I have a mate who swears by this system. He explained it to me months ago but I never followed it up. Feel free to rip it to shreds, why it can't/won't/can/will work. By whatever means he narrows fields down to 5-10 picks, his logic is that if you can't pick the quinella/trifecta in that many then you don't deserve to win. He then uses Friday's Courier Mail, (my guess is any paper will do)& crosses out any runner whose opening price is longer than the paper's price. This can narrow it down to 3-8 picks. He then boxes the rest for an outlay close to $100 eg 6 picks, for Q, 6x5 divided by 2 = 15, x 7 = $105. For Tri 6x5x4 = $120. Q x7 & tri x 1 . Outlay $225. His average outlay for Q's is $105 & Tri's $125. Reckons it works on Syd & Melb Saturday races. MR7 last week was a big result for him & the reason he got back to me. Apparently he got it down to 8 picks, 5 of which were chucked out on opening prices. Guess what he was left with, 1-4-12. Q paid $50.30 & tri $1319.30 (qld). He didn't say what he won, but should have had Q 33 times (quite probable) & Tri 17 times (unlikely, unless I see him getting around in a new car). What do others think?
Good Punting.
