When you say betting on the top horse in each category, is this the outright top selection in each category because quite often there is more than one horse with equal top points? In the method I'm currently testing with CP and $, I eliminated any equal-top selections as they did not perform, even though there were only a few selections. If the neurals are accurate, then being equal top does not really give any one horse a distinct advantage over every other horse in the race.
