Day 2 @ Chelts

A much better day today at a more sudbued Cheltenham than yesterday.

We had two account bets today.
1.55 Marius Maximus, 2pt win @ 9/2 who was very disappointing. This horse works well at home but just fails to put it in on the track. He was backed right into 10/3 and traded 5/4 after just two furlongs but pretty much faded from then on!
He is much better than this and it will click at some point but we won't be on until he has won at least one race.

2.05 Peddlers Cross, 2pt e/w at 7/1 was a nice, welcome winner.
He always travelled well and was surprisingly easy to back in running - available at 6/1 with 5 furlongs to run, going easily - and turned out a decent winner.
Our message was that he was yet to be stretched and improving all the time and it was spot on.

Elsewhere, we thought we had landed a nice ante post bet in the RSA with Long Run (2pt e/w @ 6/1)
He looked to be going best 3 out but we can't argue with the winner , Weapons Amnesty, who was impressive. Long Run held on for 3rd to get the each way money though.

Most impressive performance of the day by far was in the last though.
Cue Card looked an absolute class act winning with ease even though he was pretty keen early. There was some trouble in the race but the winner was absolute different class.
We were close to an account bet on Tavern Times and he was possibly unlucky to finish only 4th.
Cue Card must be favourite for the Supreme Novices next year surely?

All in all, a nice profit on the day.
We are now just over 30 points in profit for March.

We have at least one account bet tomorrow.
