13th August 2008

This weather is not good for the racing and where we would normally expect going to be very good many courses are showing good to soft. Flat runners are not really trained for soft running so it always upsets results.

I have said before that using AW racing may be a good place to start for a system and I was looking at Adrian Massey's site again for some inspiration.
http://www.adrianmassey.com/fav/index.php

One area that is interesting is Maiden races where the favourites win almost 40% of the time. The problem will be the odds where they are likely to be below 2/1 and more often than not "odds on", but maybe with a bit of research and testing you may find something worth following, back or lay wise.

Just by playing around with Adrian's database I manage to get to a strike rate of 47% and in some cases you could make over the 100% return although this would cut your selections down to a small amount over a year.

I actually know a few people who have lots of little systems where they have found little niches where they can make long term profit.

Lay/Back System Test ("Started 23/07/2008")

There are two types of selections here. The first is a lay tip as long as the price is under 2.00 and the second is a back tip as long as the price is 2.00 or above.

There is one thing to think about here. If a lay selection goes to 2.00 or above you could decide to back it instead and the same goes for a back selection dropping below 2.00 you could then lay this. It's probably best to back/lay these near to the "off". We are not using a staking plan at the moment, just level stakes to see what happens.

If you want you can download the selections (Mon to Fri) directly into GHB using the session/server tips option. The URL is here.
http://www.greyhorsebot.co.uk/session4.xml

The session file is set as lay, odds between 1.03 and 1.99 and 1.00 stake, and back odds 2.00 to 5.00, 1.00 stake but you should use your own option settings.

I will also upload a spreadsheet once a week with the latest results here.

Please Note: I do not keep records of this tip, I just want to show readers how good it can be but part of learning should be to watch what a selection does daily.

Back test system ( "A 'back' system that I came up with a while ago")

This system is available as part of The Pro Betting Systems e-book.
http://www.horseracingsystemsuk.com/go_pbs.htm

As a new idea I am going to start a more aggressive staking plan trial and stick more closely to the CashMaster idea.

Please Note: This is a trial. Please do not attempt to run a staking plan unless you understand exactly what you are getting yourself into.

New Trial Started 21/07/2008.
Start Bank £500.00
Bank Now: £0.00
We will use 5% of our current bank as our base stake (divided by the odds we get) and we will use the CashMaster system to get back loses except when the selections price at betfair is under 2.00. All winnings will be calculated -5% betfair charge. If a runner is under 2.00 and we are recovering loses then we prospone the staking plan and stake the whole 5% stake.

Yesterday. (Loss amount so far 500.00).
18:55, Nott, Tasheba, EP 2.10 (stake 238.00) 3rd 4/7 This is all or nothing today. It would probably be sensible to stop staking and try reverting back again to level stakes, but this is a test of an aggresive staking plan so we may as well have a laugh!

Today. Yesterday goes to show how badly an agressive staking plan can hurt if it all goes wrong. I am going to have a little think about what to do from now on.

Remember this is just a test and we are paper testing "backing" these selections.
