I have been disappointed with my efforts at Rosehill. Well below what I had expected.
Nevermind, you've got Thurles to look forward to this afternoon. ;)

I got up early to do the golden slipper, but automated the rest.

Dallas finally kicked you out of bed ;)

How did you find the Slipper?

Guessing (Hoping) your temperature the other day didn't develop?

I’ve got the occasional excellent result from it, but not today. It was ok buy nothing of note.

Temperature has subsided, my daughter had tonsillitis and obviously gave a bit to me, so I think it was my bodies reaction to that.

Just 3 minutes between Rosehill and Ascot this time.

Likewise, Rosehill has been a real disappointment today for me. Done okay elsewhere but had expected to do much better at Rosehill on such a big day.

I've enjoyed that session. It's a pity there's no racing on Mars that we can trade. :) As soon as I'm up tomorrow I'll start the upgrade to the latest Windows 10 to kill the temptation to look at Thurles and then get some work done on the garden.

There didn't appear to be that much liquidity, maybe no punters on course caused this?

Hopefully next week will be better, another two group ones at Rosehill.

There wasn't a great deal of spoofing either. Maybe he's got C19. :D

I wondered that, it has felt different to me since the punters have been kept out.

Derek - upgrading to Windows 10 is very easy, just takes a time. I put it off for ages thinking it would be a big job but it was very easy.

Off to the supermarkets in a moment - get in before the crowds :)

I usually format the partition and do a clean install - I've automated the installation of apps and settings. But even if it just takes time that will encourage me to get on with other tasks.

I think you'll find the crowds already there queuing to get in. I got a few nasty looks when people thought I was jumping the queue just because I couldn't be bothered to walk two miles down the road to join the back of it. :lol:

But at least when the doors opened we all walked calmly in, with one guy shouting that he hasn't had a shit all week. :lol:

Sometimes though, a fight breaks out as soon as the doors open. :lol:

Havent traded the Austrain since my daughter was born 2.5 yrs ago.

Really enjoyed it, and as a bonus I got to watch the sunrise over the fells from my window/ :)
