Liam, I'm fairly sure that the Swinton meeting at Haydock has been the conclusion in previous Seasons. Entirely Sint's decision though - as thread chiefGrin

Report SOULDANCER • May 2, 2012 9:00 AM BST
Agree, impressive. I'd be interested to know how profits pan out re. ante-post opposed to day of race bets. Anyone better organised than me have any idea?
Report sintonian • May 2, 2012 9:26 AM BST
I find day of race bets are more profitable, but that stands to reason given the nature of ante-post punting.

One thing I need to rectify is staking. No exaggeration as it's all on here but if I backed Win only for the same stakes,e.g, 2pts win not 1 eachway, then i'd have over 100pts profit more. Shocking staking really. Just goes to show the psycology of this game is all important.
