Confidence rating

There’s not much value to be found today, which makes it harder to record to a profit. It also makes me a bit nervous given the weather forecasted. Races 2, 3 and 9 look to be ones to avoid, while race 5 is also pretty even. The derby form looks like one to follow going forward, no matter the result.
