SensiSteve Posted May 23, 2006 Share Posted May 23, 2006 Re: Trialling something..... Top Tips yesterday. what is it with you and Super Mondays? Maybe you should just do Mondays?. I followed you so must of lost my jinx. I ended a 11 day losing streak on Sunday. Then followed your picks yesterday. Only a modest 10 pt stake from me though, which returned just under 40pts. So i thank you!:cheers Out of interest a pal of mine was eyeing up those 3 yesterday and another favourite also at windsor. He likes serious betting so put down 100 pts on a lucky 15 on your 3 and the 7.40 or 8.40 cant remember which, but it returned him 1700 pts. He was to put it mildly a tad happy in the boozer last night. Wouldnt catch me putting down 100 pts covering 4 races. Asking for trouble in my book. Good Luck today Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kanga Posted May 24, 2006 Share Posted May 24, 2006 Re: Trialling something.....

FleetFanatic Posted May 24, 2006 Author Share Posted May 24, 2006 Re: Trialling something..... .....7 18 of the bets have been at SPs of odds-on. Of these' date=' 12 have won. This means those bets have not been particularly profitable. In fact less I make it less than one point net profit from these 18 bets. [b']Suggests this category is really NOT worth backing at level stakes, unless perhaps you could obtain better early prices..... .....So apart from perhaps avoiding the races with short price favs, I can't find any way to filter the races that might increase the profitability, or cut down the work-load of analysis for me, I'm afraid. :okStill wondering if I should avoid races where the forecast favourite is odds-on? If I did, and one of the subsequent selections ended up odds-on at sp, that would be something we would simply have to accept. The reason I ask is that most of our better days involved winners at above evens, even if there was an odds-on winner involved. As a comparison, there's been days when we've had 2 out 3 win, but both a odds-on and ended with a loss still! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fordyboy20 Posted May 24, 2006 Share Posted May 24, 2006 Re: Trialling something..... Yeh personally i dont think there is no real advantage with the odds on selections as you said 2 could win and still no profit. take a look at ur results n wrk out a average price or summit. that way when selections come in more rewarding but as i say thats only my view.

a1ehouse Posted May 24, 2006 Share Posted May 24, 2006 Re: Trialling something..... Still wondering if I should avoid races where the forecast favourite is odds-on? I'd be inclined to agree FF. I've seen more odds on fav's get beat by rank outsiders it's unbelievable. 2 examples from today: Bollin Thomas 2/5!! To The Top 4/9!!

For example 2/3 win at evens: 5pts returns 10pts - twice, giving 20pts. 3pts double returns 12 points, making 32 pts in total and a profit of 7pts. It has to be evens as a minimum realistically. Obviously, I can't know for sure what the sp will be but I think I'll stop rating races where the forecast favourite is odds-on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fordyboy20 Posted May 24, 2006 Share Posted May 24, 2006 Re: Trialling something..... yeh i agree evens at a minimum. Also with your all rated races section 1. if there is 2/3 horses over 5/1 what about doing them in a e/way selections doubles,treble? i dno if this as been tried just a idea. but your doing well im sure once the weather picks up we will see some improvements! keep up the good work!
