As mentioned in
my weekly preview, this week was relatively quiet apart from the Open Golf.
Ben Linfoot had
2 bets on Saturday but alas neither came close to collecting, whilst Handicap
Snip just tipped one horse in a chase at Market Rasen, but despite showing up
early Trigger Nichol faded to 6th and hence there were no returns.
Northern Monkey’s
Wayne was on his stag weekend in Dublin but did tip a few before he left for
the Emerald Isle. Friday was good with Lake Volta finishing second, and Star of
Southwold running out a good winner. Saturday looked really promising, with a
single and double with Star of Southwold running onto Proschema in the big
staying handicap at Haydock at a juicy 9/1 ante post. Gambled into 7/2 favourite
on the day, things were looking good, but disappointingly the horses faded in
the final two furlongs. The Tin Man was also tipped ante post at 5/2, but he
doesn’t seem to be the horse of old and was unplaced. The final horse of the weekend
was Star Catcher in the Irish Oaks, andvunder a masterful Dettori ride, the Gosden
horse lead all the way to land a small each way punt.
Overall a small
loss on the horses this week.
Fortunately, my
golf tips did the business. I was on the winner Lowry, for top Irish and also
had a small bit on the win, and also had a lumpy winner on Finau, for top 20 and
outright.
This week =
+£300
Overall =
+£1800
