    Still down but got Ballyburn, El Fabiolo and Edwardstone (e/w), amongst others, today. If any two of those three come in, I’ll finish up for the week.

    Nicely up courtesy of free bets on the first two races, the State Man/Lossiemouth double and Lark In The Mornin.

    It will be a quiet day on the punting front today. I have a bit of 9/4 against Ballyburn and small antepost bets on American Mike and Giovinco, which I am happy to let ride against Fact To File. I also have Edwardstone each way at around 16/1.

    I will use a free bet in each of the handicaps with one small each way bet in each as well. I shan’t bother with the Cross Country (assuming it is on) and I will only have a token bet in the bumper if I am up on the day.

    I also have the next three legs of my Mullins odds on favourites accumulator.

    Slightly up, but I always do great on the Wednesday. Though it was only okay today.

    I’m even steven after 3 days with my anteposts so any gains tomorrow = a profit for the week so happy enough. A shame Sir Gino not able to strut his stuff to ‘superboost the piggy bank’.

    Still up after Day 3. Tuesday was good, Wednesday was moderately poor and today was OK.

    Friday is already off to a bad start with Sir Gino being a no show but I still have an antepost bet running on Salvator Mundi. He couldn’t win, could he?

    I also have antepost bets on High Class Hero in the Bartlett but not inspired by Patrick Mullins being on board.

    I have Fastorslow and The Real Whacker in the Gold Cup and Corack Rambler in the market without Galopin Des Champs.

    I will back two in the County and another in the Bartlett and that will probably be it. I doubt I will get involved in the last three races.

    Stakes will be kept small to ensure I finish the meeting ahead. 🙂

    Id say most years I do well these days, Ive learnt when to and not to. It helps enormously not drinking on course, well for me it does.

    Im in a good place, had a stonking Tuesday on track and off track at Southwell, Wednesday..well Fact to File at 14’s and 20’s AP amazing, I didnt cash out. Nabbed a good bit of the placepot as a laugh.
    Thursday, I just played at home with small multiples. No profit in that.
    Friday, pub day..note to ones self..DONT take the phone out and put all bets on in the morning.
    Good Luck to all tomorrow..Im on the ..lash

    Looking forward to May 3rd now..

    That GC t/c has got me back in profit , only 2 played in the finale but my Corach e.w ante post bets have given me a small profit , couple going onto national bets to with Stattler and Galvin , that x country race being canx might be be a godsend for me antepost
