Good morning...
Well...
Even though only one of our four Diamonds and Gold selections won...
It was a good day for us and we were almost blindly profitable to ISP.
No one expects a ratings service to be blindly profitable.
So, it's kind of nice when we come close.
Diamonds and Gold
We had four selections yesterday...

Something to make you smile...
Boris Johnson goes on a state visit to Israel . While he is on a tour of Jerusalem he suffers a heart attack and passes away. The undertaker tells the British Diplomats accompanying him, 'You can have him shipped home for £5,000,000, or you can bury him here, in the Holy Land , for just £100.'
The British Diplomats go into a corner and discuss for a minute. They come back to the undertaker and tell him they want Boris shipped home.
The undertaker is puzzled and asks, 'Why would you spend £5,000,000 to ship him home, when it would be wonderful to be buried here and you would spend only £100? With the money you save you could help pay back some of the deficit, help pay for the Olympic Games or help the elderly'.
The British Diplomats replied, 'Long ago a man died here, was buried here, and three days later he rose from the dead. We just can't take the risk.'
Have a great day's racing!
As always...
My kindest regards
