A: FACT
Can anyone be sure what a fresh horse can do? Especially young maturing horses.
You might ask, "why do this excercise, $30+ horses hardly win.."
From my limited database I believe the strike rate of horses with a BF SP of $30+ is 5% (happy to be corrected) So if we're Dutch Backing horses < BF $30, provided we can achieve a 8 -10% profit for the dutch, let's do the sums based on $100 liability:

Onya RP. I decided to seriously evaluate what longshot first starters and first uppers can do. Having been hit by them a few times when evaluating the noorals I knew that they popped up on a semi regular basis. I set my bot up to back all such horses if 30+ was available 10 seconds before the jump. There were 36 losers before the first winner this morning. My bot backed it at $110. Hooblodyray!
My first ever 100/1 winner.
