MCLARKE Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 In general how many winners would you need before you are happy that a system is working and that the results are not just down to randomness ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well youd expect say 3 races in 10 to be won by donkeys or scratch your head races so if your averaging 6 to 7 good results in 10 then you e got something .....I'd say 20 races to be sure and your want 12 to 14 good results to be sure it's not just a good run ....by good even placed horses count ......all I'm looking for really is to string 2 or 3 good priced horses together in doubles at the festival ....2 x 16/1 is over 500pts to 2pt stakes so that's the aim for me .....if I can get placed horses consistently in the big hcap races then the big win becomes doable .... everything im doing now is solely with that in mind ....im learning from every race I rate Zico10 and MCLARKE 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well good luck ....I'm just loving each result cos I can tell what's working or not working then cross things off .....the list is shortening to a few chosen .....I ditched the previous form figure as it was taking the place of other important factors and the stats were saying it wasnt working as well as I expected Pirate53 and vikki37 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MCLARKE Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 There seems to be a lot of success on here with top rated selections which is good but is anybody finding success with "value" selections. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not me so far. A big advantage of rating a race is that it gives you a good feel for all the runners. Most of the value selections look, sound and smell like dogs. Conclusion.....they're probably dogs!! MCLARKE 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richard-westwood Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 The value bets are of particular importance when they are rated top 2 or 3 .....you'll get better bets in the big handicaps as the value will be better hidden and prices naturally higher .....in theory if you get the form ratings accurate and you back the value bets rated top 2 or 3 ew you should do pretty well long term ....that's something that will become obvious long term ....in the meantime everything bounces off accurate form ratings ...we are getting there ....vast improvements since we first started across the board ....there are big things to come ....I'm sure of it Villa Chris, Wildgarden, Pirate53 and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will definitely go ahead . Can’t see the weekend race card surviving though, although they are on about getting the big races like the bet fair hurdle and Denman chase rearranged for the following week if they can. I’d like to see how Metier runs in the hurdle race as he’s this side of the ponds main fancy for the supreme . richard-westwood 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
