Following on from a previous posting about finding guaranteed winners before you bet on them, I've narrowed down the characteristics to look for tomorrow in the Stradbroke.

1. It will have four legs.
2. It will eat lots of hay.
3. It will past the post first.

If that doesn't help, box 1,2,3, and 4. They are the best horses and will at least give you a show for your money.

And so I can boast on Monday about how good I am at pickng horses.......Lord Essex is the stand out.
