I've gone out of my way to help fellow punters over the years only to be the subject of abuse and negativity. There is some wonderful information available on this site for punters prepared by people who have done all of the hard yards for you. Unfortunately, that punter mentality kicks in. You know the one, "yeah, right, THAT can't win! I can pick something to beat it." So you ignore the advice right there before your eyes and go with your own theories only to lose yet again.

A number of years ago, I spent months, my own long service leave, travelling back and forth 6 days a week, 10 hours a day to the Brisbane State Library analysing race results into statistics until I was almost blind! Finally, I came up with something workable and effective as a base method of horse selection that I still use today.

I've regularly shared some of that information here over the years, posted a contact email address and spent hours helping fellow punters only to end up copping a mouthful of inane abuse from a poster that I previously respected. I now wonder why I ever bothered.

Use this goldmine of information here at Propun wisely. Research it! Be flexible in your thoughts and lateral in your thinking. Be prepared to accept and respect the ideas of others and of course, never, ever, ever bet on a rain affected track!

Good luck
