Hi all
I've been trying my luck with my own systems for a few years now but to no really avail. Some have been good and some bad but I have used the various websites out there to see how the performed historically.
What I want to know is what if I am going down the right track with my systems. I have 80 systems and I have them split into 8 categories, each category contains 8 systems.
1. Handicap Turf
2. Non-Handicap Turf
3. Handicap All-Weather
4. Non-Handicap Weather
5. Handicap Hurdle
6. Non-Handicap Hurdle
7. Handicap Chase
8. Non Handicap Chase
My systems only concentrate on one race type at a time eg. Novice Hurdles, Group Stakes, AW handicaps etc. For an example I have 3 systems for Novice Hurdles, 1 for Class 1 Hurdles, 1 for Maiden Hurdles, 1 For Selling Hurdles, and finally 1 for NH flat races. These all come under the umbrella of Non-HC Hurdle races.
50% of my systems are base on the AM ratings site and the other 50% are non AM based. I’m averaging about 6 bets a day with my systems but sometimes I have none and sometimes around 20. Sometimes I am up and sometimes I am down, with the latter being the more frequent. I've been using these systems for about 4 months using a betting bank.
What I want to know is what the system backers out there think of the way I am going about with this?
Should I go for fewer systems and use systems that cover all race types? Or just have two categories: Flat and NH
Should I continue to use the AM ratings or just look for other systems not based on his ratings? Who’s to say these are to continue show profit over the next few years?
I've been following the system guides on the blog and have a few ideas but would like to know what the "PROS" think of my strategy.
I am thinking of using fewer systems because I think that I am going a bit out of my depth.
Any suggestions and advice would be extremely grateful!
Cheers
