It was another profitable day yesterday for the stats and
best bets, as Another Boy (3/1 > 6/4F) and Double Czech (6/1 > 4/1) made
it 2 wins from 3 at Chestow, and took the total profit up to £617.08, from £10
stakes, in the last 13 days.
So, why stop now, let’s hope for the same again, as we move
onto Wednesday, with meetings across the UK at Ayr (F), Kempton (AW), Lingfield
(F), Southwell (J), and Warwick (J). The stats and best bets are focused on the
afternoon flat meetings from Ayr and Lingfield.
