Poor draw = no luck in running

One account bet for us today and fortunately we held back on our staking.

Brave Prospector, 2pt e/w @ 7/1 (B.O.G. paid 10/1) has been working supremely well at home and is a winner waiting to happen.
Unfortunately he had the worst of the draw today and needed to find a way through.

George Baker is one of the best jockeys at riding this track and connections knew the only option was to drop the horse out at the back and hope for luck in running as he tried to weave his way through.

Unfortunately he had no such luck, getting consistently blocked at he looked for an angle out with 3 furlongs to go.
There is no way of telling where he would have finished with a clear run but he is a lot better than this run. One for the notebook.

We have around 5 bets we are waiting for before Christmas.
Hopefully the forecast cold snap will fail to materialise and racing will go ahead as planned.
