Initial Bet (6 units) posted at 22.45 (UK) 01 Dec:
J.M. Olazabal to win 28/1 @ Victor Chandler
A past winner here (2 yrs ago) and finished the 2003 season 2nd/13th/10th.
Wayward driving not a problem here it seems (Jacobson won last year) and
28/1 has to be a no-risk play.
Closing bet (5 units) posted at 22.00 (UK) 02 Dec:
Lay J.M. Olazabal at 25 @ Betfair
If we can get the 5 point lay in at 25 then we're left with a bet of 1 pt
at 47/1.
Update at 13.30 (UK)
03 Dec:
Olazabal has traded as low as 22 to decent
money and can at the moment be laid for plenty at 24.
Seems we got in and laid too early and anyone who
held on longer will now be very well rewarded.
Still very happy to have 1pt J.M. Olazabal @ 47/1.
Summary:
As with Ogilvy, a top twelve finish but never dangerous. Got to -4 early
in his 2nd round but disappointed.
