The following are a good rule of thumb whilst not being the 'be all and end all' they do help get regular winners (~30%POT)!

For them to qualify as a selection, they must:
- have placed >40% of the time (wins included)
- be in the top-5 in stake money. Caveat: beware a horse that has won 1 good race and nothing since as that may distort the $%
- have finished either 1st or 2nd last start OR in the top 4 placings
- have finished within 2 lengths of the winner or within 3 lengths if genuinely hampered in the straight
- not have risen >1.5kg over minimum from last start, OR 2kg if BELOW 55kg
- have had 3 to 4 starts back in their current campaign with a break of no more than 3 weeks from last start.

Also include Moeee's suggestion of using top 5 in SP and you should be pretty much covered.

Happy punting and good luck
