Hi Chrome Prince,

Did you ever follow this one up?

I had a look at laying the late mail horse but only if it wasn't too high (say not over $12 or so) and for the last 7 days (since last Wednesday) you would of lost -65 points if backing going on the Unitab price. I didn't check it for the lay bet odds that Betfair would of offered and I haven't removed any commission but 65 points. GEE

If the commission and higher lay bets were taken into account I reckon maybe 50 points (or 45 points) for lay betting, not bad in one week.

The only bad day was Saturday where it lost 12.7 units (if laying).

I tried to marry it up with being a 100 pointer or fav or both and ended up with (for backing): 100 pointer -3.1, fave -14.9, both -0.6. So those extra filters have not helped it, you just would of lost less for backing (or won less for laying).

Maybe it's been one of those weeks where the late mail source has just been unlucky. I know it got a number of seconds which would of probably made all the difference.

The only problem for someone like me is that the late mail doesn't appear until, well, late and I therefore can't input the selections into my bot before work. DAMN!

Anyway, have you, or anyone else, been following this angle?
