What a judge i am .............

NOT !!! On the way to work reading the post i noticed that Kayf Aramis was out in the 4.30 Chepstow, now this one had a tiring race 6 days earlier at Fontwell i remember the race well, just three runners in tiring ground, Kayf Aramis although jumping poorly throughout looked home n hosed after jumping the last and must have traded at near the basement price of 1.01 before Kayf Aramis legs turned to jelly and the Fontwell hill took its toll, as his stablemate Latainier swamped Kayf Aramis just before the line. His poor jumping coupled with the hard race 6 days earlier made this a big lay for today............... what a difference 6 days can make !!! never touched a twig(apart from second last !) as Kayf Aramis jumped really well and travelled kindly throughout to win cosily by 6l, luckily for me i refrained from laying as VSR put up the rather one paced (racing term for slow !!) Any Currency so i made a small loss on the race.

I managed to recoup this loss on the back of the Optimum message, although i did start off with a small loss on Presenting Copper but my days p/l was in credit after Andrew was keen to oppose the front 2 in the market Notabotheronme and Pretty Star as he felt the bookies could get a eresult, he was correct in his view as Victory Gunner took the prize.
