Thank you very much for your thoughts.
I’ll try that as a retrospective exercise to see what results it brings this month. Unfortunately I’m not able to sit and wait to see the prices immediately before the off, and you certainly can’t anticpate what will be favourite or what the price will be but I’ll give it a go. Again input much appreciated.
<br>First days result was 1/3 @ 1/4<br>St 3 Ret 1.25
A good end to the month with 3/3 @ 4/11, 5/2 & 1/20 (well somebody has to win!)
Results for September are as follows:
GB 38/86 SR 44.2% Retuns 93.56 roi 8.79%<br>IRE 17/30 SR 56.7% returns 42.92 roi 43.06%
TOTAL 55/116 SR 47.4% Returns 136.84 roi 17.96
A better performance than August, and this month it was Ireland that gave the good performance.
Lets see what October can do.
Any thoughts on a better staking plan, that must be applied in one go before the first race would be much appreciated.

Sunday results.
2 from 5 @ 6/4 & 1/2.
Return of 4 from stake of 5.
Having read through the thread as Matron advised and having found MrE’s rolling doubles, it is interesting to note that the two winners were in consecutively timed races, so if I’d have applied rolling doubles I would have had a return of 3.75 against a stake of 4.00 thus showing a deficit of only 0.25.
Can anybody give me some ideas. I can’t sit and wait to see the result of one race before betting on the next using rolling doubles. Is there any other scheme, relatively risk free as rolling doubles, whereby I bet in one go before the off.
Would a single bet on each plus a series of doubles first race with second, second with third etc. Does that work or would the relatively short prices blow a hole in it?

Thank you for your reply. I’ll look through the thread to find MrE’s words of wisdom.
<br>Now…. Another bad day at the office. One out of six @ 7/4. That gives a return of 2.75 from a stake of 6.
Tomorrow is another day….

I’m fairly new to all this (15 months) so excuse my stupidity if this is a stupid question, but I don’t quite (I think) understand your stats.
I can understand "all favourites in all races" – obvious, but what do you mean by "favourite on first meeting of the day"? To me the first meeting of the day is the meeting where the time of the first race is earlier than all the others – is that what your stats are based on. If that is correct then I assume (dangerous!) that your stats are based on the favourite of all the races at that meeting ie. going down the card. What I’m doing is going across the top of all the cards on a particular day. Do that stats you’ve shown apply to that or have I got it all round my neck.
From what I can see anyway backing favourites is not the way to big money.
Apologies if this is a stupid post.
Ian
Well I never!
A bad day – all lost and was truly summed up at Listowel, where the highest numbered joint favourite won and the lowest almost managed to finish third in a two horse race.
Still, tomorrow is another day – thank goodness!

I’ve no sure idea why that is. I’ve read through the whole of First Favourite and there are discussions in that about that somehow it seems to be the case that more favourites win. Maybe, as you say, a lot of Maidens – the first race is often a "weaker" one, and where there’s no real form, those forecasting prices ain’t doing it with a pin (I assume). If that is the case then they must have some indication of what is more likely to win, hence making it favourite in the forecast. Having just written that I’ve just had a thought – from now on I’ll check what RP shows as forecast favourite as to what actually wins/is favourite.

The figures upto and including yesterday, Wednesday are as follows:
GB 32wins/70races = sr 45.71% returns 82.07 = roi 17.24%
IRE 16wins/25races = sr 64.00% returns 40.17 = roi 60.68%
TOTAL 48/95 = sr 50.5% returns 122.24 = roi 28.67%
Thursday was 1 from 4 @ 4/7 Return = 1.57
So when the return exceeds the number of races we are going in the right direction!
I will not publish the totals now until end of month.

Thank you. The best bit of the day was the 5/1 coming in, but not on its own the race ten minutes earlier came in at 4/1! Probably one of the best returns ever out of only 4 races.

I’ve been following this thread for some while and developed my own version starting in August.  Very very simple.  Back the unnamed favourite in the first race at every meeting, everywhere GB & Ireland.  August gave 72 wins out of 154 races and at 1 point LS ended up at 174.05, an roi of about 13%.  September looks as though it will do even better.  In the last four days 13 out of 19 with a return of 36.88.  I suppose tomorrow will be a disaster!!

About a year ago I printed out a load of stuff from a site www.bettingboots.org and on that it had the heading "Income for life plan" and underneath it said deleted due to copyright.
<br>However if you go to http://www.profitsystems.co.uk it would appear that you can get a copy there but you’ve got to pay for it.
Can’t believe that no one out there hasn’t got a copy of it.
