osulldj,

Thanks for posting that - saved me running the query on my database. Those results are pretty much exactly what I expected to see - a higher strike rate in the less competitive early races than the later more competitive (generally speaking) races but pretty much the same loss throughout the day. The one interesting point is the very low loss on race 8. I read the other day that favourites in the last race show a better profit (the theory being that the mug punters are looking for a big winner to win back their losses for the day so tend to back the outsiders more in the last race so the favourite starts at longer odds than it should). At the time I dismissed it but maybe there is some truth to it after all!
