I have not really had a punt since the Melbourne Cup carnival however coming into the Christmas break and with the Magic Millions Carnival just around the corner I have run the ruler of the races for this Saturday and have come up with a couple of best bets for todays racing.

Brisbane:

Race 2: Number 8 Zaha’s Ace
Race 6: Number 11 Tarloshan

Sydney:

Race 5: Number 3 Our Boy Malachi
Race 8: Number 8 Whitten’s Delight (e/w)

Melbourne:

Race 3: Number 6 Corporate Takeover
Race 7: Number 4 Kingdom of Dreams

I hope you find a winner if you are having a bet.

Kudos to the Gold Coast Titans

Graham Annesley, CEO of the Gold Coast Titans, has announced that Greg Bird has been removed as co-captain of the Titans, among other punishments, in the aftermath of him receiving an infringement notice for public urination.
 
 This was 100% the right call and one the Titans ought be lauded for. They should also be lauded for the swiftness with which this issue has been handled.
 
 It remains incomprehensible to me that Bird was stupid enough to put himself in this position. One wonders if he will finally learn?

Well played Sean Abbott!

Just checked in on the score in the game between my beloved Queensland Bulls and the New South Wales Blues at the SCG. The Bulls got destroyed by the Blues but I have to say I sit here with a smile on my face.
 
 The reason why is simple … these bowling figures:
 
 Sean Abbott 7-3-14-6
 
 I wrote earlier in the week that the best cricket news of 2014 was the fact that Sean Abbott was playing in this game and that piece of news is still the best. It must be said though that today’s performance from this impressive young man nearly trumps it.
 
 Well played Sean Abbott!!!

Friday Best Bet

December 12, 2014 By in Shumpty Speaks, Shumpty's Punt Tags: , , Leave a comment

It is Friday and Fridays should always be fun shouldn’t it? I could not pick a multi I was confident today however I do have one bet today that I am very keen on. The best value of the day in my opinion is:

Tampa Bay Lightning to cover the line (-1.5 goals) against the Carolina Hurricanes in the NHL.

This bet is paying $2.40 and represents the best bet of the day.
