Derby Day. For me this is the most exciting day of the year, and the one I wait for. I have spent hours and hours watching replays and doing the form in preparation, and am thinking that there will be some value to found in amongst the big fields. I am going to enjoy today!
But before we look at today, let’s look back at Wednesday’s racing. In the main, there were some very small fields and for most of the meetings it was tricky to find value. Checking out the results for each package and tipping style:
