Thanks Crackone,

Makes for interesting thought.

Two observations:

1. I love laying odds on favourites over the jumps - anywhere in the world.
Two very short priced favourites over the jumps fizzled today.

2. A perfect example of what can be achieved when the price is too short on one, so the other becomes value.

A huge plunge on Star Touch in race 4 Strathalbyn $10.00 into $2.90
My method selected Alpine Storm which went from $2.15 to $4.40

Regardless of the outcome, Alpine Storm was almost a double overlay in my books @$5.70 on Betfair and 76% plus drift.

Alpine Storm just nosed out the plunge horse ;)

If we rule out the plunge horse for a moment, and look at the price of Alpine Storm, it becomes obvious. All we need is an ounce of edge and we have overs.

All fine and dandy to talk after the race, but patterns keep repeating over and over.

Another good day today Chrome.
By my count there were 20 horses to back today of which 7 won, and 23 lays of which only 6 won.
The prices I took gave me around 8 units profit.

3.09 units profit for me today.

I had 25 lays for only 7 winners
I had 22 bets for 6 winners

But I stuck to the original rules which included wagering on odds on shots.

Will post full tally later tonight, as I'm off to a meeting.

May Tally

832 Wagers
43.22 Units Profit (less 5% commission)
5.19% POT

April / May Tally

1735 Wagers
135.40 Units Profit (less 5% commission)
7.80% POT

2.09 units profit today.

A shocking Friday..

21.79 units loss, still up 20 plus units for May though.

:eek:, :eek: and double :eek:

Bad luck Chrome. Onward to June.

Hi Angry Pixie,

Just about every movement went against me yesterday.

Looking at the figures the two worst betting days are Wednesdays and Fridays, but I can't come up with any concrete reasons why.
