Morning News

Another impressive day...

Not only did we achieve a pretty decent strike rate for our top rated horse but,

Both our First Page Strategy and our Place Betting Strategy selections were profitable.

So far this month, for our First Page Strategy, we have had 101.5015 points (after commission) returned to 87 points staked.

And, interestingly enough, for the non-handicap races, yesterday the Strike Rate (for the Top Three Rated Horses) was 76.47% - good news for the dutchers.

Anyway, let's get on and take a quick look at yesterday's results in more detail....
