Monday racing summary

No win bets to report on today, as all three of my proposed bets remained too short in price.

My sole lay bet on the other hand saw me get Sir Douglas successfully beaten. This colt seems to be a true "close but no cigar" horse. Since his only win in a maiden he has come within a few lengths of the winner in several races, without actually getting his own head in front. I'm sure he will win a race at some point, but today I was happy that he would have at least another horse in front of him at the finishing post. He finished second, so still doesn't get to smoke that cigar.

A solitary point to add to the account.
