Anybody had a play with harness racing before?
I know pretty much nothing about it, apart from its boring, and theres lots of really short horses going round.

Anyone got some suggestions on looking for a lay system to try out for them?

Can be lucrative thorns.
I look for horses that have a strike rate of less than 10% and that are in the market.
I always make the fav the worst result and have the 2nd horse and any that fit the above criteria taking the money. Can go long stretches going nowhere then a huge result makes it all worthwhile.

Cheers Mark. Yes they do seem quite lucrative to run on the side, especially now I have a bot and can automate everything. Will have a play round with some ideas and see how I go.

Any good sites you know of for getting the form and various stats?
