    14 of my last 29 bets have come 2nd a few weeks ago, beat that Cav!. Would have been thousands in profit, it does turn mate trust me and I never thought it would – probally the worst feeling a punter can have.

    Chin up fella!

    Can’t believe I had the winner, how on earth did he hold on :shock:

    Great ride by Gibbons though.

    Chin up fella.

    Hopefully you weren’t on the wrong end of mighty mittens himself on Yashrid at Ripon the other day.

    Keep the chin up, reminds me of a spell a couple of years ago in the height of summer when I couldn’t buy a winner, a spell of 3 from anout 11 bets got beaten at 1.01, 1.01 and 1.03.

    Everyone who gambles has been there. I spent a lot of time evaluating the type of horse that was beating mine into second place.

    I wish my seconds had been at 14/1 though, wouldn’t have been worried at all. :D

    I saw that race, didn’t see the photo print though.

    Was :shock: they called Yashrid and Robinson the winner.

    This could end up a very voluminous thread! Have to admit I’ve had more seconds than winners myself recently.

    Anyone got the photo-finish pic. Its not available from Racetech – they don’t do Rippon :roll:

    Backing two runners is the relentless pursuit of value. Backing each way is a shortcut to the poor house. Only 7% make a long term profit.

    Luck evens itself out.

    If your up there knocking on the door consistently then inevitably you will have days when everything just falls into place.

    Although i know it doesnt seem like that! Had 4 seconds from 6 the other day myself.

    Still id rather have a load of seconds than them all being miserably tailed off.

    I may have stumbled on a cure. Back the stable 2nd string when they have a favourite engaged. If that fails try a second favourite. :lol:
