Given that we now know what staking plan he uses and that his selections have a poor strike rate, my question to Bert is -

What is it actually that people are paying for?

Anyone could select horses equally as good or better than Bert and just use the staking plan themselves.

The only edge Bert could possible have is high quality selections and that was proven wrong yesterday - 1 winner from about 38 races.

My worst day of all time was 15 losers in a row, next worst is about 10. Bert exceeded that on the 1st day of trials. 17 losers in a row, followed by one winner, then a whole lot of more losers afterwards.

I could pick horses at random and still achieve a higher strike rate.
