Profit is the aim and the first principles applied to all my selections are time, class, weight, trainer and jockey ratings. Everyone has their own systems and methods regarding betting. My own approach, which has evolved over many years, means I won't take a price below 2/1 under any circumstances. The reason is simple. Most of my methods involve a minimum strike rate of 30% overall. Horses below 2/1, even the winners, will only erode the profit over time. Sometimes I will tip/back a favourite - if it is 3/1 or 7/2 say, but as time goes on it becomes clear: there are many, many more bad favourites than good ones. Those wily bookies will often make a horse favourite and create the illusion that it has been heavily backed. Have fun and take care.

The rider has found it a bit tougher on the turf this year and his championship aspirations may have been somewhat deferred. He still looks likely to be a truely top jockey though and this one, from a yard that has a rich history of success, looks set to go well with some good time figures and a run in the Derby behind him.

Down the field in the Derby and it is unusual for Gosden to run a horse so soon afterwards. That is a clear indicator that the horse is very well and if he runs like the rest of the team this week, looks sure to make his presence felt.

Venetian Sun would be a consideration but for the low draw. Unless the course executive have done some very fancy watering last night, the low draws on the straight course may as well have stayed at home if, results from the last three days are a guide. This one is short but clearly classy and will have improved a stone from first run.

There may be a slight concern over the form of the yard but the trainer owuld not run her if not entirely happy. Just the one Wathnan runner here so Doyle had no need to deliberate! She may be no Bluestocking but she has a similar profile and market prominence suggests she won't be out of place in this grade.

Doyle has a chance in the jockey race this week and although he was on the wrong one in the big race yesterday, he is a sound judge and an excellent rider and tactician. This son of Camelot out of a Galileo mare has already shown guts and determination typical of the family and the trainer will probably be sweating up more than Los Angeles did yesterday.

It is 10/1 bar one so the fav looks rock solid according to the market and I assume a pile of liabilities re the Ballydoyle 2yo's this week. Some good prospects for a value EW play although my bets are almost always win bets below 25/1. Wise Approach is the sole CD winner and Dickensian has given that form a boost with his 2nd in yesterday's Windsor Castle. He can turn around the York form with First Legion now dropping back to 5f.

Big hope for another small yard. One of the proven, classier entries, she won a £40k listed race at York and would be near fav if trained in one of the big yards. Hampered at the start that day and had to come from behind. She will probably stay further (her sire was a 1m classic winner in Ireland) so a more prominent display today would not necessarily be a negative.

The trainer reckons this is his best chance of a winner at the meeting. Always a lottery with so many lightly raced animals and fillies at that. The fav will be short based on the Coventry result yesterday but 2yo's can improve at all kinds of rates and there are numerous alternatives at much bigger prices.
