And finally, two for the 20.30 in Punchestown.
Mrs Mac Veale 1.6pt e/w @ 12/1
LOSE
Erlkonig 2.4pt, SUPPOSED to be e/w but my fat fingers pressed the confirm button too soon. So it's 2.4pt to win, 14/1 - unlikely.
May still put on an e/w.
LOSE
Actually, you know what, I'm going to put 2.5pt e/w on Vive La France in the 20.30 at 9/1.
LOSE
I think I cursed this race - two of my three fell!

So that's 29.8pt total in bets. That leaves me with a balance of just 15pt! I will update for wins and losses as I go along. Oh well, even if I lose every single one, I still have 1.5 times what I started with.
If things go well, maybe I'll do a few more this evening.0 -

And my OCD pays off!
I edited my post to add this in at 17.58! 0 -

Yes, I went a little bit crazy today, leaving me with a balance of only 6pt! Will be interesting to see how this pans out. As per the title, it's only an experiment. I'm sure I'll at least get back up to my original 10pt ... hopefully!!!!! Will update as the day goes on. (I'm bedbound for a few days, hence all the extra time to be messing around with horse betting!) 0

Well, I've 24pt, and I'm going to go with my usual style of throwing on the lot and hoping for the best! If I have any winnings, I'll probably put a few more bets on later today, we'll see how these go first. However for some reason I'm not feeling very lucky today.
Time will tell! Here goes.

So that brings my balance up to 37.1pt. Quit while I'm ahead? Never!
Will throw down a few more bets. As mentioned, I'm bedbound and bored. This is just a way of entertaining myself, I'm not even aiming to make money out of it. For the entertainment I've gotten the past couple of days, it's well worth the original tenner I put down. (By the way, in case it's not obvious, I know nothing about horses and my bets are pure guesswork!)
More bets coming soon.

Since I've started this little experiment of mine, I've lodged €49.27 altogether from the start, and my current account balance is €167.75. Not bad over five days, I think.
I'm now going to withdraw €49.27, leaving my balance as my winnings only, i.e. €118.48. I'll then post up my bets for tomorrow.0
