Hi Snowy
Just popped in to see how the system was going.. looks like its taken a turn for the worse.. :o
Based on your analysis/review of the selection method(s) can you determine the reason for the change in fortune?
;)

In the words of Nick Mordin
Systems are like vampires, you bring them out into the daylight and they shrivel and die.. :o
Keep the faith! Remember it’s the performance over the long run that counts.. :cool: <br>
Q. Should I be going for more consistent wins by going for obvious selections with tighter dividends?
A. No. :angry: This logic is the same as selecting favorites. Over time you will not win (i.e. dividends > £500). In addition, obvious selections = follow the crowd = low dividends. For the big hits you need to take an opposite view based on reasonable selection logic. For me the Tote Place-pot is ‘the’ best value bet in racing ;) given that for a small outlay there are potential big returns.. The fact that these are few and far between are part of the game..  :(
Losing runs are a fact of life whatever the betting method. If your method has served you well thus far.. why change it?
Keep the faith … :cool:

I actually do calculate and use speed ratings in my selections. :o
My method uses my own data (obtained from the net and stored in a database) to determine the finishing time of all runners.. Using this data I determine the relative merit of one horse vs. another at various distances going etc based in time. As I said this is a raw rating as it makes no allowance for going conditions. For accurate speed ratings I supplement my data with those of a speed rating service and TOPSPEED in the racing post.
One word of advice … my limited experience has taught me that horse racing is an art and not a science. Use speed ratings blindly and you will line the pockets of bookies/punters..:angry:
You do need to use speed ratings along with other factors such as draw and preference for ground conditions etc and advice from MR E .. I’ve found his insights to be invaluable. :cool:
If you wish to understand the science of speed ratings I suggest you read “Mordin on Timeâ€ÂÂ

Could assist me, simply question?
What is the bet way of describing this type of perm on a betting slip?
I’ve tried many times to explain to the counter girls at my local bookies :angry: and I want to make sure that when (you) I land the big one :o , there is no confusion when they have to cough up the readies. :cool:

Dont worry about the mistakes.. :o
You’ve made me enough money so I can forgive the odd error :cool:

Firstly I have been following your system on and off for about 6 months now and I must stay that it is a work of pure genius! Especially given that  as relative novice (started serious punting from Aug03), your system puts my selections methods (based on time honoured form study) to complete shame… :o
Anyway a question on the selection of the principle meeting.. A look at the prize money on offer for the 9th Jan meetings (source teletext racing site)
Wolverhampton £30,125 total prize money<br>Ludlow £29258 total prize money..
However Ludlow was selected as the principle meeting of the day..
Have I got it wrong and could you confirm your method for selecting the principle meeting
Cheers
