Was just updating the results for this evening and was amazed to see the overall results of my top tips for today's meeting, I was actually disappointed in a few of them to be honest and failed to get a feeling of frustration for running countless placings
Results were:
R1#6 Blacktie Affair 3rd
R2#6 Iden Justasmyrk 1st
R3#1 Bide Your Time 2nd
R4#4 Brian Buster Brown 2nd
R5#2 Biggernbettermax 2nd
R6#6 Brezhnev Leis 1st
R7#10 Cosmic Under Fire 2nd
R8#3 Little Elf 2nd
R9#7 Bonnie Wee Laddie 2nd
9 races - 2 winners, 6 seconds, 1 third
The point I was alluding to is that none of the second placegetters really deserved to win (bar Cosmic Under Fire and Little Elf) and most had every possible hope to be frank yet I would imagine a lot of punters would be lamenting their luck and driving people mad with sob stories about running second 6 times in the last 7 races. You have to accept it for what it is and I am certain on another day I will win 2-3 races that I don't really deserve to win which we never seem to think about when having a rough trot. When you are winning and getting heaps of photo finishes in your favour, you never reflect and think this is going to go the other way soon - just isn't in the punting handbook to do that!!
Over the course of time, there will be peaks and troughs mixed with good and bad luck so you just have to cop it on the chin as what goes around will eventually come around.
I might have to stop tipping horses whose names begin with a "B" also :)
A tip for early in the week
