Morning News – 2022-08-15

Good morning...

The best laid plans of mice and men...

After a week of boiling hot weather, yesterday I decided to do some gardening and, of course...

It decided to rain.

So, I had a day off after all.

Today is a bank holiday over here but I shall be working as I've got quite a bit to get done.

There were no Daily Bets yesterday but Roy (my partner at Intelligent-Betting.com) did share this with me (Saturday's selections - the Daily Accumulator)...

Focus Ratings Daily Bets

Banker's Bet

Daily Accumulator

Catterick - 16:25 - Remembering (192%)
Windsor - 16:50 - Tribal Wisdom (185%)
Bangor On Dee - 17:10 - Presentandcounting (200%)

The numbers in brackets are the confidence levels of the horses - I use this to choose the selection when there are more than one selection for the Banker's Bet or the Chancer's Bet - the non-selected horses become part of the Daily Accumulator.

Something to make you smile...

An old Irish man from a traditionally catholic family is lying on his deathbed...

All his family is gathered around them, when he tells them: "I have one last wish: I want to become a protestant."

His family members are shocked, since they are all deeply catholic, but the man insists and it’s his last wish, so they get a protestant pastor, and the man became a protestant, the pastor cheering with joy, that someone from that family decided to become protestant

After the pastor left, the family members ask the old man: "But why? Why did you become protestant?"

With his last breath, the man replies: "I thought it would be better one of them dies!"
