Tilly's Dream comes true

They say "one swallow doth not a summer make" and I'm not really sure why I am using that analogy when it is December next week, but Tilly's Dream was a welcome shot in the arm for an otherwise poor set of results recently. The filly was back to a mark of 68 at which she won over 5f in June. So I felt she was in with a good shout, and would be a value bet at 20/1 or better. She was 16/1 when the market opened on course, and there was plenty of money available at prices over 20/1 on the exchanges. Obviously the market also felt she was over-priced and by the time the race started she had been backed right in to 8/1

There were no lay bets to report, and so a profit of 20 points for the day.
