BEST of the BETS

Thanks Malcolm, Stevie.

Obee Jo (14/1 SP) finished only 8th.

Enjoyed watching that.

Good luck Mole. I liked this one too, dropping into a 0-75 for first time in his career and looks well handicapped even on last year's form. Not won for over 2 years though that's why I left it alone.

Thanks Malcolm.

De Bruyne (11/4 SP) only 4th. Chose wrong again as other one on shortlist, Swiss Star, wins after drifting to a nice price.

Thanks Malcolm and Stevie

Storm Venture (12/1 SP) was no good, finished one from last.

Thanks Ronnie.

I chose wrong again, the danger Golden West wins. My bet Sea The Dream only 3rd after big drift on the exchange just before the off, price almost doubling in one minute.

Thanks Malcolm

Still Standing never moved out of last place, coming home in his own time.

Again not an easy decision, it never is. My options today were to back this one to win or back Jackson Lamb for a place

Made the wrong choice, Pinky nowhere, Jackson Lamb 2nd at place price of over 6/1.

Thanks Malcolm.

Antiphon ran very well to finish 3rd. BSP (3.63) was only slightly better than early 4TP price, profit of 2.58 pts. I should probably stop now as after 4 bets I still have 100% record this month lol.

Note: going was changed to good to soft at 6:45 PM

Thanks Malcolm.

You Oughta Know won well enough, shame it ended up such a short price. Just a small profit of 0.44 pt, overall happy with how Galway festival went for me 3 from 3.

Just seen Aurora Vega is now a non runner and You Oughta Know is only 4/9.

Thanks everyone.

No bet for me today.

Captain Maverick (10/3 SP) wins narrowly from Aafoor (7/1) despite a big drift, pair drew clear of the rest. No I didn't put anything on forecast unfortunately, which paid over 26/1 but happy with 2.25 pts profit at BOG.

Well done, Stevie.

Thanks everyone.

Nice to start the month with a winner, Livio Milo won at SP of 5/2

Thanks, Malcolm.

Today's bet number should have read 92 for the year, not 91. Black Friday placed 3rd but there was a big Rule 4 of 25p in £ on EP, still it worked out slightly better than SP of 4/1 for more or less break even day, just a very small loss of 1/100th of a point.

It rounds off a very disappointing month with just 4 winning bets out of 19 for month's loss of 6.76 pts, it could have been worse if I didn't get a couple of winners last week.

YTD, it's +16.78 from 92 pts staked. Here's hoping for a better August.

Al Mubhir (11/2 SP, actually his exchange price more than doubled 2 minutes before the off) not at the races.

Thanks Peregrine
