Morning News

Good morning...

Another stunning day, yesterday...

And I have made some progress on the new Place Betting strategy.

Speaking of which...

We only got a 50% strike rate from our two selections yesterday (sorry about that) but we did get 3.45 points returned form the 2 units staked.

Which is pretty good in my book.

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

Yesterday's Results

Yesterday's Results, show a strike rate (for our top rated horse) of 34.09%.

Yesterday's Live Ratings, show a strike rate (for our top rated horse) of 34.09%.

Yesterday's - Link to Follow - results for All Races (including previously unrated races), show a strike rate (for our top rated horse) of 36.17% from all 47 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 81.52 units returned to 124 units staked. The Overall Profit Index was, thus, -34.26%

Top Rated Horse - There were 15 winners from the top rated horses from 44 Races. If you had blindly backed the top rated horse in all of the races you would have had 39.39 units returned to 44 units staked. The Top Rated Profit Index was, thus, -10.48%

2nd Rated Horse - There were 5 winners from the second rated horses from 40 Races. If you had blindly backed the 2nd rated horse in all of the races you would have had 18.83 units returned to 40 units staked. The 2nd Rated Profit Index was, thus, -52.92%

3rd Rated Horse - There were 6 winners from the third rated horses from 40 Races. If you had blindly backed the 3rd rated horse in all of the races you would have had 23.3 units returned to 40 units staked. The 3rd Rated Profit Index was, thus, -41.75%
