Racing strategy day 1

It's still early jump season and there weren't any horses matching my selection criteria, so I left it. I was helped in my abstinence by another strand of my strategy, in that I'd seen a convincing argument for Our Vic the week before last and got on at 8-1, so I had a watching interest and it cruised in at 9-2 (having been a lot shorter even than that, so I'd had the enjoyment of watching the price come in over the last week or so, as well as seeing the race.) I don't feel disappointed either at missing out on the England treble (football, rugby union and League (or 4-timer with the cricket)) as it's been sufficient pleasure watching it. I've happily ruled out backing teams I support as I always convince myself that they'll win (though I have had a largeish bet on England to win the football World Cup as I genuinely think they've got a real chance.)
