I never said it was the only thing to punting, but it is a big part of it.
Don Scott used maths to find the best weighted horse in a race.
Many now use time ratings to work out the best prospect to bet on.
It is possible to pick winners and make a profit by just using maths, as it is possible to do the same with out maths. |
