As we say goodbye to what was a testing October yesterdays results would suggest we have a bright November ahead as we rush headlong in to the All Weather season proper.
After a glut of second placed selection there had been some signs that the tide was turning with a run of days making small profits with the 25th returning a profit of 2.5 points. A further 5 points profit was made on the 27th and 3 points on the 30th. Yesterday double header started with three disappointments with Ziefhd, Barachiel and Daliance all failing to raise our heart beats.
‘On The Money’ selection Ehtedaam was our next up and first winner of the day. Having taken 7-2 early morning put us marginally up for the day and started what was going to be a glorious couple of hours.
We went in to Kempton’s 4:35 double handed with Bert The Alert (5-2) a ‘Speed and Class’ selection and Royal Etiquette (14-1) ‘The Actuary’ selection. In the early stages it looked like Bert The Alert would be our best hope, leading and attempting to skip away from the field while Royal Etiquette was out with the washing. The picture changed dramatically as they turned for home and Royal Etiquette cruised with ease wide of the field giving me that warm confident feeling you get when you know you are on the winner.
Our next and 2 point selection came with a bonus having taken 4-1 Ouzinkie ‘On The Money’ and ‘The Actuary’ overnight, to have it returned at 5-1 was testament to backing with BOG bookmakers.
Unfortunately our remaining three selections did little to excite with the exception of Dashing David (7-1) ‘Speed and Class’ living up to his name dashing from the back of the field to close on the subsequent winner Secretinthepark all the way to the line to fail by ½ length under Jimmy Fortune.
A long overdue 18.5 points haul for the day to end the month. I can only hope that this is a sign of things to come for November .
