Another winner with ADRIENNE doing far more than was necessary to bring home a 3.8 pts profit for the system bet.
It was quite a strange market around 9.00 am this morning as the selection was 6/1 (4/19 for 8 places) when I placed the bet, but contracted to 13/8 (1/16 for 8 places) within half an hour, albeit there was a relative outsider declared a non runner during the period.
Hi Rob
Nice recovery from the second post curse…lol. I would have had kittens putting 20 points on a single horse for a thread but I guess (hopefully) it’s onward and upwards from now. ?
Totally understand your nervousness in respect of the aggressive staking for this system, albeit 20 pts is only just over 10% of the current bank.
However, I have been trialing the system for over 6 months, after which I am fairly confident that I can achieve a strike rate of around 90%.
With such a high strike rate, the maths suggest that I am running a fairly low risk of suffering a catastrophic run of losers – obviously strange things can happen and I may crash and burn at some time in the future, but as the bank increases I am increasing both my stakes and also setting aside a larger contingency fund to protect against such catastrophe.
Although today’s selection POETRY OF TIME probably performed below expectations, his fourth place finish was sufficient to provide the system with a profit of 0.7 pts.
There were no selections today, so I thought I should provide a brief update on how the system has performed since the thread started, as it can be confusing due to the high strike rate and the variable staking plan.
Total Stakes: 95 pts – Total Returns: 99 pts – Profit: 4 pts – Return On Investment 4.2%
The system has therefore achieved the first stated aim to produce around a 90% strike rate, but has fallen short of the ROI target of 10%, albeit at least it has produced a profit in the first week and to be fair a sample size of 10 bets is rather low to be drawing too many conclusions.
Hopefully, there will be some selections tomorrow.
