Thanks Partypooper. I pulled up betstar site I will contact them via phone on Mon to clarify if place only will apply. In the past I bet mainly win with a few eachway. Place betting is new to me. This should work okay each way. My cousin puts it this way. "ratings are to find the winner, sometimes the winner places but most times they are there or out of it. The placing horses are always going to place." Today was 7 out of 8. My cousin works all week, his missus gets his pay. Friday she gives him $20 Saturday he lives in the TAB. His takeout is his booze for the week. He is happy showing his mates that he can pick them. He has records of every horse he ever backed or even considered. $100 on each of his selections would double his wage. Some of the selections today I baulked at $1.20/1.40 is hard to handle. But $2.20 and $3.20 are good. Beltrious and O'Lonhro (the only loss) I backed straight out.
Thanks again
Wally
