Day Four - Southwell

After gambling on my first night racing the day before, today was my first betting on foreign horse racing.

1:20 – Isabella's Fancy

1:55 – La Capriosa

2:25 – Back in the Red

3:00 – Rawdon

3:30 – Whiskey Creek

4:05 – Duke of Urbino

Another disappointing day which means that I can probably only afford a couple more days like this. Beginning to lose faith in Templegate!!!

Win:£2.97, Cumulative Earnings: -£1.44

Day Three - Nad Al Sheba

After gambling on my first night racing the day before, today was my first betting on foreign horse racing.

3:45 – Prince Shaun

4:15 – Quicksand

4:45 – Feared in Flight

5:15 – Front House

5:45 – My Indy

6:15 – Imbongi

And I have judged I probably won’t be betting on foreign horse racing again! Two second places and one winner, all three at very short odds therefore winning only £3.19

Win:£3.19, Cumulative Earnings: £1.59

Day Two - Kempton

For the second day I chose some night racing, as I wouldn’t be able to check the results - I realised yesterday why some people can get addicted to horse race gambling, as I was checking the results page on the BBC every 5 minutes!

18:50 – Tusculum

19:20 – Know by Now

19:50 – Street Power

20:20 – Southandwest

20:50 – Petrovsky

21:20 – Private Passion

Everything started well as Tusculum came home a winner (although it was 8/11 favourite!), in the second race Know by Now came home in second but it wasn’t until the fifth race when Petrovsky crossed the line in second I had another place although Private Passion did win the last race.

Bizarrely, despite picking more winners and places than the previous day there was less profit, only £1.61 profit today.

Win: £7.61, Cumulative Earnings: £4.40

Day One - Southwell

2:10 - Flaming Ruby

2:40 - Strathmore

3:10 - Diamond Surprise

3:40 - Ingleby Arch

4:10 - Reigning in Rio

4:40 - Karmest

Those were the six horses Templegate had chosen, and the six I had placed 50p e/w on.

I wasn’t overly impressed with the results, Diamond Surprise and Ingelby Arch both placed in second, and the sole winner being Reigning in Rio, however if I get a profit of £2.79 everyday then I will be happy indeed!

Win: £8.79, Cumulative Profit: £2.79

The Start of Something!?

Hi, this week I moved into the world of horse race betting. Whilst I had tried this previously, it has always been sporadic and rarely successful.

However, with the finding of "Templegate" on the Sun website, I have decided to use a system. Basically, I will be selecting one meeting per day (or as often as I can), choosing six races (to fit around my university schedule) and placing 50p each way on each of the horses he has tipped.

If it is successful after the initial two week trial period I will continue, if not I will move onto another tipster!

Wish me luck!
