Sorry - Eric  - busy with my actual bets (mostly at Newcastle) - well done Dollnamix but Ivors' Involvement not so good - but hopefully you are level across the two of them.

I'm okay mate and that's me done for the day.
Pennies up but not down.
We live to play another day.

You? How's y'luck?

Will be interested to see how the 15.42. goes.
If I had to pick one I'd go for Sehayli but I'll let that one go I reckon.

HAPSAN,

what you said about laying all novices.
I'm keeping a record of results, just out of interest really, seeing how one might fare laying every runner [short prices only] and doubling the stake every time a winner went in until one lost.
How bad could THAT get?
We'll see.
Deffo paper-playing THAT one.

Re. your chart above.

You've listed Glinger Flame as a non-runner in the 13:30 at Marker Rasen yesterday.

As I pointed out on this thread yesterday morning with a post marked FAO the_dak, the horse wasn't even a qualifier as it had already won a handicap hurdle in March 2019.

I assume the_dak didn't see the post or maybe he did and chose to ignore it when the horse was declared a non-runner.

Interesting striding,
both systems highlighting important factors though I think, winners to be found there.
Trouble is, what's that saying? The more you read the less you know.Cry

People think because you are laying and profits are very slow in regard to your betting bank you have to lay lay lay . Because of this thought process many betfairians are too active and need to be far more PATIENT .

Madhatters,

Thanks, I’ll go with Timeform.

Top2rated,

Court Duty & Cyclop at the top I’ve also left in as NR’s.
They shouldn’t be in there, I just thought maybe leave them for some sort of reference. They won't be there if I post the chart again.

The Dac was able to look back through my sheets and able to spot the trend for backing winners.
After all, how would you feel if those NR’s went in at 20/1, 15/2, and 14/1 next time they run and I’d deleted them without telling you?Laugh

I don’t do any checking, just paste them in (lick em & stick em).

This is where I took Ginger Flame from.

You still haven't excluded the nurseries Happy.

Not sure if SE excluded them either - when interrogating his database?

I'm noticing if you excluded backing horses above 10/1 from this first week that also improves the stats,also favourites that come from this back system seem to do very well.

Hi Lucky Sod - It probably overlaps what you are saying (i.e. excludes a lot of the bigger priced ones) -
but I'd be much more interested in (as well as excluding nurseries altogether), only including horses that
managed that magical first HC win in the previous 21 days. Too lazy/ignorant to do it - but maybe one of the
Database boys will oblige.

It's still just back-fitting - so much prefer to look at every horse/race on
its own merits - but at least it is back-fitting based on some logic (imo). GL.

SINCE WE'RE ALL HERE TRYING TO FIND A WAY OF TURNING A PROFIT,

AND SINCE THERE SEEMS TO BE SOME USEFUL IDEAS BEING PUT THROUGH THE GRINDER HERE,

I'D LIKE TO THROW THIS INTO THE MIX:

With no small measure of testicular-fortitude, a staking-plan could make dak's system a winner.
A staking plan as in a betting stake to recover previous losses as and when they occur.
That doesn't necessarily mean doubling your stake each time you bet.
Just staking enough to recover+ what ever your intended profit is.

Excluding nurseries make sno difference.

We have a huge sample of real world results that would indicate this year around 9% for the backers (excluding nurseries) is just a blip.

Unless you are beating the sp regularly or have some form criteria that takes into account the actual horses as individuals forget it.

As I’ve just said - I don’t do any checking, just paste them in (lick em & stick em).

Perhaps you could do a sheet with all the data correct, to your own liking?

If not, could you just highlight the offending Nursery’s and I’ll omit them from the sheet, along with the NR’s, when I do an update after racing today?

Management, re:what I've said about cherry-picking.

I'm on the lookout for winners being turned out quickly after h/c win.
Preferably having hosed up and well in at the weights.

That's just my starter of course.

BTW, out of interest;

DOES ANYBODY KNOW?

How long before a winner is re-assessed by the handicapper?

SE - can you humour me and do the 21 day thing (assuming it's just a click of a button?),
If it's any work required - don't bother - just curious. TIA.

Eric - if you need a staking plan to make anything work - it's a non-starter imo.

Thanks for spotting those two points Lucky – anyone backing these will do well to remember them.
Silly chucking money away.

Thanks Striding - just interested what it looks like if only betting the one that achieved the HC win
(that has now triggered them as a bet) within the previous 3 weeks. TIA.
