I myself do something similar over the quiet ale,
Usually four or five of us head up the local wednesday night for a social couple, literally,
We all throw in a few bucks each and the boys leave it to me to put the trots or dogs on, its commonly refered to as earning beer money, thats the whole idea, a few free beers ! and a yack. We take the 2,3,4 or fifth fav, take them for a win then stand them out in a small tri (sometimes),
More often than not, i would say 80% we all walk home with a couple of TAB Bundy and cokes each for roadies, i wouldnt do it seriously though!

Good luck Oaksnaf
Cheers dingo

Hey Dingo, taking out the favourite made me wonder what my results would be if i excluded the Pre-Race favourite.

I was only able to get 12 runs from this out of the last 26 races, whcih indicates 50% of my selections are pre-race favourites and don't seem to offer a lot of odds. So when i loose 2-3 its hard to make it up.

If the selection is Pre-Race favourite exclude the race.
If the selection isn't Pre-Race favourite then its included
If there are more than one Non-Pre Race Favourites eg; $5, $8. Then you take the lowest odds one.


Here are the results (exlcuding all races that had my selection as a pre-race favourite)


16/09/2005 Ballarat5 Vindication unplaced

16/09/2005 Harold Park3 Stormy Crusader 1st $3.10 $1.80

16/09/2005 MV2 Dicks the Man unplaced

Based on $5 win bets:
