Baffled by handicapper’s take on Beresford Stakes

One of the toughest gigs in racing has to be working as a handicapper.

In lots of ways it’s a thankless task, although if it comes with reasonably big bucks that might take a lot of the pain out of it!

Essentially handicappers are in a game where they basically have to express an opinion each and every day. The chances of getting it wrong are clearly greater than getting it right and it is a task that is far beyond the capacity of most — and one I wouldn’t want to do no matter how much dosh was on the table.
