Don’t get me wrong, there were plenty of fireworks around yesterday. We are very lucky to live just across from a field where a big annual display takes place, very useful. But at the Breeders Cup last night it felt like I’d only been given a couple of sparklers in the back garden.<\/p>\n

For some reason while this meeting is a decent betting heat it never really seems to catch fire from a trading perspective. I did just fine last night, but for such a big meeting it just never seems to really take off spectaculary and I would expect more from it.<\/p>\n

We collected some data from the meeting so will have a good look to understand why, C’est la vie. Despite not getting a great deal of pleasure of out last night the end result is that it will drive me forward again. I love exploring the markets and trying to learn why things happen and how. If I’m honest, that’s what I enjoy the most; the exploration of new territory. I am sure if I was born in the 15th centry I’d be on some wooden ship discovering the new world. As it is, while I still travel a lot, I’ll have to settle for something more mundane.<\/p>\n
