A great start to the official launch
of our membership club - we could not have wished for better. A fantastic
set of results in November, where we were consistent all month
long, sandwiched between two steady but still profitable months in October
and December.
With the weather the way it was
towards the end of 2005 this was a really good effort. These results would
lead us nicely into the New Year where we would start 2006 betting with
more of the bookies money!

2006 kicked off with another steady
start in January, where yet again we saw a profit. The weather however, was proving
to be a key factor by holding us back in January, and this carried over
into February, where we suffered a dip in form. We eventually clawed it
back to only be down by 6 points by the end of the month.
That was the only blip that we would
suffer all year however, as from that point, we hit a nice purple
patch and just kept going and going. A good March got us back into
profit in terms of year-to-date figures, and reassured our members of the
benefit of being patient and disciplined.
And this was borne out as we saw
double digit profit gains in April, August, October and November,
which
meant that we went into December with a huge profit of 76.38 points. An
excellent effort by all concerned and a great reward for all of our loyal
members.
We celebrated Xmas with another
consistent performance, registering 4.50 points profit, to end 2006 on a
high and very much looking forward to the challenges that will lie ahead
for 2007.

So our 2007 end of year total managed
to eclipse our success in 2006, which at the start of the year was my
overall aim. All the loyal members that stayed with me throughout 2006 saw
another profitable year in 2007, and all this despite a rather torrid time
at Cheltenham.
Once the ground started to firm
up in the Summer, the winners came in, and a bumper May and June got us up
over 40 points profit for the year to date. There was to be only
blip thereafter, in August where our luck deserted us, but in September we
had success at Goodwood and Chepstow and then replicated that in October at
both Ascot and
Cheltenham.
We rounded off the year with steady
months in November and December to finish on an excellent 82.50 points to
the good. Since the start of our membership club, we are over 183 points
to the good, so well done to all of those who joined me in having a
successful 2007.

We had lofty goals once again for
2008, as I wanted us to try and top 100 points pure profit, having
achieved more than 80 points profit in 2007.
The first four months of the year
were a little up and down, as February and April proved to be tough going
for us as we suffered two losing months out of three for the first time
ever. Our performance in March did us proud though and despite a disrupted
Cheltenham Festival due to adverse weather, we came out on top to the tune
of 11.25 points.
After the initial slightly shaky
start, we were pretty consistent for the remainder of the year, with
notable bumper months coming in May (32.25 points profit) and
August, when we once again topped 30 points profit, this time with
32.20.
We surged through Autumn and into the
Winter with yet more consistency, with great results in both England and
Ireland, eventually culminating with a solid December finish and an
unbelievable end of year profit figure of 115.85, thus achieving
what I felt at the time was an ambitious target of exceeding 100 points
profit.
Thank you members once again for
staying with us, and we're already looking forward to 2009, and the
question of whether or not we can better 2008's performance.
