It was good to see Henry Cecil win the Vodaphone Oaks at Epsom with Light Shift. I didn't manage to trade in the event but it was still the highlight of my day. I traded in just 12 horse races and 1 football match.
My first trade came in the 14:45 at Epsom where I laid Forroger for £82 @ 4.10 and backed back @ 4.30. Later in the race I laid Stotsfold for £15 @ 7.50 to result in a profit of £16. My next 4 race trades were all small winning trades.
In the 17:25 at Epsom I backed Vitznau for £200 @ 1.10 in the final 50 yards of the race to secure a profit of £20.
My first loss of the day came next in the 18:30 at Bath where I backed Lady Sandicliffe for £28 @ 2.36 but could not trade out to leave me with a loss of £28.
Next was the 18:50 at Goodwood where I laid Mymumsaysimthebest for £30 @ 20.00 and Barbarossa for £2 @ 19.00 to result in a profit of £32.
In the 18:50 at Down Royal I had my second and last loss of the day when I backed Dream Rainbow for £10 @ 4.30 to cost me £10. I followed this with a small winning trade.
The best result of my day came in the 20:10 at Tramore where I laid Gilt Benefit for £9 @ 50.00 and Super Kay for £25 @ 3.70 to result in a profit of £34. I finished my race trading with a small winning trade.
After racing I traded on the under 1.5 goals market on the International friendly between England and Brazil. I had backed the unders for £89 @ 1.81 and laid off @ 1.44. I had put up a lay to green up but the second goal came and I therefore finished the game all square.
My day had finished with a profit of £88.
