My Laying Method …….

[shmeeko69]

My methodology consists of laying horses only in handicap race.

The rules are :-

8 or more runners
lay odds between 1.8 – 4.5 (Betfair)
Check horses form with Racing Post (£7.50 p/m for extensive details)
There has to be 2 other horses with odds of 10.0 or less
Place bet between 10min. & 1/2 hour before the off
5% max. liability of Betfair bank.

That’s basically how I’ve been operating with Betfair & Horse Racing for the past 17 months with reasonable success

My lay for today is as follows. Remember to only risk 5% of your Betfair or Bookie account.

NOTTINGHAM 2:35 6F FILLIES H’CAP CLASS 4

HIGH ACHIEVED 3.05 LAY

Laying Advantages – CLASS
WEIGHT
GOING ?

Laying Disadvantages – DISTANCE
TRAINER 3yo STATS

If there’s no rain today at Nottingham, then the course could get a little firmer & that would suit the selected horse, if it stays Good & not GF then all the better !

well done good start usually goes pear shaped first posting up and running

Thanks for your kind words….. I have been using that methodology for well over a year now & stick to it through thick & thin & has returned a decent profit. The key is DISCIPLINE & never blindly follow the crowd !

Hi people, first post – go easy on me!

So shmeeko69, when you say you’ve had some success with ouyr method, how many points are you making per week, month or year roughly?

I also agree that you have to stick with a method through thick and thin, many people fall at that hurdle and is why they never make any money.

Hi Mogul

Strangely enough, I’ve never operated a points system. I risk 5% of my Betfair bank on particular races. My criteria is –

H’cap races only
8 runners or more
At least 2 other horses odds less than 10
Check racing post form guide
risk 5% of bank

I have tweaked this from other systems I’ve bought & always return’s a
reasonable profit weekly/monthly

I also forgot to mention when using this methodology, the
lay odds on Betfair must be between 1.7 & 4.5 & our
liability is always 5%.

Example of £1000 start bank

(i) £1000 bank – liability £50, if we win

£1050 bank for next bet – liability = £52.50

(ii) £1000 bank – liability £50, if we lose

£950 bank – for next bet – liability = £47.50

Cheers

Hi Mark,

good luck with this.

In your 1st post you give an odds range of 1.8 – 4.5, however your last post says 1.7 – 4.5, could you clarify?

I know its only a matter of terminology but I think you’re actually using 5% of bank for the ‘backers stake’ so your liability actually ranges from 4% of bank – 1.8 shot – to 17.5% (when laying a 4.5 shot).

Therefore your losing example would only be correct if you happened to lay at exactly evens.

Good luck again, look forward to next selection
