Over the past few days, 120+ races, backing prepost favourites 2-4, came out in the black.....by a miniscule amount. Suggests that staking, plus the introduction of a filter or two (or form study) could make this sort of thing work.
On Monday 7 March, from records of 23 races:
PREPOST FAVOURITE ORDER STARTING PRICE ORDER
1. Won 6 races Won 7 races
2. 3 races 4 races
3. 6 races 5 races
4. 4 races 4 races
----- -------
19 20
----- -------
$1 on each of 2nd to 4th prepost, resulted in a profit of $4, across the 23 races.
Tis interesting to do this sort of thing. Not really my form of betting either. Also requires an afternoon of sitting at the computer. The unmanageable run of outs has not happened in 7 days of record keeping, but got very close...scary stuff. Working around fields of 6-10 seems to be one answer.
The table above for Monday, does point out, that to look much beyond the top four in the markets (bush meetings at least) is probably a waste of time.
