Un matin de bon.

Finally we are out of the Ice Age!! , actually its quite a balmy 7° and me likey ;-) , had a quite a decent day yesterday with some luck thrown into the mix had a trade sat on Berlusca for a steady £20 Profit but was also trading Samedi ( the Fav ) when i got a £8.50 Green on Samedi i decided to ( unfathomly ) cancel all outstanding bets...but i forgot about my trade sat on Berlusca , fortunately Fallon rode it supremely well thru the middle , got first run and won tidily....cue giant sighs of relief!!...and a tasy little win ta boot , which was nice as i made the days money earlier and was just going to spend a few hours short trading as a fillip but ending up having quite a good day , although it was a white knuckle ride as most of my trebles/doubles relied upon Stars in your Eyes which after swerving all over the place only just held on by a Nose!!...Squeaky Bum time indeed!!, onto today , just the 2 meetings left as Folkstone has bit the dust but some half decent and interesting races to chew on and some good football to trade tonight...lets crack on and see what is in store....
Having looked at todays Cards i have decided to do a lite card for SOUTHWELL.
