Saturday wrap

What a result today. Thought I was massive odds-on to lose this week following a disastrous Weds/Thurs. But then, tackling the hardest race of the day - the 29-runner handicap at Ascot, we land the spoils with Galician winning at 33/1. Not only that but the other selection in the race finishes fifth to reward our ew bet which was intentionally struck with Paddy Power, one of the few bookmakers paying out on fifth place. Consequently the return on the race was 52.25 pts meaning 37.25 pts Saturday profit. This puts us around 10 points up since Monday with Ascot to follow again tomorrow.
