Mug's Game: A welcome air of enlightenment with Rachael and Henry on our side

Existential questions are put to bed as we claw back Tuesday's losses with a little interest on top. What could possible go wrong on Day Four?

Onto Day Three and we’re afloat again. Or are we? An interesting existential question arises. If we started out on Tuesday with €50 and finished Wednesday with €32.20 are we ahead or behind? We’ll leave it to loftier minds than ours to grapple with this one.

Down to business. Random fivers on Home By The Lee (because he’s always there or thereabouts), D’Art D’Art (because his Tom Cooper stablemate Shuttle Diplomacy did us a favour in the bumper yesterday) and Midnight Our Fred (because someone from Waterford mentioned him).
