is my understanding right about this betting method?

*****************************************
if I select 3 horses, then it cose me $3, and if any of those 2 win or in place then I win

but what as if 3 of them all get in, does that mean it pays three dividends
combinations

1 2
1 3
2 3

Yep, if any 2 of them finish in the placings you win, and if all 3 finish in the placings, you get all 3 dividends.

Last Saturday was a real mess for me

That's better. Just make sure you start off real slow and don't bet too much.

Regular,if you want results of previous late mail,go to www.tabonline.com.au go to racing on left hand side then click on racing at top,then go along top and you will see results and search.Click on that,insert dates and then click on appropriate races and you will find the late mail selections as sportz indicated,hope this helps.I think you will find with flat stakes you will incur a significant loss.

Yes, I certainly wouldn't be relying on the late mail either. I looked back at how they went on Saturday and it wasn't good. One thing I've noticed though. When the late mail horse is at $10 or longer in the betting, it can sometimes make a nice each way or place bet. It doesn't happen often though, so you'd have to be patient. Just two on Saturday:
MR5-6 Songs Of Vienna PLA $3.00
MR8-2 Econsul PLA $2.90

It's just something that I've noticed over the years, but I haven't actually checked it out over a long period, so I don't know how it would be backing every one. Probably not that great.

Well, there you go.

Golden Slipper:
Stratum (Late Mail) WON $12.10/$3.90 :D

Sportz,

Checked out the last three yearsish up to the end of 2004 and late mail on horses $10 and over returned 1419 units from 1706 bets (83.15%) on the win and 75.70% if you put them on for the place. That must be why they make a living giving tips and not off the punt :-)

Hmmm, yeah. Oh well, back to the drawing board. :)

However, I still think they are worth thinking about occasionally in big races like Stratum in the Golden Slipper etc.

Yeah, that was just a blanket report on all the races, big and small.
