Thanks for any replies.

Saw the heading and was going to contribute .............. my stats would have brought the averages down !

Yes Barny just my luck too!
My eyes lit up when I saw the title, another hope dashed.


Cheers

Is there some secret that I don't know about ?? I thought this forum was about sharing ideas and perhaps improving our knowledge so that we could all get better at the punt ? I searched the forum about this subject and found nought, which I thought very strange as from my very limited experience it appears to be a very important part of the puzzle.

Sorry about the levity Ken, what specific stats are you after?

Cheers

I feel career starts should be added to these two things,i cant look at age without also looking at career starts,imo its more i mportant than age.

This iks not based on any class. Just every race in Aus.

Age:

2 6758 666 5050.4
3 36300 3861 27681.2
4 42073 4678 35120.8
5 30335 2727 23792.2
6 17432 1325 13253.8
7 9094 564 6765.4
8 4037 207 2357.6
9 1276 80 913.1
10 410 14 176.1


Sex:
C 4516 542 3451.3
F 20311 2035 14856.8
G 85185 8192 67998.9
H 2728 249 2085.6
M 35011 3101 26760.8


It is selections, winners, unitab return.

In my small data base that i have kept myself, I have found that in open class 4g-5g-6g have won 285 times out of 447 races, 4g=109, 5g=120, 6g=56 [285] , where as 3yo won 17 so I dismiss any 3yo in my selections.

But how many 3yo's were entered in those races,until you know that you cant rule them out,whose to say they dont have a better strike rate than the 6yo's?

Thank you all for your replies, the only way I can improve is by asking questions.Is there a newbie guide ??
