I think most of us have at least one favourite horse that is currently racing. There can be any number of reasons. Here are just a few:

1. You keep backing the horse and keep making money on it. Some punters back a horse every race it runs and if they select the right horse they make a killing. Just like any punters who backed Saturday's Doncaster Handicap winner, Vision and Power for a win in every one of its races would be returning a profit of more than 100% on turnover.

2. The horse has guts and never gives in. It might get trapped wide or might get bumped in a race but unlike many horses which give up and wait till their next race, this horse fights on.

3. Or you might love the way the horse nearly always wins those close finishes, like the way Octagonal kept on winning.

4. Or you might like the way a horse wins when it's up against the odds and not expected to win.
