This is going in circles. Don't say its broke. Give a solution. Your six magical filters are just that - filters. You won't be giving away the family jewels. just say that these are better filters to use. Then we will know where you are coming from. Beton

Apply these to weight n class ratings and you have a profitable system.

If given a choice, at the moment I would take the 12% LOSS!!!!!!!!!!!

beton, I've just put up some information for those without a databse.

That's it !!

Happy to change the filters if someone want's me to .....

Dumb question Vortech, but do you know where the Victorian Herald Sun get their ratings ???, or for that matter, any of the newspapers ???

Thats what I am saying Barny. Don't post something that you think is broke, add the filter or 2 that makes it break even or better still, that delivers a positive POT. I am not having a go at you Barny, I am trying to help you present in a manner where everyone can have a pleasureable experience. Beton

Barny I have a friend I just sent a note to that has all that information

Basically I don't use them much as they normally take the last 3 runs or the best of 5 runs and create a base rating from which does nothing than calculate a price. The last 3 runs could be over any condition or distance range not even in comparison to todays race.

90% sure it might be techform.

Interesting posts and replies there guys.

So let me ask this question so i know i am on the right path here,
Doesn't matter this thread or others using ratings be it weight, class, speed, etc,
Leads to backing overbet favorites and no matter what we use as filters,
We must all of us lose in the long term is this correct?.

And using ratings that are free is even worse like say skyform, and their panels,
A.A.P prepost, Unitab, Don Scott etc ,all these eventually no matter what we do will lead us to the poor house have i got this right or am i wrong.

Cheers.
