Hi Enjay,

I believe the system is start from horse no. 1 and work your way down the field until you find a horse that ran 1st or second last start. Only one selection per race.

Today's results:
Seymour 5 - Houfu 2nd
Hawkesbury 3 - Earnest Ernest unpl

The Schmile

Thanks for that Schmile. Obviously I did not go back and look at the original post.

Bah Humbug to this nomination for system of the year. I posted a system about improvers which comes up the goods but I don't have any friends to nominate mine for system of the year, so in true yuletide spirit "the pox on all your christmas stockings" .....

Sorry.I forgot that important rule

From the Top down

Selection must have placed 1 or 2

Distance ONLY <1010

Sorry, I can't see how this is a winning lay system.

You are targeting the best horses to lay.
It probably came about because the top horses are overbet on the tote, but they aren't on betfair, where you are laying them.

It's a 25.29% win strike rate at all odds, the more fancied the runner is, the higher the strike rate.

For favourites that qualify under the rules, the strike rate is a whopping, 37.62% strike rate.

I'm afraid you are more likely to make money backing these on betfair, than laying them.

(muffled chuckle) from Barny .....

I think UselessBettor was the first to point out that the winning system for 2011 actually loses!! Thanks to Chrome too, otherwise those of us who don't do their own DD might have started laying this only to lose to those backing it.

Oh well, back to the drawing board .....

4/4 successes today.
Now.What was the question.

Number 24 didn't win all day either Darky ;)
