Long shots kick the bucket


Recommended Posts

Ok gotta be quick before the first race goes off, so i will post more about my little system after the days racing, but basically its a system that goes for longshots, done a little history on it and it seems to work but have not done any extended analysis of the results so it really is trial and error, but here goes.

I have not really worked out if they are best to do place or just straight out wins but for this little trial i will do wins only, also i would only ever get the prices from an exchange simply because on longshots they are always much higher. Probably all lose now anyway. good luck anyway.

Not a bad start i suppose though it would have been tastier if one of the placed horses would have gone in, a very quick analysis of the days results shows me that there were just the 3 winners but at prices that gave a profit, in terms of placed horses there were 9 out of 14 and would have returned a nice profit on the day. Also all the above winners and placed horses were generally at much better odds on betfair which would increase the profits i am sure, as an example 2 of the 3 winners were at much better prices today on betfair and the lowest price for a place on any of the horses today was 2.24 which was a loser anyway and if you would have done the places only on betfair you would in effect of had 9 winners from 14 at prices from 2.28 - 4.7, again not too bad. The problem with using exchanges is that it is very hard to pinpoint the price on here, if as an example i saw a horse at 10s when the bookies had it at 7s only my word is available as proof of that and therefore for no clouding of the price i will use sp, but please be aware that the odds are better for longshots on the exchanges. Anyway like i said this is really trial and error and maybe at some stage i will keep a running record of placed horses but for now its win only and a winning first day. Good Luck all. PS if any result or my figures are wrong please let me know.

Re: Long shots kick the bucket Hello to onedunme and ralphie7 and thank you for your kind words and encouragement :D Ralphie7 i did work the profit out on betfair places but in all fairness some of the prices i managed to grab were a bit generous and would never have been available at traditional high street bookies and not knowing the protocol on here etc i decided to avoid posting any prices up from betfair and also the win prices were also a lot better on betfair and again i avoided using those prices for this little trial. But what i have done is keep a record of the prices and depending on how this all pans out over the next week i may well start to include the place profit and loss, i suspect that the places will pay more as long as they are straight place bets as oppose to the traditional ew, but in answer to your question Ralphie doing the direct places on betfair yesterday would have returned over 20pts profit, not sure what it would have been at sp @ 1/5 the odds but expect it would have been significantly lower but still more than the win profit, phew, hope that covers it all. i will post todays system picks at around 12.0 clock. Oh both ONEDUNME and Ralphie 7 i have been following both your threads as well and if i get to your standards then i will be happy.

I am a little disapointed that the system has thrown up so many qualifiers today, its not always like this, i may have to add in another filter at some point but that means going back over previous results etc so that will take time. With regards to todays runners the lowest place price on betfair for any of the above horses is 2.28 and the lowest price for any winner is 6 and the highest place price is 5.1 and the highest win price is 34 so there is definately some juicy prices to be had, though i have found that on longshots the prices mainly seem to go out so waiting until near the off is probably the best thing to do. Also please note that due to non runners there are 2, 7 runner races in the list above, the 4.15 at lingfield and the 4.05 at carlise, however if you are doing place betting betfair places will pay out on 3 places, but double check first. good luck to you all. If anything is wrong above please let me know

For those that do the wins only it was obviously a bad day for the system, a bit of seconditis, for those on places only it appears there were some nice prices even though only 6 out of 18 came in (though on betfair you would have been paid on 3rd place on the 4.15 lingfield, i got 3.75 to place and that would have meant 7 places out of 18) I will continue to do this as a win only project but am increasingly becoming convinced that place only on betfair is the way to go. early days yet.

Re: Long shots kick the bucket Hi 247. I followed these selections as place bets today and it seems it could well be the way to go. However yesterday did bring up a few decent priced winners which would be missed with place bets. Give it a while and then have a look back at how different methods would have faired. Maybe look at some staking plans as well and see how they look. Does look an interesting system however. Keep it up Andy

Re: Long shots kick the bucket I agree. Dont know what your staking amounts are is but I wonder if it would be worth a couple of quid to win and three quid for a place or something. I've had some pretty big priced winners in the last three weeks and the price on betfair has ALWAYS been well bigger than the SP price. On the down side, the place price is usually less than a quarter the win odds so its difficult to know what to do. Just as an example, on Sunday I backed pennys crown which won at 20/1 and I got nearer 27/1 on betfair after commision and, on the same day (although it didnt win) bens revenge finished 2nd at 25/1 and Id had a couple of quid on it at 54/1. I know we all bet with different stakes and the downside is that the minimum bet is £2 on betfair but my view is that the ideal situation would be to split the bet between win and place and stick with betfair. My only other question (being purely selfish) would be, what time of day would be the earliest you could post your picks punter, as Im usually at work and cant get on them:( :lol

Re: Long shots kick the bucket Hello Andyirwin, thanks for your support hope we have a better day today with some winners, in terms of stakes etc i am doing both win and place on betfair at the moment but because it is all trial and error at the moment i am doing level stakes as opposed to a staking plan, may well sort out one, i intend to spend the day today analysing past results and see what crops up. ONEDUNME, you are so right about better prices on betfair for big price winners and if you wait long enough you can pick up some good place prices but you right the place prices sometimes can leave a lot to be desired, as an example if a horse on betfair is priced at 10s the place price will reflect that but as soon as the win price is pushed out the place price seems unable to keep pace with it and then the place price looks out of sync, but i still think that in line with sp it is favorable but i would have to defer to you on that as i have no analytical proof of that. For this project onedunme i am just doing £2 wins and £2 place but i think from today onward i will do £2 win £4 place and see how that goes, i will try to post the selections as early as possible but i fear that it will almost always be around midday, i am self employed but have a partner and we tend to be fairly busy on the mornings, but i will try mate :D Finally chaps i have decided to use both betfairs and sp prices, i only use betfair for this and therefore think its only fair, i am not too sure how i will post it all on here but basically from today onwards betfairs prices will be reflected and maybe the place price, i will have to see. I will post the selections up at midday today (sorry onedunme, havnt even got the papers yet:cry better go get them now)

An awful day what can i say, 10 selections, 10 straight losers, no excuses just a very bad day, not even a single placing. I am not too down, this is the nature of this type of systems, if you go for long shots you have to expect a run of losers, but i must confess that when i did the past results on the system i never had 10 straight losers on place as well, though i should have expected it, it is always the case that when you go public with a system it tends to go all wrong. But i will perservere and hope for a couple of big price winners :D I will post up todays selections as soon as i can.

As you can see another poor day, maybe i found the perfect lay system :D ONEDUNME thanks for the words of encouragement, i absolutely do intend to keep this going, i obviously have a cut off point where i will have to accept that the system is a dodo but we are nowhere near it yet, i have to give it a chance to unfold one way or the other, strange thing is though in the little bit of back history it showed a healthy profit, sods law really. Anyway i have caught a little bug and have a little bit of sickness so i may be running a little late posting up todays selection, but i will get up as soon as i can. Good luck all today.
