Oh Crick made no show in Exeter's feature race so our Lay would have been safe, but at 11/2 it was way out of my comfort zone, so I class it as a No Bet.
A similar case in the 14:20 Kempton where our Lay bet finished 2nd and our Back bet finished 3rd, so the only loss was a bit of commission.
Pretty much the same story in the 14:50 where our Back bet ran 2nd to last, but our Lay was a non-runner, so classed as a No Bet.
We got our Lay bet up in the 15:50 but in unsatisfactory circumstances. Mafeking (7/2) was PU after 1F, let's hope there's nothing too amiss. As an aside, anyone who Lays horses over jumps and wants them to fall when approaching the last in a clear lead should be taken out and shot.
Although we can hope for a bit more action tomorrow we never try to force a bet when there isn't one. This is the one advantage we have over the bookmakers and the inveterate gamblers, we can pick and choose.
