Tuesday horse racing summary

Another relatively low-key day's action, with only 3 win bets. Divex was my only winner, but matched at 11/4 it meant we still finished the day with a small profit.

Divex was competing in a weak maiden chase at Catterick, having failed to score a win over fences so far, albeit at a higher level. The drop back in class was an obvious opportunity to get off the mark, and I set a value price at 11/4 or better.

I wanted to oppose Dicey Dancer, but the horse was not favoured by the market, and I couldn't get matched at a low enough price to warrant a lay bet.
