Week 4: Update on Ban Jay Desai

Total Staked £2,700.50, Total Returned £3,408.00 = Profit £707.50 (26.2% Return)

My first losing week, which is not the best preparation going into Chelts. However, I'm optimistic as always and losing £12 is not worth discussing. I'm hoping I can wing clear of this minor £700 mark at some point as I keep being drawn back towards it!!! 

I won't be punting today as the bookies must be bricking it enough :). If Quevega, Sprinter and Hurricane hack up tomorrow then they will fear the worst with Big Bucks and Sizing Europe. Their only glimmer of a failure will then be Long Run. Ladbrokes are offering best price on all favs this morning from 9am so will be braced for a bashing, but their optimism is dumbfounding. Back to reality and I must admit I'm not confident all 6 will win. 4 must have a really solid chance and we have to remember this is the field of dreams and a lot of horses that trot up here have a good chance, but please, please, please let them all win :)

It's not just the above 6 favs that are solid in the market though. You have to look at the likes of Darlan and Boston Bob and wonder. I'm excited. Till tomorrow...
