Two punters went to the races today armed with a wad of cash. One to Warwick Farm. One to Sandown. Both had a new selection strategy they heard from a mate who heard from a mate who read it on the Net. Simple system: select the lowest numbered last start winner.

The guy at Warwick farm had a beauty. Six placegetters in seven. Went home a believer.
The guy at Sandown crashed. Two places in eight races. Blamed the heavy track. Went home and kicked the dog.

(Another guy at Ispwich scored two places out of three and another guy at Gawler scored two out of four. Both went home happy but not convinced.)

Total today in twenty two races (one scratching from 23) = twelve placegetters. 54%. Few winners, but King of Soul at $5.80 (Vic TAB) was a nice start to the day.

Have to check to see which staking stragegy worked best, but still enough action in this system to keep me interested.
