Morning News

Good morning...

Our Investment Betting, Advance Ratings System 1 and Earlybird Ratings Diamonds and Gold selections (all of which come free for Focus Ratings members)...

Were all profitable yesterday.

I spent most of the day working on the strategy for predicting the forecasts but, I have to say that, the best I have been able to come up with is a simple system with a 20% strike rate and an 85% profit on investment.

I was hoping for better and am a bit disappointed that, in order to achieve those figures, we miss out on the high priced forecasts...

Which, of course, are all part of the fun.

So, another day sat in front of a spreadsheet for me.

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 25%.

Yesterday's Live Ratings, show a strike rate (for our top rated horse) of 25%.

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 17.55 units returned to 24 units staked. The Overall Profit Index was, thus, -26.87%

Top Rated Horse - There were 2 winners from the top rated horses from 8 Races. If you had blindly backed the top rated horse in all of the races you would have had 4.55 units returned to 8 units staked. The Top Rated Profit Index was, thus, -43.12%

2nd Rated Horse - There were 1 winners from the second rated horses from 8 Races. If you had blindly backed the 2nd rated horse in all of the races you would have had 13 units returned to 8 units staked. The 2nd Rated Profit Index was, thus, 62.5%

3rd Rated Horse - There were 0 winners from the third rated horses from 8 Races. If you had blindly backed the 3rd rated horse in all of the races you would have had 0 units returned to 8 units staked. The 3rd Rated Profit Index was, thus, -100%

Non Handicap Races - Top Rated Horse - There were 4 non-handicap races yesterday. From these races there were 2 Top Rated winners. Thus, the Strike Rate (for Top Rated Horses) was 50%

Top Rated Horse - If you had blindly backed the top rated horse in all of the races you would have had 4.55 units returned to 4 units staked. The Top Rated Non-Handicap Profit Index was, thus, 13.75%

Non Handicap Races - Top Three Rated Horses - There were 4 non-handicap races yesterday. From these races there were 3 Top Three Rated winners. Thus, the Strike Rate (for the Top Three Rated Horses) was 75%

Something to make you smile...

The Silent Treatment

A man and his wife were having some problems at home and were giving each other the silent treatment.

Suddenly, the man realized that the next day, he would need his wife to wake him at 5:00 AM for an early morning business flight.

Not wanting to be the first to break the silence (and LOSE), he wrote on a piece of paper, "Please wake me at 5:00 AM."

He left it where he knew she would find it.

The next morning, the man woke up, only to discover it was 9:00 AM and he had missed his flight.

Furious, he was about to go and see why his wife hadn't wakened him, when he noticed a piece of paper by
the bed.

The paper said, "It is 5:00 AM. Wake up."

Today

Today's early test ratings show 25 rated races from four meetings.

Every race is rated.

Have a great day's racing!

As always...

My kindest regards
