[WEIGHTWATCHER]

Morning all.

Unfortunately on a day of very little action Spasiba ran right up to it's quoted odds of 50/1 yesterday (never involved, pulled up) and the proven class horse in the race The Yellow Clay hosed up comfortably. Can always handle my horses getting whacked at big prices (especially when only small stakes) but it's the ones at 5/2 or less that lose can sting sometimes.

Only Ayr left for jumps fans today and try as I may to find a bet for today, regretfully the money will have to stay in the wallet for another day until the action picks up.  

It is very frustrating but whenever I put up a selection I like to feel it has some sort of chance, at least in my eyes anyway. 

Not sure Hereford (if it survives, currently flooded!) will provide a bet tomorrow either so will be looking at reserve meeting Cagnes Sur Mer in France for any possible wager. Just to say really looking forward to next weekend's racing (providing weather plays ball) which will feature one of my favourite races the Lanzarote Handicap Hurdle at Kempton. Will look at entries today and may be posting an ante post selection or two once I have analysed the allotted weights tomorrow.

The very best of luck to anyone who plays today, you are braver men than me.
