My ITV 7 8th June 2024

Today I have backed each of my ITV 7 selections at available odds for a target profit of £5.00 for each winner. Each selection is timeform’s 5 star rated horse for that race
The first one is Maw Lam in the 14:05 at Beverley

Backed for a Stake of £1.67 at odds of 4.0

Next is Can’t Beat History in the 14:15 at Bangor-on-Dee

Backed for a stake of £1.42 at odds of 4.50 This I have backed with Coral as they are offering BOG on all of their races today

Number 3 on the list is Divina Grace in the 14:25 at Haydock.

This I have backed for a £2.00 stake at odds of 3.50

Fourth is at Beverley in the 14:40 with only 5 runners going to post at the time of writing the 5 star selection is Moving Force.

This is the shortest price of the 7 selections and is backed at 2.75 for £2.86

Race 5 is the 15:00 at Haydock 13 runners

Stake is £1.11 at odds of 5.50

6th on the ITV7 card is 15 minutes later in the 15:15 at Beverley with 14 runners going to post

£1.43 at odds of 4.50 would see a return of £6.44 giving a profit of £5.00 if the odds don’t drift.

The last to go on the card today is Ramazan in the 15:35 at Haydock an 11 runner stakes race.

I booboo’d on this one and had to put an extra 17p onto this to make the stake up to £1.00 at odds of 6.00

My total stake for this “event” is £11.49

ITV 7 and Timeform’s 5 Star Ratings

While sat waiting for yet another customer to come and unload their meat I quickly did the ITV 7 on Wednesday 5th of June.
My criteria was simple – I just selected the 7 horses that Timeform rated with 5 stars. Not rocket science but nothing to lose.
I had 2 winners from the 7 – this equates to a 28.5% strike rate.
I then got to thinking what if I had backed these 7 selections individually for a target profit of £5.00 so I did the maths
If I had backed these at S.P. my total stake would have been £13.16. With 2 winners both yielding £5.00 each in profit (not returns) I would have come out with a £2.81 overall profit
