Given the decent winning position on the week, some may accuse me of playing with "house money" given the ambitious 28 points outlay today. However Sandown, Chester and Beverley are three of my favourite punting tracks so to be faced with all three in one day was too much to resist!
We started with two seconds which was no good at all and then Bronze Beau made all @ 14/1 to take the pressure off (the other selection in the race finishing second). Rule four (20p) deductions means settlement was @ 11.2/1.
In the 16:25S Gown went off at 14/1 which surprised me but the price was generous partly because a well know web tipping company put up the eventual third in the race, which of course attracted market support. Lilyfire came second, so the recommended straight forecast was down but I was happy to settle for a 14/1 winner! (BOG). Good ride from RLM.
In the 17:10C Space Artist was the one of the two selections that attracted support and the market proved correct with Graham Lee just holing on in a close finish. Although 9/1 was the recommended price we are paid out 8.1/1 because of a 10p rule four deduction.
Total returns on the day 52.38 points for a profit of 24.38 and therefore around 75 on the week (will calculate exactly later). No horse bets tomorrow.
Tennis update: My 100/1 poke Simona Halep beats higher-ranked MaKiri 6-1 6-0 to cruise into the fourth round! (Now 16/1 Hills/Ladbrokes/Coral as I write).
