FAVOURITE WAS A NON-RUNNER! One of the most memorable Derbys for the wrong reasons, says Daqman, as he warns punters not to follow the form. It was Christmas Day come early for the few but even the many got lucky when the horse they made favourite was declared a non-runner!

DAQMAN ELEVEN OAKS-DAY HIT: Daqman was batting just short of the boundary with seconds (Respond and Legacy Link) on the Oaks card yesterday but his Seagulls Eleven (WON 5-2) pulled his team through for a 2.50 points profit on the day.

SOFT TOUCH OR HOPES DASHED? The opening race at Epsom on Oaks Day today is a big-field 5f Dash for three-year-olds, a minefield handicap for punters, yet they will be glad of it to check out the going and whether there is an advantage in the draw, as they split near side, middle and maybe even far rail.

DAQMAN STEADY AS A ROCK: Daqman’s bid for six winning naps in eight days failed by a neck yesterday when Gatehouse (15-8) was touched off but our man was later on the mark with Rock Of England (WON 4-1).

WEEK OF FIVE WINNING NAPS: Daqman landed back-to-back naps yesterday, his fifth winning best bet in seven days, three of them supernaps.
