WHAT A DISASTER ....................

Mark gave a negative for Nebraska City in the sedge 1.35 citing his thoughts that he is more of a speed horse who takes a keen hold in his races and suggested that he doubted he would see the trip out in such testing conditions ,my favoured play on the race was to take £100 out of him in the win market and £50 in the place market this would give me a liability of just over £500 , i started to trade the horse laying & backing it at between 5.4/5.9 everything was going swimmingly as i had layed the horse for £200 at a average of 5.3 in the win mkt and £130 at 2.18 in the place mkt and the horse was on the drift , happy days then it all went pearshaped, downstairs there was a commotion and had a mini disaster involving a plant , water and the tv . Wont go into the boring details i had it in my head that the race was off at 1.40 so when i returned at 1.38 nebraska was leading and trading at 2.12 , so i had a liability of £500 greater than i wanted trading at 2.12 and i need a new tv .................. it won , gonna need a miracle to turn today round .
