Morning News – 2022/03/15

6620418Good morning...

Yesterday, Roy (my partner at Intelligent Betting) mentioned that, although he was busy at work, he did notice that a lot of the profits from the new R10 spreadsheet did seem to come from those races where R8 = 2

Let me explain...

For Focus Ratings, the R8 ratings are where the top rated horse for Focus Ratings is also the top rated horse for Advance Ratings (two totally different ratings agencies.)

If the top rated horse on Focus Ratings is also the top rated horse on Advance Ratings then R8 equals 1.

However, if the top rated horse on Focus Ratings is the top rated horse on Advance Ratings but, also, the second rated horse on Focus Ratings is also the second rated horse on Advance Ratings then R8 equals 2...

And so forth.

I did some analysis and came up with this...

R8

As you would expect, as the R8 number increases, the strike rate also increases.

However, most of the profit comes from the races where R8 equals 1 or 2.

And, as we all know, Strike Rate is vanity, it's profits that count.

So...

I updated the spreadsheet to take a look at what happens if we just look at those races where R8 equals 1 or 2.

I have updated the spreadsheet online at... http://focusratings.com/docs/R10_top_rated.xlsx

The interesting tab is tab 10). Refined 2

This shows a win bet strike rate of 61.72% and a win bet POI of 70.17%

However, once again, my real aim is to somehow identify the best race of the day and then produce multiple bets for that race.

Ideally there would be both a win bet and place bet for the top rated horse. a place bet for the second rated horse and a place bet and lay bet for the third rated horse.

I shall continue working on that, this week.

Something to make you smile...

Expensive Parrot...

A man goes into a pet shop to buy a parrot. The shop owner points to three identical-looking parrots on a perch and says, "The parrot on the left costs $500 dollars."

"Why does the parrot cost so much?" asks the man. The owner says "Well the parrot knows how to use a computer."

The man then asks about the next parrot and learns that it costs $1,000 dollars because it can do everything the first parrot can do plus it knows how to use the UNIX operating system.

Naturally, the increasingly startled man asks about the third parrot, only to be told that it costs $2,000 dollars.

Needless to say this begs the question, "What can it do?"

To which the owner replies,

"To be honest I have never seen it do anything but the other two call him boss!"
