York And Newmarket

Looking back briefly at yesterday and our selection at York, of course it was disappointing that we didn't back the winner. However, despite that we got a fair bit right with our shortlist providing the 1st, 3rd and 4th. We think the way we staked our bet was correct as well. Staking as we did ensured the loss was only ever going to be the minimum 1 point and we were happy to take the risk. In future there will be more of a mixture of win, split stake and each way bets than there has been in the past. We believe that will help us to maximise profits, if ever we find another winner!

Some good racing on offer today. The second day of the York meeting throws up the Dante Stakes as the highlight. For us there's no bet this afternoon but every chance that we will be getting involved this evening at Newmarket. We've identified a race in which we believe there are valid reasons for taking on one or two at the front of the market. We just want to be sure that conditions remain ideal before we get involved, so we'll hang fire for now. One of us will be back on here with an update later this evening by approximately 6pm.
