Monday 17th July 2017



After saying I would for a while, I've finally decided to start a blog, I follow racing as much as I can and have been learning and betting on the sport for the last four years. So as the name suggests I'm both a university student and a 'student punter' - still learning the game of horse racing. Hopefully this blog can chuck out a few winners whilst helping me to become a better punter. 

Just the one selection as it stands for Monday

15:30 Ayr - RUBIS 8/1 (e/w)

Rubis won well over course and distance in June, a smooth success where she travelled much the best and didn't have to be ridden too hard in the closing stages, winning by just over a length. Following this win, she was stepped up in trip to 1m4f under a penalty at Ripon where she finished 6th. This was a good run considering the penalty she had to carry and the fact that she raced far too keenly throughout the contest and yet still was not beaten far. Returning to 1m2f and racing off a mark 3lbs lower today, with Adam McNamara on board claiming an additional valuable 3lbs, she should go well. Hoping the 8 runners stand their ground and we'll get the three places each way. The favourite, Lucent Dream, is a lightly raced horse for his age and is 3lb well in after finishing second to a progressive sort over course and distance last Sunday, hence this bet being an each way play.
