It’s that time of year when mug punters, myself included, attempt to try and beat the bookies at their own game.

Post your tips and inevitable disasters in here. Naijoy

I’ve gone for a couple of different bets tomorrow, just to see how I go, which will inevitably all end up in the glue factory, so in order to avoid them I’ve posted them below.  

Single

2:50 Vintage Clouds e/w

Lucky 15

1:30 Abacadabras
2.10 Notebook
2.50 Discorama
3.30 Pentland Hills

I might have a punt on the last few races if I’m doing alright. Warnock

Good luck to all. Shitwine

I've scooped on the horses like Tony Hmm to be honest my interest in the horse racing went a long time ago, don't even bet on it anymore.

Shite day today! Fat Cunt

A whole £3.64 back on my Lucky 15 means an overall loss of £22 thus far.

Will need to have a good think about tomorrow’s horses later if I’m going to make a profit this week. vladchin
