Hi Chrome,
For me I would put $20 a week away until the Melbourne Cup then spread it between 5 Horses.

In general I have found that if a horse has not at least done 2800 then I can put a line straight through them.

darkydog, you've sort of ************ed up the potential of this thread .....

BTW darkydog, your (fantasy) bet shows a return of 50% not 33% as you calculated.

You hijacked this thread and refused to answer my question about ratings.

Funny on this very same thread you posted ..... "By the way. Isn,t it great that we are finally coming back to sharing Handicapping ideas like we used to do. The last couple of years I,ve felt we have been taken over by fantasy posts."

What's the point of anyone posting anything here when you come on and tell us all how good you are !!, twice in the same post "I'm a successful punter"..... I'll go, you stay!
