Good start to December

We're off and running for December, with a solid five points profit secured thanks to a very comfortable success with our first selection of the month.

We had:

TIME COURSE SELECTION 1pt/2pt win Bookmaker(s) / Price(s)

2.00 Leicester Fiendish Flame 1pt 11/2+generally 6/1 Lads/Hills/Boyles
2.10 Wincanton Tarquinius 1pt 7/2+generally 4/1 Lads/Coral

It's very unusual that we have selections also made by Hugh Taylor, but conditions were right today and Fiendish Flame ran out an extremely impressive winner. Leading from the start, he was never headed and saw his rivals off one at a time, unchallenged, to win by nearly 20 lengths, after going off at 11/2. Lovely stuff.

Tarquinius couldn't follow up (SP 4/1). He was prominent for a long time, but dropped away tamely to be pulled up four from home.

Confirmation of selections with prices (advised --- SP):

Fiendish Flame, 1st/6, 6/1 --- 11/2

Tarquinius, PU/7, 4/1 --- 4/1

So a good start to the month, and on to tomorrow we go!
