Wesmip1, not knowing about data bases I assumed the figures would have been obtained prior to the start of racing. Unfortunately I don't on what factors how R & S calculate the CP points.

I also forgot to mention that when checking the results a few weeks ago that I omitted Black Type races.

Bhagwan, I lay horses on S.P. This eliminates the large liability from a horror accident, because the loss for an $2 accident is the same ($30) as a $100 accident.

Yesterday there was a $6.30 accident from the 4 selections, yet the 3 smiles would have had the method break about even.

I like this S.P. feature because outsiders can be layed for a loss of only $30 which is the minimum allowable liability.

In fact I am currently laying an outsiders system with S.P., and after 10 days there have been 108 selections for 108 smiles. The profit is $94.39 which means that if today I have 3 successive accidents the method would be $3.39 in profit. Yet if one of those accidents was a large one then the method could be in the red, and this is a strong posiblity because the majority of smiles have had a S.P. of well over $100.
