The Sports Trader has finished the week in the same mode as the last few days, a little disappointing but in profit. I traded in 13 horse races, 1 football match and 1 golf tournament.
My first trade was my best trade of the day and it was in the 14:00 at Southwell. I backed Bronson F'sure for £5 @ 2.90 and then for £231 @ 2.00. I laid off £236 @ 1.68 and greened up a little with a lay of £23 @ 1.20 to result in a profit of £76.
My next trade was in the 14:10 at Taunton where I laid Cockatoo for £30 @ 4.60 and backed back £10 @ 8.00 to result in a profit of £20. I followed this with a small winning trade.
In the 14:40 at Taunton I laid Remember Ramon for £46 @ 3.00 to result in a profit of £46. Next I had two more small winning trades.
In the 15:30 at Southwell I laid Golden Child for £150 @ 2.28 and backed back £100 @ 2.50. Later I backed again for £25 @ 2.90. In the closing stages I laid him for £17 @ 5.00 and backed back £5 @ 8.50 to result in a profit of £35. I followed this with another small winning trade.
My first loss of the day came in the 15:55 at The Curragh where I backed La Conquistadora for £66 @ 2.00 when contesting the lead in the latter stages of the race. I did put up a lay to cover this liability but did not get matched and therefore lost £66. Next was a small winning trade.
In the 17:10 at Taunton I backed Team Chaser for £68 @ 2.85 and proceeded to lay off @ 2.26 for £68. Later I laid a further £20 @ 1.20 to partially green-up my position and to result in a profit of £37.
My worst result of the day was also my last horse trade of the day. It was in the 17:20 at Downpatrick where I laid Another Biffo for £22 @ 6.00 before backing back £8 @ 8.00. Later I backed Leney Dow Jones for £40 @ 1.50 to result in a loss of £98.
My horse trading had finished with a profit of £76.
I had a small trade in the Milton Keynes Dons v Walsall football match where I backed the draw for £60 @ 1.60 before laying off @ 1.52 to leave a profit of £5.
In the CA Golf Championship in Miami I backed Brett Wetterich to win in the without Woods market for £15 @ 1.35 and laid V J Singh in the same market for £10 @ 15.00 to result in a profit of £15.
My day had finished with a total profit of £96. This brought another profitable week to close with a profit of £1193.
Well done Ray, Another solid week for you.
I had a quiet week due to the internationals and taking advantage of the last of the snow to go skiing over the weekend.
I expect it will be quiet for me until Aintree and the start of the evening racing.
Football +£117 Racing +£98 Greyhound racing -£8
Have a good week
