The Totopoly Kid I have come to punting very late in life - in retirement, in fact. But I was not new to racing when I did, for as a boy my favourite board-game was Totopoly and, in Australia at the time, I was taken a few times to magical Randwick, the Sydney racetrack.

For my Glossary on the Philosophy see the Sep 2 entry

Row 1 - No qualifier


Row 2
230 Newc. LOVE DUBAI F/c 1/2 Min value odds according to my 'odds configuration' stat +20% = 1.39 New odds stat stakes enhancer x 7.00 Old stat stakes enhancer x 1.40
250 Warw. THABAAT F/c 4/7 Min val odds 1.27 New odds stat stakes enhancer x 1.08 Old stat stakes enhancer x 1.40
I was tempted to go with major Supplementary bets on these but decided against
Bets: Basic, 2-Row Treble (normally with Row 1 but today a Win Double as there is no 3rd qualifier), Place Only, the 3 Combos
Added: Ad hoc Mop Up on LOVE DUBAI; Supplementary Short-List Combo on the above + ALAMBIC - see below


Row 3
250 Warw. THABAAT - see above
350 Warw. ALAMBIC F/c 13/8 Min val odds 2.64 New odds stat stakes enhancement x 1.20 Old stat stakes reducer x 0.79
Bets: Place Only, the 3 Combos


Naps I
LOVE DUBAI - see above
Bets: Basic (Double stake), Double (no 2nd qualifier so an enhancement of the Basic bet), 2-Row Double (with Row 1 normally but today a further enhancement of the Basic bet), Total Combo


Naps II
ALAMBIC - 350 Warw. F/c 13/8 Min val odds 2.64 New odds stat stakes enhancement x 1.20 Old stat stakes reducer x 0.79
Bet: Total Combo


Place Only I - on Rows 2 & 3
Bet: Basic, Xtra Combo


Place Only II
Bath: CORDELIA
Bets: Basic


Fancies (maybe)
Bath: CORDELIA
Warw: SECRET LIAISON - FAIRDONNA
Bets: Basic (Place Only)


My Lay bets - None contemplated


Tips
Late result from yesterday: ALI OLAH Elli(USA)/WON
Word to hand on Bath: IZADORE; Warw: HAZZARD COUNTY - LADY LAFFITE (not necessarily in that order) but I shall not be backing any of them - probably to my eventual regret. Their line-ups look a shade too competitive at the fancied end to me.


PROSPECTS

My stats are good for the win as regards Love Dubai and Thabaat, less so on Alambic but I have not gone the whole hog on the numbers. It will hurt if the day goes badly but it will not be a disaster.

Bets: Place Only, the 3 Combos     BASIC PLAN +73

 

Naps I

STRIVING STORM – see above/Won

Bets: Basic, Total Combo     BASIC PLAN +42

My Lay bets – None contemplated


Tips

Yesterday’s late result: COPING WITH DAVID (USA)/LOST

958 Elli(USA): ARMY BLUE F/c 9/2/LOST     [OVERALL EVEN (-0.33)]

DIAMOND JOSH 730 Wolv. But no bet, I think/LOST – no bet

READY FOR SPRING 240 Kemp. Springer today, but no bet/LOST – no bet

The Lay tip to hand is REVERENCE 215 Hayd. There is too much support for it to win for my taste at present. No bet/HRS WON – no bet

Another Lay tip I have to hand is for ST ANDREWS 245 Hayd. No bet. Likes heavy ground too much for me [Wrong decision]/HRS LOST

The major Win tip is AMADEUS WOLF F/c 7/2/3RD

Bet: Small win, balance Place Only to 5% of bank

Disappointing Tote gain this time - less than 10% of that from Betfair     [OVERALL +3]


PROSPECTS

I hope the weather does not ruin the chances of my multiples. Other than those, which are to bigger stakes than usual, there is the tip AMADEUS WOLF/
3rd which I hope will at least finish in the frame

Today’s gain is the classic Basic Plan result except insofar as a couple of non runners were included in the multiples (Bet365 treats these as having won @ zero return.)

OVERALL +153 (including BASIC PLAN +137)

Bet: Tiny win
