How to make a profit dutching bet stakes

I have now added a dutching calculator to my main racing tips site as i use one when working out how to split my stake when I tip two or more horses in the same race

Dutching is a method used to back more than one horse in a race and works by putting the correct stake on each horse so that no matter which horse wins the same amount of profit is returned.

Dutching is a really powerful staking tool and was allegedly, created during the Prohibition Era by Al Capone's accountant, "Dutchy" Schultz. The amount he bet on each horse was carefully calculated so that the same amount of profit was madeif any of the horses he backed won the race.

Monday racing tips

May be late online as I have yet another hospital appointmet this morning.

The move to a stop at a winner system is still working well despite some real nightmares with the proofing...missed proofing a couple of winners by half a second and went into full tilt proofing mode racking up huge imaginary losses when I had actually already locked in the profit for the day, duh!

Southwell and Lingfield look real stinkers today so I am hoping for an early winner again then I can leave them alone.

UK horse racing tips Thursday 24th January

not too bad a day with a winner in the first for the Musselburgh Jackpot Placepot & Stop at a Winner Tips:

1.00 Im Delilah, Princess Flame WON 4/1

...followed by the first shortie also going on to win and the next jackpot tips at 1.30 coming in 1st and second.

In my tip alert email I advised to lay the second shortie, Honour´s Dream, which was unplaced "led until ridden and headed before 2 out, lost place quickly, eased" and to have a small each way bet on Loulou Nivernais... "took keen hold, prominent, 2nd at 7th until ridden and weakened quickly before 2 out".. maybe today will be the day for a double for Loulou's trainer?

No official bets today as I have to leave soon to attend a small ceremony for the interment of mum's ashes and to sort out her house.

Should be back to normal tomorrow and for the foreseeable future.

Boxing Day Racing Winners, Welsh National

Too much racing yesterday! Glad I concentrated on the Jackpot meeting at Kempton and the Scoop6 which included 2 races at Wetherby...close but no jackpot payout but had four winners at Kempton and another at Wetherby which would have made a tasty multiple bet if I had bothered...

Off to have a look at the Welsh National and todays tips will be on Gambling Housewife later this morning.

Probably no tips tomorrow, Friday, as I am going back to stay at mum's tonight. She had a very bad day yesterday needing extra morphine for new pains in her back and has lost all use of her left leg. Poor soul is undergoing a terrible ordeal. Different GP visiting today, I hope he ensures she gets the best relief possible.

Wednesday Free Horse Racing Tips Newbury Jackpot

...will be online on the Gambling Housewife before the start of the first race at midday.

However I do not know when I will next be able to publish my tips as Mum remains mostly pain free but nausea a problem but are giving her an injection when nausea esp bad which seems to help. She is weaker every day, so much so that she cannot move unaided and bedsores are becoming a problem, poor soul. A positive is that she is much morre settled in her new room and there are one or three things that we can do which still give her some pleasure

Back off there later today, had a much needed night at home last night, crashed on sofa about 8pm....but nothing compared to her ordeal..

Hope all is well with you and yours

Sunday Horse Racing Tips

..will be online soon, tasty rollover for the Tote Jackpot Race Card at Kempton!

Mum is weakening every day that passes, she seems a lot happier since the move to room 13 ( I was surprised that a nursing home has a room thirteen) and relatively symptom free which is a relief for all. Mum said I could have my nanas copy of Elizabeth Craig's Cookery illustrated and Household management which has a weierd and wonderful collection of household hints...

for example:
"Corns, Cure for:

Soak some bread in vinegar for 2 days and put a piece as a poultice on the corn overnight, binding it on with a strip of rag. Every 3 days soak the feet in hot water and peel off a layer of the corn. Continue the treatment until the corn has disappeared"
