Barny's Bottler of a System
1) 4th or 5th up after a spell without a win this time in.
2) We want either demonstrated improvement in each of it’s runs or simply an increase in distance regardless of how it ran. The demonstrated improvement can either be 1) through finishing closer to the winner in terms of distance beaten or 2) it’s actual finishing position or 3) being run in a better class field.
3) Work from the topweight down and back the first one to qualify – let’s settle for the handicappers choice of class horses.
NO days between runs, barriers, weight or those other things that can mess with your mind !!
Suggest you back it for two runs on the basis of encountering bad luck when it was ready to win …..
Rule number two is an absolute bottler and has been brewing away in my cranium for decades, finally released after a cab sav or ten ….. gotta go and look at boat catalogues, that’s how confident I am !!!
Fire away with any critique and I'll happily give you my warped logic on how I constructed these rules.
