Mate, when you put it that poetically it's almost a pleasure to lose! :-)
I tend to do best in June and August and not so bad in July. I put that down to Belmont coming on line. I can't believe what a contrast there is between Ascot and Belmont as far as my fortunes go. Never been to the courses but I wonder if the preparation area at Ascot is too close to the drinking trough. :-) |
