Racing Secrets Exposed (eBook) – Day 1
Hello constables,
I’ve sat on this for a while but the time has come for me to get stuck into this.
I said I was going to have a go at picking horses to lay using the information in the Racing Secrets Exposed eBook. I spent a few days on it in July but need to do a few more days so I have a week’s worth of data to analyse. I intend to spend 4 days proofing selections in advance. This will be from today (Tuesday) to Friday and then I will write a review of the book.
I picked some lay selections over the tail end of July and this is how I got on :
| Date | Time | Course | Selection | BFSP (Lay) | Low lay price | Position | Profit |
| 27/07/2010 | 06:40 | Perth | Symphonica | 2.3 | 1.61 | 2nd/8 | 0.95 |
| 28/07/2010 | 06:10 | Leicester | Grandma’s Dream | 2.84 | 2.3 | 4th | 0.95 |
| 28/07/2010 | 07:15 | Leicester | Atkia | 2.16 | 1.91 | 3rd | 0.95 |
| 28/07/2010 | 03:30 | Perth | Picaroon | 2.26 | 1.11 | 2nd | 0.95 |
| 28/07/2010 | 05:15 | Perth | Supercede | 2.08 | 1.11 | 2nd | 0.95 |
| 28/07/2010 | 08:35 | Sandown | Tuscan Gold | 2.12 | 1.01 | 1st | -1.12 |
| 30/07/2010 | 05:30 | Bangor | Lords Bridge | 2.1 | 1.15 | 7th/10 | 0.95 |
This was betting on selections that went off at BFSP of less than 3.0. I managed to find 6 horses that lost but did also find a winner in Tuscan Gold (Astral Flower, what happened to you?!).
I managed to finish 4.58 pts up as a result.
However, publishing results after the horse has bolted is a bit pointless – I could tell you I layed 1000’s of horses and am now a millionaire, but it doesn’t mean it happened! Whilst I am 100% genuine with the above, I need to proof selections in advance.
So here goes, we’ll have a 50 pt bank and lay each selection at 1 pt on Betfair, therefore hoping to win 0.95 pts after commission for a successful lay.
The only rule I have is that the BFSP must be lower than 3.0 – even when paper trading I like to limit liability 🙂
