Monday November 4th

A bit of an excessive weekend on all fronts, too much alcohol, too much sport, and too much punting. Maybe it was the stress of changing jobs but it got a bit too much.


It was a heavy punting few days with some good and some poor results. The first day of the Breeders Cup was superb with the nap of the meeting for me Lady Eli cruising home at 5/2, when I'd backed it with the English bookies at 11/2. On the Saturday Ben Linfoot had 3 selections with Ulk Du Lin romping home at an early 8/1. That was as good as it got though with pretty mediocre results for the rest of the weekend. In hindsight I think I just had too many bets. Overall I probably made a small profit but it was nothing to shout out about.


This week I am starting my new job, so punting will take a bit of a back seat until I settle into the new regime. I'll be backing any Cheltenham ante post bets tonight, and I really fancy Admire Rakti for the Melbourne Cup early on Tuesday morning. The only other event I might look at would be the World Golf Championship, and perhaps the Grand Slam of Darts. I'll certainly be taking a break from horse racing until the Paddy Power at Cheltenham which starts the week after next.
