i was fearing the worst today ................

woke up this morning pulled the bedroom curtains back and in the garden was a lone magpie paroling my patio ................ now let me explain it all started when i was a kid helping my dad out on a saturday in the betting shop , when they were betting shops not the amusement arcades we have now , we had the extel commentary , not a glimmer of sunlight , formica tops and boardman , my grandad had great pride in his board with different colours for favs , winners , non runners etc etc but i digress on our journey all hell would break lose if my dad spotted a sole magpie we would drive all over the place in search of a second magpie , hence my obsession with the unlucky lonely magpie . i was out in the garden with my cuppa for 15 mins looking for a second poxy pie , we had tits of all distractions , pigeons , sparrows , blackbirds but no magpies ! so i was fearing the worst ..................

ISIRIS

insiders 3.00 A £75 @ 2/1 2nd -£75
5.35 wolv B £25 ew @ 12/1 unpld -£50

PERSONAL TRADING

after the setbacks of the last couple of days i changed tact and took on two favs , trading them to lay at very skinny prices , in the 2.35 fak MH was keen to oppose the mccoy ridden you,ll do for me i had the position of laying £90 @ 2.61 when the tapes went up and in the 4.10 san MH felt the pipe fav prime bere was too short , he made him a 5/2 shot and when the message was released he was trading @ 2.26/2.28 , i laid him at various rates from 2.28 up to 2.36 and backed him at over 2.50 i was left with a lay of £175 @ 1.79 , both were beat and out of the frame , i should consider more place laying !!! anway a profit of £256.36 for me and more important a profit on the day to dispel the magpie fixation ......................

cum p/l + £1872.12

THE30KCHALLENGE ................... -£2385.45

Hi Dirk

I gave M holder a call today and he told me that last year they were 220pts in front can you verify this , seems quite a decent service.Regards Luslen

Evening Dirk, interesting reading. What exactly is the Tra la la Gold Cup selection please? Sorry if it's posted somewhere here already I haven't got time to read your entire blog at the moment!!

Good luck with the challenge.

luslen , i made slightly over 180pts with MH last year the discrepency would be down to prices and holidays i took just over 4 weeks holiday and i dont play when im away i have a total recharge so i dont call . MH is a genuine decent bloke , yes he will go thru losing runs see january but in the long run you will end up in profit, as with all services you have to give them a decent crack of the whip and not expect miracles overnight .when no bets for the exchange player his message can still be worth its weight in gold as he is very good at pinpointing poor value favs . you have no call backs in the summer there will be 2 messages one @ 12.30 the other @ 5.00 . his prices are easier to acquire than isiris but saying that its advantageous if you can ring at the message time and have access to as many bookmaking outlets as possible , think that sums it up any other questions give me a shout , regards DD.

dave z , by nature im a most accomodating bloke but your request put me in a little dilemma , i stated from day 1 that i wont give selections out before they run , this is to respect the services involved and the people who pay for the privilage to obtain the information , you are obviously not a isiris member , so im sure you can understand my position . but on the otherhand kb gave the selection out over a week ago so i would presume all members have now "got on" listen all i will say is that it will be ridden by creamcrackers , i cant be no fairer than that , cheers for reading my blog regards DD.

hi DD glad MH is making a comeback for you. Can you please remind me about how many bets he gives out in a week. how long have been with him/ is he CONSISTENT? Ive already drunk my listener champers. I actually won the prze champers a while ago shortly after i'd been on a rant on the forum! Stay lucky Jeanius

jeanius , my confidence in MH has never wavered , imho he is the best there is and genuine with it aswell , yes he will go thru losing spells but in the long run you will come out profitable , he gives out a average of 2/3 bets a week i have been with him since 1998 yes he is consistent over a period of time he will have losing days , weeks and months but over a period of time he will give profits as long as you follow the staking plan . youre the first i heard win the champers !! is it just a bottle of champers or do u get glasses aswell ??

regards DD .
