Apart from Cheltenham, I very rarely bet on the jumps and stick to the flat. If things go as plan, then I intend to be out of the country when Cheltenham is on next year year. I don't want to get caught up again in all that hype, nonsense & those Walsh/Mullins horses going in left right & centre at odds to my mind you can't back them at.
Yes, you are probably right FACTS, I probably do bet in too many races, but it works for me. At the moment I have about £10k scattered around different bookmaking accounts (after a good August) and another £10k I could draw on if necessary to bet with - hopefully it won't come to that. My stakes are on average £80-£100 and I'm happy with variable level stakes. I don't make many bets below 2/1, maybe 3/1, & apart from photo finishes, stewards enquiries, I have had 2 odds on bets this year, one, a horse match bet and the other a horse to finish in the 1st 3 - they both lost. I might not back so much on the longer priced selections but the staking is still weighted in their favour, and when you do hit the inevitable losing run, your bank is a bit more protected than pure level stakes. If I see, what I think is a major rick, then I'm going to have more on, like in the case of Osaila. I intend to see the year out, & evaluate things after that, as regards staking. This is not a full time thing for me, (I run a seasonal business as well) even though I spend hours at it. Good luck. |

Fair enough mccoy carp if you felt it was a major rick then you were probably right to have that amount on as long as you don't over estimate your edge. As you have money in reserve as well then I think your staking plan looks fine though as you say this is your first year making a profit then best to be cautious imo. GL

I read earlier that a Brazilian jockey had a 89 losing streak last year and looks like winning the UK championship this year.

Does anyone keep records of sir tom's selections each year? Interesting to know how much up or down he is this year to a £1 stake and considering he had a 40/1 winner in the Scottish national I wonder if he is still in credit
