Saturday 7 February

Fully intending to miss Saturday's main races again, as part of my long-term plan, I found myself skipping through the card last night despite myself. And predictably that proved dangerous as some horses just jumped off the page. So...

2:25 Houblon Des Obeaux 8pts at 3/1 and Taquin Du Seuil 4pts at 9/2

Houblon's a mighty fine horse. Which make Coneygree really quite exciting.


3:00 Mr Mole 12pts at 10/3



I threw a few quid at Mr Mole to win the Champion Chase at 33/1 ahead of the race. Thought he should have been more like 12/1. Which he still is. If you won on him today, worth a top-up surely?


3:35 Jolly's Cracked It 5pts ew at 20/1 and Wicklow Brave 2pts win at 20/1  
 

Jolly's Cracked It ran on through beaten horses having seemingly struggled early on. Really like him for fast-paced handicaps. I cheered him home, assuming my each way paid out for 5th, only to find I'd done the bet with one of the only bookies paying out on 4 places. What a wanker.

Indeed - and a small novice chase winner also as part of my new more serious edge. Two more winners at lowly Plumpton today. I'm onto something, gambling gods willing. No idea if it will translate to flat racing, But interesting times, I'm engaged again like I haven't been for at least 5 years.
