The Sports Trader ended another very quiet day with a loss after trading on just 5 horse races and 1 cricket match.
My day start in the worst possible way with a sizable loss as I had backed Thought Is Free for £176 @ 1.72, in the 14:10 at Lingfield, whilst in the lead and looking comfortable. She was headed with a furlong to go and I could not trade out so I lost £176.
In the 15:00 at Beverley I laid Miss Daawe for £86 @ 10.00 to result in a profit of £86.
Next came my second and last loss of the day as I backed Splendid Susie for £137 @ 2.12, in the 15:45 at Galway, again as she was leading but only to see her headed inside the final furlong, this time to cost me £137.
In the 16:10 at Lingfield I backed Missit for £163 @ 2.10 and then laid off @ 1.30 to result in a profit of £130.
My final race trade of the day was in the 18:20 at Galway where I laid Vinatieri for £10 @ 8.50 to result in a profit of £10.
My race trading had finished with a loss of £87.
In the evening I traded on the South Africa v West Indies Twenty20 cricket match. I started off backing the West Indies for £217 @ 2.45 and laying this all off at an average price of 2.25. Towards the end of the game I started to lay the West Indies and managed to end up with a profit of £75.
My day had therefore finished with a small loss of £12.
