Here's also some further info....
I posted a long time ago regarding the first up form of Darren, which continues to be profitable.
Horses coming off a spell which are not first starters....
653 rides
126 wins
19.30% SR
Profit $39.50
POT 6.05%
Now, let's restrict this to the powerful Hawkes Beadman combo
237 rides
50 wins
21.10% SR
Profit $47.10
POT 19.87%
Within poor prices, there's almost always an edge somewhere
So first up Hawkes rides, rides over distance, odds on rides with a filter are ALL showing profit.
Beadman's Bet Busters
Incidentally, all Darren's Metropolitan track rides for the month of September...
57 rides
15 wins
26.32% SR
Profit $14.30
POT 25.09%
That's coming off a poor August of 21.13% SR and a 19.72% LOT.
He bounced back nicely.
July was in profit
June a slight loss
May a big loss
April in profit
March in profit
February profit
January loss
In fact all his rides this year only (since Jan) show a 4.31% POT with no added filters.
