Tuesday 23rd October 2007

The Sports Trader had an unproductive day after trading on 12 horse races and 1 football match.

My day started with a small but profitable trade. Then I had the first of 3 losing trades in the 14:20 at Lingfield. I had backed Foreland Sands for £40 @ 2.50 when well clear of the field and coming round the final bend. He kept in front well into the final furlong but was eventually caught approaching the finishing line to cost me £40. I followed this with another small winning trade.

My best result of the day came next in the 15:10 at Exeter where I laid Thunder Child for £35 @ 30.00 and a further £13 @ 40.00 to result in a profit of £48. My next 3 race trades all resulted in small profits.

In the 16:05 at Fairyhouse I laid Stunt Man for £25 @ 10.00 before backing back £4 @ 12.00 to result in a profit of £21.

My second loss came in the 16:40 at Exeter where I backed Storm Applause for £140 @ 2.90 before laying off @ 2.65. Next I backed again for £100 @ 2.75 and began laying off but only managed to lay off £43, so I ended the race with a loss of £57. My next trade resulted in a small profit.

My final loss of the day came in the 17:05 at Fairyhouse where I laid Keelaghan for £25 @ 1.90 to lose me £22. I finished my race trading with a small profitable trade.

My race trading had resulted in a loss of £17.

I had decided to watch the Rangers v Barcelona football match in the evening. I had a few small trades on the under 2.5 goals market which resulted in a profit of £23.

My day had therefore ended with a small profit of just £6.
