Hard luck story
Just need to vent at what has happend.
I recently fluked a Derby/ Doncaster to get a large collect which i was very excited about. I then used some of those winnings to place a double on the Sir Byrne / S.A Express Oaks as follows:
All Bar One / Marju Snip to win $23,000 and All Bar One / Brockmans Lass to win $9,800. I was absolutely rapt on Sat to win more than i have ever won before when Marju Snip saluted!!
I looked at my account to see i had not been paid as yet which prompted me to call the betting agency.
What i had done is make the double into the S.A Oaks not the Express S.A Oaks as intended.
Firstly its my own fault by not realising what race i was placing the bet on- but how stupid to have two Oaks races in the same state one week of each other.
I am devestated especially as Marju Snip is unlikely to run this Sat in teh Oaks and on Sat's run Brockmans Lass has very small chance of winning.
I can't believe how i have gone from such a big collect to probably nothing - devestated!!!
