Morning News

Good morning...

Well, I thought that yesterday would turn out better than it eventually did.

Every one of the first 6 races were won by a top three rated horses.

However, not enough of the day's races were won by a top rated horse to put a smile on my face.

The highlight of the day has to be the 15:45 at Wincanton where we got the trifecta. The Trifecta paid £233.30 to a £1 stake.

The new R6 Plus ratings didn't do much better with only 5 of the 13 races being won by a top rated horse. This equates to a strike rate of 38.46%
