First 3 in the Tipters Poll
 

I have been watching the first 3 in the poll for a couple of weeks.

The results are: 108 selections for 25 winners a strike rate of 23% which is not bad. I will contine to watch this.

Have you also looked at eliminating any horse which is picked on top by all the journos.
Some great value in their alternate selections.

Nudge Nudge Wink Wink (Coat tug).

108 selections means you've only looked at 36 races. Much too small a sample to get carried away with Benny, as 1 Saturday alone will give you more than 36 races.

The results up to 27/12 are 45 winners from 202 selections still around 22.3% s.r

I'm not yet ready to bet as this is just a small sample. I may bet after 3 months results.

one of the reasons i dont look at this type of method is that it has a selection in every race. makes a punter flat out like a duck paddling
take it easy - have fun. and we dont learn anything other than betting someone else's picks.

i recall the old royal routine system which someone gave me in 1962
it had a shilling on the first selection of each tipster with a minimum of 10 tipsters in the newspaper poll. e.g. 10 lines running on each race talk about a major project.
i never did find out if it worked or if anyone else ever made it work.
does anyone out there know?

TOPSY. That was the first system I ever bought.A complete dud.

Did you ever try the PATARINA.?Always wanted to know about this one.

Ah the good old Royal Routine.
Not the fastest way to the poor house, but you get there eventually.

imagine paying yourself day labour to run the royal routine.
you'd be worth a fortune.
certainly a lot of effort goes into staying solvent in racing.
its almost a good enough reason to give it away.
