Morning News

focus-ratings-mornoing newsGood morning...

Well...

It was forecast city yesterday.

5 forecasts from the 35 races (there was another but it was only a 2 horse race.)

And no, I don't know why either.

I keep trying to work out which races are those to bet the forecast on - to no avail.

So, I'm going to fire up Wagner (my number crunching machine) and see if it can work it out for me.

Yesterday I started trialing a new strategy; it's the simplest strategy I have ever tried - no filters, just "blindly back the top rated horse in these race types."

There is a twist (there would have to be, wouldn't there) which is possibly why it has remained hidden for so long but, historically, over the last 4 years, this strategy has given a Strike Rate of 34.17% and a POI (Profit on Investment) of 58.86% to ISP.

The strategy can be further refined to give an average of 18.63 bets a week with a Strike Rate of 35.33% and a POI (Profit on Investment) of 67.71% to ISP.

I'll let you know more about this strategy after the weekend; I'm a bit wary about announcing too much too soon as it seems too good to be true - and you know what they say about things that look too good to be true....

Having said that, yesterday there were 3 selections and 2 of them won, returning a total of 5.66 points to the 3 points staked (to ISP) so I'm getting that sort of nice warm feeling that I normally only get from a glass of good Cabernet Sauvignon.

Anyway, moving on, here are yesterday's results in the Traffic Light Results PDF format... Yesterday's Traffic Light Results

Anyway, I'll get to that, firstly let's get on and take a quick look at yesterday's results in more detail....

Something to make you smile...

Thanks to Lee for this one (and the hospital jokes the other day) - I do have to say that, referring to today's joke, is that, when I younger, I spent a while working in a high street wine merchants (when they were actually wine merchants rather than off licences selling extra strong cider rather than wine) and our 2 best customers were a couple of builders who would come in after work, dirty and unshaven, and then proceed to buy a couple of bottles of wine which would cost about £30 each in today's money. Our other customers would come in, wearing their business suits, wander round for 10 minutes reading labels before buying a bottle of whatever cheap and nasty plonk that was on special offer that week.

The Wine Taster
At a wine merchant, the regular taster died and the director started looking for a new one to hire.

A drunkard with a ragged, dirty look came in to apply for the position.

The director of the winery wondered how to send him away.

He gave him a glass to drink.

The drunk tried it and said:

"It's a Muscat , three years old, grown on a north slope, matured in steel containers. Low grade, but acceptable.”

"That's correct", said the boss.

Another glass....

"It's a cabernet, eight years old, a south-western slope, oak barrels, matured at 8 degrees. Requires three more years for finest results."

"Correct."

A third glass...

"It's a pinot blanc champagne, high grade and exclusive." calmly said the drunk.

The director was astonished.

He winked at his young secretary, secretly suggesting something.

She left the room, and came back in with a glass of urine.

The alcoholic tried it.

"It's a blonde, 26 years old, about three months pregnant - and if I don't get the job, I'll name the father."
