ROYAL HILARITY LANDS AN OPTIMUM GAMBLE ........

Advised at 5/1 with Ladbrokes and a few others, the price contracted to 4/1 and this was available up until the first show where sustained support meant that the selection was sent off the 9/4 fav, i must admit that i was totally unaware of the change in colours and with phones going off all over the place the audio could hardly be heard, so i was following Justabout in the gloom only because of the yellow sleeves............ a glimpse at the i/r two out was a welcome surprise, and the selection from OPTIMUM stayed on well to win by 15lengths. The market thesedays seem to an increasingly important indicator to a horses well being and chance, Dave Nevision in his most recent book "A Gamblers Diary" sites positive market sentiment as one of the most important factors when having a bet today, and the reverse equally important when deciding to swerve a possible bet on a drifting selection, the selection from VSR was PSI in the 2.20 Folk who failed to build on his promising debut and drifted from an opening show of 7/2 out to 13/2 ............... but Charlotte Grey in the 3.00 Southwell drifted like the proverbial barge 5/2 out to 11/1 !!! and blew the drifters never win theory right out of the water, i only hope the early morning backers were on best odds guaranteed !!!
So a nice day to get the £10kchallenge back on track !!
