POST MORTEM

Race 5.
Ordinary race to assess.Only went there because it was the 1st leg of the Quaddie.
Found 2 dogs but a scratching left with only number 4.
Starting at about even money,it got checked badly out at the start.And with it came the Dejavu feeling that no matter what I do,I am destined to be shown as the most pathetic tipster of all time.

Race 6.
Another poor race to assess.1st leg daily double and 2nd of the Quaddie.
Of the selections Find the winner at about Evens and the other runs unplaced.

Race 7.
Yellow was scratched leaving the pink on top.
Got knocked around a bit in the race.The other 3 mentioned were in the quinella.

Race 8.
3 tips here,bags the tiny quinella dividend and also the $8 daily double.
At least the selections are finishing closer to predicted than the earlier events.
Suppose it just goes to show when you have more interpretable data,you have a better show of coming up with the right answers.

Race 9.
Bet of the night turns up here and looks like a good result.
Then gets collared right on the line and our Trifecta gets away.
Financially,the night is becoming a nightmare,but the races are living up close to expectations.
Bit like Greg Chappell that time he did 3 ducks in a row."I'm playing well,I just keep getting out!".

Race 10.
Hallelujah!
$90 return for the Exacta!
The odds-on favourite,number 8, never ran a drum.
How I never included it in my selections,I can't recall.
Could I have mistakenly read my tips as a 3 instead of an 8?.And snagged a huge Exacta by mistake?
Whatever,I ain't giving it back!

Race 11 and 12.
Selections include both winners ,but only a tiny dividend returned for the running double.

SUMMARY.
Big profit on turnover could have been a loss.
Regardless of that,the main thing is that many selections finished towards the front of the field.
Will now do form study after checking for scratchings.
