Saturday’s pick goes in the…

3.20 Uttoxeter:

Before I post the daily selection, just a quick reminder of how I operate the service. Generally, I’ll identify and share the selection in the evening before the following day’s race and I then add a detailed write-up later on that night/next morning.

Those happy to take the early price on trust can do so, whilst some might prefer to wait for my reasoning. As I fit the early service in around my family life, I can’t give an exact timing on the posts, so I suggest you follow us on Twitter and/or Facebook for instant notifications of a published pick.

…trainer Henry Daly’s NH handicap class droppers are 23/124 (18.6% SR) for 62.2pts (+50.2% ROI) since 2012. These figures include the following of interest today…

• those dropping just 1 class : 18/98 (18.4%) for 48.7pts (+49.7%)

• and those placed 3rd LTO are 5/10 (50%) for 18pts (+180%)
