I am fond of the Running Double as a strategy. You can bet it on most TABs these days.There are times when I know a horse in the second leg will be fancied, and when I agree with the assessment. Sometimes I can try to lock up a decent bet by taking two or three in the previous race, into my own pick. It's always worth thinking about, but of course the choices in that first leg need to be made very carefully. Otherwise it can be more profitable just to back the horse you like in the second leg st

And there's no point in starting your Running Doubles with the one you really like, as the chances are everyone will be on it. You're hoping that it won't be in everyone's sights, on their radar if you like, when there's another race to be decided first.
It's a forgotten art, the Running Double. And some of the "overs" are quite surprising.
Keep an eye on it.
