BETDAQ OFFERS ARE BONKERS
⭕ 2.25 Brighton Roger Varian, who is 4-6 at Brighton this year, has helped put apprentice Aidan Keeley on the map, and the pair get together with the lightly-weighted dual course winner, Bonkersinabundance, at big BETDAQ value this morning.
They won a race of winners here last month, stepping up a grade, and climb again, into class 4 today, with another good draw.
Little Boy Blue is a once-a-year winner and seems to have had his turn. Fitting of the visor has helped Matty Too, but he’s up in grade for a 10lb overall rise.
Granary Queen has run some good races but is difficult to win with; just look at that string of 2322332423 since the mare scored on AW last September.
Betdaq Betting Exchange 5.3 Bonkersinadbundance
ALUMNUS CAN WIN BY MILES
⭕ 4.00 Brighton Challenge Cup Charlie Johnston, who won for us at Kempton yesterday with Sayidh Kingdom (9-20), last year gave the yard a third win in this race in seven seasons and has a 50% strike rate from four runners at Brighton this year for the long, long journey from Middleham Moor.
His runner here, Alumnus, has been heavily punted here this morning (BETDAQ 4.0). Alumnus has been this way before; only last week, in fact, attempting a class 3 at Goodwood when not fancied in the least, a massive 66-1.
It seems to say a lot that this Newcastle-only winner (his only places are there, too) is traveling the major mileage down to Sussex yet again.
Of course, this could all be a complete red herring but he’s dropped to his winning grade for a race in which three-year-olds do well.
Epsom winners Bug Boy and Night Eagle should like this hilly switch-back track, and Al Azhar won on an easy surface at Newbury last summer.
WIN-AND-PLACE DOLLY AT 9.4
⭕ 7.00 Chepstow As a punter, the so-called Racing League leaves me as cold as Saturday’s Shergar Cup, but there are 194 acceptors to be sorted today for the six Cup races at Ascot.
And the prizemoney for the Racing League at Chepstow has trainers from Scotland, Wales and Ireland taking part just across the bridge in Monmouth tonight.
The world is all about trading nations and all who close such bridges for the sake of snobbery, power to their gross egos or fake sovereignty make us all poorer in so many different ways.
So Keep Racing Positive is a welcome launch to the evening and no offence if I skip to this 7 o’clock in my value challenge to Pricewise, where he sides with Gordon Grey, Saffie Osborne having taken the League fixtures by storm.
Snag is that ‘Gordon’ is still a maiden. If the money was down the last day – he was favourite in a class 5 at Newmarket – and he was beaten, then his chance is not great against the winners of 11 races, raised two grades here.
Totnes has won three from eight but none on turf, and I Still Have Faith tries to climb two grades to complete the hat-trick.
Claiming off Miss Dolly Rocker could help her bridge the gap, after a sequence of six in a row in the first three, culminating in an easy success on soft ground, which could be key in today’s conditions. BETDAQ value 9.4.
LAST-RACE KING: BETDAQ 8.1
⭕ 8.30 Chepstow Saxon King has the pace for a class-2 race and knows how to win one when it’s soft ground. Trainer Charles Hills thought him good enough for the Britannia at Royal Ascot, yet he is 8.1 on BETDAQ today.
The Ascot occasion got to him that day and, after an awkward start from a bad draw, he finished fourth in his group. But that was after three wins in four starts.
Four out of five goes in Group races would normally give Misty Grey a great chance here but he hasn’t won on turf since May 2019; it was the grey’s sole success on grass and it was a novice event.
Tim Easterby has saddled only one horse at Chepstow in the last five years; maybe he thinks it’s Chester: that’s where Boardman has won three times.
Trip, conditions and rating are right for Atrium but Charlie Fellowes won’t be able to give you the time of day: Atrium shows nothing at home and Charlie says he knows as much as you do before the race is run.
Ramazon has scored over 7f but is reckoned better over shorter and is expected to return to 6f. Zip needs a deep surface, so best to reassess him nearer the time of the race.

What are points? Points facilitate a staking plan, which is the secret to creating profit. One point is whatever you choose: a pound, a euro, or whatever ….
Start with a bank and decide how much you can afford to lose over a period of time, and determine the size of your bets accordingly. Daqman makes this variation every day.
