I've been looking at pre-post markets (Daily Telegraph) where the fave is between $2.10 and $3.00. Its more than likely that a $2.00 p.p fave will start odds-on so I've passed-over these races. The method is;

1 ) The p.p fave must be between $2.10 and $3.00 inclusive.
2 ) must also be Unitab's sole 100 pointer.

The results from Thurs 1 Nov are: (Unitab divvies):

Thursday 1 Nov.
No bets

Friday
M.Valley R1 no.1 - Nil & $1.50
Mt Gambier R6 no.4 - $2.10 & $1.40

Saturday
Flemington R8 no.1 - $1.80 & $1.20
Gosford R6 no.6 - nil & nil
Rocky R7 no.1 - $2.30 & $1.30
Mt Isa R3 no.1 - $2.50 & $1.20
Mt Isa R6 no.1 - $1.60 & $1.00
Mt Isa R7 no.1 - nil & $1.10
M'ville R1 no.1 - $2.20 & $1.20
M'ville R5 no.3 - $3.50 & $1.50

Sunday
Hobart R6 no.1 - nil & $1.30
Hobart R7 no.1 - $2.20 & $1.30
Kilmore R4 no.2 - nil & $1.10
Kilmore R6 no.2 - $2.80 & $1.70.

By my calcs there have been 14 races for 9 winners paying a total of $21.00 and 13 placegetters paying $16.80.

I have not looked at W.Aust racing because I no longer bet at their venues due to their banning of Betfair.

I have also monitored the p.p fave regardless of its price and if it is not in Unitab's top 3 outright rankings then the Betfair fave is layed. Since 1 Nov there have been 9 such races and the Betfair fave has not won any of them.

Unfortunately there are no selections today for either the each-way or lay systems. If there are any tomorrow I will list them here.

do you know if the pre post markets are available online?? had a look on there racing page but couldn't find any pre post markets.

cheers

michaelg,


If the place strike rate holds up then should do Allups so that you have a good chance of making a nice profit. I would suggest going to about 8-10 races in a row.

Good Luck

Hi, Thorns.

The Telegraph's pre-post market is identical to that shown on West Aust TAB website. I think you will have to register with them to obtain the market, but its free which is surprising because of their and their government's "screw you" attitude to Betfair which is also screwing their own clientele.

Wesmip1. Yes, if the strike rate continues I will probably do so, and/or maybe a TAB parlay (I believe it has to be the same venue?) might also be the way to go.

thanks for that

Very interesting results Michaelg!

I don't have past access to p.p. info, but I might investigate that lay method and post back shortly.

HI all,
By coincidence I started doing the same thing starting last wednesday,
It was part of a rule for a place betting system that I was given yonks ago.
and actually someone mentioned this some years back on this forum.
I only have the provicinal and country tracks.
I'm looking at the favourite/non favourite at $2.00 - $3.80 paper price

I actually had four selections on the 1st oct for four wins. (all fav)

Hi, Feather.

It's good to know that it is the basis of an existing Place system. Hopefully it will prove successful.

Bet.
Yesterday's sole selections ran second paying $1.20. It should not have been a selection because it was a Maiden race but as I listed it here it will be recorded as a selection.

Today's selections:
Albury R4 no.3 - The Butler
Pakenham R2 no.2 - Moving On
Pt Lincoln R5 no.1 - One Wild Sea
Pt Lincoln R6 no.3 - Gun Bird.


Lay.
The fave in yesterday's sole race was beaten for a profit of 0.95 units.

Today's Lay races:
Flemington R1
Flemington r7
Rocky R8

A very bad day yesterday - no winners from the 4 selections and only 2 placegetters for a loss of $1.50. I'll give it a little longer and see how it goes.

One selection today:
Charleville R4 no.5 - Nine Covers.


Lay.
The fave in both selections yesterday were beaten for a profit of 1.90 units.

Today's races:
Stony Creek R5
Queanbeyan R6
Charleville R5
Charleville R7

The meeting for yesterday's sole Bet selection was abandoned.

Today's Bet selections:
Flemington R3 no.7 - Extend
Flemington R4 no.1 - El Mandon
Morphetville R7 no.4 - Macca's Mount


Lay
The fave in yesterday's two races was beaten for a profit of 1.90 units.
