Like you say Icebreaker, it really is a matter of personal opinion whether you use races that become qualifiers due to non-runners - it all depends on whether you can be bothered to keep checking for withdrawals, and how much time you have on your hands.
Thanks for that info OC and Icebreaker. I understand the rules of this system now better. Only started with this system this week and I wasn't 2 sure how it works. Do you guys take straight win doubles or EW doubles if the Sp's are around 5/1??

might have missed something,but are novice hurdles also out,just novice chases and maidens except sellers?
Personally,I've found with a lot of systems where x runners or< =qualifying runners,when you get into the area of n/r=qualifying race,it begins to change shape from a peach to a pear.

Thanks OC,for update.

Well done Icebreaker - a 10-1 double!
For anyone who doesn't know, all Sunday race meetings are in the Saturday Daily Mirror Racing Post Extra suppliment with S.F, F and Spotform selections highlighted.
Looked at a few races this week and have only done races of 8 or less where I think there are 2 horses in the race where 1 should win on recent form etc and have had a couple of nice wins and a couple of losses, I will also use only 1 race if that is all that stands out on the day and roll it over to the next day, must add I have only been putting 1 pound bets on while I can build up a better picture.
Well, we had another winning double yesterday, at odds of 4.75-1, so, following my rules, since the 6th October we have had 7 out of 9 winning doubles, and 49 points profit.
Today's double is cancelled as Carlisle has been abandoned.
Well done on this system guys. It is shaping up really well.
Can the system keep it up. Let's hope so. If it does you may not need Win2Win!
cheers,

Well done though - looks very good so far guys!

Dead easy mate - just go into your local Oddbins, grab the case of beer, tell the assistant Keith sent you - they'll know what you mean..... :winkOriginally Posted by Outside Chance
I must admit it's good to hear of a simple system that has worked over such a long time, too many look good for a wee while then go down the toilet.... as I know from experience!

Thanks for the response, OC. I may add this to my list of systems to watch closely with aview to investing when the bank balance allows.
cheers,

Today choosing races I thought at least 1 of the selections should win in races of no more than 8 runners gave 6 winning doubles, All winners were at -
Marcel 7/4.
Rigmarole 4/5.
Motivator 6/4.
Bibury flyer 3/1. Giving 6 combos and a nice profit.
I have chose Runaway Bishop and Phar city in the 2.35 Towcester.
Contraband and River City in the 2.15 Aintree for tommorrow.
Hi Icebreaker, these are my own choices and not the strict system you have posted, as there has been a fair bit of discussion on this system in this thread and a few ideas evolving, if you would like to keep your rules for your system to itself then maybe you should post a dedicated thread in the Systems Qualifiers thread.
ooooh - Handbags!!!
Icebreaker, you are correct - there are no bets today using my system.
Potdog, I too am rather confused - How do you actually select your horses?
Handbags indeed! It's probably worth starting a new thread anyway as this one is getting a bit long - and whatever the exact rules are, it does seem to work pretty well, so keep up the good work!
My keyboard's running out of ink....
OC, All I have been doing is looking at races of 8 or less runners where I feel 2 have the best chance off winning, more of a method than a system but I can post in a seperate thread any I would consider doing in future, no problem.
Icebraker, Sorry mate couldnt do the double, only managed a 3/1 first leg, oops sorry wrong thread...
Seriously, Podtog, that would be a great idea ........... I would welcome that. We could well see a trend or aspect coming to light that would further distill the system. Like you say, this is all about developing ideas. No system has to be written in tablets of stone -- methods evolve and adapt to changing circumstances.Originally Posted by podtog
I look forward to seeing you selections if you do consider posting them. And, BTW, I do apologise if my previous post sounded like a "hissy fit" -- I genuinely WAS trying to understand on what criteria you were making your selections.
Regards and respect,
Ice.
