CRASH'S PLACE PLACE
 
Boy, everyone knows here I am a win only man mostly. However, I'm a bit intrigued by efforts to bet the place and make a profit. Not so easy considering the SR required to beat the place due to odds paid.

Obviously the best place [no pun intended] to look is at the reasonable shorties as they seem to pay up to 50+% of the win price often enough to maybe make a go of it.I came up with a little bit of a system as guidance plus a bit of race reading, so lets see how we go for awhile. Concentrates on 1st to 4th PP favorites. Maximizing odds is definitely the go, so AIS is my preferred bet site [anyone know a better one for place bets?].

The system guidence is: I ignore all maidens, 2yr. olds, Cups, Stakes and Special event races and below C2. Distances between 1100m and 2050m on good tracks only [PP is for good tracks only]. First and second uppers are ignored as are 57+kg. carriers except on Sat. [57 1/2 kg. is OK] after claims.
Everything else is race reading with a 'yes' or 'no' bet.


Today I had 4 selections. 2 of them have already run with 2 to go in WA.

Place only-

Albury:
R5/6 Paint box [unp]
R8/7 Coolroom Candidate [W$4/$2 STAB and $2.07 AIS where I placed my bets].
York:
R6/4 Under Attack
R7/7 Old Value

Outlay 4 units.

R7/7 Old Value [unp].

Outlay 4 units. Return AIS 3.5 units. Loss 0.5 units. 3 out of 4 to make a profit is a hard ask.
Paint box started 2nd. fav. and Old Value Fav. Both had good Jocks. See what tomorrow turns up.

Unlucky today crash.

You need to find some value runners rather than try to tip 75%. If you can get all your runners paying $2.00+ you only need to hit half of them.

Good Luck Tommorrow.

I had a big place only bet yesterday in Prince Rhubarb looking it had decent form and was meeting a field of only 8 hurdlers, got $2.25 with surebet and was just hoping that it would get run down in the straight, it did and that made me very happy, as there is nothing worse then betting place and it gets up and wins, other then running fourth that is.

partypooper 24th March 2006 01:03 AM

Crash,
My "turf" here (so to speak) as you know I have been heavily into place betting for a few years now (apart from my spell away)

What I really want is BEST of 3 totes, I'm told it is available but I can only find it for the win NOT place only.

My compromise is to back Half of the stake @ best of 2 totes (i.e. S/Tab + NSW TAB) and the other half @ Unitab, so at least I always have a taste of the best price.

My S/R is still hovering around the 75% mark.

Interesting though, my stakes have been spread around a bit so far (deliberately) so am more than a bit concerned about that OTHER thread regarding winning accounts being closed.

crash 24th March 2006 07:02 AM

Thanks punters for the input.

This place business really is an interesting exercise. Yesterday was my second go at it. The day before I had about 15 bets and broke even. If I had left the 'Newmarket' alone and the race before and after it [loss bets]. I would have made money. I was using a straight system approach. Something I made up that does produce a high SR but mostly too many bets [yesterday was an exception].

PLACE THE RULE-FITTING FAVORITE SYSTEM

Any day except Sunday or night and public holiday meetings.
Ignore below class C2 races. Cups, Hurdles, 2yr olds and Stakes races.
Distances 1100m to 2050m only and in Good conditions only.

1, select the PP favorite.
2. must not be first or second up unless it has a very good record for 1st and 2nd up.
3. must not be carrying more than 57kg. after allowances. 57 1/2 kg. for Sat. Metro.
4.must be in barrier 9 or less except on big tracks.
5 must have raced within the last 21 days.
6 if the PP favorite fits the above it's a Place bet.
7 if the favorite doesn't fit the rules move on to the second favorite etc.
8 if more than 1 horse is on the 2nd fav. line, the lower TAB No. is 2nd. etc.
9 Ignore the race if one of the first 4 PP favorites doesn't fit the rules.
10.Do not back females against males [unless her name starts with Macka:-)]

On Wednesday this produced too many bets. I back-fitted it over about 100 races from races with the PP odds I'd copied and pasted from the WAtab site [trying to build a PP databank but it's a bit of a drudge putting in all the results at the end of the day]. A very high SR of about 85% was achieved.
SA last Sat. was 8 out of 8. Melb. lost [on every Stakes race]. NSW [lost on the stakes except 1] and Qld both won.

I think the go is a bit of race reading and not too many bets. A few
big bets is always better than small bets and lots of them [win or place]. The system needs another rule to reduce bets [last start 16 days?] or race reading anyway.

Trying for $2+ odds gets into rocky ground. A place of $2.50 is often from a runner paying up to $15 for the win ! The $2 to $6 SP [they pay up to $3.50 the place] to win seems to be the best ground to find place bets with value I think [longer odds are too heavily backed for the place and $15 SP is often paying only $2.50/$3 P], but I'm not sitting in front of a monitor all day so I go on the PP odds only. AIS pays better than 2 Tabs [only]. Trap there is that often the 3rd TAB price is often better!!

crash 24th March 2006 12:14 PM

Well I'll I'll see how these go today. They are all the horses by the rules above.

crash 24th March 2006 01:09 PM

The win in exposed form is a good one Party. But jeez, there are a few good claimers around. Keen as mustard these kids. I do rule out 4kg. claimers though !

Sale R7/3 certainly deserves some more place dosh on it. Heck, I might even take it 1x6 each way !

Albury R8/1 might get a few more place pennies on it [has a claimer too].

I've put most races in but the ones marked * are stakes races [only 1 out of 7 placed last week].
I haven't looked at days since last ran so the list can be reduced further if you like [ For Saturdays I'm changing the Days since last start rule to 7 or 14 days to improve fitness and to make sure it was a Sat runner last start].

I'm also using a bit of race reading so the rules are bendable a bit for my selections. No point in just putting down only the exact system tips. Anyone can do that themselves but I would keep the barrier and 16 days since last start rules in if you do. The rules are guide only for me especially on Sat. I chuck in some handicapping.

Gday Crash

the removal of a selection for the place because of 6 runners intrigues me.. Why is it not a bet... they pay a win and 2 places for a 6 horse field.. Isn't the dividend better when only paying two place divvies? The pool is divided by 2 instead of 3?..

This is a genuine question, coz I see lotsa people flick 7 and 6 horse fields, but to me that doesnt make lotsa sense.. To my way of thinking if you find a place getter in these circumstances the rewards are higher...

Hi Kenchar,

Good results but what is the actual system ["Here's a place system that might be worthwhile"] your recommending, or are you just posting results?

Cheers, Crash

crash 30th March 2006 07:18 AM

I have now adjusted the rules but as always they are a guide.
Considering the amount of races on Sat. I'm thinking of adding: Must have a win or place in one of the runners last 2 starts or perhaps a min. place SR [?]


PLACE THE RULE-FITTING FAVORITE SYSTEM

Any day except Sunday or night and public holiday meetings.
Ignore Cups, Hurdles, Maidens, 2yr olds and Stakes races.
Distances: any to 2050m only and in 'good' conditions only.

1. select the PP favorite.
2. must not be second up.
3. Ignore horse over 6 yrs.
5. must have raced within the last 18 days.
6. do not back females against males [unless her name starts with Macka:-)]
7. must have at least placed at the distance [or within 50m from it]
9. if the PP favorite fits the above it's a Place bet.
10.if the favorite doesn't fit the rules move on to the second favorite etc.
11.if more than 1 horse is on the 2nd fav. line, the lower TAB No. is 2nd. etc.
12.ignore the race if one of the first 4 PP favorites doesn't fit the rules.

Interestingly I tried out the basic system last Monday night for awhile on the Greyhounds for something to do.

kenchar 30th March 2006 09:29 AM

Crash,

Excellent results, but my own belief after a few years betting place is that you have to work to a minimum price of $2, if you want long term profitability.

Those prices you have there are fine IF you can continue the strike rate, but as we all know it is racing after all and we all know what happens.

Cheers

partypooper 30th March 2006 12:13 PM

Crash, what's good about this idea is HEAPS of action, so even if only a tiny profit can be made there's no problem at all getting to a decent turnover without placing very large bets on a few horses (which obviously can affect the divies)
My place plan only gives 5 bets a week on average so it has that built in weakness, another point is that if I miss a bet (has happened) it can be a disaster, whereas with smaller bets it doesn't matter (as much)
Anyway keep it up, for that streak!! hahah!

crash 30th March 2006 12:34 PM

What got me Party was listening to about 4 or 5 of those greys win in a row !
About 7 winners overall !! Hard to take for a win man having place bets.

The actions the thing. Safe and potential small profit [or loss]. I like to handicap my own choice horse races to win. I don't have many bets. Maybe 1 or 2 a day except for up to 5 on Sat. This place thing give me some action during the week. It's quiet out here in a small town [thank god the tourists have gone back to the city with their noisy power boats and jetskis after the School hols].

This place stuff is cheap pleasure although I'm naturally working on it to be profitable in it's own right.

Kenchar I know what you mean. Problem I see is $2 to $3 place quickly gets you out to backing horse for the place outside the top 5 a lot. Where most place money is bet for the place. So small divvies for horses $6 to $15 SP. $2.50p for a $12 SP horse is common. SR in that price range becomes a lot harder and will be correspondingly lower. Serious handicapping, not a system would be required and at that stage. I would be thinking, stuff the place I can handicap for the win at much better odds and better profitability.

You are probably on the screen watching prices and opportunities. That is the only way to chase $2 average prices for the win. I just haven't the time or inclination to bet like that. That's the problem for me and anyone else who can't, or doesn't want to watch last min. odds before betting. Of course, some people enjoy that type of punting and I'm not suprised it's more profitable than what I'm doing here.

Cheers.

Serious handicapping, not a system would be required and at that stage. I would be thinking, stuff the place I can handicap for the win at much better odds and better profitability.

You are probably on the screen watching prices and opportunities. That is the only way to chase $2 average prices for the win. I just haven't the time or inclination to bet like that. That's the problem for me and anyone else who can't, or doesn't want to watch last min. odds before betting. Of course, some people enjoy that type of punting and I'm not suprised it's more profitable than what I'm doing here.

Crash,
What you have quoted is so true except the divies, you do NOT have to go past the 4th fav in any bettable race, BUT you do have to be watching the screen constantly.
It's the only way I know to bet and if I was made to bet any other way I would be back in the workforce super quick.
Today another good day but got caught short with a couple after the jump when they crashed (no pun intended)

Kenchar,
I know where your coming from. When I look up results I see many selections I would just not back from the pp list. Today has been a good example [one 2 go before I post results]. Some winners but overall loss. Still, cheap thrills.

Tomorrow I'm going to handicap some [few] selection and try and get on top of this place scene. This is boring. No system is going to do it it seems. Still. lots of fun without too much loss exposure in a quick system approach.
