BETTING ON TWO YEAR OLDS reviews the key factors that have a strong influence on a juvenile's chance of winning or losing. For example, a racehorse's breeding tells us a great deal about its chances of performing creditably as a two year old. Breeding is therefore of central importance to decisions relating to whether a horse should be backed or layed. Trainers, of course, also have a major influence. Some have a high strike rate for their horses running first time out. Others do much better with their runners second time. Racecourses are another important dimension. There are courses that suit particular horses and it is worth knowing which are which. It is also essential to understand how the performance of jockeys on juveniles varies in some significant ways. Another factor is weight. All these facts have significance for the punter - and you can learn how to take advantage of them. Find out:
