On early today 'cos i'm out for a family get together later. Eldest grand-daughter is off to uni soon and we are giving her a bit of a send of with a meal and a few bevvies. However, if i get 'the taste' (and the chances of that are high as i used to be a bit of a p-artist back in the day) then, in the words of Captain Oates, 'i may be some time' :-) So i'm having to do all my usual Saturday stuff now; horses, football, lotteries, etc, etc.
2.55 Hay; Autumn War @ 7/1 - 5 places
3.10 Asc; Alfaadehl @ 5/1 - 4 places
3.15 Kem; Thunderclap @ 9/2 - 5 places
3.45 Asc; Top Secret @ 9/2 - 4 places
Win singles, 20p Lucky 15, £1 e.w. acca. 4 placed = £17, 4 winners = £2,001.
ITV 7; Scots Grace, Valley Forge, Hukum, Autumn War, Alfaadehl, Starman and Top Secret. Taken both Valley Forge and Starman out and done the remaining 5 in a £1 e.w. acca.
Today's stats are quite weak as regards the nags - strongest is Roger Varian winning the 3.10 on 3 prior occasions; '14, '18 & '19 - but a very strong stat did emerge on the football front. The last 6 occasions when Wimbledon have hosted Oxford, the final score has been 2-1 to one or the other, 4 times to the home side, 2 to the away team. True, this sequence will eventually come to an end (and that may well be today) but i probably said the same thing last season! Unlike the bookies (who have the away side as favs) i have gone with Wimbledon (because of their home advantage) who are 10/1 to win 2-1 with Bet365. Oxford are 17/2 and i will be having a saver on them - just haven't decided how much:-)
Good luck, all.
