Good morning...

Yesterday, unfortunately...

I got a bit distracted - there weather was good,

And, as a result, not as much got done as I had anticipated.

Today I will knuckle down and plug away.

I have 3 current mini projects that I will get finished today and then it'll be back to the longer term projects and then onto the Focus Ratings price rise.

Task List...

In order to be honest and truly transparent with you...

I will now be publishing my task list on the Morning News.

You will be able to see what I am working on and, more importantly, what progress I am making.

Here are the current tasks...

T01). Work out a number of strategies to utilise R9 and provide Focus Rating members free Portfolio Betting selections across a number of different betting strategies (win backing, place backing, dutching, laying and, the other thing that I described that I don't know what it is called) on a daily basis.

T02). For Compass Ratings, display, on screen and via a email PDF, the twice weekly updated trainer/jockey win/place strike rates.

T03). For Compass Ratings, complete the eBook that explains all the weird and wonderful things that I have learned about Hong Kong Horse racing.

T04). Complete PaperTradeIt.com - a free site where you can privately log your bets and get Strike Rate, POI (to ISP and BSP) data and losing run analysis on those bets.

I'm trying to knock off the easy/quick jobs first in order to reduce the size of the list; the size of the list scares me sometimes and, believe me, I have twice as many jobs on the Admin/BAU (Business As Usual - things like automated scripts, backups and server log file analysis - stuff that all website owners have to do) task list to get through as well.

Focus Ratings

Here are the results in the Traffic Light Results PDF format... Yesterday's Traffic Light Results

Yesterday's Results, show a strike rate (for our top rated horse) of 30.43%.

Yesterday's Live Ratings, show a strike rate (for our top rated horse) of 26.92%.

Yesterday's - Link to Follow - results for All Races (including previously unrated races), show a strike rate (for our top rated horse) of 13.73% from all 51 Races (including previously unrated races.)

The Overall Profit Index. If you had blindly backed every top three rated horse in all of the races you would have had 124.32 units returned to 67 units staked. The Overall Profit Index was, thus, 85.55%

Top Rated Horse - There were 7 winners from the top rated horses from 23 Races. If you had blindly backed the top rated horse in all of the races you would have had 28.62 units returned to 23 units staked. The Top Rated Profit Index was, thus, 24.43%

2nd Rated Horse - There were 2 winners from the second rated horses from 21 Races. If you had blindly backed the 2nd rated horse in all of the races you would have had 28 units returned to 21 units staked. The 2nd Rated Profit Index was, thus, 33.33%

3rd Rated Horse - There were 4 winners from the third rated horses from 23 Races. If you had blindly backed the 3rd rated horse in all of the races you would have had 67.7 units returned to 23 units staked. The 3rd Rated Profit Index was, thus, 194.35%

Non Handicap Races - Top Rated Horse - There were 6 non-handicap races yesterday. From these races there were 2 Top Rated winners. Thus, the Strike Rate (for Top Rated Horses) was 33.33%

Top Rated Horse - If you had blindly backed the top rated horse in all of the races you would have had 6.37 units returned to 6 units staked. The Top Rated Non-Handicap Profit Index was, thus, 6.17%

Something to make you smile...

Flight 293...

A plane was taking off from Kennedy Airport. After it reached a comfortable cruising altitude, the captain made an announcement over the intercom, "Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking. Welcome to Flight Number 293, nonstop from New York to Los Angeles. The weather ahead is good and therefore we should have a smooth and uneventful flight. Now sit back and relax - OH MY GOD!"

Silence.

Then, the captain came back on the intercom and said, "Ladies and Gentlemen, I am so sorry if I scared you earlier, but while I was talking, the flight-attendant brought me a cup of coffee and spilled the hot coffee in my lap. You should see the front of my pants!"

A passenger in Coach said, "That's nothing. He should see the back of mine!"
