- Leading Light won the St Leger for £240, from a long held free bet at 10-1
- England winning the 4th ODI at 11-8 for £55
- Outstrip winning the Doncaster opener for a £37 profit
As usual on a Saturday, a long litany of losers
- Both boxing bets lost, and eventually turned what was a daily profit at 6pm into a loss. Galahad won by stoppage with three rounds to go when we were tantalisingly close to the required points victory. Molina beat Smith on a split decision, for combined losses of £70
- Horse losers Aajjadd, Excess Knowledge, Libertarian, Mr Red Clubs combined for losses of £210
- Peterborough came very close to winning a goals bet, beating Bristol City 3-0 with a missed penalty on top. We needed 03.5 and 05.5 in the match. As it happened, we lost £50
- In FAC1Q both bets lost for £40, though dunce of the day goes to myself for tipping a home team that lost 6-2
In bets due to settle today:
-
Golf Snedeker had an up and down day but goes into the last round two behind Furyk. Donald had a good day and got in contention for a sweat with a 67 to be T11. Speith was over par for the day and is T18
Such is the scoring potential at Conway farms though that any one of 25 golfers could win tonight. In each round someone has carded 59,61,63,64,65 and if the same happens again today, a player could come from a way back.
Looking at the Longer term positions
-
Baseball It was a decent day. The Red Sox beat the Yankees. In the wild card race the Rays beat the Twins. With the Ranger losing their fifth straight the Rays are now the leading wild card team. The Royals beat the Tigers too
-
Cricket Middlesex and Sussex both drew and so the top of LVCC Div 1 looks like this coming to the end of the season:
1 Durham P14 224.5
2 Yorkshire P14 194
3 Middlesex P14 179---------
4 Sussex P15 166
5 Warwicks P14 147
16 game season. So, with only one game to play, Sussex are struggling to get top 3 and we should scoop something on Middlesex each way
Next? Yorkshire v Middlesex and Sussex v Durham. Ouch
Rogers scored 108 yesterday
He's missed two months of the season and in the top captain bet the situation is as follows
Madsen 1219
Joyce 1008
Rogers 995
I am not taking it as a loser yet, but we need to go some to win it. More Rogers centuries give us a chance. With 1479 runs Rogers in the top runscorer across all cricket in England this year. Was one of the all time great bets, until he was called up for the Ashes!
In LVCC2 Lancashire were promoted when, badly affected by the weather, Essex could not beat Kent when in a dominating position. This was excellent news for Northants too
The situation is
1 Lancashire P14 228
2 Northants P14 188
3 Essex P14 167
----
4 Gloucs P14 156
Northants can seal an each way return for us this week by beating Kent at home.
Right, onto season bets. I hate Sunday mornings
Lets start with the
good news from yesterday
* Wells and Assombolonga both scored 2 yesteray and remain in the top three in the Div 1 top scorer market behind Callum Wilson of Coventry City
* Arsenal and Ozil looked excellent in winning 3-1 at Sunderland. Chelsea lost, Man C drew, and the top 3 bet looks like it will be a runner
* Palace lost at Man U. No surprises. We have them to finish bottom
* Hull and Cardiff drew, a point each onto their totals for handicap bet purposes
* Kidderminster won, and are currently equal with/ahead of the two teams who started on handicap scratch, Forest Green and Luton with a seven point start
* Watford drew, and are 8th. Promotion and top half bets there
* Tranmere, who we have to be Esorelegated lost 4-3 at home. Equalised to go 3-3 in the last minute and lost to an injury time penalty. The pubs in Birkenhead would have done a roaring trade last night
* Texas A and M lost, though Manziel looked excellent. Oregon won and Mariotta recovered from a slow start to also look excellent
* Villareal, correcting myself, drew with RM. A point won then!
In the
bad column
* Barnsley lost 3-2 at Forest.2-2 with ten minutes to go and I knew what would happen before it happened
* Bale scored on his RM debut. So did Beckham, both Ronaldos and Figo, by the way.
* Cazorla did not play, Navas was a sub....no assists there
* Bent was injured,Paulinho did not score
* Mackay looks no closer to being the first Premier League manager sacked
Reading, Southampton, Bilbao, Napoli, Jay Rodriguez, Kansas City Chiefs, Miami Dolphins, the Tennesee Titans, Philadelphia Eagles, Brees, Stafford, Ryan, Ocovango, Orfevre all play today .....
Can I get down now please Mum? Good.
