Morning News – 31/08/2021

6620418Good morning...

I am still sort of catching up on the backlog of work but, one of the things I shall be focusing on are the Focus Ratings R9 Portfolio results.

This is very exciting for me as it is basically a new way of betting on horse racing.

A bit like dutching but more logical.

This is what happened yesterday...

These were yesterday's selections...

Basically, the Advised bet is the safest race of the day.

The Bankers Bet are those bets on the safest two races of the day and...

The Chancers bet are those bets on the 3 races that have the highest Race Reward/Risk Ratios.

Thje Place bets are the top 5 place bets based upon Reward/Risk Ratios.

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 19.57%.

Yesterday's Live Ratings, show a strike rate (for our top rated horse) of 18.75%.

Yesterday's - Link to Follow - results for All Races (including previously unrated races), show a strike rate (for our top rated horse) of 18.37% from all 49 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 96.5 units returned to 132 units staked. The Overall Profit Index was, thus, -26.89%

Top Rated Horse - There were 9 winners from the top rated horses from 46 Races. If you had blindly backed the top rated horse in all of the races you would have had 25.65 units returned to 46 units staked. The Top Rated Profit Index was, thus, -44.24%

2nd Rated Horse - There were 8 winners from the second rated horses from 46 Races. If you had blindly backed the 2nd rated horse in all of the races you would have had 33.35 units returned to 46 units staked. The 2nd Rated Profit Index was, thus, -27.5%

3rd Rated Horse - There were 8 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 37.5 units returned to 40 units staked. The 3rd Rated Profit Index was, thus, -6.25%

Non Handicap Races - Top Rated Horse - There were 14 non-handicap races yesterday. From these races there were 2 Top Rated winners. Thus, the Strike Rate (for Top Rated Horses) was 14.29%

Something to make you smile...


In The Beautiful South Pacific...

On a group of beautiful deserted tropical islands in the middle of nowhere, the following people are suddenly stranded by, as you might expect, a shipwreck:

2 Italian men and 1 Italian woman
2 French men and 1 French woman
2 German men and 1 German woman
2 Greek men and 1 Greek woman
2 English men and 1 English woman
2 Bulgarian men and 1 Bulgarian woman
2 Japanese men and 1 Japanese woman
2 Chinese men and 1 Chinese woman
2 American men and 1 American woman
2 Irish men and 1 Irish woman

One month later on these same absolutely, stunningly beautiful desert (and deserted) Islands in the middle of nowhere, the following things have occurred:

One Italian man killed the other Italian man for the Italian woman.

The 2 French men and the French woman are living happily together in a menage-a-trois

The 2 German men have a strict weekly schedule of alternating visits with the German woman.

The 2 Greek men are sleeping with each other and the Greek woman is cleaning and cooking for them.

The 2 English men are waiting for someone to introduce them to the English woman.

The 2 Bulgarian men took one look at the endless ocean, another long look at the Bulgarian woman, and started swimming...

The 2 Japanese men have faxed Tokyo and are awaiting instructions.

The 2 Chinese men have set up a pharmacy, a liquor store, a restaurant, and a laundromat. And have got the woman pregnant in order to supply employees for the store.

The 2 American men are contemplating the virtues of suicide because the American woman keeps endlessly complaining about her body, the true nature of feminism, how she can do everything they can do, the necessity of fulfillment, the equal division of household chores, how sand and palm trees make her look fat, how her last boyfriend respected her opinion and treated her nicer than they do, how her relationship with her mother is improving, and at least the taxes are low, and it isn't raining....

The 2 Irish men have divided the Island into North and South and set up a distillery. They do not remember if sex is in the picture, because it gets sort of foggy after the first few liters of coconut whiskey. But they are satisfied because at least the English aren't having any fun.
