The talented @_jackcallan_ saved my bacon last week to turn a losing day into a profitable one with John Galt. Here's hoping for another day in the green but with less stress! Best of luck with your bets today: independent.ie/sport/horse-ra…

@dwmh @SharpBettingGB Hi David, what's the reason for <=3.5, it it to avoid long losing streaks starting off? And for the first 500, is it doubles? Thanks.

Of course, anyone can do what they want with @SharpBettingGB football, but in this 2-minute video I explain how to get into the long-run with as little drama as possible until comfortable with how it works youtube.com/watch?v=V_zr65…

A few for today: independent.ie/sport/horse-ra…

You’d never get rich, but you wouldn’t have gone broke either. For those that don’t mind an odds-on bet, here are the results of backing horses at 1.99 or lower to Betfair SP in British Flat Turf handicaps. Seven winners from 11 bets in 2026 so far. Assumes 2pc commission.

@SenseiChanning @nickluck Is it available on Spotify? Thanks

Our latest episode of Bet the House is in at No1 under "Top Shows" in "Government" on Apple Podcasts. Does anyone know if they send you a gold disk or anything? Be lovely if people who like it would share plus give us a five star rating and a quick review.

After a rough Punchestown, a decent day with Bow Echo and Rose Of Honour. Well done Billy Loughnane and @gbougheyracing fantastic Guineas result for two hard working lads who deserve all the success they get, and are on the way to the top.

2,000 Guineas day and Punchestown, day five: independent.ie/sport/horse-ra…

Ouch, that hurt, Our Lucky Lady went off at 55.0 on Betfair, going well and traded down to 4.4 in-running. Thought I was going to land a big one 😩

Punchestown, day four: independent.ie/sport/horse-ra…

Only thing is that the Premium Horse Comment seems to be much shorter?

@TonyOShea16 It's been a tough festival so far but that was welcome, I backed Don't Go Yet at just over 7/1 for a place on the machine so delighted with that. Teahupoo for me in the next.

@WayneBaileyTips 2 nice each way tips there Wayne both tried in fairness good stuff 👍

Punchestown, day three: independent.ie/sport/horse-ra…

I thought that was a nice confident ride by Sarah Kavanagh to finish third at 33/1 on Don't Go Yet, tipped each way for the column. She kept up with the pace and got a bit more from the 12-year-old when he looked like running out of gas. Well done!

@HughRacing You are one of the few tipsters to publish a proper P&L so have full respect of anyone out there that understands the betting game and variance etc. I've learned so much from reading your column down through the years, keep up the great work!

I've also added a few thoughts on the column's poor start to the year

2nd & final selection (1pt) online next 5 minutes attheraces.com/tips

A few from Sandown as the British jumps season comes to a close, and one on the Flat at Leicester today, best of luck with whatever you back: independent.ie/sport/horse-ra…

Hi @geegeez_uk , having a problem with my account, I sent an email but not sure I have the right address, can you confirm the best way to get in touch?

While just one of my two bets was placed in the National , the other two @IndoSport selections won at 5/1 and 8/1 so I'll take that any day!
