System Bet - Won

Manual Bets - Lost

I've had better Boxing Days.

It wasn't catastrophic, but it's traditionally my biggest betting day of the year, I had 20% of my annual profit staked today, mainly on my System Bet, but, while that delivered yet another solid win, a series of near misses on my other bets more then wiped out the gains.

Worst was Banbridge, who I'd bet under today's SP at 12/1 win only almost a year ago, because if he gets up it's a winning day.

Ditto Tapley, Ivane and King Of The Road.

Any one of that trio wins and it's Merry F*****g Christmas - at least I copped the each-way place money with those three.

Looking forward to tomorrow now - I've got 14 bets on, the System Bet will be in action and I'm wheeling out the AW Data Model to give Wolverhampton a go.

Manual Bets - Won

AW Data Model - Lost

Decent winning day overall.

System Bet was solid, manual bets went very well, with winners in Chasingouttheblues, King Of The Lake, Lunar Discovery and Williethebuilder, and the only thing to take the shine off it was the AW Data Model, which is now barely ahead on thr year.

I've got bets organised both tomorrow and on Monday already,I've got six more Monday races to look at, then I'm doing to run a couple of races at Santa Anita on Sunday through the new model, all while crashed out on the sofa.

It's great being me.

USA Data Model - Lost

Losing day.

I just did my weekly accounts (I'll next do them New Year's Eve for the end-of-year numbers) and my ROI across all activity is 5.4%, about half of last year's, and my overall profit is 78.5% of last year's.

It all gets streamlined on New Year's Day to focus on where I've done best, this year and in 2024.

I've organised 14 bets for tomorrow so far and I'm hoping to end the year on a positive note.
 
AW Data Model - Small loss, but still deeply annoying

Manual Bets - Lost, but less annoying

System Bet - Had it off

Well, as much as it's possible to have it off with a System Bet.

It did all add up to a proper decent day and hopefully I am ending the year on a high.

On the food front, I've obtained some spicy Indian mint paste and Greek yoghurt and can't stop making restaurant standard dip and dunking onion bhajis etc in it at the moment - I'm feeling even more pleased with myself than usual about this, actually.

I feel a Winter curry phase coming on and this could last me well into January in the New Year.

Walsey, don't come on here for the 27th time to label it foreign muck - try to remember you're a socialist, not a Reform voter and, now you're following the winners, start spending the profits on some half-decent (ie not British) food, if your legions of physicians and nice nurses will allow it, of course.
