Comments invited about applying filters. Here is the outcome of applying various
filters to a set of actual results: you can see that applying the 21 days or less since last
start made hardly any difference to the S/R or ave. divi but did alter the POT
significantly , the winPOT going down and the place pot going UP!!



apply rule (a)
overall 21days
% wins= 33.33 33.3
%place= 71.56 71.87
WinPOT= 8.33 supertab 6.56
plce POT= 6.53 supertab 7.01
ave win= 3.25 supertab inc stake 3.19
ave place= 1.49 supertab inc stake 1.49

Then apply rules (b) (c) (d) individually, then a+b+c, then a+b+c+d and see what happens

(explanation) rule (b) place S/R of at least 50%, (c) = Last Start Winner, and (d) = not
ridden by 3kg claiming apprentice.


(b) (c) (d) a+b+c a+b+c+d
50%S/Rplc LSW noAPP

77.07 80 76.54 82.35 83.87

11.93 19.06 15.69 19.2 20.74
3.16 3.26 3.16 3.3 3.3
1.45 1.49 1.46 1.45 1.44

My question is: do you number crunchers find that this is the case in most cases or is it just
unique to my particular set of results???
