The Equaliser

You think that's bad news, they don't give me BOG at all. When I enquired as to why this was so, they told me that Bet365 frequently review policies in line with responsible gambling and that I had been excluded from their BOG offer. I have never had more than £200 deposited with them and my bets have always been small. I told them that I was a responsible gambler and wished to appeal, but they just would not discuss the matter further. I think I may have got an opening deal of £100 for joining in the good old days and they have been trying to get their own back on me ever since. This is why I now bet with Betfred. Their loss.;

Haha, all without Brian Hughes whose only mistake was to lift his whip above should height with just one stroke. Good luck with your selections today; you work very hard on these for us all

This makes my MTD now +10.87 and YTD -84.40. Bye bye Cheltneham

Along with Stage Star in the first this gave me a return of 10.35 pts making a 0.65 loss on a disappointing day. At least I didn't have £10k on Shishkin as some poor soul did at the track. Amazing how one mistake can cost a horse a race when it is at short odds. My MTD is now +17.54 and YTD -77.73. I thought it was going to be tough today but didn't realise that my favourites would all lose

RESULTS UPDATE Two good winners today meant that I ended up with a profit of 9.10. Many thanks to @richard-westwoodfor highlighting Langer Dan, I chose the Skelton horse over the Hobbs horse but cursed myself for not backing both as Camprond looked all over a winner near the end of the race. This makes my MTD +18.19 and my YTD -77.08. This looks like a first for me being in front at the Cheltenham Festival. Let's hope I can continue to make a profit.

Fantastic ratings Richard. For a minute there I was thinking Oh No I've backed the wrong horse as Camprond looked almost a certainty. Strange how the computer picked them when as you said neither have been in form. Very well done once again 😀
