Longshot Betting – 10th April 2012

Sunday’s selection received no market support and although showing early speed, faded tamely and obviously I was completely off the mark with any potential improvement. Perhaps some ability remains but it’s one I got wrong and she isn’t a horse I’ll be following with much interest in the near future. I’ve been having a few [...]

Carter Handicap Preview (USA)

A race with a rich history, including producing the first ever triple dead-heat in a stakes race back [...]
