Friday 23rd May

£500 Challenge Bet” (£790)



A very poor day's racing today – looks like it was designed by a bookmaker's stooge.


For the challenge lets look forward to the French Open tennis. A year goes by but not much has changed. Nadal is all but unbeatable on clay, Federer's class carries him through against all but Nadal, and only Djokovic looks to have a chance against them. Injuries and disasters look in the price and we can back the big two to be the finalists (as we have done for the last two years) at a fair price. I'll hedge around Djokovic once more prices are up but keep it simple on here.


Nadal/Federer finalists French Open £20 at 7/4 or better



Barking Bets” (Banked £200/Current bank £1240)

(I played a couple of extra races, and La Pantera Rosa falling when winning cost me my profits. That's two small field NH races that have done for us – they do have a disaster factor that could possibly discount them from this approach. A couple of French Open qualifiers today, and see above for thoughts on French Open which begs a bet here. Racing looks too difficult – the last at Haydock a possibility).
