Nice to get a winner for my new information and advisory service yesterday.  White Chocolate was advised at 11/8,  and backed into 6/5.  She was given a confident ride by Jamie Spencer,  the filly did not seem to mind the rain that fell, and changed the going. Good to get subscribers off to a winning start.

Epsom Derby:

I gave Delano Roosevelt as an each way (free) bet yesterday.  He ran a solid race to be just out of the frame. He is worth following, as he will have a good race in him this season. The favourite Saxon Warrior did not seem to handle the track  well, he id slightly stumble leaving the stalls.  Having won the 2000 Guineas so well, where he beat Masar and Roaring Lion.  I would not be surprised if something comes to light over the next day or so, for his lacklustre performance.

I was really pleased to see Masar win for Godolphin.  Charlie Appleby obviously looked delighted.  It was good to see him mention his team at home, and jockey Brett Doyle,  who rides Masar in all his homework.  Charlie is a nice guy,  and is doing well with his horses.   Quite the opposite to my old boss.  I am not sure what is going on with Saeed Bin Suroor’s yard.  The statistics do not lie, and Saeed’s stats are very poor for the season so far. Hopefully he can get things back on track for the remainder of the year, he ran a nice two year old yesterday that won, I knew he was fancied.  He handled the rain softened ground well.

No free bet advised today.

Epsom Derby day is upon us !

Looking at the race, it is hard to look beyond Saxon Warrior.  He has won the best trial and is unbeaten.  Another bonus is he is trained by Aiden O’Brian and ridden by Ryan Moore, but at even money with a few firms (Ladbrokes, Paddy Power) the bit of value is in the balance.  I think he will very likely win, but at 10/1 and above for the rest of the field, I will have a small each way on another that has a live chance.

Todays Free tip is as follows:

Horse: Delano Roosevelt

Time: 4:30 Epsom

Current Odds: 14/1 EW

This colt ran well to be second last time to Hazapour (who he meets again today).  He was second to Saxon Warrior at 2 over a mile, and although well beaten that day, it was a good run.  He is a really big horse, who has needed time to mature and fill his big frame.  He is still maturing and a lot more improvement is ahead, but his shrewd trainer would not be running him, if he didn’t think he had a decent chance. At good odds, he is my each way bet.

Really pleased with the amount of subscribers to my new racing information and advisory service.  I am confident that with my proven track record- for advising  winners,  that it will be a very profitable service for my subscribers.

Today is the first day of the Epsom Derby meeting.  The main older horse (4 yo+) race today being the Investec Coronation Cup at 3.10.  Cracksman who will start as a hot favourite, looks to have everything in his favour today, he should have no trouble in winning.  He is probably the best horse in training in Europe, at the moment, he is a course winner,  has a great jockey riding,  and will handle the softish ground.  At 2/7 he is one to put in a double, all is needed is finding one to go with it !

The Investec Oaks at 4.30 Epsom,  is for 3 year old fillies.  This race looks very open to me.   With the Ballydoyle maestro Aiden O’Brian saddling 8 runners for this Group 1 event.  Of them Magic Wand is the choice of stable jockey Ryan Moore, he does not get it wrong very often when choosing what to ride, if I was having a bet, it would be her each way at 9/2.  Hopefully the rain stays away, and the expected big crowd can have an enjoyable dry days racing.

Upcoming Information and Advisory service

I have been working on an exciting new racing project over the last few months.  Over the past year my blog has produced highly profitable results.  If you placed £100 on all horses advised,  you would now be £8,351 in profit!!!!

The new service will work as follows:

1. You will receive a number of premium tips per month, in exchange for a subscription fee of £50 per month or £100 for 3 months.
2. Horses advised will be sent to members privately by email, along with an analysis of the race (similar to previous analysis on this blog).  
3. Bets will be based on a points system, for example: 1pt = £100, 5 pts = £500. I will advise a bet of 1 to 5pts.  How members calculate their own points value, is entirely their choice.
4. This service will be for a limited number of members only.

I am really looking forward to starting this exciting service.  For more information email rosscampbell110@hotmail.com

The Blog

The blog will continue to give daily updates.  I will still give information on possible bets, but they will be on a much reduced frequency.  I hope that some of my followers will join the new venture, especially if they are interested in beating the bookies.

Late post on the blog today.  I have been busy working a new racing project, so nothing today.

A good winner yesterday, Burgonet was advised at 3/1 in the morning, she returned at 11/4. Giving a nice profit on the day. She was possibly unsuited by the track, as she looked laboured in the first half of the race, but P J McDonald galvanised her at the business end, she can win again, if not given too much weight by the handicapper.

Nothing to back today, a few horses running I follow, but strong races. More tomorrow.

Numerous race meetings today.  It always makes it difficult to find a winner, but hopefully I may have, at reasonable odds.

Todays Free tip is as follows:

Horse: Burgonet

Time: 4:05 Leicester

Current Odds: 3/1

I think the front two in the betting are nice improving fillies, so I have backed Burgonet to win, as she is favourite, and I have backed Qaswarah without the fav (Burgonet) at 2/1. They are both improving fillies, and should be OK on the ground ( good to soft).

I have had a 3/4 stake bet to win Burgonet, and a 1/2 stake bet Qaswarah(£125 outlay) obviously it all depends on followers on how much they bet. I calculate my tips at a £100 win or £50 each way, or 1 point win=£100 & 1/2 point each way= £100. Obviously everybody bets differently.

Anyone who does follow, can look at my results in detail. Currently +80 points or £8000.00 since starting last May.

Hopefully I can increase the profit-even more today.

Please keep an eye on the weather at Leicester, as I don’t think these fillies want SOFT ground to produce their best form. Thunder storms are possible.

Nice winner yesterday at Goodwood.  Mirage Dancer was an easy winner, he returned at evens, I backed him again when he drifted out from 4/5 as I really fancied him.  Good to see Pat Dobbs riding a lot more for Sir Michael Stoute, he is a good jockey, who is under used for some reason this season so far, hopefully he can stay on this horse, as there could be a Group race in him, he looks progressive.

No bet advised today. More tomorrow.

Nice to get a good winner yesterday.  Uber Cool backed each way at 9/2 advised,   heavily backed, he finished up as 3/1 favourite.  What a great ride by Frankie Dettori, he was at his best.

I saw Frankie at Newmarket recently on 2,000 Guineas day, he was his usual self full of banter, I have not seen him since last year, so it was good to say hello.   When I worked for Godolphin, Frankie was stable jockey.  He was always good to the staff, especially if he rode a good winner, great fun to be around,  but at the races he was the complete professional.  For me he is still one of the best jockeys riding.

Todays Free tip is as follows:

Horse: Mirage Dancer

Time: 3.45 Goodwood

Current Odds: 4/5

Although short in the betting, I think this horse will be very hard to beat.  He ran a really good race last time when second, only just beat that day by a very useful horse, they pulled clear of the third that day.  If he runs to that form he wins. He stays well, and has a good jockey on top.  I actually think he will improve a lot for the run last time.  He is obviously delicate, as he is lightly raced.  But this horse has a lot of talent. Of rivals, Euginio tries 1m 4f for the first time, if he stays he is probably the one to beat, Blakeney Point is very genuine, he stays well but may well benefit for the run today, it is his first run of 2018.

Fair amount of rain has fallen at Goodwood yesterday.  The ground is currently good to soft.

Todays Free tip is as follows:

Horse: Uber Cool

Time: 4:55 Goodwood

Current Odds: 9/2 Each Way

I am backing this horse each way.  A winner recently over 14f at Haydock, today’s 16f should be ok for this gelding. He has a good jockey riding and this lightly raced horse  has solid each way claims, he should handle the ground. Of rivals, Imphal has shown his best form on ground faster than good to soft, he will not appreciate any more rain, Medburn Cutler and Pointel are others that should be in the mix.
