    Hello,

    Trainers: “WHAT THEY SAY” in the Racing Post.

    I usually use the form book to determine where I lose my money :roll: I take as much information and data under consideration before making my, hopefully logical selections.

    Having arrived at my conclusions I then (why? I don’t know! :shock: ) refer to what the trainers/connections have to say in the first few pages of the RP.

    Today I was considering have a small punt on COLONEL MAK. It wouldn’t be a sizeable bet as the horse wasn’t running on it’s prefered ground, plus the low draw.

    What swayed me from the punt was David Barron’s comments:
    [b:jiv1h97x]Any rain would help his cause as he needs some cut in the ground. It is smashing ground up here–NOT SOFT ENOUGH FOR HIM”[/b:jiv1h97x]

    Of course, the horse steams in @ 33/1. From now on I will try to ignore the trainer’s comments.
    What a strange sport we are involved in whereby even the closest individual to the horse doesn’t know what is going on. I know it is the horse’s performance that is the unpredictable factor in gambling, but for the trainer to state for print that the horse needs soft is a major indicator in any betting pattern.

    regards,
