Morning News

focus-ratings-mornoing newsGood morning...

Pontefract certainly seemed the place to be yesterday...

With 5 top rated winners from the 7 races.

Once again, if you had blindly backed the top rated horse in every non-handicap race, you would have made an overall profit.

Apart from that, nothing else really stands out and I've just realised that I'm scheduled to implement the first of the changes to speed up the ratings today.

You won't see the effects of this until tomorrow as today is really "test day."

So, 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 23.26%.

Yesterday's Live Ratings, show a strike rate (for our top rated horse) of 23.81%.

Yesterday's - Link to Follow - results for All Races (including previously unrated races), show a strike rate (for our top rated horse) of 23.26% from all 43 Races (including previously unrated races.)

Something to make you laugh

The Clown

A lady is throwing a party for her granddaughter, and had gone all out..... a caterer, band, and a hired clown. Just before the party started, two bums showed up looking for a handout. Feeling sorry for the bums, the woman told them that she would give them a meal if they will help chop some wood for her out back.

Gratefully, they headed to the rear of the house.

The guests arrived, and all was going well with the children having a wonderful time. But the clown hadn't shown up.

After a half and hour, the clown finally called to report that he was stuck in traffic, and would probably not make the party at all.

The woman was very disappointed and unsuccessfully tried to entertain the children herself.

She happened to look out the window and saw one of the bums doing cartwheels across the lawn.

She watched in awe as he swung from tree branches, did mid-air flips, and leaped high in the air.

She spoke to the other bum and said, "What your friend is doing is absolutely marvelous. I have never seen such a thing. Do you think your friend would consider repeating this performance for the children at the party? I would pay him $50!"

The other bum says, "Well, I dunno. Let me ask him. 'HEY WILLIE! FOR $50, WOULD YOU CHOP OFF ANOTHER TOE?"
