An apology is needed first as I did not update my blog last night. The reason being that my three youngest children where staying with their mother for the first time since we separated, last night, and my eldest daughter, Jenny, asked if I would like to go into Glasgow with her and some friends, so I decided to go out and did not get back until 4:00am. Then with no children to get up for, I had a brilliant lay in this morning.
My day consisted of 18 races traded with just one losing trade although it was a big loser. I started with the 13:25 at Sandown and laid Sir Rique for £20 @ 12.00 to get the day off to a profit of £20. Next was my only losing trade and here in the 13:25 at Stratford I backed Master Eddy for £233 @ 1.70 whilst in the final furlong and looking set to win. I also backed Tanners Court for £17 @ 4.50 before laying off at 3.25. This left me with a loss of £214 on the race.
In the 13:50 at Wetherby I started with a lay on Allistthebarrista for £34 @ 3.00 before backing back @ 3.50. I later laid him for £45 @ 60.00 to give me a profit of £52. Next I had 4 small but profitable trades.
My next race was the 14:35 at Stratford and started with a back on Good Spirit of £180 @ 1.70 before laying off @ 1.55. I then backed him for £39 @ 1.60 and laid off @ 1.40 to leave me with a profit of £35. In the 14:40 at Sandown I backed New Little Bric for £42 @ 1.80 and a further £70 @ 1.86 before laying off £112 @ 1.70 then backing him again for £81 @ 1.05 to give me a profit of £19.
My next race was the 15:15 at Sandown and here I backed Taranis for £14 @ 3.00 and laid Royals Darling for £2 @ 6.00 to give me a profit of £30. Next up was the 15:30 at Wetherby where I laid Blue Flash for £50 @ 6.60 before backing him for £20 @11.60 and for £5 @ 6.20 to leave me with a profit of £25.
In the 15:35 at Fairyhouse I backed Stoneraker for £197 @ 1.10 close to the line for a profit of £20. I then had 6 small, profitable lays to finish my racing day with a profit of £50.
I did have just one trade in the Middlesbrough v Arsenal match and this was in the final 30 seconds of extra time where I backed under 2.5 goals for £388 @ 1.07 to give me a profit of £26.
My day had finished much earlier than I had anticipated it would due to going out at night and I finished with a profit on the day of £76.
