Off the mark there Crash.
Malcolm doesnt sell racing systems.
He does sell quality researched aricles about varying aspects of the racing game at $2 a copy though.
I have been dealing with Malcolm for over 20 years so I know what I am talking about here.

Cheers.

From personal experience I can recommend Malcolm's books. I have several of them. Normally he has specials on at this time of year so that is the best time to grab them. My personal favourite is his book on staking. It is a completely different approach and very thought provoking.

Aritro,

I'm in the same situation you're in. I've been researching the last few weeks on how to go about it but I would like someone to share information with and discuss racing principles, concepts, books etc..

I think working in a small group throughout your punting career can help on our success as a punter

If you're interested in working with someone else who has the same goals let me know.


Cheers,

mjh

A good exercise to begin with is using the Wizard or Sportsman racing papers and profiling individual horses .
The Wizard is only available online from everyrace but contains more racing information than the Sportsman.

i.e Fav distances
How they perform over various track conditions
Weight carried in successes or failures
How they perform with individual riders
etc etc etc

I would concentrate on Class horses normally weighted from 56 Kg and upwards.

Cheers.

Thanks for the info.

I think profiling horses is an excellent idea and something I'll look further into.

mjh,

keep at it my freind you will get there if YOU what to.

Good place to start is the books from Barry Blakemore (Queensland) dont get to tied up in the system part of it but it will teach you what you need to know to get on the way.

Mate read & read them untill you no them by heart great info.

No l dont know the man so nothing in it for me.

Good luck,
