We're living in a Boomtown

A most pleasing day's punting, returning just over 5 points profit. I had five back-to-win bets, which produced three winners, and a further two placed horses. Boomtown is a horse currently enjoying some improvement in form, and the handicapper felt he was worthy of his highest ever mark for his narrow defeat last time out just three days ago. This afternoon he was running at Lingfield, and offered at 15/8 to win this morning. This price instantly stuck out as good value, and indeed his price shortened all day until he was sent off at 11/10F He made all in the race to win, and there could still be more to come.
