Even I took the cash out, relieved I came away with something. £300.

It's a good winner that.

That's the risk with jump racing, 1 poor jump and it's game over. Wasn't it one of Mullins last year that was pissing it and fell last or second last? Saved the bookies a fortune.

For all you who like me, backed Storm Goddess e/w (I had, for me, a ‘big’ bet).

Our fate was decided early, at least - interesting to see how she loved racing, and actually finished rather than running out as so many do without a pilot; actually jumped really well without the jock, and finished in front.

If the cash out was £20k I'd be less inclined. But unless you're absolutely Brewstered, I don't see how you could turn away £275k.

I know he's a pro and has £20k in his balance so it's not the only ACCA he has going
How do people know he has £20k in his balance?

When does a person decide to go pro?

No idea if he is considered a pro but his screenshots showed a 20k balance.

Pro might be the wrong word. But he's not just an average Joe picking horses is he?

Could have been even better as Mount Ida was one I fancied all week and then changed my mind at the last minute. Can't have too many complaints though.
