A couple of days ago I pulled together some ‘through the card’ ‘starting points’ for Thirsk, for a member who was off racing (he and his friends backed x3 winners in the process, always good news). One of the stats I stumbled across was a trainer jockey/combo who did well at the course with horses aged 4. They had two ‘qualifiers’ on the card and thankfully one of them, My Thought, won at 7s > 7/2. That angle, and fourteen others, can be found below. They all focus on the Flat Turf.
It’s a simple yet logical approach… finding trainer/jockey combos at certain courses with horses aged X. Below you can find the ‘rules’ in bold followed by the results, going back to the start of 2018. There are no ‘odds’ caps’. As always i’ve been careful to ensure said angle isn’t dominated by one or two horses. The ‘micros’ are listed in alphabetical order by course, there’s even a handful of Irish angles… let’s crack on…

Newmarket’s July Meeting
I’ll be pulling together a few of my own pointers for this three day meeting, which starts next Thursday.
However, in the meantime, my friends at Free Racing Tips have another magazine preview for you.
It’s always high quality stuff, as per the Royal Ascot mag I send you every year, and indeed their Euros preview.
(to see if you agree, you can flick through their Royal Ascot Mag HERE >>>)
Inside this new magazine, you’ll find tonnes of useful stats and trends on the past winners for every feature race at the Newmarket meeting.
And best of all… you can get a copy of it for FREE.
The horses that tend to win Group races often share many of the same characteristics as previous winners.
So, the trends inside this guide should be very useful in helping you identify likely contenders this year.
Click HERE >>> to grab your free digital copy >>>
As always, you need to tell them where to send it. And as always, it’s an email list you can unsubscribe from easily, anytime you please. 🙂

Hi John,
Thanks for posting and your kind words.
Oh no! 🙁 I hope they bought you a drink or two to console you! That was a good performance from him under a penalty, he’s owned by a few Liverpool players past and present I think, their fist dip into ownership, looks like they’ve got a half decent one on their hands.
Josh
haven’t got many flat micro’s so brilliant and thanks very much as usual 🙂
Josh – This Thirsk thing has certainly snowballed into a bigger thing. Let’s hope it unearths a good number of winners
Thanks for these Josh, Mike Smith/Paddy Mathers 5yo at Ayr just came in, Royal Countess, took 11/4 went off 15/8, easy win …..
