Morning News – 07/04/2021

6620418Good morning...

Even though I got a lot of work done yesterday...

I haven't got much to report on.

I am getting very close to finishing much of what I am working on but,

Not quite there yet.

Those of you who are members of Intelligent Betting should expect an article to be published this morning.

One of the ideas that I suggest in that article may seem a bit wacky but I prefer to think of it as thinking outside of the box.


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 R8 and provide Focus Rating mem height="746"bers 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.

T05). Re-launch Intelligent-Betting.com - very good good things are happening there as we speak and it is becoming a vital (and also, very profitable) tool for those who like to think about their betting.

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 28.57%.

Yesterday's Live Ratings, show a strike rate (for our top rated horse) of 27.59%.

Yesterday's - Link to Follow - results for All Races (including previously unrated races), show a strike rate (for our top rated horse) of 25.81% from all 31 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 65.06 units returned to 83 units staked. The Overall Profit Index was, thus, -21.61%

Top Rated Horse - There were 8 winners from the top rated horses from 28 Races. If you had blindly backed the top rated horse in all of the races you would have had 22.17 units returned to 28 units staked. The Top Rated Profit Index was, thus, -20.82%

2nd Rated Horse - There were 5 winners from the second rated horses from 28 Races. If you had blindly backed the 2nd rated horse in all of the races you would have had 14.39 units returned to 28 units staked. The 2nd Rated Profit Index was, thus, -48.61%

3rd Rated Horse - There were 4 winners from the third rated horses from 27 Races. If you had blindly backed the 3rd rated horse in all of the races you would have had 28.5 units returned to 27 units staked. The 3rd Rated Profit Index was, thus, 5.56%

Non Handicap Races - Top Rated Horse - There were 8 non-handicap races yesterday. From these races there were 5 Top Rated winners. Thus, the Strike Rate (for Top Rated Horses) was 62.5%

Top Rated Horse - If you had blindly backed the top rated horse in all of the races you would have had 15.01 units returned to 8 units staked. The Top Rated Non-Handicap Profit Index was, thus, 87.63%

Something to make you smile...

Drill Sergeant...

A drill sergeant was known to be brusque with his men.

His lieutenant warned him to try to be more sympathetic:

"I don't want to interfere with your discipline but when there is bad news to relate, please be more diplomatic."

"Yes, *sir!*"

"Now, I have received bad news for one of your men: George Martin. It seems his father has been in a bad traffic accident. Please break the news carefully."

"Yes, *sir!*"

At roll call, the sergeant says: "Fall in everyone. Martin, if you call home today and don't get an answer, it's your dad."

After Martin finds out the truth, he goes crying away to his bunk.

The next day, the lieutenant reprimands the drill sergeant once more: "Look, Sarge, this can't continue. If you can't think of a kinder way ....to deal with this kind of news, we'll eliminate this practice from roll call. Now I'm giving you one last chance. Gomez's mother died last ....night You know what to do."

"No problem, lieutenant!"

Roll call: "All right, all you maggots, fall in! All those with living mothers step forward!" And in a quieter tone: "*Not* so fast, Gomez."
