I had an okay festival, nothing worth celebrating.

What I'm really happy about is that the cold months (trading and weather wise) are over and we can look forward to Aintree, the start of the flat all the big midweek meetings that go with it. :D

 ...gained +27% on the initial bank, better that the building society!
Don't get excited - it's not really 27% unless you sustain that rate of growth.

Yep 8% a day compounds up to a cool 280 million % APR at the building society ... ish
Better go tell Martin Lewis

Does anyone know if anything obvious caused the spike in North Hill Harvey ?

I could have done so much better this week if I was a bit more patient, just scratched my trade on North Hill Harvey and missed a good swing.

 Someone give SHR a call
Was out for a £500 loss, and another 2nd in the race. But hey ho. Still had a very good week.
You've not had much look with your confident posted selections either ( and relatively short prices, apart from First Flow ), still pleased you had a good week

Still struggle to understand how you can trade and "gamble to the stakes you do and keep them separate .. let alone be as profitable as you claim to be

But at least you seem to be enjoying yourself more than last year
I answered your questions the other day, I think you're taking everything out of proportion, I am not suggesting any fortunes on any form of gambling. I never claim I am being profitable as you claim to me be. 98% of everything I do is trading. I placed and £20 accumulator, £100 double and a large single this week and Let First Flow ride as a bet. Thats it.

I posted my 5 selections in which 4 came 2nd. Relatively low prices, they were all over 7/2....

A trade advice on a horse at 25/1 hit as low as 12s....

I sent you about 70 racing books, trainer, jockey stats out of kindness the other day, not even a thank you and your still chipping on at me here...

I just dont understand your motive.

And there it goes for another year.
Generally been a good Festival, although as I've just said on the last page BD seemed to get harder as the week wore on but otherwise really enjoyed it again

Have to agree with that - Betdaq today was the worse day of the week for me, as others have said, there just wasn't the fill rate there today.

A decent week and quite enjoyable but it didn't quite live up to expectations.

See you all for Ascot in the summer!

Y, I'm really pleased with how it went, but Betdaq seemed to fade a little after those mid-week problems.
