    Unfortunately it has been one of those days, not a single winner and a ton of 2nd's!! Only return was a non runner.

    Selby 5-2 down in snooker first to 6 so that looks a gonner as well.

    All down to the footy or ive gone from a decent ammount in front ot a big chunk down. 

    Pool night tonight, few drinks to forget about the **** racing, Manu game will be on, tempted to lump on them, but wont, will just see how may other bets get on when I get home.

    Urghhhh hangover from **** today, well have the hangover from **** every Thursday to be fair.

    Yesterday, well what can I say about it, in poker terms it was bad beat after bad beat and variance at its Ugliest.

    A load of 2nd place finishes in the horses, a 4/11 shot let my snooker bet down. over 2.5 goals 1 game let me down and that was 1-1 after 35 minutes.  Hannover let my banker bet down another 4/11 shot, 7 out of 8 there.

    The one bet I think im collecting on Manu to win 3-2 and they give away 93rd minute penalty, sighs fml.

    I wasnt gonig to start the diary till the start of November, but after Sundays results was glad i started it a few days early, now not so £382 loss today wiping out all profits. 

    Daily amount laid out = £403
    Daily Returns = £21
    Daily profit/loss = -£382
    Monthly profit/loss = -£216.35
    Total profit/loss = -£216.35

    Friday 2nd November 

    Tennis 

    Back on the tennis today after a couple of awful bets earlier in the week but my lucks gotta change right?? 

    Berdych
    Tsonga
    Llorda 

    This tasty treble pays 4.83/1 had £20 on it. 

    Football 

    Leeds
    Mk Dons
    Frankfurt
    Porto
    Zenit St Petersberg 

    Was a toss up between Leeds and Brighton, really wasn’t sure which way to go, Brighton won 2 outta 6 at home, Leeds 2 outta 6 away.  Its probably got draw written all over it, but I’ve sided with the away team, other teams are all big odds on favourites £20 at 13.14/1

    Ok here we go.....

    Santa Anita 

    Not having a bet in every race but picked out a selection for the 6 main feature races.
     

    8.06 – Merit Man – 7/4 - £40 – My banker of the night, Last time out destroyed previous winner South Floyd by 5 ½ lengths whilst easing down.  If it repeats that form it will win comftably.
     

    8.46 – Fame and Glory – 6/1 - £20 – Not been on the best form recently but Aiden Obrien has said he is fitter now.  Hes the class act in the field and 6/1 is a big price hes 100/30 with another bookie.
     

    9.28 – Spring Ventue – 11/2 - £20 - Has won a Grade 2 and 3 quite easily and should be good enough to run a big race here.
     

    10.08 – Spring in the air 10/1 – 10ew – Favourite has a good chance but too short for me, Spring in the air won well on the all weather last time out and should she take to the dirt  has a good chance.
     

    10.48 – The Fugue – 9/4 - £20 Competitive race and I think The Fugue has a chance to show her class. She will like the faster ground and 1m2f is defiantly her preferred trip.
     

    11.30 – Awesome Feather – 9/2 - £20 - is living up to her name having remained unbeaten in 10 starts including two Grade 1s. Drawn away from the inside rail, she can take up her preferred position of pressing the pace and continue her winning ways.

    Interesting read...how much does the draw make a difference? I read that a low draw is best at Santa Anita, is that true for all of the races on dirt and turf? I notice that none of your selections are drawn too high. I would have gone for Fame & Glory as well but Spencer isn't one of my favourite jockeys! :)

    Good luck!

    You'll be glad you cant read it the way the first 2 races have gone, proving to be another tough day.  I think your spot on about hard to make profit because of the ammount of bets im having, and to be honest I have been having more bets than normal since doing this diary, guess i should have a bit of a rethink and cut back a bit.

    Saturday 3rd November 

    Havent worked out what I lost yesterday yet and to be honest I don’t want to right now, not that Ive got the time because I have a date with the pub for the United game.   

    It was another dire day tho I can tell you that much, started well enough with the first 2 winners an 3 of the first 5, but losing 13 in a row after that wasn’t so good.   

    Goodylad hit the nail on the head I am doing to many bets at the moment, Saturday is normally my busiest day yet times this week Ive had more bets, I guess I was thinking more I bet the more interest I’ll get in the diary, but losing £300 quid a day aint worth any extra interest it might gain. 

    My biggest profit so far was last Sunday by far, and I believe that day is the least I’ve laid out. 

    Saying all that its Saturday today, and with so much action gotta have a few bets, doing this diary on a Saturday is going to kill me as I have so many small both teams to score bets, and over 2.5 goals bets takes forever to type up. 

    So lets get on with it.
