Hi guy's...I tried posting this before but didn't work I'll try again now.

The system rules:

1. Selection must not be older than 5 years of age
2. Selection last time raced within 7 day's ago
3. Jockey riding selection must be in the top 5 on premiership table
System only was used on Saturday meetings at Adlaide, Melb, Syd Brisbane metro tracks.

I paper tailed this system for 6 months and it made around $100,000 but due to other commitments could not continue (don't know how it would turn out with real cash???) and I was wondering if there is anyone on this forum who has the resources to test this system out for a longer period than I did. Hypothetically, I started with $1000 and bet 5% of the bank to achieve the amount stated above. Look forward to your response.

Just looking at those system rules my guess is that 5% of your bank will kill you.

Just ran the System rules with slight modification ( To restrict to SR, MR, BR, AR Saturdays only) and I don't have a running table of Jockeys in top 5 so I juyst chose a those from the current top 5 list on ************ website...

As per most systems the ROT is approx 86% using Unitab figures.

Good Luck.

Top 5 percentage of riders at the track is an angle I have never thought about. Sure makes a lot at sense though but where do you find the list?

I can't give free plugs here but give me an em address and I'll send it.

You'll find the top 5 trainers per race there too.
A punter could come up with all sorts of systems using the top 5 riders and/or trainers per race on any particular track.

These horses also have top 5 SR trainers for the track*

Thanks for running the test wesmip1. What period of time did you run it for? What strike rate did you achieve? It usualy used to give a winner every 6 to 7 selections, but thats not to say it's going to do that now. My records for the 6 months was 36% strike rate.

Crash...not good this week end, eh? Perhaps it will pick a winner next week and put the balance into profit...I hope! ha ha ha.

Angry pixie...I hope that is not the case, but with all staking plans I guess it's all a matter of consistancy of selections and most importantly value dividends...only time will tell, eh?

Thanks again for your responses guys.

I was thinking that 86% ROT for such a simple system was pretty good actually, especially at Unitab prices, but one thing that puzzles, lcm123, you say that you achieved 1 winner in 6 or 7 (about 14%) yet you go on to say that you achieved 36% S/R?? not knocking just confused?

lcm123,

That test was over 3 years of data. The Strike rate was 17%.

Good Luck.

I thought ROT of approx 86% pretty good.

With a few simple filters it could be improved no doubt. I'd change the 'within 7 days' to exactly 14 days only [14 days is always a better turn-a-round than 7 days]
