For those of you who want to hear my thoughts on the jockeys title and horses to follow, I have some bad news.

I find both subjects incredibly boring, so I won't waste my time, and yours, by going through the motions here.

I am being serious.

And that will be a common theme in my Betfair columns; if I don't have anything constructive to add then I will keep quiet. The worst thing people in this sport can do when writing these columns is to talk drivel, or say something for effect - that they neither mean or truly believe -just to fill space.

Punters, and readers, will soon see through that.

To state the obvious, my aim is to do the best job I can, and too many things can go wrong with horses to look long term.

And how can I give you a horse to follow when I don't know how it will progress this spring, what it will be racing against, or on what ground and over which trip, or from what handicap mark?

So not only do I find it boring, I think it is pretty bloody stupid as well.

Something up-to-date and immediate is far more worthwhile, and one of the regular features in the column this year will see me picking out horses from other yards that have particularly impressed me.

And the first horse to get the ball rolling is Midsummer Sun.

I didn't ride in the race that it won at Lingfield on Saturday but I watched it from the weighing room and I loved the way it extended for Ian when asked for its effort.

It did very well to win considering it still looked green and raced three wide throughout, and it broke the track record, too.

It won that handicap mark of 94 and the half-brother to Midday looked a Group horse to me, as long as it keeps sound and healthy.
