SimpleBet Tuesday

Some awful ground and conditions but we had one small account bet.

Croan Rock, 1.5pt e/w @ 12/1 (sent out at 14/1 but that only lasted 10 minutes) was a very interesting runner today.
An expensive purchase after a win in a point to point in Ireland he was expected to be suited by the very soft going.
The plan was to use his stamina to come from off the pace.

He was very well supported, right down to 6/1 by th off time.

Come race time there was very little early pace and our selection was a bit too keen, running right up with the pace.
He took second place with three to jump and looked to be set for the place money at the very least.
However, he tired badly from there and could only manage 6th place despite still being in with a shout of 3rd when jumping the last.

Some great racing to look forward to towards the end of the week.
We have a few lined up although some more horrendous weather is forecast on Thursday so we will play things by ear.
