Since I started collating my own form records some 3 years ago I have found that the couple of weeks either side of new year can throw up some weird but not so wonderful results so I resolved last year to suspend betting for that month & it did save me a few bob.

I've put it down to an overall drop off in the class of horse racing as many owners, trainers & jockeys take time off, leaving others less talented to fill the void. In addition extreme temperatures never help.

So I am interested to find out if others feel the same way or just forge on ahead regardless.

Oh & happy xmas...or is it merry new year?
