Dutch bet

2:30 Lingfield

Advised bet:

1 Point WIn - ONENIGHTINLISBON @ 4.1
1 Point Win - CASABLANCA MINX @ 5.2

RESULT: http://horses.sportinglife.com/Full_Results/0,12493,254242,00.html

A loss of 2 points as Paradise Dancer won the race. The fav was beaten in 3rd, Onenightinlisbon was 2nd and Casablanca Mix 4th. The winner was actually the first horse I ruled out of the race, thats the way it goes sometimes.

oh dear, most people who have two picks in a four horse race could find the winner..... That was somewhat embarrassing old chap.

Its not embarrassing at all. The winner was a maiden after 9 races. She had been running over 10f so I expected the drop down to 1 mile to meen she would be outpaced. The winner ran about 25 l/b below form last time so I took the view she was out of form. The trainer has been out of form and has had just 1 winner since 6th October.
I ruled the horse out and I ruled the favourite out and went with the two I thought the race lied between.

As I said not in the slightest bit embarrassed Baker. You win some you lose some, I lost that one.

Let's hope you don't lose on the next one too, although I suspect you might...

If I lose I lose, Long term profit is the aim, one day or one race means nothing. You sound like a bit of a mug dear chap.

Baker you mug. The Brig made over a 100 points profit in Jan and is in profit today and on the month. So what if he lost that bet. Tipsters who win every race simply dont exist you muggins.
