So yesterday my special at Grafton, the only gallops venue yesterday, disappointed, finishing just 4th. $200 down the gurgler. Surprisingly I received a message form Bet 365 advising of a refund. I assume it had an unfair start. Either way it saved my day. We do get them.
We are finding new followers everyday, just not the milllions I would have if I was in a different category. What I have noticed over the years is that the younger punters haven’t got a clue how to win, nor are they dedicated enough. Instead they are brainwashed by the continuing promotions of hard to win exotics and things like friends forming groups and socialising via their mates .
Mostly they are likeminded, happy to celebrate the occasional winner while losing thousands on the duds. They only seem to remember the successes.
That’s the lesson of today. Cheers. More wet weather will not help us if it arrives in Sydney later in the week as expected.
