seems far harder than it should for June, can we blame global warming and strange weather? Or is it just one of those things, all systems etc inevitably have losing days? Or are my favourite trainers out of form? The latter certainly is true of Mark Johnston this month, he had no winners at Ascot where he usually has a 14%ish strike rate, his overall statistics for June read 8-115 7% -40.00 compared to 13% June 07. On his forum Mark Johnston Racing he states:
"Poor performance syndrome is how I used to describe it. Not sure what starts it but, when you don't win when expected, all the form lines are broken and it is hard to place the horses properly. Especially true with the 2yo's at present."
To soon to lose the faith, in 2007 Johnston had a poor July, 6% strike rate, followed by a stonking August, 20% +£48.69! So wath Johnstons runners for a return to form as a purple patch should be just around the corner
