15% of winners are below $4.
That leaves 4% above $20.
Good luck finding them every week.

What do you have a problem with Quapi?

People making some challenging statements or are you just sticking up for your OZmium collegue EI? Can't he defend himself with wit and intelligent comments, without you deleting anything that's not politically correct?

Now, there's nothing in that, which is unpleasant - unless you find criticism of any kind - unpleasant?

Me wonders, whether you know as much about punting as you make out - you reckon I don't know much. Well I would admit if I was struggling on the punt, rather than making excuses and saying - I'll win in the long term, cause I'm investing for the long haul.

Aiming for 4% of winners is not a winning strategy - bread and butter should be the $4-12 winners, the $20+ winners are icing on the cake.

I would not be suprised if this is deleted as well - if it is, it shows you have no credibility.

Anyone who is any good at anything, can handle constructive criticism, unless of course they are insecure about their own knowledge.

That's the point trend, you don't have to find them every week. There are daily punters and longterm punters.



Let it be known, I have no connection to Ozmium or Quapi whatsoever, however, I do contribute to these forums on a daily basis. The community is fantastic and Quapi is trying to keep it a place to learn and intelligently discuss various aspects of horseracing.



Trend, I never said you didn't know much about the punt. However, when someone criticises my selections without knowing the investment plan behind it, surely I am entitled to defend myself.
Investing for the longterm is not an excuse -it was an explanation of my objective.



The 10/1+ winners are where the profits lay.

"80% of my profit comes from 20% of my winners"
Pareto.



I am not out to prove anything, it's all about sharing ideas and learning something new off other members. CONSTRUCTIVE criticism is always welcome, and I try and share some of my knowledge with others.

1. There is absolutely no association whatsoever between EI (Equine Investor) and OZmium.
