Saturday Punt - 5 March 2022

[Ken4155]

3 from Kelso, 3 from Donny and just the one from Newbury make up today's ITV7. First leg is the 1.50 at Newbury.

Watched about a half hour of ATR's Cheltenham Preview yesterday. In the studio were Matt chapman, Kevin Blake and Tony Ennis, while Jamie Codd joined in via Zoom (or whatever). It was probably meant to be an informative look at some of the bigger races at the festival but the fact that some trainers still have a few of their stable entered into 2 or 3 possible races, made it all somewhat futile viewing. At one stage, Blake was strong on a horse that Chapman insisted would not be running in that particular race.
I will revisit the preview (and others)when entries are made in concrete. We poor punters need all the help we can get!

Lovely morning up here, brilliant sunshine and the spring flowers are out. On handy as we are niping out for a spell, but will be back for the last 3 or 4 races in the ITV7. Also done the usual E/W Acca**** with an eye out for a bit of E/W value and a Win Trixie⁕⁕⁕ on the other 3. Good Luck if you are having a go.

Stuck a couple of quid on Universal Folly (Got up in closing strides) so i've decided to do the same with the remaining 2 in the L15.
Typically, as soon as i cut from £5 to £2, i get a winner:-(

Bleedin "opeless" here Ken. You at least started with a nice winner. I had more fun helping "She who must be obeyed" tidy up her Mam and Dads grave, and put some daffs out.

[Ken4155]

That was my only success, Togo. Things went rapidly downhill from there, culminating in a 10 minute, 2nd half collapse against Chelsea in which they scored 3 goals. We had held them 0-0 ad had looked the more likely winners up to then:-(
Only other thing i did right was to cash out my Either Half bet when i did - couldn't believe they were offering so much with so little time left :-))

[Togo]

Didn't like to mention the scoreline Ken. Plus the other result doesn't help.

[Ken4155]

While i would dearly love us to remain in the PL, Togo, if we go down, we may win a few games next season - and some of them may just finish 2-1:-)
