alancraik Posted April 9, 2021 Share Posted April 9, 2021 I use a database to follow certain trainers and horses, after a bit of research (more seemed to place than win) decided to back them using an old staking plan called the steady drip. All bets place only on Betfair and will use the highest available place for that race ( 2 - 7). Starting off with £2 per bet. Todays selections 7.40 Kempton 1 My Frankel Kingscote, Richard Stoute, Sir Michael 2.10 Leicester 2 Ensyaaby (IRE) ONeill, Dane Tregoning, M P 6.55 Wexford 7 Getaday (IRE) Mullins, D E Jr, T J Nagle Xtc12, harry_rag and Zico10 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harry_rag Posted April 9, 2021 Share Posted April 9, 2021 Good luck Alan, will follow with interest. Are the numbers (1, 2 and 7) the number of places or just the racecard numbers? It would be good if you could state the number of places for each selection. Also, can you state the odds (unless, of course, it's settled at SP). Sorry if the questions are a bit daft, horses on BF not exactly my area of expertise! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alancraik Posted April 10, 2021 Author Share Posted April 10, 2021 Harry 2 -7 refers to the place market, I will always try to have the bet on the highest place market available. Unable to state the odds as they are not usually matched until just before off. hope this helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xtc12 Posted April 11, 2021 Share Posted April 11, 2021 @alancraik All the best with this. I started paper tracing something like this recently.......your results yesterday has put a bit of doubt in my mind, 4 selections one loser and a loss for the day. The steady drip staking plan will that allow for this ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alancraik Posted April 12, 2021 Author Share Posted April 12, 2021 Xtc12 I had a look at this yesterday before you mentioned this in your post, I had got my calcs wrong. I need average odds of a minimum of 1.4 to break even. There is a rachet method in the steady drip spreadsheet, once you reach a target the stakes increase. Another thing is that when the stakes get higher it is unlikely they would be matched on betfair. I am not one to give up yet so starting afresh today. Todays selections, only a bet if I get at least odds 1.5 6.20 Wolverhampton 1 Sir Rodneyredblood Ghiani, Marco Jenkins, J R Wildgarden and Xtc12 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
