    Well it will still be interesting to see how we would have done.

    DEFI DU SEUIL wins.

    TEA FOR TWO narrowly beats CUE CARD in the 3rd, making a roll over very likely with just 24 units on at this stage.

    I think I have to be honest and say we would have probably bust the jackpot, even as a syndicate today.

    But hey, we haven't started for real yet. :=)

    Being someone who doesn't like to admit defeat, I have done the following:
    Bet DetailsDate/TimeStakeReturn
    Buveur D'air @ 2/5
    On The Fringe @ 7/4
    Foxtail Hill @ 11/1
    Yorkist @ 14/1
    Raven's Tower @ 9/1
    Theinval @ 13/2
    Shearling @ 5/1
    Sassy Diva @ 8/1
    Drops Of Jupitor @ 14/1

    No winners of the Jackpot, roll over of £17,664 to Aintree tomorrow.

    Regarding our strategy for the syndicate, we will nearly always wait until the roll over is greater than £40K, although sometimes when less, if the card doesn't look too competitive.

    Interesting that the two main "bankers" went in, namely, DEFI DU SEUIL and BUVEUR D'AIR and yet the Jackpot was still not won by anyone, which gives strength to the theory of having at least one banker and a wider perm elsewhere.

    For example if we had DEFI DU SEUIL and BUVEUR D'AIR as bankers the remaining four legs we could have one race with 4 selections, one with 5, and two with 6 selections, for a £360 outlay.

    I'm not saying we would have won it, but we certainly would have given ourselves a chance.

    Cheers,

    This perm wasn't too far away, a 1st or 2nd in every leg, not too bad as it was only 36 lines.:
