Its back, the greatest show on "turf" TV coverage is 2nd to none with RUK starting from the course at 0930 with interviews all day etc personally read the Racing Post & then watching a recording of the Morning line followed by study for tomorrows racing. Put my bets on for the races i hadnt covered around midday & then awaited the 1st race. didnt pick up anything in the 1st at all & barely had a shout although the winner was in my final 5. 2nd race & i looked to pick up some dosh from Imsingingtheblues or KK. I had an ew on Gauvain at big odds also. I didnt fancy Tatenan as it needed it softer but didnt think it would fall. I screamed at Graham lee to get KK over that last fence on a leg to start catching the leader. Unfortunately, it failed by about a shd in great finish. 3rd race ended up wiht 5 running for me & duly had the winner & the 3rd, great ride by McCoy after hitting the usual flat spot. Great tip from the trainer who made it his banker. 4th race & this was going to be when i collect by beating hendersons horse, only problem was we forgot about his other one! I had CH at 9's & 12's for the race & would have finished on Friday with a profit even if i failed to notch another winner. Screams of R-U-B-I-EEEEEEE still failed to get it home !! again only a nk behind in 2nd. Didnt bet in the 5th race but a great race to watch. The last & i failed to spot the Mullins made this his banker despite talking about it all day!!! Got taken in by the big prices on offer & failed to cash in. All in all, a losing day but a couple of places helped me in the systems thread & i manged to win on the distances also. So far yet so close!! Onto tomorrow!

Re: Diary of a PL Punter - please join in! Annying day really for me Copper Bleu just touched off for a place, then probably my biggest bet of the day Imsingingtheblues let me down Nenuphar Collognes got me a place in a tight finish, then had a small speculative bet on HArchibald which unsurprisingly did nowt Was stuck at work refreshing BBC Sport!! Just isn't the same...... Half day tomorrow though, going back to Worcester and can't wait to sample Cheltenham on Thurs and Fri Will look later for tomorrow
