Thought I might post a system thread again since I haven't seen many lately.

Here is an idea just for fun that someone might be able to try out...

I have noticed that a lot of the winners lately have either had the highest WIN % or the lowest WIN % of the horses competing. Here are some rules to look at :

1. Horse must have highest win %.
2. Horse must have won at least once
3. If 2 selections then skip race.

And the other system.

1. Horse must have lowest win %.
2. Horse must have won at least once
3. If 2 selections then skip race.

I would be interested to see which of these actually performs better in regard to POT. I would assume the second ( lowest winning % ) would be a lower strike rate and higher POT.

Anyone want to test it out ? They are fairly simple rules.

Good Luck.

Just for ones interest - Horses with the highest ranking win percentage have a win SR of 20% of all races based on 4.5 years of results for a -14% LOT.

One will find that they are usually lowley priced ($4.30 & less) & rarely offer mid-high prices.

Ahhh, just a small point, but surely if the horse has the highest win %, then it would have won at least once!!!

Normally the kids are running amuck by now, but the family are visiting the inlaws overseas, so here on me Pat Malone at the moment. AS for the punting, i am formulating a major assault for tomorrow. Merry Xmas and good luck to all beating the punt.

I,ve just dropped the grandkids off on the Pacific Highway to play so it should be a quiet one for me too.

Good luck to all tomorrow.
