SimpleBet Saturday

Two account bets for us today, both each way.

First up was Genki, 2pt e/w @ 11/2. B.O.G. paid 6/1.
This one is considered unlucky to have only won one race this season as he has been unlucky in running a couple of times and not had the best of draws.

He was pushed along at halfway but picked up very nicely to take the lead inside the final furlong.
Unfortunately for us, Bewitched came from out of the pack to pick up our horse inside the final 100 yards. Genki finished second, beaten just under a length.

Secondly we had Poets Place 2pt e/w @ 7/1
This horse was considered still very well handicapped. An unlucky loser last time out he was fancied to gain compensation here.
He was well supported down to 9/2 by off time.

He broke well and was up in the front rank for the first 3 furlongs but was then pushed along.
He faded close home finishing a disappointing 11th.

Maybe he was drawn on the wrong side as the winner came up the rails but more likely would be that he has had a hard season and just didn't run as well as expected.

Overall a 3 point loss on the day.

There will probably be a bet tomorrow but nothing certain at this stage.
