an apt end to the flat season ............

well done to both seb & jamie , cant believe seb is riding tonight at wolver , a titantic tussle between the two personally i wanted seb to win it but sharing the title in the circumstances seems to me appropriate .
pleased to see the back of this week totally forgetable and uninspiring , small loss but with a lot of uncompetitive small fields only minimal activity , i have no problem with that as i prefer to be selective but the week to me struggled to get off the ground for some reason , but something to look fwd to nextweek with the cheltenham paddy power meeting .
a loss of just over a monkey on the day from my three bets that were ................

saturday

ISIRIS

HORSE A £75 ew @ 8/1 3rd +£45

OPTIMUM RACING

3.25 win bowleaze £150 ew @ 10/1 unpld -£300

PERSONAL TRADING

optimum was interested in joe lively @ 2/1 i put up an order to back him £100 @ 3.00 , this was matched second and no excuses beaten fair n square , before this though i had a frustrating race at sandown to endure , mh was interested in lemon silk in the 1.55 not strong enough for the account the horse was available at 7/1 but when i looked it was a touch higher on the exchanges so i decided to wait ................ mistake , next time i looked 7/1 was a distant dream , so i sat on my hands and watched the race , only to see lemon silk win cosily .......... ouch !!!
my next bet was in the optimum account race , opt were keen to oppose abragante , i no longer lay in the win mkt but i layed £250 @ 1.6 in the place , an easy winner and a loss of £250 on the day .
