    John

    Congratulations on an excellent winner today.

    I see from one of your early posts that your approach is a "convoluted offshoot of VDW". Another couple of winners and even the most closed-minded of contributors whose posts I’ve been reading with amusement on the VDW thread may be getting Mr Peach’s booklets out again!

    Was CAVENDISH in the 19:45 at YAR a condender ?

    Paddy Power knocked back my £0.37 bet.

    Hi Quadrilla,

    No, Cavendish would not have been considered.

    My selections are confined solely to C2 hcps.

    There is nothing more this weekend, but there might be something on Tuesday.

    Great start –

    btw – aren’t all VDW offshoots ‘convoluted’?

    John,
    Very well done with your selections to date. As you are one of the VDW cognoscenti, can I ask if A. King is putting what I believe is known as the "compress" into practice in today’s Scottish National?
    Regards,
    Goodlife

    Cormack,

    There are so many takes on VDW that the answer to your question has to be yes. In my own case I am seen by some as a dreadful heretic as I do not regard consistency as being important. Whilst it is true that most winners have been consistent, their consistency is not the reason they win, therefore consistency is only a statistical tool and as such is inherently misleading.

    Goodlife,

    I think that Mr King has seriously annoyed his peers by declaring Halcon Genelardais. If either the latter or Old Benny doesn’t win he’s going to look foolish and will have to scurry away from the track to preserve his honour!

    Another miserable price but these horses pick themselves.

    Simply dreadful betting conditions but as the primary objective is to test the theory then discipline must be maintained.

    Two in the 340R:

    Highland Legacy 1pt
    Saddler’s Kingdom 1pt

    Cape Hawk 505S 1pt
