Festive Punt26/12/2017

[Togo]

Morning punters, hope you are all recovered and clear headed this morning. A big day in the NH calendar and a lot of sorting out those winners to do. Taken a bit of a scatter gun approach and done horses that I know will be trying and staying. The King George was a hard choice. I plumped, in the end, for Bristol De Mai based mainly on my Grandad's old adage that "a grey will stay". I have however had to put Thistlecrack into the mix as I suspect that if he is recovered properly he may just be back to his best. Good luck if you have a flutter. Could do with at least a repeat of Saturday's effort.

Touch Kick @15/2 1.20 Kempton
Persian Delight @4/1 .30 Kempton
Kimberella @9/2 2.50 Wolverhampton
Bristol De Mai @9/2 3.05 Kempton

£1.00 E/W Acca. 4 X 30p Trebles. 6 X 30p Doubles. Total Stake £5.00

I have then retained the picks and added Thistlecrack into the 3.05, and done.

2 X 50p E/W Accas. 9 x 20p Doubles. 7 X 20p Trebles. Total Stake £5.20.

Morning Togo.
Had to go for a lie down after I looked at the Saturday results you and Ken picked. Almost, almost.......
Still a nice little return for you.

Good Luck today

Correction...... Persian Delight runs in the 1.30 Wincanton.

Morning Capito......I had to go for a little lie down after the first two.
Hope you are well and having a happy Christmas. Could do with a bit more of the same today. :))

There is far too much racing for my liking on a Boxing Day (79 races today!!) and the only one which really interests me is the KG at Kempton. Being a big Nicky Henderson fan, i long-since nailed my colours to the mast of his Might Bite and have had a few bets, at various odds, ante-post. I will neither win nor lose a fortune on him.

I have concentrated on the football on offer today and, among my bets, i have done a correct score patent;

WBA v Everton 1-1 @ 11/2
Bristol City 2-1 @ 15/2
Cardiff 3-1 @ 16/1

3 x £5 singles, £2 patent and a £1 treble = £30 stake

Good luck with the remainder of your bet, Togo.

As i said, i didn't win a fortune on Might Bite but i did recoup a large percentage of my entire festive expenditure, including presents, cards and food. And my lot are leading the mighty Man Utd 2-0 at half time. All things considered, not a bad day so far:-))

Ha! That last minute United equaliser was a real bitter-sweet moment for me. I usually back the Clarets to win 2-1 but not when we play the top 5 or 6 sides away from home. Then i go for BTTS and the draw, which today was priced @ 8/1. And i must admit that, despite ditching my usual 2-1 bet, i was urging the ref to blow the final whistle while we were still 2-1 to the good. The 3 points are more valued than any profit made, believe it or not! So, while we lost out on 2 points and the distinction of having beaten the mighty Reds, my bank account was swelled by a decent amount.
