Yet again bad luck played it's part with a faller at the second  last when sure to get a place! This is getting tiresome and surely it cannot continue, have i ran over a black cat?

The first race i backed in was another two horse bet and too be totally honest both where poor with neither getting involved in the race and both well beaten. Then a win bet on the well supported Patsy Finnegan who again was a major disappointment jumping badly at a few fences and never looking the winner.

Original Prankster would have been placed when taking a heavy fall when certain to be placed and give me a decent return for my E/W bet, but it was not too be and the race goes in the history books as another loser, then a terrible run followed from another well backed horse Plein Pouvoir who again never threatened to win the race.

My last bet was Cheltenian who was again popular with punters and i got on early, the sp was very short but he travelled well and there was only ever going to be one challenger who he just got the better of, this was a little consolation to round off a bad day.
