Thanks for the input, everyone. I am under the impression that 100 pointers with Techform are not as accurate as Unitab, but that may not be the case even though I applied the rules to it from 1 Aug and it showed a loss for win and place.

I did not check last Saturday with Unitab but am pleased to see that they showed a profit, especially because my Saturday neurals can be hot and cold - I am under the impression the Unitab ratings are to a degree connnected to the neurals.

Merriguy, you are right - Dombeen R1 no.5 is not the sole 100 pointer and therefore it is not a selection. I hope it does well because I've already backed it. I have now checked those that finished last start with '0' and also first-uppers. The results are:

'0' last start.
7 selections for 3 winners paying $16.30. 4 placegetters paying $9.70.

First-up
6 selections for 2 winners paying $8.10. 3 placegetters paying $4.80

First-up with '0' last start.
3 selections for 1 winner paying $4.30. 2 placegetters paying $3.60.

So far it appears that they are worthwhile backing.

Wesmip1, I'm also interested to see what your research throws up.
