Happy Easter to you all, I hope you have all had a good day and managed to watch plenty of sport. I spent all morning with my three youngest children and helping them to find then eat their eggs. I ended up trading in 13 horse races and The US Masters golf tournament and had no losing trades.
My first 3 trades where all small winning ones. So my first significant result was in the 14:40 at Towcester where I laid Aston for £61 @ 7.00 before backing back £5 @ 8.00, £10 @ 10.00 and £17 @ 15.00 to leave me with a profit of £28.
In the 14:45 at Fairyhouse I laid Lounaos for £182 @ 4.70 and then backed back £69 @ 5.00 and £5 @ 7.20 to result in a profit of £109. I followed this with another small winning trade.
My next trade was in the 15:15 at Fairyhouse where I laid Montana Bay for £55 @ 5.00 and backed the winner, Aitmatov for £61 @ 1.30 to result in a profit of £73.
The best result of the day for me was in the 16:30 at Plumpton where I started with a lay of Back In Business for £98 @ 2.00 before backing back £80 @ 2.50. I then laid him again for £413 @ 2.42 and proceeded to back back at 3.00 for £84 and £4 @ 2.31 before he was hampered, and it became apparent he could not win, to result in a profit of £343.
My next 4 trades where all small winning ones. My last racing trade of the day was in the 17:30 at Plumpton where I laid Just Supposin for £7 @ 13.50 before backing back £1 @ 76.00. I also laid Just Touch Wood for £2 @ 250.00 when well beaten and on the run in I backed Liakoura for ££300 @ 1.02 to result in a profit of £14.
My race trading had finished with a profit of £590.
I wanted to watch both the England v Australia World Cup match and The US Masters at Augusta. I decided to watch the golf as with a fairly tight leader board I thought I would have more chance of some decent trading opportunities.
I had a total of 30 trades with a maximum exposure of £100 whilst the final 8 holes where being played. I always find the golf a very good trading event as the liquidity is good and there is plenty of movement in the odds. I ended up with an all green position with a profit of £73 whoever won.
My day had finished with a profit of £663.
It has been a fairly slow week but I have resisted the temptation to force trades and my patience was rewarded with today's result which helped me to a final profit on the week of £1951.
