Woof43 - what does it mean when the FormGuide has this Comment : Q1111R,Sw
I know Q means quick and R means Rails , but what means "Sw" ?


swabbed

I'm sure it means swabbed.

When I say rails to centre or wide I'm just talking in reference to how it runs to the first turn, not how it handles the turns
I think its last start when it hit the lids , I'm sure it headed to the rails after twenty metres or so, but generally it holds its ground to the turn

Thanks Woof.
Yes, Swabbed sounds good.
The Sw only seems to turn up when the animal wins, or occasionally runs second.

The Quaddie is looking very difficult.
Looks to me if I bags it, then I bags it for maybe less than 2% worth :(

Top 4 selections in my Quaddie onle.


Control???
Yeah sure, in my dreams.
Got really close to buying a First 4 , but went instead for the more easier FlexiTri.
Had I went First 4 , I mighta got a percentage.
Instead, I lost a dollar on this : 1,2,5,6-1,2,5,6-3 (FLEXI 8.3333%)

you really need to develop a matrix of trifecta stacks or F4 stacks depending on what situation arises.

Too Late now, but not for next time
 
I just downloaded the Weights sheet.

2 things I noticed were a large decrease in weight for HAMEL, who won, and also a Large decrease in weight for Napoleon Tiger, who just missed.

I knew weights were important, but the problem is I do my studies before weights are released.
I really must put a Question Mark on runners returning from spell from now on until the Weights are released.

Most good performances are normally when a dog weighs less than the its average LTD race weight.

You need to understand that I only invested a dollar!!!
I don't know how much you invest Woof43, but would you bother messing about with the intricacies if you only wagered a dollar a Race?

If I ever become skilled enough to go Professional, I would contemplate it, but I really don't think that is the reason I am losing.
The reason I am losing is because I am not anticipating the start of the Race well enough as yet.
And also my Markets need work.
They do not allow , for example, the problems Hayder Bale will have to negotiate, and the lack of obstacles that HAMEL would have.

And well done in selecting Hamel, Woof43, I'm sure you are continuing your BIG DAY into tonight.

I'm still alive in my Quaddie and need #2 or #3 to win the Last Leg to collect 1,2,5,6/6,8/F/2,3 (FLEXI 2.3437%)

moeee 2nd April 2011 08:30 PM

Well I had the ol' , "The Favourite wins every time I take a Field in a leg of the Quaddie" happen again :(

But Race 7 was another example of where I had a rough idea that Carol Allen would lead, and therefore I should have had it shorter in My Market.
Plus it went a fair way down in weight, and Lo and Behold, My SPECIAL "Allen Hertz" went up nearly a kilo :(

Thank goodness there is more racing tomorrow to make amends for tonights blunders!!
Plus 2 more events tonight :)

Well done on No Justice.

couldn't get set on Betfair that dog, it was kept very tight.

It wouldn't matter how much was invested Moee, that tri bet just didn't make sense.
