Kirk Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 Going to the Hamilton races, never been to the races before and more or less clueless about it so anyone who's in the know got any decent tips? (For the horses before I just get tips in general) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlie Endell Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 I'm en route just now. Non runners galore. I'm having a wee e/w nibble on Carbutt's Ridge in the second - big price but shit draw. Sigurd in the third (about 3/1) and Jack Luey in the fifth. The first is amateur stuff and the fourth a fillies - will probably body swerve them. If I get any info I'll post on here.

Kirk Posted June 27, 2015 Author Share Posted June 27, 2015 Hey charlie hope you had a good night, didn't get the chance to reply. My winnings on the first 3 races covered the rest of the night so happy enough with thst. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlie Endell Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 (edited) I hope you didn't back any of my picks ! Sounds like you had a far better evening than me - I went straight through the card without a chicken dinner... Fortunately, I managed to recover my losses by getting three winners from the first four at Cartmel yesterday.

Kirk Posted June 27, 2015 Author Share Posted June 27, 2015 Had £20e/w on the first winner with my dad. And £5e/w on the second and third winners as a double. So got about £120 back from £50 between us. Put other stuff on while there and had a few small wins. Wasn't betting huge. Dad got a couple of reverse forecasts up too so he was happy. That's good at least. Got a couple on today so see how that goes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirk Posted June 27, 2015 Author Share Posted June 27, 2015 Got the bug now? Haha not quite, lack of football mainly. Money sitting in my 365 account that's been there for ages so not too fussed about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charlie Endell Posted July 11, 2015 Share Posted July 11, 2015 Is Sam Baillie no playm at some point? Tonight - I'll be scarpering straight after the last race. HP is really just a theme park for neds with some low-grade racing thrown in (to be fair the afternoon meets when it's just the hardcore are actually passable). Four quid for a can of Guinness in the members' bar is still a scandal at any time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would like to go on am afternoon and see how that is. Jesus Phuqqing God. Kanye? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlie Endell Posted July 12, 2015 Share Posted July 12, 2015 Another annihilation - third consecutive straight through the card. Only kept my head above water by backing three winners at Hamilton's sister course, Salisbury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charlie Endell Posted July 15, 2015 Share Posted July 15, 2015 I much prefer watching the racing on the telly to be honestI find it much harder to judge how my horse is doing - TV can be deceptive. There's no substitute for being there in my book. Friday night is actually a decent card by HP's standards - there's a Class 1 and a Class 2.
