    Something similar was mentioned by the late great Prof Frank George in his book A BETTER BET.

    Hi Hal, I don’t suppose you live in a bungalow on the south side of Market Harborough by any chance do you?

    Temperament —————–Thoughts,Anyone?

    said goodlife

    If his famous quote of having 29 winning bets from 32 covered just the first two months of the flat season, then VDW was only having roughly 4 bets a week, according to my sums, thats about one every 2 days.

    Howzabout the most valuable prize to the winner –

    so one day it might be the Derby
    another the top chase of the day
    or an over sponsored 2yo race

    atlas, a word of warning!

    If your system in anyway entails retrieval staking on the favourite – you should know that a couple of years ago – favourites suffered a losing run of over 40 !!

    This is more about the horse rather than the jockey.

    SONNY SOMERS.

    winning at the age of 16.

    my memory of the race was that he showed all the other runners what jumping was all about, skipping over the fences and gaining lengths at each one. He didn’t really need a jockey except to make it legal.

    Mind you I could be remembering this through rose tinted specs as the form book comment was —

    " hit 3rd, led 6th, clear 14th, unchallenged "

    so he clobbered one of the fences before handing out his jumping lesson!

    And to top that the old sod won two more at the age of 18!!

    Hensman, someone on another forum summed that up rather succinctly –

    [b:28jsqx7t]there’s a formula that goes something like ..

    no short-cuts + hard work = not interested
    [/b:28jsqx7t]

    Hi, Samson

    This sentence seems to fit the bill.

    Form is considered a major factor to winner-finding and what is form if it is not that one performance is better than another?

    Cheers

    IMP
