Cleeve Notebook Horses – w/c 29th January
Horse: Attention Please (8-y-0 bay gelding) Trainer: Rose Dobbin Notes: This handicap chaser fell two from home last time out at Musselburgh when attempting to make it three wins in a row. I think he would have gone on to win again so provided this fall hasn’t left a mark he could effectively be a…

Hi everyone, Well it was an inauspicious start to the betting weekend for us today. All the vibes were right for our only selection Protek Des Flos who was heavily backed all day, it was the only ride Barry Geraghty went up to Huntingdon for and the stable was in red hot form. But horses are…

Horse: Astaroland (8-Y-O Bay Gelding) Trainer: Jennie Candlish Notes: A fairly exposed handicapper to start with who I think could bounce back to the winners’ enclosure when returning to decent ground. Three starts ago this horse returned after 472 days off and it has been a case of slowly bringing him back to his best…

Hi everyone, a quiet week so far with just the one Class 2 or better race on Tuesday. As we said in the post on Monday night any one of the 3 could win and as the old adage “back the outsider of the 3” proved prophetic, with the 4/1 rag Got Away winning with…

Hi everyone, We were very close to a big winning day on Saturday. We had just the 3 selections resulting in an EW place at advised (BOG) 14/1 which meant we ended up 1 1/2 points down on the day. Playing at these kind of prices it only takes one winner to make a massive…

Hi everyone, nothing to report on since last Saturday’s profitable day. The only race we looked at this week was the Graduation Chase at Market Rasen on Wednesday, which didn’t qualify for a selection as there weren’t enough runners. As I said I have always liked the top rated Le Rocher who went on to…

Horse: Rathlin Rose (10-y-o Brown Gelding) Trainer: David Pipe Notes: I’m sticking with the Welsh National for both selections this week’s offering. Given that two 13-year-olds fought out the finish says the form may not amount to that much. However, they went a strong gallop and this race is always a genuine slog. Simply completing…

Hi everyone, we had another profitable day on Saturday… nothing spectacular, but slow and steady is the way to do it, and if we bag a couple of long price winners a month it all builds up to a tidy profit. We had 4 selections producing 3 placed e/w bets at nice prices giving us…

Hi everyone, nothing to report back on for this week so lets hope we can keep the momentum up and back a few more points profit this weekend. We have looked at 7 races in total and crunched the numbers and done the analysis and come up with 4 selections. For those of you who…

Hi everyone, Well it was another profitable day on Saturday, with a 4 point overall profit from the 4 races we covered. In the Welsh Grand National we had put up two selections a few weeks ago in the antepost market. Unfortunately Champers on Ice was a non runner so we lost a point there,…
