Hi guys,thought it best to take Betty Boops advice and kick in a new thread.Big Louie,can you post your figures for all races and all days,and also without applying the priceline filter?When I posted the original rules,I intended it as a Saturday system only,however there have been many good priced winners during the week,so I don't think it should be restricted to Sat.only.I still prefer it in it's raw form,even though the facts and figures experts(of which I am Not one!)say it will not stack up long term.I tried using some filters early on,but found I was eliminating winners here and there.If you were incorporating the priceline filter suggested by Big Louie,you would have eliminated some good priced winners,Riva Rebel at 18.70/4.60 comes to mind,and there would be others.There are two filters I have been giving thought too,that is;
1.Restricting the distance range to 1600 metres.
2.Drawn no wider than barrier 8.
The logic behind the distance range is obvious,it gets harder for any horse to carry a big weight the further it has to carry same.The barrier draw I guess explains itself too.Given that we are always on the topweight,we don't want it to expend any extra energy trying to get across from a wide gate.Also as this system seems to throw up a lot of placegetters,I am using a 2x8 staking method.Any placegetter @1.25 is break even,anything above that figure is a profit.Just to clarify the distance range,that is up to and including 1600 metres.Any thoughts on this?Big Louie and or Becareful,any figures you can come up with using these filters would be greatly appreciated.Cheers
