The Equaliser Posted July 26, 2020 Share Posted July 26, 2020 (edited) One Trixie today and some win/ew bets 1.55 Asc Magic J (£1 win at 2/1) 2.45 Yk Jonah Jones 5/2 ( I hope that @MCLARKE isn't right about Frankie being useless in sprints) 3.40 Asc More Beautiful 6/4 (very strong in the market despite its flop last time) One £1.50 Trixie = £6 v £79.50 Other bets today 2.10 Yk Tintoretto 50p ew at 14/1 2.45 Yk Soldiers Minute 50p ew at 8/1 2.45 Yk Muscika 50p ew at=t 8/1 1.55 Asc Bullet Proof 50p ew at 13/2 2.30 Asc Country £1 win at 9/4 2.30 Asc Almania 50p win at 9/2 2.30 Asc Dash Of Spice 50p win at 8/1 3.05 Asc Agincout £1.50 win at 3/1 3.05 Asc shimmering 50p win at 10/1 3.40 Asc Santosha £1 win 4/1 3.40 Asc Caroline Dale £1 win at 7/2 4.15 Asc Tiger crusade £1 win at 7/4 4.15 Asc Campari £1 win at 10/3 4.15 Asc Sun Power 50p ew at 18/1 3.10 Cart Licklighter £2 win at 7/4 Singles stakes = £16 Multiples = £6 Total stakes = £22 Should be a very interesting afternoon if nothing else 3.40 Asc More Beautiful £3.70 at 2.74 = £6.12 poss return Couldn't resist it to try and get my Trixie money back Total stakes £25.70 Well, not a total disaster. @MCLARKE was right about Frankie, a complete Jonah in sprints. Luckily I had a little on Musika ew to dull the pain Not one winner in the Trixie and extra win bet of £3.70 on More Beautiful didn't work either. So a whitewash on the multiples and a £6 loss. The balance c/fwd is £643.67 (Bank £800) The cover bets in my singles worked out quite well though I did incur a small loss of £3.30. this means that the balance C/Fwd is now £355.74 (£400 bank) Looks like tomorrow's fayre is pretty ropey with only two class 3 races. I do drop down to Class 4 on occasions for my multiples but I wouldn't count on it.

Trotter Posted July 26, 2020 Share Posted July 26, 2020 (edited) Bit of chatter yesterday in the General Racing Chat thread about the old Fineform System and how it might be teaked to negate the obvious difficulties with it Basically the system involves awarding points based on last two form figures, C, D and CD wins, The glaring omissions being that it takes no account of Class or Going So I've loked at todays handicaps at York and Ascot and noted races with a clear top rated horse (no joint tops) and then looked to see if they should act on the going and have either won in todays Class or placed in a higher class These are the selections .......(prices bet365) Ascot 1.20 - Seen The Lyte 5/1 4.15 - Tiger Crsade 13/8 4.50 - Strait of Hormuz 9/2 York 2.10 - Right Action 14/1 3.55 - Mister Lambreys 3/1 4.30 - Global Spirit 13/2 Let's see how they get on ! One problem I encounted was my Class twaek because I feel you should include lightly raced horses that have won in the class below but might be on the upgrade. Might have to re-formulate this The consideration about Going is a bit subjective because you're using judgement as to whether the horse should act on it if the evidence is sparse but there we go. It's obviously not ideal to have subjective criteria in a system ........ If the above produces some winners I might stick with this for a few days, maybe with tweaks !

Very true ..... I suppose the only point is though that nowadays with the internet there are hundreds of systems and trends and tips readily available out there that they cancel each other out ....... every horse is going to be the subject of a trend, system or tip Anyway, welcome to the forum ! .......... ? I do miss the old Mordin website with the weekly reviews of racing in the UK, Ireland, France, Germany,. Italy ......... I used to study that religiously and make notes on the horses for future reference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zilzalian Posted July 29, 2020 Share Posted July 29, 2020 Yes he (Mordin) really was a bit of an eccentric, very clever man i followed him in the old SL weekender and again when RP took it over. thank you for the welcome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
