Saturday 24th April

I've thought of a "fund" for this dormant blog.

Trading is going slowly but safely. It's a dull process though and I've been finding myself doing more "get rich quick" bets to accompany the grind.

I may as well make them a regular post on here. Of course these are "left-field" big price bets - hitting one out of the ballpark - and as such there are going to be stupefying losing runs. Still, you may be able to pick out some nuggets.

Today's swing and misses:

Spurs 6/1+ ("Draw no bet" may be a better option for a proper bet. Or the Asians. I'll lay Man Utd for trading purposes. 6/1 is too big though).

Portsmouth 6/1+ (Also too big on ratings. Team news would be imperative before a proper bet, and again "draw no bet" or asians may be safer approach).

Carlisle 7/1+ (The RP odds compilers football league is always of interest. Two of the compilers nap this in an attempt to land the title)

Oh Crick 4/1+ (Interesting trading possibility, given Twist Magic may not start, and there's a chance a few will cut their throats up front).

Nostringsattached 12/1 (I have this ante post at 25/1. Shame I also have a non runner at 25/1! Pricewise has forced him into 12s and lower now.)

Glass harmonium 4/1 (Another Stoute horse to improve like fine wine? Not interested in actual bet at the prices though)
