July 2017 newsletter
Submitted by Robin on 2. July 2017 - 16:34The biggest topic in Czech racing in June was How to make sense of the Czech Derby? It was a weird race. There were 16 runners, and 7 of the first 8 were total outsiders, offered at 20:1 or more by our miserly on-course bookmaker! Of the first 6 horses at the halfway point, none finished higher than 10th! Of course, there is no clear logical explanation for a result like this, and there is no need to expect one.
