Remember all the pompous stuff yesterday about preferring a small bet on a medium-priced winner to a large bet on a hot thing? Scrap it. I am, like yer man the Bard quoted, a feather for each wind that blows.
I have betting principles alright. If you don’t like them I have others, especially after I read a piece last weekend which said that if you haven’t made money at Cheltenham over the past few years, given the plethora of winning favourites, you’re some feckin’ eejit. (I paraphrase.)
