Bad day. Have to feel some factors were probably not account for correctly, especially with the weather and rain affecting things. As 'they' say, you learn more on bad days and good, let's hope that is the case.

Dower Glen - weakened = -1pt
Hong Kong Island 2nd = -1pt (Beaten by a 40/1 shot)
Amazing Blue Sky = -1pt
Arlequin = -1pt
Mirrored = -1pt
Prince Of Johanne 2nd, returning on the EW = +3.5pts (beaten by a 25/1 shot)
Bertiewhittle NR
Simple Jim 3rd - not far away = -1pt
Miss Dutee = -1pt
Charlietoo 3rd - just lacked that little extra = -1pt
The Dancing Lord won - drifted to 5/2 SP = +2.5pts
Mountrath 3rd - again, just lacked extra pace = -1pt
Fault 3rd - held up early on = -1pt
Kyle Of Bute- finished 2nd last, but in a very tight race. Again, lacked the extra = -2pts
Uppercut 2nd - well backed into 7/2 and always competitive. One paced slightly = -1pt

I guess overall on performance it wasn't too bad - a bit of luck here and there could have been different. It probably is not wise backing shorties on days such as these, when changes in the going can be massive to how a horse runs.

For the day -7pts, which continues on a horrid few days.
