Sorry to hear, it seems like your giving the game away.
4 years is nothing my friend.
I've been searching, researching, learning, testing and analyzing for 24 years, with the last 5 years almost fulltime.
I've finally got to a point where it's all falling into place, and can now be compensated for all the time and effort for the next 24 years.
There are no miracles in this game, and to find even a 10% edge is getting harder and harder as time goes on.
But it can be extremely financially rewarding and satisfying to prove to yourself and to "others" that it can be done.
Had I been a little smarter and not been steered by the so-called professionals in the wrong direction, I could have cut this time ten fold to arrive where I am.
The best piece of advice I can give, which I wish I had years ago....
"It's not just about picking winners, the most obvious horse will most probably be the least value. There is value in every race, you just have to look for it. The most favoured in the tipsters poll, the most popular jockey, the best stable, the highest strike rate, the best form, the highest class, the shortest price, will all lead you to a high strike rate, but a loss - UNLESS you find within all of that something that the public is generally not aware of - AN EDGE."
Best of luck.
