I can only give you the betfair return after 5% commission. It is :

There were 34655 horse form lines in the database at this point in time.
There were 3261 selections for the System
There were 777 Winners for the System for a strike rate of 23.83%
There were $3178.27 returned for WIN (after 5% commission) which means a Profit or loss of $-82.73 or a percentage profit/loss of -2.54%
Test Another System
The Rules used were : donScottRank = 1



They can be improved fairly easy. Try those with the highest win strike rate:

There were 1379 selections for the System
There were 426 Winners for the System for a strike rate of 30.89%
There were $1425.9 returned for WIN (after 5% commission) which means a Profit or loss of $46.9 or a percentage profit/loss of 3.4%
Test Another System
The Rules used were : donScottRank = 1 and winSrRank = 1


Or just bet on the value bets usign a wide barrier filter:

There were 1341 selections for the System
There were 319 Winners for the System for a strike rate of 23.79%
There were $1427.52 returned for WIN (after 5% commission) which means a Profit or loss of $86.52 or a percentage profit/loss of 6.45%
Test Another System
The Rules used were : barrier >= 7 and donScottRank = 1
