I've noticed recently a hell of a lot of decent plunges being successful.
It never used to be this regular.
There is something in the air for sure.
In answer to the second part - how is the answer.
Ordinary Joe Punter does not have the same information as the key players.
We are not privvy to closed or private trials.
Ever noticed in a race with two runners from the same stable that the more fancied runner will get all the publicity, while the second runner gets a mention of "should go o.k."
It's not until after the race is won the interview goes something like "he had been beating horse A easily in trackwork, but there was a (distance,barrier,going,weight) query."

I also have taken that truely professional punters either don't read this forum much or simply enjoy sitting back and having a chuckle as they watch us all squabble over the possibilities.
I stll belive that a managed professional approach will result in success.

I believe that true professional punters don't read forums in general, because it takes away from their A game. Also why they don't contribute.
Whilst I'm sure that there are pros on many forums including this one, you won't see the big boys here because they have developed a successful strategy that works, so there is no reason to confuse the issue with people still struggling to grasp what the pros already have or do.
Myself, I am a very small player in a big pond.
The real pros would probably turnover more in a race meeting than I do per month. But from my point of view, I have a formula for laying - every time I try something different or deviate from my normal area of expertise, I cop a hiding and go back to what I do best.
I've learned the hard way, head down, bum up and do what I do best in one area. It's boring, but it works.
