with odds on shots. Anyone got any stats for last year or so? I'd imagine you could make money by laying all of them blind. The stable might well top the table for beaten odds on shots. How unlucky can you get?

It all seems so odd. I just can't understand it. Has Fitzgerald still got a tipping line by the way?

i would say w mullins and j gosden would be close to the top for odds on shots beaten

Maybe but they are stables who run a hell of a lot of horses so percentage wise I doubt it. Henderson often goes days without a runner. Must be very frustrating for his owners. He pretty much threw in the towel for the trainers' championship a month or more ago when he said he wouldn't be engaging a serious jockey this year.

He was actually in profit up until today for odds on shots in 2015. What sort of a sample size made you so sure he was one of the worst?

What a preposterous suggestion!

Funny how some people associate Kipling with cake making rather than our national poet. A cultural thing I guess.

OK PJAY. I'd better do some homework because that doesn't seem right to me. Just being lazy and was hoping someone else had done the research. I've always been a great fan of the Henderson stable especially in the great Dunwoody years when he was regularly champion trainer. Then Fitzgerald arrived and the stable went downhill. It picked up the year Fitzgerald left but is in decline again now.

But you're misunderstanding or failing to recognise how SPs work. You're not going to get any trainer who is consistently profitable or not at odds on.

His form or lack of it doesn't really come into it either.

I never back odds on Pjay. It's always difficult to determine if Henderson is in form or not. Things change from day to day and back again in that stable. Sps have nothing to do with it. I've been backing horses for over 50 years so I'm not a novice.

If his horses don't deserve to go off at odds on they won't go off at odds on kipling.

This year he has had more odds on winners than Nicholls. A higher successful strike rate than most and up to today, he was in profit. It doesn't matter if he's 'in form' or not.

its a matter of opinion if a horse deserves to be odds on or not ,its not factual regardless of which stable.

I think you will find that Lay P McManus shows a healthy profit with his odds on shots.

For the last 3 years he's -0.01 to level stakes. I don't know why people are attributing odds to a trainer/owner. It doesn't work like that at all, certainly not over long periods.

Not trying to be rude here but do people just say the first thing that comes into their heads?

Mick Fitzgerald won a whole stack of top races during his career both for Nicky Henderson and other trainers, including the Grand National, was twice top jockey at the Cheltenham Festival winning races like the Gold Cup, Champion Hurdle, Arkle, Cathcart, Coral Cup, Mildmay of Fleet, Ryanair Chase, Stayers's Hurdle, Triumph Hurdle, as well as other top races like the Aintree Hurdle, Bula Hurdle, Charlie Hall Chase, Christmas Hurdle, Cleeve Hurdle, Feltham Chase, King George, Martell Cup, Vict0r Ch@ndler Chase, Tingle Creek and both the T0te Gold Trophy Hurdle and Chase with several of those won more than once and in total rode 81 Grade rated winners in hurdles and chases combined.

The list below tells you what you need to know. The more high profile!e the trainer, the more odds on shots he has and the more you lose by backing them

Bookmakers backed up by punters make favourites surely? Going back to Henderson, he was unlucky to have 2 fallers yesterday but in general too many of his horses have been fading badly and that is not luck.

the initial post was not correct though about laying his odds on shots in general for profit. I find it strange when no evidence is posted to back up these statements.
