I’ll probably get dogs abuse for this (you’d be wrong) but here goes.
I was asked yesterday why I bet a 3/1 shot Eachway (American Mike) and just gave a bland response that it was ‘massive value’.
Will try to explain why on this thread 🧵
Punters, erroneously, have a belief that you shouldn’t bet anything below 5/1 eachway (when terms are 1/5 odds) because if the selection Places you make a loss on your bet.
Saw Seb Sanders say similar to @MCYeeehaaa recently.
This is not the way to approach eachway betting.

PUNCHESTOWN (Wed 27 Apr)
Subheading: As bad as it gets
We’ve only stood on course about 50 times so far. Yesterday was our most profitable day on the track. Today was our 2nd worst and we are now level on the week.
Let the fun begin …
15:40 - Life In The Park ISP 9/2 was a full point bigger on our board at the off and we laid a decent bet to lose 4-figs @ 7/1 to start the day off nicely 😡
A bet of €700 Thanksforthehelp @ 5/1 (ISP 7/2) was also struck.

PUNCHESTOWN (Tue 26 Apr)
Subheading: Small crowd, one horse day
15:40 - Party Central laid @ 3/1 and 11/4. Places fine. Race must have been bet to 102% in the ring. Come racing.
16:15 - The Industry SP is an absolute joke at the best of times but even I can’t slag the ISP of 20/1 Mighty Potter. Not sure how they’ve returned it that. First good value price off-course I’ve seen in years. Fairs fair. Mighty Potter was our biggest loser but not for much.
