The funny thing is year after year the system performs badly at some courses (Ascot for e.g, always -10%) and year after year it performs well at others (Belmont nearly always +10 to 15%). Not only that, some courses have pretty consistently good months and bad months. Pinjarra for example Nov +30%, Dec +40%, Jan +25% and the rest of the year crap.

Nice day at Pinjarra Kenny.They keep you coming back.

For pure racing spectacle the Spring and Autumn carnivals are a joy and privilege to witness.I love them.The best thoroughbreds in this part of the world with the best jockeys fighting for top honours.It's the way it should be.

Tough time for punters though.Even the good provincial horses are reserved for these seasons.Hidden away under shade trees from the heat of summer and kept away from the flint hard winter tracks.They emerge to tantalise us during the pleasant months.

I find that my most successful punting is done during the off seasons.Only a few good horses around,just a handful trying to win.Despite all of the dodgy manouvering by the shysters it still seems easier to make money on the punt.

I'm going up to Taree tomorrow,was at Muswellbrook yesterday and Gosford last Sunday.If you don't believe that the "locals" know what's going to win most of the races,try attending these kind of meetings.It's an education.

Do your results indicate better returns during the off seasons??? Perhaps not,it's a bit like sex (if I recall) we all come at the same thing from different angles.Anyway.I really enjoyed your post.Good luck with your methods.They are based on sound logic and reason and clearly work for you.
