Hi all,
For those with access to the Racing Post, there was a strong piece from Betting Editor Keith Melrose on the Berkshire Winter Million.
Keith makes the case that Windsor is the meeting to watch, with the weekend regularly producing horses who go on to win much bigger races and he’s absolutely right.
