Mark,
I agree that some of the probabilties were misused – they did not add up to 1 or 100%. The topic is interesting IMHO, not because of the mystery man VDW but that the methods seem to work well up to a point and many cannot get past this point and into regular profit.<br>I have seen several of the Raceform articles, but thanks for being so helpful. I started this topic to see if there were any others investigating or developing the VDW methods so we could share views and perhaps analyse races to come.

John,
I agree with the basic method you have described. VDW stated that the numbers part of the method were basically to identify 3 possibles which would put the odds in your favour. The hard part for most is then applying racing knowledge to see if any of the 3 is worth a bet in the race conditions on the day. You will still need a proper racing paper, own records, or website to do that and I am sure that there are few worthwhile methods these days where you can just use an ordinary newspaper to have any chance of success. One newsaper method that consistently gets 60% winners in the top two is the Fineform Formula. Logically, VDW method should be more succesful than that, but many have found difficulty, whilst others make it work. That was the reason in asking if any wanted a topic opened to discuss the method.
