    Done an e/w canadian and only had Boston Bob and Long Run so far, so no need to type my resignation yet. Need Salsify just make it worth walking back down the bookies.

    Pretty average for me too. Some very close accumulators, but not close enough! Think I'm (just) about even overall, thanks mainly to the first 2 days. De Boitron in the last would now be lovely!

    Kid Cassidy for me in the last, had a winner in the first race on Tuesday. It would be nice to finish with one. Overall 6 winners and 2 e/w, most of my bets have been on the nose.
