I was going to give up my place in the KO Cup to the next one on the list but forgot to notify @MCLARKE, so i will just pull out here and @Carole-dawney can continue, she will do a better job anyway! Packing it in a little earlier this year as my dog had 7 puppies 4 weeks ago and they're really hard work and i'm knackered. So good luck everyone over the jumps this winter and will hopefully be back in the spring. 

A bit like @Zilzalian, i tend to skip past sam's posts although interested in the science, it's more of a time thing. I have always thought he was running some sort of experiment (paper trading) hence no p/l and was not actually betting on the selections, thought he said that way back, but i might be mistaken. Glad you took up the challenge, i've always been in the corner of picking winners of certain races shouldn't be that difficult, (although my Lucky 15 balance this year would beg to differ!) especially if you pick 2 or 3 in those races, but of course, the odds will be too low for me, but finding them at double figure odds is the real challenge and one i still enjoy chasing. Anyway, good luck with the challenge. 

It's a bit tongue in cheek really, I could just pick a favourite in every race and meet the challenge but I would never actually bet that way. All the selections are actual system selections and all are forecast at 4/1 or above so it is still a bit of a challenge.

Might help to put the glass of wine and cheese burger down while bending and stretching pal.

Do my aerobics every morning never helps me get any lucky 15 up 🏋🏻‍♀️😂

Been busy lately so missed this interesting debate. I personally tend to just scroll past Sams posts as they are far to "busy" for me, but that's not to denigrate him or his posts. But take on board @MCLARKE and @harry_rag points about basically dominating the site which i personally am aware of when i posts stuff so restrain myself.
I will say the physics angle free energy et al has been well documented and there have been many books (American) written on this angle, Nick Mordin used to highlight them a lot in his systems columns, I remember reading one about anaerobic and aerobic energy which was quite interesting as regarding filly's and mares, he also pointed to studies about gambling addictions and how to overcome them by backing 2 or more horses in every race and as he says there is no such thing as a gambling problem just a losing problem.
I would say to Sam though if you are not keeping records then it seems to go against your "scientific" approach which suggests to me that you are simply relaying 3rd party information.
Anyway it is all interesting stuff to debate.

Probably best we draw a line under it and move on, focus all our energies on finding winners again. Shouldn’t take too much give and take both ways for us all to rub along. 
Only fair to acknowledge that most people chose not to enter the fray and would no doubt prefer the resumption of normal service.
With a bit of luck my next active foray into the racing forum can be to thank someone for tipping me up one of my occasional racing winners, run the next lucky 15 competition or explain the maths of yet another bet type in tedious detail that only @MCLARKE enjoys.

As usual you say what I was thinking 

I disagree. Its like a group of people sat around in the bookies having a civilised conversation about the bets they've had and the bets their going to have next and someone coming in with a megaphone and shouting over the top of them.
Negative to the forum? That's a "yes" from me. Nothing to offer? Clearly not the case, plenty of value in the actual race reading. Just needs to dial the ego down a notch or two.

If you are not in it to win, what are you in it for ? I can only assume that you are aiming to get to the poor house. 
No doubting your enthusiasm, and it is impossible to pick winners all the time, but I would suggest - Keep a detailed log of your bets and why you placed them ( system, jockey, trainer, market move, or any other thing you look for), you will then be able to see more clearly where you do well, and more importantly, where you can eliminate the bad/poor bets. Try to be a little more selective. The shotgun approach will always hit some winners, but you will be able to increase stakes ( and win more) if you adopt the sniper approach and focus in on your target.

I don't think anybody denies he is knowledgeable but he does he seem very blinkered and doesn't listen to advice. The only way I have made a success of my betting over the years is to take note of what others say and use it where appropriate.
I certainly don't have the time or inclination to go through his selections. I think most of us find it very odd that despite all the effort he obviously puts in he doesn't keep records. I must admit I find the conversation mildly entertaining, it is what having a forum is all about.
Ok, I'm up for a challenge, I'll put my system selections up (often there are several in one race) and see how I get on. 

You can list all the winners and the SPs, so why not publish your profit / loss ?
It will be very helpful to us all on this forum and put an end to the debate.

Just pop on now and again to say hi just so we know you are still alive and kicking. Good luck with the pups pal.

Have good winter mate see you next year 👍

Put a claim in 😂

I would have done the same for @LeMale but he sacked me as his PA. One little indiscretion with the photocopier and my buttocks and I was toast.  I just don’t understand the modern workplace anymore.
