NAPs Table – Betornot

Sportinglife July NAPs Record

Next under the microscope in regards to their best bets of the day (NAP) is Sporting Life. Currently running 4th in the Racing Post NAPs Table with a profit score of £14.32 to a £1.00 level stake he/she/they have a long way to go to catch the mighty Templegate from the Sun newspaper but we will see in this post as to whether or not The Sporting Life has made any inroads to that goal. From my previous post regarding Templegates July record we can see that he had a level stakes loss of £11.10, Sporting Life did slightly better with a total loss of just £3.89 gaining on the top spot by £7.21. If we used the 10% staking method on Sporting Lifes NAPs a month of fun would have cost us just £1.97.
Laying these NAPs would have seen a profit but only £1.36 to £2.00 stakes but profit is profit but this could have gone most terribly wrong if a couple more selections had won, especially if Maries Diamond had won on the 3rd with a BSP of 35.02 or Lostwithal on the 9th at a BSP of 20!
As in the previous post I have provided the spreadsheet to download for all of Sporting Lifes NAP picks for July.

Templegates July NAPs Record

In a previous post I quoted that Templegates £1.00 Level stake profit/loss for July was -£5.62 with one Nap left to run. This figure was in fact incorrect, his actual P/L to £1.00 level stakes for July was -£11.10. The figure I quoted was for a 10% staking plan (Staking 10% of a starting bank of £10.00 and adding any profit and loss to the bank and recalculating the stake for the next day). This figure was when all NAPs were run came out as a £5.87 Loss.
If you had Layed all of his NAPs at the exchange at BSP (Betfair Starting Price) to the minimum £2.00 stake required by Betfair then your actual profit would have been £19.12 when all commissions had been paid (In my case it is 2% but the normal commission rate is 5% which would have resulted in a profit of £17.68)
Again I must correct myself as to an error in the previous post stating that the profit when laying his NAPs was £27.16 with just one to go. This is because I did all of my calculations starting with a bank of £10.00 and forgot to subtract this at the end of the month. apologies for giving you an adrenalin rush in the sheer magnitude of this profit figure 😆

The next Tipster under the Microscope will be Sporting Life who also has a overall profit in the NAPs table but how well did they do in July alone and would it be worth looking at Laying these NAPs as Well

NAPS Betting

What is a NAP? apart from a short sleep a Racing Nap is a tipsters best bet of the day. Derived from the card game Napoleon in which the best hand is a Napoleon or NAP. Its as simple as that so stop trying to work out the acronym.
The racing Post runs a “NAPS Table” for the racing press who are invited to submit their “best bet” of the day with points being given as the equivalent winnings at S.P. to a level £1.00 stake. For instance if the horse wins at odds of 4/1 then they will be awarded £4.00 and if it loses then a subtraction of £1.00. At the time of writing this Blog the current Leader is Templegate from the Sun newspaper with a positive balance of £46.68 and a losing streak of 4 days.
Everyone has their favourite tipster and you can make up your own mind who to follow if any at all but backing the NAP of a serious tipster means just 1 bet per day. When I say “serious Tipster” I say it with a certain amount of scepticism as I suspect that some journalists in the table are perhaps pinning the racing page up on the wall and chucking a dart at it and submitting the horse closest to the hole it made. I refer in particular to the lower end of the table where some 66/1 outsiders are being tipped! surely these cannot be their best bets of the day.
I am not an advocate of staking plans but in this case I will follow the Sporting Life Nap using the 10% method of staking just to make it interesting.
I started on July 12 (Monday) and as luck would have it the NAP won at 2.25 and working from an initial bank of £10.00 after day 1 my bank stood at £12.25! None have won yet since and the bank now stands at £8.37 with Pretty Green to run at Nottingham today with 84p riding on it at odds of 4.5 (7/2) and BOG if the price lengthens.
I ill try and update this post on a daily basis but work commitments may dictate otherwise.
Pretty Green lost and focus switched to Saturdays NAP which is Mountain Peak Running at Haydock and with my bank running at £7.53, 75p goes on the selection at odds of 3.5 (5/2)
5th Place is all it could manage which brings a losing streak of 5. Sundays NAP is Moneykenny and I am just waiting until 9am to ensure I get BOG
