Surprisingly good number of mainly moderately priced winners today given that Ayr was abandoned causing a few no bets, 8 in total from the remaining 30 bets. Best was Alan Mabb to surge clear of the group sitting in 2nd through 5th with his 11-2 winner. He is now only 17.88 behind and has had 3 more bets than leader Kevin Dighton. Who I understand is unhappy with the Eire racing rule and Vince Paige unhappy with the points system in the plate - no pleasing some eh! Either of them can swap with me any day and I expect Stuart Bentham the leader of the plate would say the same :-). Other winners were all 11-4 or worse Kevin Hall got off the mark with one of the 2 11-4 winners Steve Walton recorded the other.
In the plate Stuart failed to get a winner only recording a 1 point 2nd but as Justin Sercombe sat out he retained the yellow jersey.
Cup was couriered to Jimmy McGarrity this week expecting to see a photo of it in prime position in his office for publication any day soon
