Hi everyone, I'm new here but I'm an avid punter. Just love it. I guess if you bet every race your gonna take a tumble. Why not pick the worst race in australia on any given day and try your system then. anything could win at good odds.

By definition, the worst race in Australia on any given day is probably a race which is unsuitable for many people's systems, but let's look at today anyway:

I would say that the worst race today was R1 at Orange. A field of 7 starters and 6 of the runners had compiled 32 runs between them without a single solitary placing. The other runner was a first starter and given the awful form of the other 6, it didn't have to be all that good to have a great chance. Sure enough, it won at $20. Easy to be wise fter the event though. ;)

Now, as for systems that could have picked this winner, you could have used the sole first starter in a maiden. That one's not a bad system. Or then there's simply backing R1 number1, no matter the form.

Any ideas Sportz, as to why the first starter had to carry an extra 2 kilos...?

It was a maiden plate (set weights), so the 3 geldings had 2kgs more than the 4 fillies and mares.
