PERSONAL TRADING
the deciding test started in durban today between south africa and a injury hit west indies side , i really wanted to side with the home side at 1.45/1.48 but after reports of a under prepared pitch after some poor recent weather i was concerned that the windies would win the toss , bowl and many early inroads into the south african batting , the reverse happened in fact with the windies skittled out cheaply , i had layed the draw for £100 @ 4.3 and by mid morning the draw was trading around 30 .
perhaps its my upbringing in the bookmaking world but i love taking on a short fav on heavy/soft ground and especially after the horse has had a long lay off , celestial gold is the horse in question , surely he wont be knocked about on his comeback race , march is his target not a novice hurdle at hereford in january . so i left a few orders to lay this one , and as the tapes went up i had the position of laying celestial gold for £170 @ 1.76 , for 2/3 of the race he travelled well enough but as they came off the top bend he was knowhere to be seen , hopefully it was just a lack of fitness , but my day ended on that note .
daily p/l +£162.69
