although Arsenal won, at least i profited from it, although it was a close run thing in the Rugby, what a brilliant occasion in Cardiff, and as i get older i could see Rugby challenging Football as my second favourite sport, there is no trouble on the terraces, both sets of fans enjoy a pint together before the match and there is little cynical play, spitting and diving !!
On a punting front i was a little frustrated in the morning, it was relatively quiet but the sharks were out in force for two horses Be Brief 3.45 Haydock 11/2 - 5/1 but a NR and Ratchcor 4.30 Bangor @ 14/1 but i could not avail myself of anything better than 10/1, next time i looked it was a under pressure 8/1 shot !! Even this would have been value as Rathcor who finished 3rd returned a 4/1 fav.
Another horse we were fending off was Legislate in the last at Lingfield, a dodgy ew race with a odds on fav in the form of Jesse James, Legislate was the subject of decent EW interest and i took the decision to offer minimal EW support for Legislate, instead offering full win and half a place................talk about poacher turned gamekeeper !!! A well connected customer made me fully aware that this was a decent EW bet and as he drifted on the shows i managed to get £186 ew on £100 ew @ 7/2 and £86 ew @ 4/1. I was happy with this bet especially as late support came in, but i placed a hopeful trade to lay £200 @ 2.20 in running, this was matched as Legislate battled on gamely inside the last to fend off Jesse James and give me a most welcome little touch.
