There is another thing we differ on. favourites. The quickest way to lose money is by backing favourites. I'd never support anything under $4 in any case.

Still, I've been making a successful living from punting using my own statistical based method for 3 years now so I must be doing something right.

I think it is hard enough to find a winner in flat events let alone finding a winner that has to negotiate 20 fences. Do you know the differences in probability between a racehorse falling in a flat race in comparison to a jumps race? I do.

I like watching jumps races, in fact earlier this year I attended an all jumps meeting at Fontwell Park in the UK and yes, bet on all the races! I had a great day out but draw the line on jumpers when it comes to serious betting.

Good luck.

Sorry...the comment "your choice mate" is for the originator of this thread "iamcool" I meant that it is now his decision to whether or not to take on board any comment I have made.
