Crap



todays bets:

Double £50 - lost - £50

3.00 Duke Of Ormond £15 - lost - £15

today - £65                               bank + £409.35                      bank + £1409.35

The long losing run continues with only two bets, a single and a double with both losing.

The single win bet on Duke Of Ormond was my first bet and he seemed to jump the first few alright until a horse fell in front. I was telling myself that he should get away from the loose horse but every jump he seemed to be hampered by it then he had nothing left and went out with a whimper.

The first leg of the double was on York Glory who was one of  the best backed horses of the day and was 1/2 at post time, he was on the rails around the bend then brought wide, ran on well but far too late, the best horse in the race but another who lost through a desperate ride, the second leg has not run but will probably win easily!

Another sickener, it is infuriating to be beaten by jockey's incompetance when everybody can see what is happening around him, still another lesson to be learned, odds on equals no bet.
