Target the 7 shortest Newspaper pre-post priced horses.
Races with 11-13 runners only.
Race fav must be $2.60+ at jump , otherwise its a no bet race.
Re-Frame the total of the 7 horse's pre-post prices ,market percentage value by multiplying its current percentage by 1.10 & bet the overs.
e.g. market % for the 7 horses could be 106% X 1.10= 116.6%
Now input this 116.6% into the box & every thing will be worked out for you in one second.
Bet same amount on each.
This hits on plenty of winners.

One can use Ozrace tools to do all this for you.
Market Re-Framer.

And somet, I'd like to know, why was my post edited by the moderator? Said absolutely nothing defamatory, wasn't even promoting crackers!
Incidantally Duritz, there are no factorials of negative numbers, hence (liberty of multiplying by -1)
Thought, it would click with all of you, sorry.

Good luck to all of you.

Some of the edits that occur by moderators on this site are, at the very least mystifying at times.. I have read on numerous occassions that the owners of the site, as is their right, are cautious of potential legal action being wrought against them... Whilst it is obviously the owner of the site's right to be cautious, I will also reserve the right to be, how do I put this, bemused, by some of the things that are done in the name of moderation..

With this in mind, I recall the following There was a moderator, a few days ago on another thead who posted, when a contributor was waxxing lyrically about diseminating information from this site to the public domain :

This Forum and the internet sites smartgambler.com.au and propun.com.au are the assets of OZmium Pty. Ltd. They have a substantial financial value.

They DO NOT belong to the public.

If someone, for example, copied our Punt to Win betting advice articles and published them in a book our lawyers would take legal action.


and then promptly closed the thread... tsk... what? No discussion? Just a gag... what is this? the Australian Senate? have the Libs taken over here and we haven't been told? , Any dissent and we will close you down? Again it may well be the right of the owner to do so, I am not arguing that it is not...

The above post by the moderator may be totally correct, and probably is.... My point? The only mention of litigation that I have seen on this site has been from the moderators themselves.... Not by anyone who has claimed be defamed or otherwise injured by comments on this site, by contributors... Maybe the moderators are just a wee bit precious, in what they deem inappropriate.. in their over zealous editing practices. at one stage they had software running that would not aloow the word horse to be posted... we are afterall adults.. But hell.. what do I know? I would guess on this site, I am not entitled to hold that opinion... Time will tell

Now after my rant...

Simple ratings.... I think a pretty fair base of any ratings is beaten margins, I believe they are very important to knocking up some ratings that are worth a cracker.. Another area that I have looked at is an SP profile.. this alone seems to point you towards the main chances in a race. Using the usual, distance/jockey/trainer/track/formline/W%/P%/API etc added to the 2 I mentioned above, I think will bring the main contenders to the fore..

As has been said earlier, the newspapers are pretty good too

Hi XP.

The editing business you were referring to, I think was mainly about the claim that amounted to declaring the forum is a public domain [public property] and all the material in it could be copied and sold as a book . I think Neil was pointing out the obvious for anyone reading the post now or in the future, that in no way is this a 'public forum' but a privately run commercial operation that to become members off and use, members have agreed to 'term and conditions' of use.

I imagine that posts asking for explanation are [usually] not answered because explanation inevitably leads to more posts and even possible argument. I guess moderators have better things to do with there time than justify themselves or their actions and if we don't understand them, 'tuff luck' would be the expression that is probably on their lips :-)

As far as ratings go, they are only another tool, a piece of the jigsaw puzzle we are trying to fit together in finding winners, hopefully with more value than their SP suggests. By themselves they are useless.
No ratings, regardless of how well put together they are will put food on the table without some handicapping effort involved as well or are used as an ingredient in a profitable system. The top 5 selections in good ratings might have 85% of all winners among them, but so do the top 5 newspaper form prices which can also be used as a guide to handicapping and in systems just as readily.

When accountants are working out tax returns they use a calculator or adding machine of some sort, not because they are incapable of doing all the calculations themselves without one, but because it saves them time, money and contributes a great deal to the overall efficiency of their business operation. Good quality calculators cost peanuts. So do good quality ratings.

The bit deleted, was the claim by Duritz regarding his intellectual property right to his post.
Like registering his title to it? don't want to use the proper word, it might be deleted automaticly.
I just noticed, it was deleted from his original post as well.
Good luck to all.

Anything written on this forum becomes the property of the the site owner[s].
That is very clearly stated in the terms and cond/t. of use that we all agreed to, regardless if we read them or not. Obviously Duritz hasn't and nor had I until just recently. That's why it's fresh in my memory.

Hi Mad,

Getting back on the track of this thread, for something very simple have you tried ranking certain factors to come up with a rating.

For example: 10 horses in a race, best av. prizemoney gets 10, next best gets 9 and so on down the line.
Then add win strike rate ranking and place strike rate ranking.

Sportsman Chartform is good for this.

Pretty simple, easy to calculate.

Good Punting.

Top rank!
Not wanting to be a wet blanket but, - unless you only wanted this to be an example of what can be done -, this method will guarantee you the short priced favourites. What's the point of working that out?
It's all there for you already.
I would include the proviso, of not having had a win, or preferably even a placing, in the last 3 runs, unless all 3 runs were way up in class!
Good luck
