Hi, Ginger.

No, I don't use a staking plan, even though I'm sure one would increase the profit on win betting due to the high strike rate. Based on the current rules, since Sunday there have been 15 selections for 8 winners. The return for $1.00 on win betting is $18.40, while $15.00 (break-even)for place betting. Of the losers, several ran fourth. Judging on this, it appears that Unitab's ratings are not too bad. The results would have even been better if I had omitted races that have more than twelve starters. I'm currently monitoring these races as it may prove beneficial to omit them.

My Place selections have been outperforming the Unitab system. During the same period there have been seven selections for six placings including five winners. The win return is $17.80 and $9.90 for the place.
