With opportunities few and far between recently there is
nothing more frustrating than a 2 point, sole selection on the Southwell card
being declared a non-runner. It certainly wiped the smug look of my face having
taken 4-1 and watched as the selection Koo and the Gang shortened to 3-1 prior
to being withdrawn.
The reverse of this scenario played out 10 minutes earlier
as the first of our two Kempton Park selections took to the stalls. Having
taken 8-1 JAZRI (with a BOG of course) I was somewhat unsure what to make of
the drift out to as high as 12-1.
The early stages didn't look particularly favourable as JAZRI
was among the last three and remained there until turning for home. I am sure
that many a subscriber was contemplating stringing me up as JAZRI reached a
high of 300-1 on the exchanges. As they straightened up for home our selection
gobbled up the ground and showed no signs of stopping at the line to score at
11-1.
I must admit to watching the re-run several times since :)
