Tuesday 27th March 2007

The Sports Trader has only traded in 4 horse races, I greyhound race and 1 tennis match but with no losing trades it has been a reasonable day.

My first two trades were both small winning trades. My best horse race trading result was in the 16:20 at Sedgefield where I laid Silver Bow for £25 @ 3.25 and a further £10 @ 10.00 to finish with a profit of £35. I only had one more trade and that was a small winning one.

My race trading had ended with a profit of £52.

Unusually for me I decided to watch a few Greyhound races in the televised event from Hall Green. Many years ago I used to watch the dogs regularly at Rye House and more recently at Shawfield in Glasgow. Well tonight in the 19:40 race I had laid Meenala Babe for £124 @ 6.20 and had intended backing back for a profit but the price moved against me and after looking at the form figures I decided to hold on and ended up winning £124.

I had a very small trade in the Ferrer v Roddick tennis match to earn me £2.

My day had finished with a profit of £177.

Good Luck Ray. I know it's a bit slow at the moment, but don't get tempted into laying for the sake of playing. Good times just around the corner. :-).

Hi John,

I hope you are right, it's a little frustrating at the moment. I see you had a very good day yesterday, well done and good luck.

Hi Neil,

I do trade cricket on occassions but always give preference to horse racing. I intended to trade on the match last night but rain stopped play.
