Running profit for April 17.5 points at starting price

The aim of this blog if to provide a profit each month based at starting price and this will be acheived in April in what I consider to have been an extremely challenging month with the ground conditions as they are and horses returning after long breaks.

The place lay of Dubawi Gold was the highlight of yesterday but I lost on the day and the above profit figure reflects this. Today is more of the same and I am only playing in one race :-

2.20 Ripon Memory Cloth 1pt ew and The Osteopath 1pt ew

The meeting has been given the go ahead and I am hoping that at least 16 stand their ground and four places are available - if so then it's each way both selections. I am taking the slight liberty, as it is 10.20 am, to say that the bets should be 1 pt win only if less than 16 run. I think that is fair enough when the profit is calculate at starting price.

The Osteopath was impressive last time under similar conditions and is only up 3lbs whereas Memory Cloth has form in France on the ground and ran really well at Southwell from a poor draw. I am confident one of these will win but don't know which !

In view of the ground I am not risking anything else today and with no flat racing tomorrow will return on Monday
