These horses have something in common which I'm testing as a lay angle.

Stroxx      4,10
UBAHHA      5,27
Patsy Fagan      3,35
Rania      5,00
Blazing Hot      3,32

Result: 16-46, almost break even. Now, you want to know the IR prices of the winners? 80, 55, 32, 30, 24, 11, 11, 9. If I included longshots, those are 2-19 with an IR win at 250.

Now, what are the chances of 6 out of 18 winners drifting above 20? Either I'm cosmically unlucky or IR layers are consistently dumb. If I had backed all of those at 20 IR I'd go 6-56 for huge profits with risk-free bets since I laid at BSP. Even if it somehow went 3-59, that's still almost break-even with blind keep bets for no risk. And yet people like TM insist that keep bets are -EV because people with drones will steal my money. They won't if they keep doing such dumb bets.

Pick 50 horses from any 50 races before the races have been run - lay them and roughly break even or lose to commission.

Look at the 50 results after the races - model and calculate what would have happened if you had:

1) Backed them instead of laying them
2) Backed them to place instead of laying them
3) Layed them to place instead of laying them to win
4) Backed them all in running at the highest price matched
5) Layed them all in running at the lowest price matched

etc, etc, etc.

In the real world (where you placed your bets before the results were known to you) - you have still broken even/lost to commission - but whichever one of the above options works best after the results are known to you (and one or two of them will always work great) - that is the new Holy Grail!

But that's the thing, If I hadn't listened to you a year ago I would have actually backed those high IR prices BEFORE the race. I kept thinking that maybe you're right, that the IR prices are efficient and that my bad will run out one day, but it NEVER did and never will. Now, whenever I lay below 3/1 I'll just green up at 10 IR and win literally 95% of the time.

I've made at 5-10 topics about this in the past 2 years because that's how consistently it happens. It's like tossing a coin 50 times and getting 40 heads, then the next month it happens again, and the next month again. Now you're telling me it won't happen this month, but it will.

1) 95% is utter bollix
2) In your opening post you were gonna green-up at 20 in-running, now you're saying you'll do it at 10 Cry

The bottom line is - your are still just after-timing - but rather than after-timing the selections, you are after-timing the prices! You are picking a number (after the race) that will turn your loss into a profit.

This is actually holding you back - because rather than accepting that your picks/prices are mediocre  (and are showing a loss) and learning from that and getting wiser - you are sticking like a limpet with your losing selections/prices taken and focussing all of your time and energy into manipulating the prices (after the race) to make your losing selections into winners!

You only know what price a horse will be matched at in-running after the race, unfortunately you cannot take that price before the race.

If you don't understand this (i.e. that you are back-fitting after the race) - you are beyond help!

Ironically - from your (after the race) attempts at price manipulation - You could have learned the most valuable lesson (the Holy Grail if you like) - that price is the only thing that matters - now you just need to stop manipulating the prices/numbers (after the race) and focus on how you could in reality be actually getting the prices that would (over time) accumulate a profit.

You have to know what the horse you're backing or laying  is capable of OR is likely to be capable of. And what the other horses are capable of OR likely to be capable of. In terms of ability stamina and temperament. Then you can decide how to bet. eg. Lay to back or back to lay. And at what prices. Sorry Gaze but hard work is needed for each individual race.

Moriko De Vassy 150 IR PURE COINCIDENCE


1) Yes it is
2) You don't half lay a lot of winners!
3) You don't play in running - you do pre-race keep bets! The 150 is completely irrelevant because a) It was probably matched to 12 pence and b) You said you were doing your keep bets at 10.

So yet again - before the race, you were doing a keep bet at 10 and after the race (when it's too late) you realise (as does everybody else after the race) that you could have done it much bigger.

By:
Gaze733
When: 11 Jan 22 14:39
The only reason I didn't green up Moriko is because he fell LTO and he could've done so again. If it was a flat race I would've greened up at 10.

Was it your 2 quid? - otherwise it's irrelevant!

The 14:30 winner was matched at 1000 (for tuppence ha'penny) but if it wasn't yours - so what?

As I keep telling you - you are just after-timing the prices - after the race, we can all see the graph - you do realise that, don't you?
By:

I could literally post 20 horses here and tell you to back them at 10 IR. 14 would lose, 6 would win at prices between 10-50. Then you'd still be unsatisfied and say something about after-timing.

Semser 110 to 1.15, I almost got a heart attack. Even drifting favs make ridiculous comebacks. Upon closer inspection the fav drifted because mugs backed Pablo Prince from 45 to 5. That's the most ridiculous steam in a handicap race I've ever seen.

That's not quite true is it! - If it had won it would have been another horse that got matched in running by somebody (not you!) at 100+ and won. Subtle difference but quite an important difference imo and also in the opinion of your bank manager/mum imo.

If you backed the field at 150 in every race you would lose long term, stop backfitting your systems.

Way to miss the point, both of you. On one hand, you believe that the IR odds are correct, on the other hand, you believe that everything that happens to me is pure variance, even if the odds are similar to getting struck by a lightning.

I don't know what's so hard to understand here. Look, I can make another 100 lays at 3.0. 70 horses will lose, 10 will win easily, 20 will win at IR odds between 10-250, let's say 20.0 on average. So if my lays drift to 20, they should win only 5% of the time, and yet they win 20% of the time. It fluctuates between 15 to 50% so I'm being generous here. In 2 years it was certainly never below 10%, let alone 5%.

So let's scale up to a two year sample size - 1000 lays at 3.0, 200 winners at average odds 20. You don't find anything wrong with that, just variance.

Your 16:19 post is utter bollix.

But just say it were true - why are you laying ANY of them in the first place?

Shirley just stick up your 12 pence keep bet (a back) at 150 and retire to the lounge to peruse your bote catalogue?
