    Don't know if you have any back stats, but have you tried a price cap ? Around 80% winners will be single fig odds, with most of the rest double fig but very few triple fig (100/1 +).

    For pulled up horses there have been 2,998 runners at odds greater than 33/1 with only 9 winners and an AE of 0.56. I would set a price cap of 33/1.

    At odds of 66/1 or over there has been 1 winner from 1,998 runners so I would certainly avoid these.

    No, but when you say things like "you won't go far wrong by backing odds on favourites this is clearly not true.

    My Best of The Best selections bear testimony to the fact that one will lose money by backing odds on favourites.

     I posted this last Saturday.

    "One of the safest strategies out there is to back horses that are very short odds. If you had backed all horses this year at odds of 8/13 or less then you would have had 447 winners from 633 runners and a profit of 3%. If you had restricted it to odds of 1/4 or less you would have had 109 winners from 120 runners and a profit of 11%."

    So why do you claim my statement is clearly not true?

    The small sample you have posted doesn't really prove anything I'm afraid.
