Well it's a good job the Olympics is doing a good job to keep spirit's up! A frustrating day, with another second placed finish, and two others for whom things perhaps could have been different if they'd have started better.
We had:
TTIME COURSE SELECTION 0.5pt/1pt/2pt win Bookmaker(s) / Price(s)
5.30 Yarmouth Akula 1pt 5/1+generally 11/2 SkyBet
5.40 Sandown Chorister Choir 1pt 10/1+generally inc. 11/1 Lads/BetVictor&others 12/1 Bet365/Coral/PP/Totesport
8.00 Chepstow Loyal N Trusted 1pt 9/1+generally inc. 10/1 Lads&others 11/1 Hills/Totesport/Betfred
Akula travelled really well for a long time in the last at Yarmouth, going odds-on in running, but was in the end out-gunned into second, after starting a well backed 11/4.
Chorister Choir, on her racecourse debut was also strong in the market, but she fluffed the start and ran very green early on before staying on nicely under a considerate ride, she'll probably be winning before too long and it's just a shame it didn't happen today. She went off at 15/2.
On an excellent day for value for our bets, Loyal N Trusted was also well backed, going off at 6/1, but also made a hash of the start. He got back into things before just not having enough left in the tank in the closing stages despite looking a big danger with about a furlong to go (traded at evens).

Akula, 2nd/9, 5/1 --- 11/4
