Specialisation - which are you?

[RussP]

Although I don't always practise what I preach, I am a believer that, to be a successful punter, you should try and concentrate on a small number of races.....in other words, be a specialist in certain race types. I favour big field handicap races as I don't particularly like betting on short priced horses. I get more buzz out of finding 10/1 winners than an Even money shot. Your speciality could be chase / hurdle, handicaps or not, grade (ie Class 1 / 2's), distances, no of runners - basically, anything So what's your speciality? If we can get 2 or 3 specialists in different areas, we may be able to more selective with our bets here on PL and, hopefuly, be more profitable in 2007. There is a poll included.....you can select as many options as you like:ok My preferences are for:- 1> BIG FIELD HANDICAP HURDLES (say 14 runners+) Res> BIG FIELD HANDICAP CHASES (say 12 runners+) Post your preferences here and I will collate all the results in a few days:ok (if you think I'm talking rubbish, feel free to post that too....that excludes comments from AK & Carl:lol )

Re: Specialisation - which are you? Just to add to the above..... *** If we can find enough contributors of different types on this thread, we could add a 'daily specialists thread' just purely as an information / reference point. Thoughts? ***
