Hi Jose. You're comments are very much appreciated.

I had the current problem about six months ago, and fortunately it healed itself in about three weeks, so it was/is not as bad as yours. I've also heard that acupuncture can be quite beneficial.

From today I will begin a stretching program.

Thanks again.

A couple of my friends with back probs found walking on one of those motorised

tread mills that are programmed to go incline & decline, at various speeds,

worked wonders for their pinched back nerves.

They hired them for $10.00 a week to see if that is what they needed, before buying them

Hi Michael,


Do you have today's selections out of interest? I hope you are feeling better. I had that pain before after injuring myself through exercise and boy was it real pain so I can feel your pain mate.

Cheers,
Mark

Thanks Bhagwan.

I work-out at a gym. That's where I think I caused my problem because I mainly use heavy weights.

There are tread mills but can only be adjusted to an incline angle.

When I return I will do stretch and incline tread mill exercises.

Thanks Marksto2.

It worries me to lay any horse that is the top Unitab selection without applying any logical filters.

However over the three days of laying the system, there have been 13 selections for 10 smiles for a profit of $40.33, so who knows. It will now probably crash.

Today's selections are:

Eagle Farm
2/13
5/10

Warwick Farm
3/15

Wyong
5/17
7/13 - this is a selection in my Place system.

Murray Bridge
2/7
9/16



The scratchings for Narrogin and Bunbury haven't yet been loaded. Assuming there are a minimum of 11 runners; the selections haven't been scratched and that they remain in the bottom half of the final acceptances, then the selections will be:

Narrogin
7/8

Bunbury
1/14
2/11
3/15
5/14
6/11
8/10

Hi Michael,

Many thanks, I am just trying to think if there are certain races where the ratings are not reliable where the top rater would consistently lose ie maybe Maiden races only or early 2 yr olds.

It would be great if someone could run it through a database to verify this wouldn't it.

I'm ending the system because of today's two accidents, I didn't keep any records but I'm almost certain it would have lost.


I've been looking at another "illogical" lay system:

1) Identify the top neural selection based on the default/factory settings.
2) Minimum of 10 runners.
3) Lay the top selection providing it has less than 200 neural points.

I have always found the neurals can be quite puzzling, so I decided to see what would happen if the top selection was layed. I've restricted the top selection not to exceed 199.5 points. There was one selection today at exactly 199.5 points - it was beaten.

I haven't been keeping accurate records because if the selection is/was under $7 I would lay it for one unit of $5, because the liability would be lower than S.P. And, conversely if it's price was over $7, I would lay it with S.P. so that its liability was only $30.

Sunday there were 28 selections for 27 smiles, 19 of them were single-figures with Unitab divvies. It was a massive day.

Monday was break-even, mainly due to the low prices, which I layed non-S.P.

Tuesday there were 9 smiles from 10 selections for a profit of about $20.

Today I only layed S.P. because my back seems to be clearing up (please Forum Curse, please leave it alone) so I decided to lie down (fortunately there was not too much pain) and watch the cricket. There were 24 smiles from 26 selections for a profit of $54.15.

It's an illogical system, but then people may easily have the impression that the neurals are illogical, and therefore the system might just turn out to be logical.

That looks like it might be a good system michaelg.

I had a quick look at todays picks and the 2 accidents were quite low in price which is great.

I wonder if wesmip1 might have some stats for this.

The Ocho, today will test the method. There are 12 selections, 7 of them are the pre-post fave.

Ballarat
4/9
7/10

Scone
5/7
6/4
7/8

Launceston
2/6
6/6
7/2
9/2

Albany
3/11
7/7
8/1

I'll be laying them S.P., but I think laying them for the same amount may be the way to go because of their expected low prices.

Only 1 accident today as far as can tell and that paid all of $1.40 on Unitab :)

Well done.
