Hi all, Finally the flat is back with us, and after a couple of days at NH racing, its time to stop watching the racing and form reading, and concentrate on being lazy!! So I want to test a few systems - No better place to show how good/bad it is going!! All bets are placed at BSP - because I am too lazy to work out when is best to place the bet!

Since 2010 386 races had horses with 1 or more starts previously - 179 of those races were won by horses with one or more previous start - 46% of the races are won by horses with one or more start. However, that includes 1056 horses. The ROI for those races at BSP are 0 runs - 16% ROI 1 runs - 6.7% ROI 2 runs - 80% ROI 3 runs - -74% 4 runs - -100% What that shows is that you have to back big prices at BSP!!! If you looked at all of those different groups at normal SP you would be losing money backing any of those groups.
Two winners but unfortunately at short prices. 3.01 and 3.78 respectively and a non runner too! Not too disheartened as plenty ran well. -27.55 (40 staked)
Favourites finishing positions (oldest to latest): ,2,2,3,1,2,2,1,1,2,2,1,1,3,3,2,1,3,2,(1,2),1 The percentage shown is the percentage of the total number of runners who fell under that factor. High percentages are less appealing than lower ones as you would expect them to do well. 20 / 20 (78%) - 1-8 Starts over 2m 20 / 20 (84%) - Had 4-15 placings (Non-Hcps) 20 / 20 (84%) - Not G3/Lst/Cl4/Cl5 (LTO) 20 / 20 (85%) - Not Lst/Cl4/Cl6 (Last Win) 20 / 20 (86%) - Carried 156 lbs or more (LTO) 20 / 20 (86%) - Furthest ran 2m1f - 2m5½f 20 / 20 (87%) - Had placed over 2m1f+ 20 / 20 (88%) - Furthest won 2m½f - 2m5f 20 / 20 (89%) - Had won over further 20 / 20 (89%) - Made 1-3 starts (90 Days) 19 / 20 (46%) - No bigger than 6/1 19 / 20 (61%) - Within first four of market 19 / 20 (65%) - First 3 or Fell (LTO) 19 / 20 (80%) - 6-15 starts in Non-Handicaps 19 / 20 (81%) - Contested at least a Grade 2 18 / 20 (61%) - Had placed in a Graded race

I’m not telling you that!! Each of the systems have different parameters, the April trainers for instance is a list of trainers who have more winners against expected winners historically in April.
A loss of 12.2pts on the day with just the one winner at 7.0 BSP. One non runner and all the others seemed to run half decent races. Bank now stands at +48.61pts No bets today or tomorrow. Should be able to put Saturdays up tomorrow and I will be missing in action on Monday.
