Good morning...
Well...
Even though our three Diamonds and Gold selections let us down,
The ratings were superb on with an overall strike rate (for the top rated horse) of 34.09%
But, what's more...
We had some incredible prices!
And some outrageous forecasts!
Musselburgh - 15:00 - the forecast paid £35.49 to a £1 stake.
Musselburgh - 15:30 - the forecast paid £27.86 to a £1 stake.
Musselburgh - 16:30 - the forecast paid £51.56 to a £1 stake.
Bath - 18:10 - the forecast paid £15.57 to a £1 stake.
Kempton (AW) - 18:50 - the forecast paid £29.97 to a £1 stake.
Bath - 20:10 - - the forecast paid £5.24 to a £1 stake.
Had you blindly done the forecast in every race (not something that I would advise, mind you) you would have had £165.69 returned to your £44 in stakes.

Something to make you smile...
Ralph and Edna were both patients in a mental hospital.
One day...
While they were walking past the hospital swimming pool, Ralph suddenly jumped into the deep end.
He sank to the bottom of the pool and stayed there.
Edna promptly jumped in to save him.
She swam to the bottom and pulled him out.
When the Head Nurse Director became aware of Edna's heroic act, she immediately ordered her to be discharged from the hospital as she now considered her to be mentally stable.
When she went to tell Edna the news, she said, "Edna, I have good news and bad news. The good news is you are being discharged since you were able to rationally respond to a crisis by jumping in and saving the life of the person you love.
I have concluded that your act displays sound mindedness.
The bad news is, Ralph hung himself in the bathroom with his bathrobe belt right after you saved him... I am so sorry... but he is dead."
Edna replied... "He did not hang himself,
I put him there to dry."
"How soon can I go home?"
Have a great day's racing!
As always...
My kindest regards
