Reapers Racing Tips Season

[The_Reaper]

I have a friend who gives me a lot of tips. Last year I backed a lot of them and seemed to do alright, although I have no idea if I was up or down over the season.

Just decided I will try and track it a bit better and thought it would be fun to keep it updated here.

My "system" is to judge how good the tip is for myself and back it. If it is low odds I will do 2 or 3 units, higher odds 1 unit maybe each way. Its that scientific!

Newcastle 6.40 - Pass Muster

2* @ 2.62 Bet 365

Newmarket 2.00 - Idiom

0.5 * @ 10.0 Sporting Bet / betfair

(£2.22 max at Sporting bet lol)

[The_Reaper]

Idiom -0.5 units
Pass Muster +3.24 units

YTD +2.74 units

Le Roi Max tomorrow at Newton Abbot. Unless its raining.

Probably 0.5 units each way at whatever Bet365 will give me over the phone (wont be able to compare odds at work).

Edit - 0.5 units each way at Betfair (5.7 and 2.02 on win/place)

Edit 2 - Another 0.5 units each way 10.0 @ Blue Sq

Damn, big drift before the off should have put me off! If I had originally backed at Bet365 or a best odds guaranteed bookie I probably wouldnt have out the extra bet on. Lesson learnt.

YTD +0.74 units

[The_Reaper]

Eavesdropper 3.45 0.5 units each way @29 VCbet

[The_Reaper]

YTD -0.26 Units

[The_Reaper]

2:20 Navan 2 units on The Four Masters @ 3.10

[The_Reaper]

YTD -2.26 units.

An observation so far, all my tips have shortened in price significantly up until the off. Maybe I should have done this as a trading experiment. Will see how it looks in a few weeks.
