For anyone interested,here is a method of sorting the class runners in a race.You will need the Sportsman to do it.
1)Make a note of the prizemoney for todays race.
2)Go to the detailed form section of the Sportsman and make a note of each horse coming down in prizemoney compared to it's last start,and sort them into order
3)Look at each horse again and sort into order the horses going up the least in prizemoney
4)Eliminate any contender that has not raced in the last 22 days
5)Eliminate any contender that did not finish within 4 lengths of the winner last start
For those who don't savvy,the Sportsman has a figure in brackets for each a horse contests,i.e ($50)after it's name means the last race it ran in was worth $50,000.
An example;
Randwick R9 yesterday.
1 Lil Elsa $120k down
2 eliminated
3 up $20k
4 eliminated
5 $18k down
6 $12k up
7 $12k up
8 $23k up
9 $12k up
10 $12k up
11 $18k down
12 eliminated
Lil Elsa was clearly the class runner,and the only other 2 runners coming down finished 3rd and 4th.
If you had made No.1 your banker and taken the other two going down and the other 4 going up the least in a link up like this;
1x6x6 trifecta @ $1=$33
return(unitab) $500.40
F4 1x6x6x6 @ 50c=$60
return $13,000+
quinella 1x6 @ $10
return $58.10x10= $581
And for anyone who is wondering if I did the answer is yes!!!I also had a good "go"on the winner,the only thing I couldn't believe was the price!!
Apologies if I bored anyone with such a long post.
Good Punting
