Racing rules - footy flops

Morning All,

Not too bad a day yesterday with a couple of good value winners from the 8 rated races and also a very nice quinella / exacta. Footy was a flop though with only one correct and more thinking to be done.

Yesterdays winners were

Rampant Lion at $24.60 rated at $7.30

and

Russeting at $10.40 rated at $7.90

And the figures - just overall as I didn't rate Melbourne (sorry again)

Out - $468
In - $644
Profit - $176 (POT 37.60%)
Quinella - Profit $279
Exacta - Profit $704
Trifecta - Loss $480

Overall

Out - $7101
In - $6659
Loss - $442 (LOT 6.23%)
Quinella - Profit $316 (POT 24.51%)
Exacta - Profit $726 (POT 28.16%)
Trifecta - Loss $2245 (LOT 29.01%)

So still losing overall but closed the gap a little and the quinellas and exactas are still going great.

Luckily both those winners were part of the ratings challenge, I'll post the update on it as soon as it's official.

Footy wise, well done Swannies - I should've backed them instead, they definitely have it all over Carlton. Alas, I picked the Hawks who lost to Port and the Lions who got beat by the Pies, both major upsets. My only winner in the AFL was the Cats who look very hard to beat at the moment. In the league, the Titans beat the Raiders by 6, I needed 8.5 and the Knights rolled the Dragons who led them and got run down.

Definitely need to rethink the footy bets.

Ok, better get some stuff done. Enjoy the rest of your weekend
