1 winner from 5 - but 4 places from 5 make for a good day.

A low staking day on the horses created a surprisingly handsome 191% return.

5 horses backed in 10 x £2 e/w doubles and 1 £2 e/w accumulator returned £115.07 for £60 staked. The profit however was lower as place lays of £20 at 1.25 for £5 liability were made on each horse as insurance.

All in the bet netted £35.07.

4 places and 1 win should have really only returned stake, but a couple of drifts and BOG prices helped.

Wins on 2 low priced place bets added another £3.45.

A £20 loss on a place tip which wasn't matched in running for a lay (only 3 ticks away as it finished a distant 4th)  was the only downside.

The net return on the horses for the day - £18.52.
