Really good day yesterday with Thomas Chippendale (13/2) and Gatewood (10/3) both winning.
Please, note, after today I will be taking a 3 week break from the blog, after which I hope to be up and running on World Press, and moving away from Betfair.
Over the next 3 weeks I may be posting selections via the Twitter account (@Sir_Tip), though these will not be recorded against the results section, as they will not be blogged. Any selections tweeted will be just as good though!
