Wise One

Glad to hear you're getting on with it.

Re the $4 minimum odds....when you have established something like a method you think may be profitable, include your minimum odds suggestion as one of your selection criteria/filters to support your method. There is no harm in ruling a line through the <$4 immediately though.

I have done the stats on pre post prices and use what I discovered as one of my filters. I would strongly suggest you cap a maximum PP odds too and work within those prices. I had a recent winner that was under double figures PP but paid just over 20/1. That is not uncommon.

On the 7 days thing, let me just say this, when I have applied all of my selection criteria and come up with a horse that qualifies and I notice that it is backing up in exactly 7 days, I double my bet! Don't forget though that I only ever bet on Metro meetings and 90% of the time only those on a Saturday. All of my statistical analysis involved Metro racing only so what I say is really only applicable to those meetings.

Cheers
