It's day 2 of Tix Week, woohoo! Today we're looking at the ABCX framework, one of the most common approaches for multi-race tote pool players. Before that, though, if you've not yet taken a look at yesterday's video post, you'll find that here. It covers the most simple way to play Tix (choose budget, choose […]
This week on geegeez, I'll be highlighting the different playing modes on Tix, our tote multi-race staking software. By the end of the week, you'll know about Simple, ABCX, and Pro - and when to use each scenario. To get started with Tix, you'll need a tote account. If you don't currently have one, you […]
At the end of a busy week which has already featured a major sectional data enhancement to the Full Form tab, we now unleash a raft of small changes designed to make your life easier. Let's crack on with them... Enhanced Tracker buttons on the racecard Historically, there was a cumbersome process whereby you could […]
If you play the placepot (or jackpot, quadpot or any other multi-race pool bet), you'll know the joys and frustrations of the bet. On the upside is the chance to cop a very tidy sum for a modest investment; flip the coin and you'll get back less than you laid out or, quite often, miss […]
As 2025 ticked into 2026, somewhat without fanfare we filled the gaps in our UK sectional data coverage by incorporating the British RMG (Racing TV) tracks. Thus, going forwards as well as two years backwards, we have a full picture of all completed UK runs for each horse. [That is to say, we do not […]
In this video post, I outline what's happening now and next on geegeez.co.uk, and beyond these shores. Specifically: - Geegeez Feature Upgrades - Australian Open AI Play - Tix... PLUS?! - Racehorse Syndicate Updates The geegeez feature updates are first up so feel free to skip the rest if it's not of interest to you. […]
Did you get any of those 'your year in review' thingies from online subscriptions? I did. My Spotify listening age is 67 apparently (don't play classical music if you want to be considered young and hip - who knew?), and I'm in the top 0.1% of global ChatGPT users - and probably the top 0.00001% […]
A short post, with some video content if you'd like it, to let you know that we'll be updating Query Tool today. We're adding some new input variables as well as a new output column. Details of those can be found in this recent post. Or in the videos below (first one is a general […]
From time to time, not very often, I buy a horse to syndicate among fellow racing fans and geegeez.co.uk readers. Last week was one such occasion and a few shares are available, more on that in a moment. But first, a little history on geegeez syndicates. Geegeez Syndicates I've been involved in racing syndicates since […]
It's getting darker earlier, and there's a distinct chill in the air this week. The turf flat season is a fading memory and close at hand now is the National Hunt season proper as well as a serious programme of all-weather racing. Both make for excellent punting! While it might seem like we've been quiet […]
Breeders' Cup 2025 in beautiful Del Mar, sunny California (obligatory adjectives) whizzed by over the weekend, a back-loaded two-day event featuring 14 Championship races, nine of them on the Saturday, and loads of international interest. What follows is a combination of my race thoughts, betting outcomes and lessons learned from one of the toughest wagering […]
It wasn’t just at Coolmore Australia or the parent company’s headquarters in Co Tipperary that news of Wootton Bassett’s demise brought abject misery and frustration just as last week’s offering here hit the laptops, writes Tony Stafford. For the Laundry Cottage Stud Farm, in Hertfordshire, 35 miles up the A1 from Central London, it ended […]
I'm back, with my annual kickball preview that is as deserving of being digital chip paper as anything penned on these virtual pages. I sort of know a bit about racing, though it may not radiate from every stanza scribbled or every suggestion sunk; my grasp of the football form book is more tenuous - […]
This week we enjoy the 2025 renewal of the prestigious Qatar 'Glorious' Goodwood Festival on the rolling Sussex Downs. To finish in front at a festival meeting contested on such a quintessentially quirky track requires more than traditional 'which is the best horse' form study. Preparations for those serious about the week begin with homework […]
