Did you know if you go to players' selections you can display your picks?
I only got 4 winners today but finished -1% POT on win and 0% place, so as Chuck says it quality selections ultimately that build up the POT and keep you in front at the Tote.

Gday kiwi,
thanks for that... had a pretty nice day today.. I don't know that i could survive on backing just the one horse tho... we had some nice winners around the place today that weren't my "on top" raters.. I use the on top horses in the daily challenge, as they produce a few winners.. and score points.. I was happy with Orange Cup winner tho... upwards of 12 bucks is always nice..
POT is important, but the thing about the challenge is the POT is calculated at flat staking... ( I don't wanna start a flat V progressive staking argument here).. Personally I don't bet that way.. I am a bit of a chaser when need be, and for me, thats why the number of winners is important.. But chasing isn't for everyone and can at times get a bit ************ scary... I always draw a line at the end of each day tho.. start afresh tomorrow.. and it works pretty nicely for me .. each to their own I reckon...
I always display my picks because they are on display here (being the forum) on most days, so there is little point in me "hiding" them... I like to try and steer as many as possible into a winner or two if I can.. for me thats the name of the game |
