Hi Max,

Don't be disheartened.

Aim for 5-15% POT, study hard and be patient.

I don't use systems, however I do use a systematic approach to first find my selections and from there, seek value prices.

Punting is one of the hardest games around, mostly because of the psychological rollercoaster ride that winning and losing runs provide.

I'd suggest thinking in winning months rather than winning days.

Lastly, If you're looking for consistency I'd suggest betting each-way or 2 horses per race when the value is there. Often one of your selections will be affected by pace, jockey, track or trouble in running issues, so backing more than one in a race can alleviate some of these problems.

Hope this is of some assistance and good luck today if you're placing some investments!
