Racing Ahead: May edition – Flat season!

We bid farewell to the great AP McCoy and welcome the new Flat season with the 1000 and 2000 Guineas at Newmarket drawing ever nearer.

In this month’s issue: Paul Ferguson elects ten horses certain to dazzle on the flat, Matt Mitter tells you how to back your horse to lose, plus Simon Nott delivers his tale from the ring at a wet Wednesday night at Kempton.

Here’s what else features in May’s mag:

• Jonathan Powell laments the way the Jockey’s Championship has been shortened
• Nick Pullen – Trainers to follow for a merry month of May
• Irish Scene – Tony Keenan picks out his hot-shots from across the Irish Sea
• Why should Cheltenham increase their prize money further? Stick to the training, winning, and the glory that comes with that argues Mark Coton
• Photo Special – A fantastic snap captured at the Grand National
• Betting Gods – The pro tipsters take a look at the Betfred Middleton Stakes at York
• Four-time Champion tipster Paul Jacobs selects the horses that have caught his eye over the past month
• Charlie McCann casts his ante-post eye over The Derby, with an 8/1 fancy
• Jeremy Grayson has unearthed some progressing winners clearing the fences at the smaller venues
• Racing Trends – Andy Newton looks for clues in the record books ahead of the Chester Cup
