Results catch up

4 bets since we last blogged so a quick catch up.

On Tuesday we backed Secret Asset, 3pt win @ 5/2.
An impressive winner for us recently as an account bet this one fancied to follow up.
Unfortunately the rise in weights seemed too much for him as he didn't pick up as expected and could only finish 4th.

On Wednesday we had a bet in Ireland.
Skippers Brig, 2pt e/w @ 10/1 was expected to love the heavy going but never really travelled in the ground and was mid division throughout.
A disappointing run.

Today we had two account bets. Both ran well without winning.
Douryna, 3pt win @ 5/2 (B.O.G paid 3/1) was a faller for us when looking the likely winner last time out.
She had been given some time off the track to regain her confidence.
She was running a big race and looking a comfortable leader until a bad mistake with about 4 to jump. That seemed to affect her and she didn't jump well from there, fading back to finish 3rd.

Dream Esteem, 2pt win @ 13/2 (B.O.G paid 7/1) ran far too freely last time out but had come on a ton for the experience.
She was much too free again for the early part of the race and was under pressure with about half a mile to run. She stayed on very well close home but could only manage 2nd, beaten just under 2 lengths.

A disappointing few days since Christmas with 2 of our 4 bets running poorly and 2 running well but not managing to win.

The weather seems to be more settled now and hopefully it will stay that way as we head into the new year.
There should be a bet tomorrow but nothing certain at this stage.
