Question On Handicaps

[Adge]

First ever post anywhere.  Is there any milage in backing the 2nd, 3rd & 4th favourites in handicap races where the odds allow.  On Saturday I monitored the following:<br>Carlisle 3.10  1st3/1, 3rd11/4, L<br>             3.45  1st11/4, L, L<br>             4.55  1st7/2, 3rd14/1, L

Stratford  3.15  3rd6/1, L, L<br>                4.25  L, L, L

Plumpton  2.20  1st5/1, L, L<br>                 3.30  1st15/2, L, L<br>

You need to monitor it for another day at least to find a winning system.

It should work after 2 days that’s not saying all systems work after a 2 day trial but this one will.

Hello Adge and welcome to TRF.

I would check out Adrian Massey’s site of where he lists all the "stats" of 1,2 & 3 favourites before parting with your money.

Hello Adge and welcome … this won’t work, don’t even contemplate this one. I followed a system for a couple of months a few years back which selected the first, second and third fav’s in the HCP with the fewest runners on the day (not less than 5) … guess how long the losing run was … 12 days … the problem with following plans like this is that they can work quite the thing for a while, a month or so and then they don’t for a month or so and you’re back to square one, at best.

Once again welcome.

Adge, don’t give up, something else will come along.

Thank you everyone, I will let this one rest.<br>Many thanks.

Regards<br>Adge
