@The Equaliser yesterday you said this.
"The favourites challenge is just a bit of fun. My main L15 will have "Players" in them i.e horses ranked between 3/1 - 9/1. Michael @MCLARKE has been spending a lot of his former prize money on lots of L15's. The question is which one to follow? I dread to think how much members have been spending on all these L15's. Some, must be losing quite a bit"
Yesterday Micheal spent 6points today 7.5 points correct me if i am wrong, today with your lucky 15 you have spent 7points.
So here is the questions you should ask your self. what are the possible returns on his investment compared to yours given this is what you posted on chat "3.50 Red Nakano 1 pt win at 6.8 and cover bet of 1 pt on Zarga at 2.86 for 0.84 profit".
Micheal has spent 7.5 points today if he doesn't get one winner he will have lost £7.50 lets return later to see what his returns actually are it my well be a loss but how many chances does his bets have to turn a profit (by my reckoning he only needs 1 double) compared to your bets?
"Michael @MCLARKE has been spending a lot of his former prize money on lots of L15's." this is the key line in your flawed thinking. He is spending "profits" think about that for a while. What are you spending? Like i said previously I just cant see how it is possible to stop your loses they will just grow and grow if you carry on with what your doing.
Footnote- you just backed 2 losers in 1 race.
Well, I did have the possibility of winning 773 points if the L15 and acca came up and all for just 2 points.
I would love to be funding my bets from winnings but alas I am able to do so as I have a YTD loss of -110.68 points
I know you don't like the idea of backing more than one horse in a race but as far as I'm concerned it is perfectly reasonable if a decent profit can be made on the event. I really fancied Nakano (The Brigadier's Nap) to win but thought Zarga to be a real threat. Had Nakano won it would have paid for my L15 with some profit on the day.
I take your point though.
It takes me ages to check through the selections, at least 4 hours today. By the time I have them ready for staking the race(s) can be over. I missed Onigiri (can't believe that Derek Thompson is still employed to call races when he can't even pronounce the names of horses ). I also missed Pledgeofalliegance; how did it get to 9/2??)
Anyway, I am trying to speed up the selection process.
If I'm around when Michael @MCLARKE posts up his L15's and if I can make the time I will try to check out his selections and produce just one L15 from them by checking them out in my own way. It is the bane of my life to try and check out a tip to see if it is a worthwhile bet. I can't just follow and copy other people's selections, I like to check them out for myself.
Many thanks for your helpful advice.

7 points staked today
RESULTS UPDATE
Just 1 winner today but at least this secured a profit of 3.51 pts with my nap winning for me. MTD -40.33 & MTD -110.68

That Rule4 looks like a bit of a bummer for @Johnrobertson he now needs a 4/1 winner to win the most winners comp. Good luck to him
