Monday felt like, well, a Monday.
The day started well with Gentleman Anshan giving an excellent run into second to be beaten by the fave, Nobel Legend.
After that, I felt like I didn't have a feel for the day. It happens. Especially when you're at it five days a week.

Yesterday, I spent the afternoon preparing for the jumps. Unlike the flat, ratings and performance over jumps will take a bit more assessment.
Last year, I had a basic ratings for jumps that worked well. What I am finding challenging is the goings and conditions which are making it difficult to update my 'standards' and assessments of each track.
So some sleepless nights ahead as I stand in front of my white board doodling and adjusting my parameters.
Hopefully I won't go down the road of John Nash in 'A Beautiful Mind'.
