Small loss on the day........

with little damage done, my only winner courtesy of VSR coming from Sedgefield. Cheltenham brought little joy, i wanted to lay both Cousin Vinny and Binocular on a point of value, Cousin Vinny a class horse but had a young jockey on top, fell/unseated last outing and was subject to a downbeat report after travelling over whilst Binocular for me was just too short on last season evidence when second, in fact i was impressed with Binoculars run today in defeat and was both surprised and impressed by the way he stayed on up the hill. Crack Away Jack for Isiris followers was a case of near but so far, i was not part of the Autum gamble at all rates from 33/1 and to missout on a payout was abitter pill to take. In our Raceroom i was called all names under sun from 1 mile out after telling all that could be bothered to listen (just Rosemary the tea lady !!) that Wichita Lineman would stay on to lead and take the prize, again i did nothing mainly due to the boss sitting next to me watching me like a hawk asi managed the liabilities.

The William Hill Trophy win for ...............oh yes there was a horse involved but you would hardly be aware of that on C4 !!!, Yes AP is the top of his game, but today the horse in my opinion was not given enough credit, a great ride by the master but Glen Campbells horse certainly earnt his polos today !!!
