Answer 9

Teh Newmarket rumour mill was talking about a colt of Sir Michael Stoute's just before Christmas called CONFRONT:

However, when the entries came out he was not included!  That is not to sya he won't run, but the fact that they have not kept him in may indicate that they don't think he will stay a mile and a half or that something is wrong with him.

He definitely seems to be ahorse to keep on the right side of.

Answer 10

Its almost 6 months away, I'm still enjoying the jumps season. No-one in their right mind would be having a bet on the Derby at this time of year. Factors affecting results are weather, entries, form and countless other aspects.

I wouldn't bet until the day of the race unless the bookmaker is offering a 'Non-Runner - No Bet' concession, which means if your horse doesn't run you get your money back, although, the price you obtain at that stage will in all likelihood still be a point or two shy of whats available on the day.

That first answer made me smile, not the type of tips you had in mind no doubt?
