One account bet today and you may be able to tell by the title it was a close one!
Kingsmere, 2pt win @ 9/2 was thought to be well handicapped now taking a much needed step up in distance.
He went off a 5/1 chance but was always travelling smoothly and was clearly going the best of the pack with a mile to run. He continued to make smooth progress and was trading well odds on with 4 furlongs to run.
He took the lead with about 3 to jump and but Pie At Midnight battled on very gamely and regained the lead with 2 to jump. He idled in front though and our selection, Kingsmere regained the lead, only to be caught again by Pie At Midnight on the line and go down by a short head.
Our selection traded at 1.02 in running (50/1 on.) Needless to say, not many get beaten when they trade that short so we can consider ourselves unlucky.
Once again, the info was spot on we just ran into one today that battled a bit too well for our liking!
An interesting day tomorrow and there will almost certainly be at least one account bet.
Thanks for reading

Hi
ReplyDeleteThe price that your selection got down to proves your reasons for selecting it were sound, but it is gut wrenching when these sort of events occur.
These sort of things even themselves out over the long run though.
I have started to follow your blog and I am going to add it to my blog list, would you consider adding my blog to your list. The address is:
