Flat Season – Horses To Follow Books

[ivanjica]

I have been buying Mark Howard’s "One Jump Ahead" book since the late 90’s and this season turned over my biggest profit in a long time following his 40 to follow and inserting them into my RP Tracker.

I am wondering can anyone recommend a similarly successful "horses to follow" author for the forthcoming turf flat season. I know Mark has a Flat version of his book but even by his own admission he is more of a jumps specialist.

Many thanks in advance.

Surely someone purchases one of these books? No?

I’ve always liked Mark Howards books. Others to consider are Timeform’s 50 to follow or Marten Julian’s dark horse annual. Both very good.

I’ve followed many such lists by supposedly clued up pundits to no avail. About 10 years ago I used to keep a notebook of remarkable performances and whittle it down to 30 runners to follow in the following season. That used to work then but sadly, no more.

Thanks for the advice guys. I will probably have a look at the Marten Julian one.
