A Chinese proverb says " bad luck always comes in pairs". Guess what, after yesterday debacle at Cheltenham,today once again i dropped 2k in a sudden rush of blood !!As i strongly fancied Pride of Dulcote to win the 3-10 at Cheltenham, and after seeing it jumped beautifully and travelled powerfully behind the leaders with three to jump,i decided to leave the bets open.Uncharacteristically, the horse made a mistake at the next hurdle and fell heavily. So from one moment i was counting the winning to next thinking about recoup the losses.
Without much thinking i thought the winner Fair Along would be struggled to get up the Cheltenham hill, so as soon as i saw Powerstation came with a strong run to close on the winner, in a panic second i clicked the preset one click button backing powerstation a few times too many :-(
Powerstation didn't get up and i lost a packet, to rub salt into the wound, my fellow traders ridiculed me all afternoon saying that powerstation would never get up even with a circuit to go !!
