A slight change of tack today as regards my Lucky 15. I was going to do 4 x £2 wins, but 2 of my selections are double figure prices, so i've gone for a 20p each way L15 - besides being a fiver cheaper, it makes more sense given the size of the fields.

3.50 C; Visitant @ 16/1 - 4 places
4.10 Y; Evaluation @ 14/1 - 6 places
4.45 Y; Miss Attitude @ 8/1 - 5 places
20p e.w. L15, 2 x £1 e.w. accas. 4 placed (accas) = £205, 4 winners = £45,471.
A couple of e.w. singles on Vintage Clarets (1.50, @ 22/1 - 7 places)) and Yaroogh (2.25, @ 25/1 ).
ITV7; above qualifiers, plus; Ruling Court, Los Angeles, Flowstate and City Of Troy. £1 e.w. acca (forgot to omit the odds-on jolly)
Best of luck, all
Done the ITV7 but after covering the selections with the just in case bet I have stayed at York to have a flutter. Strictly minumum stakes E/W 6.5,4 timers and Trebles. Off out shortly so will have to watch later on catch up if I have any luck. Had a little punt on Sunday at Pontefract as part of the ITV7 and had 3 winners with 4 placed. Had just shy of £110 back. Tidy. Good Luck.

Only just seen your post, Bazile. In answer to your question, like many an average punter, i have my good days and my bad days. Due to my low stakes, i can have 6 bad days and one good day which can often make up for the previous 6.
I wouldn't claim to be 'clued up', as you put it, as any info i glean can be readily found online. I concentrate on handicap races, preferably with double-figure entrants, and use statistics to draw up a shortlist. Then i either do or don't choose the right horse from the shortlist.
2 blank days at York will show you that the big festival meetings are not usually my forte as horses i will have been following in the months prior, will meet in battle at these events.
However, i recouped my York losses, and more, with 3 winners at last night's Racing League meeting at Newcastle. 2 of the winners were in one bet with a placed and an also ran (which let me down for a decent placepot), and the other was in a Patent with 2 placed horses. All 3 winners had win single stakes on them.
I ended the day just over a ton in pocket to illustrate the point i made above.
To summarise, Baz, gambling is one of my hobbies and if i couldn't afford to carry on doing it, i'd spend more time on the others, particularly learning the guitar.
The motto of all gamblers should be; Only stake what you can EASILY afford to lose.
Alongside the usual 5 from the Knavesmire, the ITV7 includes one race each from HQ and Ffos Las.
Another blank yesterday but, as you can see from my reply to Bazile, i made up for it last night. I had a look at Saffie's rides and (rightly) decided it wouldn't be her night, though i think in another few strides and she would probably have beaten my 6/1 winner in the 8.15. She just about still leads the jockey table with the final meeting of the Racing League to come - Southwell next Thursday.
Not at all enamoured by the meetings at HQ and Ffos Las - so little choice for us Lucky 15 punters.

Once again York provides 5 of the ITV 7 races with Goodwood making up the numbers.
A tad lucky/unlucky last night; 3 out of 4 in my L15 (Silent Flame, La Yakel and Moonstone Boy) with an also ran (fav Warrendale Wagyu 4th in what ended up as a 7 runner h'cap) letting the bet down. Received £62, so once again, a blank at York followed by a half decent return from the evening meets.
Wish that would happen everyday😊

Would normally have omitted the odds-on jolly from the acca, but with just 4 runners in the 2.40 Good, i have omitted Sonny Liston.
Andaleep (5.20York) has been performing well in thew Racing League, finishing a close 2nd on both it's last runs. Done an e.w. punt on it.
Also done a little R Robin and e.w. Treble at Cartmel on Allbetsoff, Tommie Beau and Dr Sanderson for a poss £356.
Best of luck, all.
Off out shortly, will brave the BH traffic and get a walk in. ITV7 done and a couple of punts. ****E/W Acca, Trebles & Doubles. ###Win Trixie. Odds on left out of all bets. Kihavah in the Sweepstake. Good Luck
