The Actuary Horse Racing Tips provided three unadventurous selections on today's moderate Lingfield Park card. The first and most speculative being 1 point Slately Hen in a 'Amateur Ladies' event. A search term on Google that provided a good hours entertainment this morning and I was still none the wiser as to who was the best rider ;)
The second selection 1 point on Aye Aye Rigby. Having taken marginally odds-on this morning I was somewhat pleased that Aye Aye Rigby returned at evens in a comfortable victory where George Baker made all.
With honours evens, 1 point lost, 1 point gained, the burden of expectation fell on 3 point selection Hefner and Richard Hughes.
As they swung for home the William Hills price of 2-1 taken earlier this morning looked very generous and perhaps my concerns in the dying strides as Handsome Ransom closed were misplaced when watching the replay. Like a film when you know the ending it hard not to be smug about it.
