September 18, 2001 at 17:55 #39850Not good MrE is it.
Will have start developing something new if this carries on. Love a challenge, so if this fails have a few other ideas bubbling away for short priced selections.

September 18, 2001 at 19:00 #39854Welcome back Mr E!!! Have a good break?
Hope you guys pick up soon, it’s getting worrying! This system’s been going for ages now so we don’t want it to go!
How, at the moment, do you pick your selections?
September 18, 2001 at 20:49 #39855Rob,
The Times has a feature on the racing page called "Meeting Points" of which they list the<br>meetings of which have the highest percentage <br>of winning favourites. (This list slightly differs from <br>RP stats.) I then try and pick the race of which I<br>think the favourite is going to oblige.
Unfortunately, I have gone off the boil recently.
You need to keep the strike rate up with this sort of<br>selection process to maintain a profit. Hopefully, it<br>should pick up soon.

September 18, 2001 at 23:20 #39857Evening Rob, Matron…. I stated in an earlier post that I’d been using this system for some time. This is true, its been working for me for about 8 years. Dont desert it cos of a couple of poor months, stick with it. I’ve had a couple of losing months but never a losing year, thats one hell of a record. Even if we end up in deficit this month, the points lost wouldn’t put a dent in the profits already achieved……. Keep smiling Matron, getting money from those bookie fellas was never gonna be easy, thats why there’s so many of ’em….  :biggrin:
MrE
September 19, 2001 at 08:19 #39859You two keep on going…from you’ve both said it’s going to pay off.
I will be following your progress and I think the effort you put in is top notch.
As we know, losing runs happen in racing, but you know you’re going to get by this one with no problems!
Any for today guys? Rob :)

September 19, 2001 at 17:28 #39862Well done MrE. :clap:
This was nearly my selection for today.
Regards – Matron<br>:cool:
September 19, 2001 at 20:55 #39863Thanks Matron….. but I gotta apologise to any member following this system, the prices are the pits lately…. That last ‘un was quoted @ 11/8 in the RP, I was expecting it to go slightly odds on but 4/11 in a maiden is laughable. If it had have been quoted anywhere near to that in the paper I wouldn’t have bet it…….. I must write a hundred times, "I will get better"…..

The Times did not publish stats today, so its over to you MrE to find us a winner.
Regards – Matron<br>:cool:
September 21, 2001 at 13:31 #39866Oh dear… you caught me on the hop there Matron (or should that be Stuffit_Uppum). :biggrin:  I’m feeling a bit Uncle Dick (sick) at the present and I was lying here on my bed awondering, as one does, how much wonga am I gonna make this month. Very little came the answer so I thought I’d better lift myself out of bed and log into the Racing Forum to check on what donkey that that geezer Stuffit might be picking….. what a disappointment to have a no bet, so I dipped my nose (and its still dripping) back into the book of casty spellers to see if I could dredge a winner up for us…. so yer it is…..  NO SELECTION….  :smiley: :smiley:  dunno why I bother sometimes, what with me lying here dying…. Ok, Ok, its only a cold to you guys, but it feels like pneumonia to me…..  hehehe….. I’m going back to bed now….. night night….
MrE
