Thanks Kev, I read your post last weekend and looked into Kinane's record of winners at Ascot and put a tenner on at 10-1. Then re-read it on the 1st day and realised it said each-way! Was smiling after his treble on the second day though - thanks again.

Thanks all, some great advice there (I hope!). Definitely some aspects I can work into my own game and hopefully see some improved finishes. Also, some good advice about not getting too hung up on the money finishes (as nice as they are) and still enjoying the game - thanks Tom.

I'll keep you posted on any progress.

Thanks Tikay.

Seems I am on the right lines then. Hopefully I'll start to win more races - especially the ones where I start in the lead! I realise these things even out over time. As long as I keep finishing there or there abouts at the end then the money finishes will hopefully become more frequent. For you as well I hope!

Sorry if that sounded like I only wanted Tikay's advice - advice from as many people as possible would be very helpful!

Hi,

I'm just after some advice with regards to the above. I've been reading the forum for a few weeks now and it seems Tikay is the one with the most experience of finishing on the bubble (sorry!) so I was wondering what his thoughts are on this? Personally, I've been playing online for a little over 6 months and, after a not too expensive learning period, have started to do well in cash games. However, in tourneys I've managed to win one (somehow) and get a couple of money finishes but more often than not end up just outside the cash. I know a lot of it is about timing and luck (to an extent) but any advice would be appreciated. Apologies if this is something you have discussed before.

Thanks
