Starting 1st September 2026, we are going to simplify our presentation and ask Archimedes the Arthritic Intelligence machine to make six selections based on its vast knowledge of the interweb, water polo, racing, and the mysteries of organised religion. We wish humanity well.

The rest of the ratings are based on a mix of various data points, and their performance and/or reliability can be seen in the accompanying stats. Of course they won’t all win or be placed - but at least you have a fighting chance of narrowing the search for your holiday money.


Yesterday’s results:

  • R P McMurphy — Wolverhampton 19:00 · won at 3/1J

  • Apex Star (IRE) — Wolverhampton 16:28 · 2nd of 12 at 9/4F (below-5/1 win-only, no return)

  • Ballybunion (IRE) — Wolverhampton 19:30 · 7th of 12 at 13/8F (below-5/1 win-only, no return)

  • Henery Hawk — Wolverhampton 20:00 · 4th of 9 at 9/2

  • Falah Glory (IRE) — Wolverhampton 17:30 · 8th of 10 at 9/2

  • Ephron (IRE) — Redcar 14:53 · 7th of 13 at 8/1

Running total for Today’s Selections (from 1 September 2026):

  • Yesterday: 6R - 1W - 0P - P&L: -7.00pts

  • Since 1 Sept: 83R - 9W - 10P - P&L: -78.17pts
