Day 2 - Wednesday - Royal Ascot 2020

[WADDY]

It's an absolute punting massacre...

[Viking Flagship]

Well done VF.......nice little earner at a great price. First time he got a mention on the telly was when he crossed the line.

Thanks again, you've got me back in the black.

No worries! Found himself a long way back but ran on strongly. My other in the race Afaak just nicked 7th too so a quite a profitable Hunt Cup!

[Viking Flagship]

Main singles today are:

Alternative Fact EW
Arthurian Fable EW
Baltic Baron EW

Have also done the Maydanny/Montatham double that someone made a good case for and waiting on Japan for a nice double with Circus Maximus.

TBH I'd just settle for Japan doing the business!!

Think I will probably leave the last 2 races alone unless the day is going well.

I should have perm'd my singles today, this would have made a nice EW trixie!

[ComplyOrDie]

Well, it ended better than it started.

Vale Of Kent 25/1 place

Tactical 9/2 (big shout to 7barrows for forcing my hand with this one), plus two 20/1 places in the 4.10 somehow made it my most profitable race today

4.40 Fujaira Prince at 5/1 bolting in and Floating Artist managing a place at 14/1!

Bit of a turnaround really, as the day was bloody awful up until this happening. Japan still costly however.

[ryanh97]

1.15 - Ouzo
1.50 - Kenzai Warrior
2.25 - Bright Melody
3.00 - Japan
3.35 - Bell Rock, Afaak and Dark Vision
4.10 - Sunshine City
4 40 - Ranch Hand

Double of Ouzo and Bell Rock. Stole Mayos Yankee as well.

Just the one 11/1 winner. I've had worse birthdays though

[7barrows]

That was a nice winner, been waiting all week for that! I too got carried away with Japan but glad we finished on a high!

Week stats:
Total Stake - 94.1 pts
Total Return - 42.5 pts

Profit/loss - -51.6 pts

Total Open - 31.8 pts

Nothing that exciting for me today, Russian Emperor was good, but in terms of punting I needed him to connect with Japan, Ranch Hand or most importantly, Chief Little Hawk - and they didn't.

Ended up increasing stakes from 94.1 pts to 147.1 pts .. my weekly stats after day 2 are now:



Week stats after Day 2:
Total Stake - 147.1 pts
Total Return - 94.5 pts

Profit/loss - -52.6 pts

Total Open - 33.3 pts


So I actually am slightly worse off at the end of today than I was yesterday.
