diamond_for_life Posted August 24, 2017 Posted August 24, 2017 Decided to keep a wee record of how I have been doing on the sky bet money back offer since I started it. If i get the bet back I usually stick it on a coupon so I have been trying to do it every time it comes up. A wee incentive to go for a longer odds horse and very rarely will i take the favourite unless I can't see passed it. Here is how its went so far. 0 Quote
diamond_for_life Posted August 24, 2017 Author Posted August 24, 2017 Started on the 15th of July with a £10 on 10/1 and had the ideal start. The following weekend got the double up with a 7/1 winner on the Saturday and a 4/1 winner on the Sunday. 0 Quote
diamond_for_life Posted August 24, 2017 Author Posted August 24, 2017 The following week was a loser on the Saturday and it was no where but the Sunday gave me a 4/1 winner 0 Quote
diamond_for_life Posted August 24, 2017 Author Posted August 24, 2017 The next two weeks only had 1 offer each weekend i had two losers. 0 Quote
diamond_for_life Posted August 24, 2017 Author Posted August 24, 2017 That weekend provided a 6/1 winner 0 Quote

diamond_for_life Posted August 25, 2017 Author Posted August 25, 2017 (edited) Today's effort hoping for a bit of rain and on soft going it has a great chance. The fav pulled out this morning. Edited August 25, 2017 by diamond_for_life 0 Quote
jagfox Posted August 25, 2017 Posted August 25, 2017 Some great bets there @diamond_for_life. However your winnings seem down to your selections rather than the Sky Bet offer? The one today is money back if the selection is 2nd, 3rd or 4th to the selection. So a decent saver if you usually punt ew, I suppose? Londinium into 6/1 fav now. Has a really good chance. Speedo Boy and Amazing Red were tipped on Ben Linfoot's value bets. I quite like the look of Al Neksh myself. Good luck! 0 Quote

As silly as it sounds too many times I've been talked out of a horse by the "pros" and I usually end up regretting it. Was between Londinium and Amazing red due to them liking the softer going. Al Neksh looks a real danger too. Always a chance of some big price winners at these meetings. 0 Quote
jagfox Posted August 25, 2017 Posted August 25, 2017 I've ended up going fir Amazing Red on the nose, as you say has won on soft ground recently. Haggas has a good record with this race but came up short on last run trying to beat the handicapper after a win in his previous race. That and Dettori put me off after a bit of digging. 0 Quote
diamond_for_life Posted August 25, 2017 Author Posted August 25, 2017 I don't like Londinium being backed into favourite. I know the horse wont know that but I feel being gambled into favourite has an impact on how it is raced by the jockey. 0 Quote
diamond_for_life Posted August 25, 2017 Author Posted August 25, 2017 A very good battling win for Fidaawy. Londinium never got going 0 Quote
