Wednesday 14th April

All lays came off yesterday with no significant concerns throughout the day. Profit is now a solid +18pts. Today there is gome great racing action including Newmarket for the flats and cheltenham for the jumps.

At the Cheltenham meet, I am laying Chebona Bula at 11.0. It has had fairly consistent form but at a rating of 110 and with a penalty to carry, I expect there to be several more progessive horses in the field. In the 15.55 handicap chase I am happy to lay Voy Por ustedes at 9.2. The horse has performed terribly this season and will be hard pressed to defy his mark of 163. In the 16.30 3m handicap hurdle I am laying the nicholls horse Theres no Panic. In maiden hurdles it has finished down the field and I cannot see it being well handicapped on 108. In the 17.05 3m1f novice chase I am happy to lay Heez a Steel. Although a four runner race and the potential to be caught out it has a lot to make up at the weights with the two runners and with the claimer unable to claim I feel it is a good price to lay at.

At Newmarket I have just the one lay for the day. I am willing to lay Quadrille in the 15.35. The horse hasnt achieved a great deal yet, winning a class 2 and a mark of 102 may be to high for the horse. Therefore I am willing to lay at 4.5.

In the football, I am happy to lay an injury-stricken Arsenal. Despite going ahead at the nou camp they were fairly poor. Tottenham will be up for it after the cup exit and would love to dump arsenal out of the title race.
