Thursday 18th September | Daily Horse Racing Tips – The Daily Trio | Kickthebookies

🐎 Today’s Daily Trio

Overview: The quality improves slightly from the early week action on Thursday which hopefully means more horses run to form during a tricky time of year punting wise. I’m confident in today’s selections anyway.

🏇 Trainer insight: Charlie Johnson has a level stakes profit at Chelmsford this season and sends just one: Explosion to the 4:18

🥇 One to Note: Forever Penywern is one I’ll be laying at heavy odds-on in the 5:25 at Chelmsford.

⚠️ Traveller: Marcus Tregoning sends Twilight Moon 224 miles to contest the 2:52 at Pontefract.

💸 Profit Stat: Charlie Appleby has a great record at Kempton and sends three with live chances: Leone Alato(3:57), Henry Lawson (6:12), Valdorcia (6:45),

🐎 Today’s Daily Trio selections

Leone Alto can enhance Charlie Appleby’s strong record at Kempton by taking their opener at 3:57. This twice raced maiden has shown ability in races at Newmarket and Newbury and William Buick rides a good tactical race on this course.

Charlie Hills sends Khafar to tackle the Kempton fillies novice at 6:45. This daughter of Dubawi has plenty of scope based on breeding – she is a sister to Mutasaabeq and is from the 1000 Guineas and Coronation Stakes winner Ghanaati. Her debut at Newbury was good, and she can step forward today.

Kingmaker has raced nine times without tasting victory, but I think is the standout by a mile in the 7:30 at Chelmsford. This son of Camelot improved for stepping into AW handicap company last time when finishing second and is massively unexposed with room to climb the handicap. This step up in trip could allow him to show us the ability he has.

Daily Trio selections: Leone Alto (3:57 Kempton), Khafar (6:45 Kempton), Kingmaker (7:30 Chelmsford).

Daily Trio Strategy

What is the Daily Trio strategy?

Our proven betting system is three singles and a treble. As a simple guide:

1 winner = roughly money back
2 winners = profit
3 winners = jackpot

It’s a sustainable way to have a bet every day while keeping the chance of a nice win alive. The key is holding our own with the bookies until we land the day where all three go in—and the treble lands.

Why & how does the Daily Trio strategy work?

  • ~33% strike rate across the year (~1 in 3 winners).
  • Singles are designed to hold stake over time.
  • Profit kicker comes from the treble — that’s the maths working for us.
