Wednesday 03/10/12...

No win for my selection, disappointing again.

> 6 Bets / Staked: 26pts / Profit: -26pts 




17.40 Kempton: First Fast Now @ 7/2 Bet365 - 3pts win

21 races and just one win - not really encouraging of course, but First Fast Now responded very well to the switch for surface lto when he encountered All-Weather for the first time. He had a bumped start and was early ridden by his young jockey as a result of this and didn't travelled at all but the way he finished the race was promising indeed as he came from last to finish a gallant 2nd just hands and heels ridden. He remains on the same mark but drops in class which should really help to win a race again and to give his young rider the first taste of success.



19.10 Kempton: Dana's Present @ 5/2 Bet365 - 5 pts win


Three eye-catching performances in the row for Dana's Present. The first one at the end of August at Kempton when he travelled super well but was short of room in the closing stages and therefore only finished 3rd. He put that right just two weeks later at the same venue when he equally travelled super well but this time got a clear run and just won it in good style. He went only 4lb up for this easy victory and looked poised to win back-back races just four days ago at Wolverhampton when he travelled best of all again but had absolutely no room to go 1f out what surly cost the win. He remains on the same mark but is back at Kempton a track which should suit a bit better I suppose thanks to the longer home straight. If he gets a clear run tomorrow he'll be hard to beat I think.
