Morning News

Good morning...

Having had a nice day off...

It's back to work on looking into a possible strategy for identifying forecasts.

As I've mentioned before, initially I'll be looking at what happens when the top rated horse is also the clear favourite and the second rated horse is clear second favourite but...

I have a few more tricks up my sleeve.

I should have the basis of a strategy and some updates for you by Wednesday.

For more detail on yesterday's results, here are the results in the Traffic Light Results PDF format... Yesterday's Traffic Light Results

Anyway, 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 10.53%.

Yesterday's Live Ratings, show a strike rate (for our top rated horse) of 10.53%.

Yesterday's - Link to Follow - results for All Races (including previously unrated races), show a strike rate (for our top rated horse) of 10% from all 20 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 33.35 units returned to 53 units staked. The Overall Profit Index was, thus, -37.08%

Top Rated Horse - There were 2 winners from the top rated horses from 19 Races. If you had blindly backed the top rated horse in all of the races you would have had 4.6 units returned to 19 units staked. The Top Rated Profit Index was, thus, -75.79%

2nd Rated Horse - There were 2 winners from the second rated horses from 17 Races. If you had blindly backed the 2nd rated horse in all of the races you would have had 8.25 units returned to 17 units staked. The 2nd Rated Profit Index was, thus, -51.47%

3rd Rated Horse - There were 4 winners from the third rated horses from 17 Races. If you had blindly backed the 3rd rated horse in all of the races you would have had 20.5 units returned to 17 units staked. The 3rd Rated Profit Index was, thus, 20.59%

Non Handicap Races - Top Rated Horse - There were 9 non-handicap races yesterday. From these races there were 2 Top Rated winners. Thus, the Strike Rate (for Top Rated Horses) was 22.22%

Top Rated Horse - If you had blindly backed the top rated horse in all of the races you would have had 4.6 units returned to 9 units staked. The Top Rated Non-Handicap Profit Index was, thus, -48.89%

Non Handicap Races - Top Three Rated Horses - There were 9 non-handicap races yesterday. From these races there were 4 Top Three Rated winners. Thus, the Strike Rate (for the Top Three Rated Horses) was 44.44%

Something to make you smile...

Pickle Slicer

Bill worked in a pickle factory.

He had been employed there for a number of years when he came home one day to confess to his wife that he had a terrible compulsion.

He had an urge to stick his penis into the pickle slicer.

His wife suggested that he should see a sex therapist to talk about it, but Bill indicated that he'd be too embarrassed.

He vowed to overcome the compulsion on his own. One day a few weeks later, Bill came home absolutely ashen.

His wife could see at once that something was seriously wrong.

"What's wrong, Bill?" she asked.

"Do you remember that I told you how I had this tremendous urge to put my penis into the pickle slicer?"

"Oh, Bill, you didn't."

"Yes, I did."

"My God, Bill, what happened?"

"I got fired."

"No, Bill. I mean, what happened with the pickle slicer?"

"Oh...she got fired too."

Today

Today's early test ratings show 19 rated races from three meetings.

Have a great day's racing!

As always...

My kindest regards
