Got out of jail, with the last throw of the dice today.....

thanks to the well primed and supported Mujma in the last at Lingfield, backed from an early price of 16/1 to an sp of 11/2. Shrewdies came on early doors and all the right faces in Newmarket were getting on, so i followed them in with a score ew @ 12/1. This win made up for some earlier reverses, the first of which was backing the weak in the market Fiftyonefiftyone in a match bet with Fistral beach and then the OPTIMUM advised Oh Braga in the 3.50 Newbury, again the market did not inspire confidence as the selection drifted from 6/4 to 5/2, before a sp of 9/4 was returned. Well after the first couple of fences i would not have taken 33/1 as he made early blunders and ballooned the 3rd as if he was at Olympia jumping the puissance !! But then his jumping improved and got into a nice rhythem and in my book was travelling just as well as the eventual winner ............... when he knuckled on landing and fell, although he jumped the fence well, so i needed a fightback and thankfully Mujma provided it.
