31oct14 Spooky!

Just waiting for Justin who's runs in the last of the day so without him we have 8 winners and a big one!!

Mark Quinn pops in a 20-1 winner to leap up to 4th spot, other winners were me, Barry Pemble & Stuart Bentham all at the princely price of 30-100!! Jed Parramore 8-11, Dave Barker 9-2 to go 3rd, Andy Pitter 3-1 and Annabelle Carpenter 5-6 that brought a double up for them both.

30oct14 ten up

10 winners today three usual suspects on the 2-7 winner namely Vince Paige, Stuart Bentham & Barry Pemble.  Four managed to pick the 11-4 winner Royale Knight they were Gary Pascoe, Pat Quinn Snr, Andy Pitter & Danny Beaman, two picked a 5-4 winner they were Annabelle Carpenter and Jed Parramore and finally there was the best of the day for Terry Matthews at 8-1 only his 2nd winner so still well adrift but a good start.

29oct14 slow

Yesterday's late results now updated and just 4 winners in total, Richard Pascoe was top with his 5-1 winner others were Gary Pascoe & Pat Quinn Snr both 5-4, Jon Curtis 4-1

28oct14 'arry gets off the mark

8 winners today nothing as meaningful as yesterday though.

Best of the day was recorded by Jon Curtis at 5-1 that took him back to the leader board in 7th, Carl Dean brought up a double with a 7-4 winner, Dave Kingsbury & George Casserly both scored with 2-1 winners, Jason McConkey & Michael Brook both had 11-4 and Stuart Bentham & Martin Long both at 10-11 were the final two winners.

27oct14 best day

Well joint best day of the comp 13 winners that included best of the day 12-1 for Paul Stobbart, 13-2 for Dave Barker & Neil Harrison, the rest were all pretty small odds.

26oct14 Massive winner

Roger Dore soared up to 2nd place from 29th after picking a 33-1 winner - nice one

There were 8 other winners so as the excel is just about to be sent out, easiest to let you look it up for yourselves!!

25oct14 big winner

George Casserly topped the poll today with a nice 14-1 winner to move onto the leader board in 11th.  There were 4 other winners Stuart Bentham & Annabelle Carpenter both 13-8 Neil Harrison 7-2 to move him to 10th and finally our leader brought up a 4 timer with a nice 4-7 10 point winner.

24oct14 Chris is back

Chris Pascoe goes back top thanks to his father's horse winning yesterday but canny dad left his own winner alone and picked up the best of the day in the last at Wolverhampton last night and the 8-1 winner lifted him 6 places into 6th.  There were some other winners as well :-)

22oct14 new leader

Tim Catlin back after a few days of no bets bangs a very nice 15-2 winner in to swap places with Chris Pascoe in first & 2nd.  There were 5 other winners 3 had the 4-9 winner Chris Pascoe, Barry Pemble & Justin Sercombe, Mark Quinn at 11-8 & Annabelle at evens were the others

21oct14 Just Two

On what seemed like a reasonable day it turn out to be very tough 7 guys went down on the same 10-11 favourite at Exeter that got turned over which pretty much left both leader boards unchanged.  The two winners were George Casserly the best of the day 3-1 and Dave Kingsbury 11-4.

20oct14 Go Baggies

7 winners today 4 at the same 5-2 price they were Justin Sercombe, Maurice Edgington, Kevin wood, & Jason McConkey, best of the day prize was captured by Gary Pascoe at 7-1 sufficient to bring him back onto the leader board in 10th, and the final two were Jed Parramore 2-5 & Annabelle Carpenter 7-2.

So almost completely static in the plate as the top two sat out

19oct14 The beat goes on

6 winners and we have some very impressive sequences being set by the 'plate boys' 6 winners today and we saw Barry Pemble pick up an 2-11 winner to bring up an 8 timer and 12 from the last 13, Stuart Bentham the same 2-11 winner to bring up a 9 timer, Vince Paige 10 points & 15-8 for his 5 timer and Justin Sercombe also 15-8 for 4 from 6 and arrives in 4th on the plate leader board.   The other two winners were Michael Brook 100-30, and to get off the mark with the best of the day was Kevin Dighton 7-2!

18oct14 Nice day at a warm Cheltenham

8 winners today the 4 usual suspects all picked the 10 point even money winner at Cork they were Vince Paige, Justin Sercombe, Stuart Bentham & Barry Pemble.  The real winners were Jimmy McGarrity & Mark Sharman both nice 6-1 winners, Pat Quinn 5-1, and Annette Berg 15-8.  So on the busiest day so far where all but 4 had a bet honours go to Mark Sharman who rose to 3=.

For info evidence of a flat sport bias was confirmed as the naps were 20 at Ascot & 17 at Cheltenham!

17oct14 NH has started!

And with a bang with 3 people all napping the 10-1 winner that was Dave Barker to go 2nd, Mark Quinn to go 7th & Kevin wood who really needed it! 6 other winners Stuart Bentham evens for a 7 timer, Vince Paige and Barry Pemble kept pace with each other with 4-9 winners Andy Pitter 7-2, Danny Beaman 6-4 & the leader also 6-4 to keep up the pressure on the whole field.

160ct14 loads of winners

13 to be precise from 43 bets, so just concentrating on the top ones, best of the day was John Heneghan 10-1 to go joint 2nd with Tim Catlin who along with Pat Quinn Snr both grabbed a 7-1 winner.  The only other worthy of mention was Mark Quinn 9-1 to put him back mid table.

Barry Pemble kept up his record & brought up a 5 timer and Stuart Bentham a 6 timer

15oct14 double day

One bet to go Martin Long late tonight, so tables over are before that, basically loads of winners Tuesday 11, and today 9 so far. Picking out some highlights Stuart Bentham picked a double to bring up a 5 timer, Gareth Chapman back after a string of forced losers also picked two winners, 11-10 & 3-1.  Other doubles were recorded by Dave Kingsbury, Danny Beaman & Barry Pemble who now has recorded 8 from his nine last bets.

Best odds were Tuesday 6-1 Danny Beaman, 15-2 Mark Quinn & Wednesday 4-1 Danny Beaman again! But best of all was Pete Long who got off the mark with a 8-1 winner

Tuesday Delayed

Sorry everyone left my laptop at my final meeting yesterday and had to go back and get it :-(

Will do a double day tonight - I hope

13oct14 leader wins big

Just 6 winners today but joint best at 8-1, was Chris Pascoe and Kevin Roberts which saw Kevin move 3rd & 6th and Chris extend his lead and go 2nd that's in the main and plate respectively.  The other four were Stuart Bentham Rod Brown, Robert Baker & Justin Sercombe  

12oct14 Go Lewis & England

Just 5 winners today from 42 bets so the tough times continue.  Best of the day was Wayne Morton with a nice 6-1 winner, followed closely by Neil Harrison and Dave Kingsbury at 9-2 who spotted that Aiyana was the only horse in the jump jockeys flat race who was ridden by a flat jockey and that must have been a big help on a tough track like Goodwood.  The final two were Barry Pemble 6-4 who finished off a pretty good week for him getting 6 from 7 and scoring 40 points, & Chris Pascoe 1-2 a nice consolidating bet for the leader.  

11oct14 last bet of the day shoots in

Spenser Mills the last nap of the day picks a 10-1 winner to move up to 6th on what up to that point had been a pretty ordinary day with only 6 winners from 43 bets.  The other 5 were Barry Pemble, Gary Pascoe & Stuart Bentham all 7-4, with Ken Jones & Pat Quinn Snr both 2-1.

A few points scraped up among the leaders of the plate Barry closed the gap by another few points with his 5 points.

10oct14 Just 4

Very tough day if you use our performance as a guide only 4 from 43 they were best of the day John Heneghan 7-1 to move 5th, Andy Stevens rose back onto the leader board in 11th with a 4-1 winner.  Richard Pascoe 100-30 & Stuart Bentham 8-15 were the only other 2.

What happened at York my nap Bogart Jockey somehow allowed the horse to get its head in the stall next door and when they let them go horse couldn't move finally got head out horse shot off and she fell off meanwhile field is at the 2 pole! just about sums up my performance in the comp

09oct14 Impressive day

Joint best of the day for two guys who also got off the mark and in some style with 14-1 winners and who were they Roger Dore & David Sharman who both move from joint nearly last to 19th=.  Mark Sharman returned to 2nd place with an 8-1 winner just 26p off the lead.  Other winners were Barry Pemble & Justin Sercombe both now in the grove for the plate 5 point 1-3 winners, Neil Harrison 7-2 to move 21st, Ken Jones 11-4, & Gary Pascoe 11-10.

Barry moves above me into 5th in the plate and sits 49 points behind the leader with 7 bets in hand

08oct14 the last two days

In summary:
Tuesday 31 bets 10 winners - best Jed Parramore & Gary Pascoe 3-1
Wednesday 38 bets 6 winners - best Jimmy McGarrity 13-2

Overall highlights were Vince Paige, Barry Pemble & Jed Parramore all had 2 from 2 with Vince's bringing up a 5 timer 4 of them 10 pointers, hence his massive lead in the Plate, but notice the defending champ Barry Pemble first appearance in the top 6.

07oct14 delayed update

Sorry away in London yesterday it will be a double update tonight

06oct14 big winner

But very little else Tim Catlin popped up with a 20-1 winner today to move 2nd and the only others were Chris Pascoe 4-5 and Barry Pemble 5-1.

Vince sat out in the plate so Martin's loser made things better anyway

05oct14 Fantastic Treve

What a horse after all the problem this year.  But meanwhile back at Kelso and Huntingdon we managed 7 winners on a slightly slow day.  Chris Pascoe the leader is obviously in consolidation mode now as he picked a 2-11 winner! Jason McConkey & Rod Brown scored with 2-1 winners, Jed Parramore & Robert Baker both 8-13, Vince Paige 5-6, so that leaves Spenser Mills as best of the day with a nice 7-1 winner to sit 13th, one off the leader board, on +3.53.

Vince moved to a full 20 points clear in the plate and Gareth Chapman on the leader board is making it tough for himself to stay there as he joined Lee Constable as being dormy today.  

04oct14 Quality days racing

And we managed 9 winners between us, best of the day was Tim Catlin 13-2 others were Annette Berg & Dave Kingsbury both 7-4, 4 selected the racing post trophy winner 10 points and 6-5 they were Vince Paige, Chris Pascoe, Justin Sercombe & Paul Stobbart, Dave Barker moved up a spot or two with a 7-2 winner.  Kevin Roberts 5-2 was the final winner to move 4th.

With all those 10 point winners 3 new appearances on the leader board in the plate and Vince moved further clear.

03oct14 usual Friday night delay!

All ready to upload the results after the afternoons racing and we have two people with late evening runners - clearly not going to ponce around doing the blog on a Friday night and miss important drinking time so expect morning updates when people do that :-)

Anyway a very tough day only 3 winners (but we did get 11 seconds) from a total of 39 selections.  Joint best of the day was Vince Paige with a sparkling, if lucky, 10 point 9-2 winner and Andy Stevens also 9-2 the only other winner was Jason McConkey 13-8.

So with 10 points for Vince and Martin's UR at Wolverhampton on the flat! Vince storms clear at the top.

02oct14 Well Done Gary

Gary Pascoe's horse scored a resounding win today in the handicap chase at Warwick - Gary any chance you could get that entered for a race at Towcester when we are all there?  Anyway 3 people napped it Chris Pascoe, Spenser Mills & Michael Brook and Gary didn't but he still had a winner at 2-1.  There were 5 other winners all at pretty short prices they were, Annette Berg & Dave Kingsbury both at 13-8, Annabelle Carpenter 3-1, Jed Parramore 1-4, & Stuart Bentham 4-6.

01oct14 Nice One Dave

Joint best of the day today 5-1 for Chris Pascoe to go 3rd and Gareth Chapman to go 10th and that's 3 for 4 for Gareth his only problem is his lack of bets he is almost dormy already with only 2 spare left.  These two were closely followed by me with a rare 4-1 winner and Jason McConkey 11-4, in addition there were 5 others all short priced, Andy Stevens and George Casserly 4-6, ken Jones, Robert Baker, & Wayne Morton all 4-9.

In the plate the leaders both missed out except for the odd single point for Martin and I moved 3rd in a very tight scrap for the minor places.
