Thanks Eddie, I've had a few near misses and 2nds over the past few days, so good to get another few quid under the belt.

Nothing is really standing out for wednesday, so no selections.

[counterfeit]

it's an amazing profit for what appears to be a low strike rate. Even taking into account the huge win the other day you have still increased the opening bank by 1000%. Without looking through every page I guess you must have had quite a few good priced winners.

Keep up the good work mate.

[wb]

Thanks Counterfeit. I have had some nice high prices but I think the average price is around 8.0 or thereabouts. I'll have a look later.

7.45 Hunt - Fields of clover - matched at 2.12

[counterfeit]

I had a decent win at Poker the other day so I have used all my winnings to open a Tote account and will use it just to follow your horses. It's money I can afford to lose (and the wife doesn't know about) so I'm looking forward to trialling your system, and lets hope it makes me happy.

[wb]

Best of luck Counterfeit, as long as you can afford to lose should this go t*ts up!

I'd actually reccommend that you open a betfair account however, as the prices on some of the longshots were excellent, and I'm not sure how it would work with the tote.

Regarding staking - use a % of the bank as the stake. I started off with a high risk 3% in order to build the bank quickly. The SR is 20% so 2% stakes should be fine. At the moment, I'm using 1% as I want to protect the profit now.

[counterfeit]

I've got a Betfair account - I just want to keep this separate (and quiet, if you know what I mean:wink ). I might surprise the wife with a holiday to FLorida.

I've just had a quick look over the past couple of hundred bets. The average price of the selections is 10.2, and the average price of the winners is 8.5

[counterfeit]

very nice prices - looks like a good system.

Do you use a real or mythical bank?

[wb]

Yep, so far so good....actually, it's not really a system, more method betting and form study. I use a real bank, but the starting bank was €400 not £1000. I've withdrawn a bit to pay for a flight to the states but thankfully it's still quite high.

superb wayne.. onwards and upwards :hearty

[wb]

Thanks everyone. Another good day with a 22.0 winner, and the bank hits another all time high of over 30K.

The Irish racing has been throwing up some great prices. One possible advantage that I may have in Irish racing is the fact that there is only one main handicapper - Noel O' Brien (even though he has less races to assess than the UK guys).

Noel is a great handicapper, but he has to assess every race, and give each horse a mark, so is prone to errors now and again which can be exploited.

UK racing has a team of handicappers, but the fact that there are thousands of horses running each week also leaves them open to mistakes.

ouch, that's a couple now Mat. Hopefully it keeps going as before throughout the summer, although there will be less NH meetings.

Looking forward to some of the upcoming handicaps, at some of the big NH meetings such as the Galway festival later in the year - I should be going for at least 2 days of it. I know people who go to all of it, but a week is a bit much for me!

These are my final exams, and one of my major topics has been online communities! It proved to be a very easy and interesting topic for me to study due to my participation in this and other online groups.

May have some bets tomorrow depending on time, but none again on Wednesday due to more exams.

well done wayne finally and the other one loked ok till 2 fences from home but nice to get that weight off your neck if you know what i mean

[wb]

Yep, thanks Eddie. That's the problem with method betting compared to systems.. it dents the confidence after a while. At least with systems, you have the confidence of letting the stats do their thing, but when they are your own selections it can hurt with so many losers in a row - simply because you have no long term back-up of historical losing runs etc, and then you start to question your ability and try your best not to change things and to remain consistent.

We've often talked privately about the fact that one could know everything about horses, yet not know how to gamble.........good selections require even better staking, and lucky for me the changes I made to protect the bank have worked.

Thankfully, I've had an incredible season on this, so as the NH bets wind down, I hope to get a few more nice bets in.

I know some people used to follow this, so I'm just updating with what's happening. I did a big review recently and it simply does not work during the summer months. This is based on the Jumps, and its lack of success during the summer is more than likely due to the infrequency of NH racing and horses running off the 'wrong' marks during these months. During the summer, the bank lost around 7K. The bank is still over £23K (starting bank was £1000), so that's a good position to be in. I've put the bank on freeze until mid October, at which point I'll pick it up again.

Wayne.

[GreenHorn]

Hadn't looked in in months to see how you were doing Wayne... Very impressed. Bad summer or not, that's some return!

I'll be back in October! :)

Best of Luck...

Best of Luck...

Thanks Greenhorn. Even though I lost money on this during the summer, 23K is an amazing start going into the new season. I don't expect the crazy success I achieved last season, but even if I doubled the bank I'd be pleased.

Last year, it increased by 30, which would make it £690,000 next year should things go the same :laugh. Somehow I doubt I'll be that good!!

[scaaty]

Last year, it increased by 30, which would make it £690,000 next year should things go the same :laugh.

Wow, now wouldn't that be brilliant ! :D




Somehow I doubt I'll be that good!!
Think positive - maybe it'll even increase by more than 30 ! :yikes:

Look forward to following it again in October - best of luck !

[silax]

well done wayne congrats and all that

[wb]

Well, the NH season is kicking back in, and NH form is becoming more consistent, so I think it's time to take on the handicapper again, and try spot the horses carrying too little weight.

The bank stands at £23422.27, so Thursdays stakes are £234.22

Good luck Wayne :thumbs

[wb]

Thanks everyone. Its a very tall order indeed trying to replicate last seasons success, but I'm playing with profit, so that makes it a bit easier. I'm not going to set myself targets - if I keep this in profit, even if its a small profit, then that's success in itself.

As usual, I've messed up the times of the races :splapme

2.30 Newc - Court One

What ever happened to the good old days of 75.0 winners and the like. :(

I'll keep going to the spring and see if I can recover. At least it's still in profit of over 12K, which is a great achievement in itself. It's been hard losing so much money though. This bank was once 30K+ :ermmm

Anyhow...
