About Me

For the past few years, I have dedicated the majority of my time to horse racing. I have become an established member of numerous racing forums and I am sure a few of you will have seen my 'Please Ignore' threads on GG and Everythinghorseracing.co.uk (great forum). In my spare time I also advise a number of parties concerning bloodstock and dosage profiles. In the last 5 years I have formulated numerous selection filters and rating systems which have allowed me to achieve substantial profit on a yearly basis. I have also established links with a number of stables, and receive regular info which I will share on the blog as and when I receive it. For me horse racing is a passion and I'm always looking at ways to improve, both as a tipster and as an equine enthusiast. I hope you enjoy reading my blog and feel free to contact me either via email at myhorseracing101@gmail.com or via twitter at horses4course.

Today's Selections

Obviously with today's terrible conditions and 2 meetings being abandoned its proving to be quite difficult to find potential winners. For that reason I will only be picking four potential selections today together with one info bet from Ireland (same source as Mozolotov).


Wolves 2:20 - Steelcut (5/2) - *** Rating - This horse is a proven CD performer who will always given you a run for your money at this track. Although he has a lot to do at the weights to beat the favourite I personally think that the Carr runner may be vulnerable. Obviously CD shouldn't be a problem for the Redcape but he has never won in April and is also 0 from 7 runs in fields this small. For those reason I believe it could pay to take him on and with the Evans yard boasting a fine record in selling company I believe that Steelcut is the horse to be on.

Wolves 3:20 - Overrule (10/3) - ** Rating - Now this has to be seen as a speculative selection but this horse has a lot in his favour and if this race was at Southwell then he would clearly be a short priced favourite. His current position in the market is largely due to the fact that he is untried at Wolves but his Sire has a good record there and Overrule has also won over further than today distance which will no doubt be beneficial considering that 1m 4f is bound to turn into a test of stamina in the current conditions. With Fallon's booked I'm happy to have a small win bet on this one but I wouldn't be surprised if Stand Guard ends up taking the prize.


Wolves 5:00 - Russian Storm (7/4) *** Rating - Like Overrule this horse would be shorter in the market if the race was taking place at an alternative venue (Lingfield) but if he can translate his form at that track today then she should have too much for her rivals. This mares Sire has a good record at Wolverhampton and I can see the drop in trip being too much if an issue against this opposition. Morgan is a quality jockey and knows what it takes to ride a winner at the track and that's exactly what I expect him to do. Those punter looking for an ew alternative should pay close attention to Flying Phoneix who is apparently well fancied by Her years to at least place.


3:30 Perth - Degas Art (13/2) *** Rating - This horse looks to be massively overpriced to me, He has won at the track, won on soft ground, is best in small fields (7 runs 4 wins), has a win to his name in class 2 opposition, goes best after breaks of between 16-30 days (8 runs 4 wins), has previously won carrying today's weight And hails from a yard which is one of just two stables represented in the race to have actually won at the track! For all those reasons 13/2 looks way too big and this looks like a nice bet.

Irish info horse will follow slightly later on as everyone is waiting on the weather. I also have news of an up coming competition where all my readers will get the opportunity to win two tickets to won of this summers big flat meetings.. It will be completely free to enter and I will explain it all in greater detail later on.


Best of luck with your bets today and proceed with caution as anything can happen in these conditions.

    Im only betting at Wolves today due to the nature of the ground everywhere else. My selections are below if your interested:

    2.20 - Red Cape 13/8

    I think the weight will be the issue in this race.

    3.20 - Stand Guard 9/4

    4.30 - Carianne 6/1

    Well handicapped and i think it could do the job today.

    5.00 - Russian Storm 7/4

    Totally agree with your comments.

    Well so far today I have had 2 seconds which is a bit disappointing but I did take advantage of the massive drift on Overrule and had a nice place bet on the exchanges before the off. The horse is definitely capable of winning another race soon and he is one to watch out for in the next few weeks. AS for Stand Guard I personally think that the jockey gave him a very poor ride and never put him in the race.

    I havent seen the race yet but from result i have seen on my phone Overrule was a very good price. County Road was tipped up on GG.com by some if my mind serves me right. Ive got a couple for Perth which i have written up on GG.com which are 330 - Tartan Snow 440 - Los Nadis both solid e/w bets in my opinion. Although the ground is my biggest worry.
