Handicap Chases

[grantcharman]

OK, I've been away from horses for a couple of years, but back into it now. I've been thinking about handicap chases in particular and have started to put together a method for selecting potential winners (or place?). Thought I'd try posting the selections so that everyone can laugh at my ineptitude :rolleyes:

Anyone who follows these must need their head looking at :)

So here goes with todays picks:

3.15 Market Rasen - Cardington @ 8.2
3.45 Market Rasen - no selection
5.15 Market Rasen - no selection

3.25 Kelso - Super Baby @ 3.95
4.25 Kelso - Wild Cane Ridge @ 3.55

3.35 Warwick - Nelson @ 2.9
4.35 Warwick - Keenans Future @ 3.9

Wish me luck! Will update later hopefully.

That'll be Vegy's job as he's top of the ineptitude class anyway! :wink Good luck with them :thumbs

[bryn]

Good luck Grant

[neilb7]

Good luck, any reason you have been away for a couple of years?:ermmm

[grantcharman]

I was in a job that just did not give me time to sort out selections and get bets on. Previously I had my own office so no-one knew what I was doing...and now I work from home:wiggle:

So nothing exciting

[neilb7]

:thumbs
ok, just wondering as you joined at a similar time to me and i have been on and off for a couple of years, but back to stay now.

Good luck:thumbs

[grantcharman]

Just realised this would be better put under the £1000 mythical challenge section - oops :headbange

I'll restart in there.

[bigcumba]

give us a minute and I'll move this for you Grant - you might want to sort out staking for them though!

[grantcharman]

Forgot to say earlier, all staking (to start anyway) is 3% of bank, set on daily basis. All bets assumed to be Betfair or BetDAQ whichever has the best prices at the time. Won't take less than 3.25 odds and will void any that I can't get that price.

Market Rasen 3.15 Cardington @ 8.0 lost
Kelso 3.25 Super Baby @ 4.3 lost
Warwick 3.35 Nelson @ 3.4 won :thumbs
Kelso 4.25 Wild Cane Ridge @ 3.5 withdrawn not under orders
Warwick 4.35 Keenans Future @ 3.5 won :thumbs

Starting bank £1000
Daily profit/loss (after commission) + £ 79.65
New bank £1080
Next stake £32

Happy with that as a starting day. Have lost faith in Super Baby as let me down twice in the last couple of weeks.

Another dodgy day for chasing as far as I can see...I'm certainly not going to oppose Peter Pole again in the race at Taunton. The Towcester chases are littered with untrustworthy jumpers so finding anything worthwhile is difficult. I do think it's worth opposing Johns Square (despite McCoy) as his jumping is so suspect...of the other runners I couldn't trust most of them, but Tomillielou at least seems to have solid jumping and reasonable place form over recent starts so:

2.40 Towcester Tomillielou

Hopefully break the losing run:doh
