Indeed

Im backing Lake Kinneret ew 14/1 to get out of it........ :woohoo:

Dont despair we'll make it up at the goat track

Got the PA at least - not enough to even break square though - must be the first time in quite a long time since I managed only 1 leg in the P6 - and that was the last where I had 6 runners :ohmy: time for a break :huh:

Surely we can do better - you had excellent insight into the races today. You were on track everywhere - maybe played where your own analysis suggested you shouldn't , otherwise I enjoyed your insights.

I notice on this site that there are top players here - usually the ABC clanners have the short list down to an art - what needs to be done to get better at picking the winner of the shortlists.

No one that offers a selection for every race will be very successful. The sole purpose of my postings race by race is to complete a grid of angles that I am building per track - basically a track profile.

Professional punting demands that one accepts that there is not a profitable play in every race - even if you are reasonably sure that a favorite will win, it may not be a sustainable bet in the longer term strategy, and investment path.

Most angles do not have a better strike rate than selecting the un-unnamed favourite. Some angles though off that lower strike rate have a positive ROI. The art of racing is to know which angle can deliver a positive a positive ROI ...

If you can do that you are unlikely to be wagering in more than 2 or three races a day. wagering on the outcome of every race is an exersize in futility as far as ROI goes.

Any punter would be far better off if he took all the money he planned to wager on the 9 race card for the day - spent 2-3 hours studying any single race with various angles, and then wagering all that money on that one race.

Believe me I can do much better than what I managed today

I am absolutely certain you can
