Tuesday racing summary

A profitable day today, as two of my three win bets came home in front at good prices. Maletton won at Folkestone, with 100/30 freely available on Betfair just before the start, and you could get 3/1 about Master Sebastian before he was backed right into 9/4

Two lay bets, but unfortunately Ransboro was never available as low as 13/8 and so goes down on the account as a 'no bet'. A different story with Isam Top who was running in the handicap hurdle at Folkestone. Raised 8lb since his last win I thought the handicapper had got a handle on him. I suggested any price under 7/2 would be a good value lay bet, and indeed you could have got as low as 5/2 during the course of the day on Betfair. He was held up in the rear, and never struck a blow, finishing in fifth position.

More than 6 points profit for the day.
