Big Mike’s Tuesday Betting Advice & Horse Racing Each Way Double

Big Mikes Tuesday Column

(Just in from a Sunderland member) – `You can get a reasonable 3 Bedroomed House in the Newcastle area for £36,000. Is Carroll really worth 1000 houses?` Here we go. Thought Id pass it on to the many Toon members on here. Personally from a club nearly bankrupt a couple of years ago the deal is a good one but I understand the emotions of the fans – but bills have to be paid and Ashley no doubt wants some moolah. Lets be fair – its a heck of a price though.

Whelan on the other hand must be mad. Turning down £12 million. For that he could buy every Blue Square Premiership player and probably every club as well.

Big Mike’s Saturday Betting Advice & Each Way Double

Saturday, January 15th, 2011

Attractive Racing today with some top class stuff. I am opposing Kauto ew with one of my favourite horses plus a small Hughie on another. I think we would have had a big pay out but for the fall of Aikman at Musselburgh but again my `preaching` of low mines came off with stake recovery plus for many on the Forum as this one was laid to 1.11. Its a cheap, easy option so do include it on all your bets – not just mine. Incidentally a sharp reminder last night for gambling yards on the Flat – especially favourites – `JUST` finishing out of the placings in 4th.

Big Mike’s Friday Betting Advice & Each Way Double

Friday, December 10th, 2010

Brown envelopes? Is this a myth or fact? Whatever it is – they exist and to put things in a monetary example yesterday over at my paid for service we had 4 in a Yankee which gave a 1p profit whereas if 8 had run in the 1.45 the profit would have been £35. So what happens to the £34.99? Two guesses. I will bleat no more but we may consider going down the `Bottler` route. Last year – due to the spate of brown envelopes and Bookies running for cover I played the bets only via Betfair in order to receive the vital 3 spots. There may be days ahead when I will do so.

A nice double yesterday on the blog (I thought prices were generous for once) and not a winner in sight – Strategic Betting in action!

Big Mike’s Thursday Betting Advice & Each Way Double Bet

Thursday, December 9th, 2010

A few hardy Trainers keeping the whole Racing Industry going currently. People like David Evans, Mark Brisbourne etc really put the hours in so that at least there is something on the Betting Menu.

Yesterday I used for the first time for a long time Fergal Sweeney. You may remember (those who have been with for many years) the reasons why I bypassed his mounts. In short he used to ride for `our` horse when with Michael Blanshard and pre race there were very odd movements on the Betting Exchanges and the mount finished an unexpected 4th. Safe to say we never used him again. Yesterday he rode the `Banker` in the Trixie and………………….by a neck finished fourth and his ride is there for all to see on bet365.com using the `Extra` button to view. My fault for using him really and for that I apologise but even so those of you sensibly using the `mines` will have obtained stake retrieval on the bet.

Big Mike’s Thursday Betting Advice & Each Way Double Brewed by Tetley

Thursday, December 2nd, 2010

Good morning all……just the one meeting now having lost Leafy to the weather. Before any of us make any sarcastic statements about “all weather” tracks, I think it’s fair to say that 8 inches of snow really does make racing impossible, so I have no quibbles about it being abandoned. At the moment it’s difficult to see when racing will resume as normal, and we should all tread very carefully when it does, as some trainers have far better facilities than others.
