Xtc12 Posted May 19, 2018 Author Share Posted May 19, 2018 Update : Overall: First time in a while that GB profit has gone above the Irish profit. This is all down to the run I am on at the moment in Ireland 2 wins in the last 19 race days. Strike Rate in GB has just drifted above 40% have to be happy with that. Year 2 : The strike rate in Ireland tells the story, 20%, giving a negative return. Strike Rate in GB @ 45% sticks out even for a small quantity of 57 bets. Will come back with the stats on the doubles later. At a glance it is still in profit but a dreadful year 2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
