Hi, Dr Ron.That was a surprisingly disappointing price because not only was it $2.20 pre-post but the third fave of $4.50 was scratched, so it could have easily been expected to start even shorter than the $2.20. It only takes one of these to win to cause damage to the system. I don't know what it was showing here on the NSW Tab. Interestingly, the other selection, In The Attic started at $2.60 on Unitab yet on NSW it was either $1.80 or $1.70 - I can't remember which.

Twobets, so far so good. Since posting here on Saturday there have been 10 selections for only one winner of $1.70. I read in the latest edition of probably the most well known punting magazine (I don't know if I'm allowed to name it so I won't) where a punter sent them some stats on TAB no.1. According to this, when no.1 starts fave, the win strike rate is 52% and the average dividend is $2.60. This is a big worry for my laying of no.1 as according to the pre-post it is the fave. Time will tell... I have also been testing the system with non-no.1. The results have not been as good, but they are promising:- since 01/01/06 there have been 24 selections for 6 winners totalling $14.70. I'll list the selections here also and see how they go. I'll call it the non-topweight system
