Blank Wednesday

Disappointing day today with two account bets, both losing.

First up we had Tell Halaf 3pt win @ 2/1 (best odds guaranteed meant 5/2)
He was thought to be very well handicapped today but ruined all chances by pulling much too hard. He then hung left and although he started to make some ground up with 3 furlongs to go he never really looked like winning and faded back into 5th.
The feeling is that he will be tried in headgear next time out but probably won't carry our money.

Over at Kempton we had Kings Song 3pt win @ 9/4.
He was backed right down to 13/8 and travelled very well, looking the winner 2 furlongs from home. From there the race became very crowded and muddled as often happens at Kempton but he was expected to be good enough to kick clear from the position he was in so no excuses.

Elsewhere there was a good word for Ella. She ran a good race but again was too keen and could only finish second.

Our ante post bet for the National, Comply Or Die has shortened in to 16/1 today after Timmy Murphy decided to stick with him as his ride.

Aintree starts tomorrow and we will almost certainly have at least one account bet.
