Trimming the Hedge

[MickyG]

In this thread I will be starting with a £10 bank, and looking for races where I can back a horse in the morning with a view to laying it off mid race for an equal profit win or lose. I will place both bets with Betfair at the same time (and document the odds requested below), and set the unmatched Lay bet to Keep in play. Hopefully mid race the odds will steam in and take the lay bet. I have created a photobucket account to keep screenshots to display on this thread when the Lay bet has been matched. I have tried this before with mixed results - so going to see if I can make better selections this time. Staking plan will be using 20% of the current bank each bet whether win/lose. This should hopefully keep the bank alive for some time in the event of the Lay bets not being matched and losing. ** Projected/Actual profit is after 5% Betfair commission.
