Ups and Downs

Templier. Winner of today's 4.30 race at Musselburgh.

I'd bet on it to win, so picked up £17.50 for my £5 stake.

I also picked the winner of the day's first race. And the winner of race 5.

All in all I won £72.50 for a profit of £42.50.

A personal best. I came home with a big smile on my face, and more cash in my wallet than when I'd left.

I got some bad news (very bad, really) when I got home, so the bubble burst quickly.
