Here's a method I've been looking at on and off for some time but never bet because I checked only TAB results which showed them luke-warm. But now because of Betfair's availble S.P. facility I recently fine-tuned the method, checked a few results from recent racing which happened to show promise, and consequently began betting on Monday.

Since then there have been 19 races for 11 winners. There has been a total of 107 selections, each of which I backed for $5 on Betfair S.P. The outlay has been $535 and more importantly, the return over the three days has been $725 which is a 35% POT. The profit betting with the TAB would have been $39.50, or 7%.

The rules are very simple:

1) Minimum of 13 starters.
2) Every horse with at least two career starts.
3) Back every horse that is $11 or less in the Telegraph (**************) market.

Admittedly, there have been two winners that paid over $30 which obviousally has distorted the results, but hopefully these winners will pop up and every now and then.

I'll list the seletions today and see how they go. Hopefully the Forum Curse will leave the method alone.
