Today's Horse Racing

Looking forward to the Derby, hope we see another WTF run like the Oaks. Can't remember a big flat race with a burst of pace like that since Frankels 2000 Guineas!

Levelled up in the cricket so I can watch the Derby unhindered

Doubt I will trade, I find elite races tricky.

Bolshoi Ballet putting in a decent swing here.

Jocked off earlier but ends up on a winner, I like it.

Happy he won the derby, deserved it. On the other hand I’d say these markets are going backwards not forwards. The was better Saturdays in January. Personal opinion but to me they’ve been weak for a while.

That was one of the weaker Derby's I have traded. Matched about £3.8m at post when for a favourite that short you would expect £5-6m really.

Curious market on the favourite, somebody kept slapping some big lays in for a while. I fell short on what I should have got as I had to bail my position at that point. Should have held on as it did retrace.

Them big lays were a bit unnerving

Is this due to the state of the economy (post Brexit and covid)? I've noticed a decline in traded volumes over the last couple of years.

Did something happen with Bolshoi Ballet? I had quite a big loss, but it is now showing as 0.00 in my P&L? Can't quite figure it out.

Did you have your position to take SP?

No, I never do that - I just hedge manually before the off. Unless I didn't hedge properly without realising and got lucky?

Maybe, the only thing I remember there being wrong was BF taking 14 months to turn the market inplay. When I saw your post I was curious as to if that would of effected the SP. Other than that everything was fine.

Yeah when I saw you said 'Well done BF' I thought something had happened. I could have sworn I hedged, must take more care from now on....Cheers anyway.
