real depth in the chasing talent…….time will tell.
Once again yesterday the strategy for laying “mines” repaid in buckets, when the second selection in the Ali Baba was backed down to very low odds when finishing second (the 1st leg having won at 3/1), to return a nice place double, and recovering stakes. I know I keep banging on about this, and I know it’s not very exciting sometimes, but the satisfaction you get when seeing your bank slowly but surely getting bigger and bigger, more than makes up for that lack of adrenalin rush…….and you don’t have that dark cloud over you when your money is lost!!

Monday, October 4th, 2010Ryder Cup remains riveting viewing with some amazing swings in the Individual matches for traders. Could it be `Sir` Colin Montgomerie? Sports Personality of the Year? Should they of course hang on.
Yesterdays ‘Dunlop’ (each way double) and how I played it. I just want to ensure that we are all singing from the same Hymn Sheet. The first horse in the double won so we trousered a profit of £60. We also had a double `live`. I worked out the potential return on a winning double which was £340. Similarly on the place part should the horse finish in the frame – this amounted to £40. So there was ample room for me to place lay for stake retrieval pre start so I place laid £25 gross (liability £18). I then placed mines at 1.4 and 1.2 for a further £25 gross but these failed to match. On the win site I must admit to being over optimistic and laid just a fiver gross (Liability £17). Poor risk management from yours truly and no way to safeguard such a huge lump (£340). I point this out for two reasons. You MUST play the combination lays and mines on the place site to keep retaining stakes and secondly be more adventurous than I was on the win site next time! Just thought I would share with you how I cock up from time to time! Dunces Hat for me on Sunday.

Tuesday, September 7th, 2010Tuesday Thought’s
Just a quickie today – no this is not Wayne Rooney speaking its Big Mike.
Can only find 6 I like for my members daily betting column so far and two of those from one trainer – but in one I trust – however if there is a pre race drift – beware!
Talking of drifts – there was a big one yesterday on Apache Warrior which gave cause for concern and of course the horse finished 5th. I am entrusting George Moore (said Trainer) with another today in the hope it was a one off yesterday inspired by the money from Richard Fahey for his horse which duly won.
