I have been having success with laying the inside barrier in races of 1,250 and less in fields of 10 and more. There were no accidents yesterday.

I've now looked at a free site that tests systems - Thorns and Bhagwan are aware of it.

Testing the above system for only Saturdays shows an overall loss of 34% on Win betting from 890 races.

I do not feel too comfortable laying this system on tracks that have a short stright or at Flemington where there is the "six straight" as inside barriers may not be a disadvantage.

There are only two Saturday tracks that are under 300 metres, and the results for the system on each are:

Ascot - 100 races for a 7.30 LOT.
Moonee Valley - 41 races for a 2.68 POT.
Flemington 43 races for a 19% POT - not a bad result for Win betting.

Omitting these three tracks would increase the Lay profit. I have also been using the system on mid-week racing with good results.
