Hello there,

well it's here again - the AINTREE Festival. Don't you just love it, the spectacle of it all. Fantastic horses jumping the most testing fences in the world. Glory, glory!

The Cheltenham stars are out in force and I would not want to be a Layer at Aintree today. A quick update on my week so far: On Monday I had a successful Place bet with SHERIFF HALL,(3rd). On Tuesday I backed VAMIZI at Exeter but he fell. And yesterday my system selected GREENFLASH to win at Lingfield (1st). So not much financial progress this week yet due to the faller.

Paul Nicholls has his best horses running at Aintree over the next few days and I'll be backing most of them. Today I'll be keeping faith with BIG BUCKS in the 2.00 race and ZARKANDAR in the 2.30. I have backed them on my Betfair account and also with Paddy Power. Did you know that Paddy Power offer Faller Insurance bets? How fantastic is that. When you consider those Aintree fences I think it's worth taking a slightly shorter price for the guarantee that if your horse falls you get your money back! I got 4/7 and 8/11 respectively on those bets.

My system has a better than 73% success rate for predicting probable winners. That's a very good success rate indeed, so for these 'system' selections I allocate 2.5% of the bank as a stake on each of them (1/40th). Now obviously they don't all win and I stand to lose 5% today, but over time if I just keep staking 2.5% as regular as clockwork on each of them I should make very good progress.

Thanks for your visit today, enjoy the racing!
