    Hi Graham, I use Matts ratings (TPS) 1 and 2, also 3 if there is one, and Richards Irish and Sunday ratings, again if there are three, use all three. I know many say that it is not statistically worth doing less than eight runners, but I do, because I started that way, because often the outsider in a small field wins and I have had winners up to 16/1 from these races. My bank has never looked like being demolished though it has slipped back to even (and once a few pence below the £100). As Richard says the key is persistance, the day you miss is the day we get multiple double figure winners!

    Elisabeth, so sorry to hear about your misfortune. I think I used to do my money in one go following a losing method, and worse I would then chase losses, but the biggest thing I ever learnt was how to lose. You will always encounter loses, they may run over days and even weeks, and if you dont learn to accept this and deal with it, then your fate is sealed. This is how I deal with it. Having lost small fortune trying to recoup loses by upping the stakes or backing horses I shouldn’t have, I sat down and started to read what other people did and came to the conclusion that losing was a big part of the game for pro punters, and the way to over come it was discipline and bank management, so sticking to a proven strategy, and splitting my bank to cover losing runs. I now work to a small portfolio of strategys as folows
    7/20 Starting bank was £100 (now £1327)
    Larrys method starting bank was £600 (to work at £5 units allowing for a possible 8 day losing streak, but in fact over 3 weeks I have only had one losing day, and that was through my mistake, so I am now using £10 unit)
    My own method that is based on the Racing Post betting forecast and Matts ratings, the selections are posted and the method will be too soon starting bank £500 to £10 win singles – although I have only just started posting theese I have been using them for 3 months and the bank is now £1434.
    I also use the 4/1 plus method when I can, this is very profitable, but you have to be prepared to take some real nasty hits!
    I did join the NAP service and have 14 credits left, I have written them off and havn’t backed a NAP for over 6 months. Use methods that are on the forum and proven – Carl for instance provides a wealth of opportunity and his picks can provide a spring board to success – and start with small manageable banks/stakes, take your time and increase slowly as your banks grow. Any way you go, good luck.

    Hi William, there are a number of ways to profit from the ratings, the best advice is to trawl through the forum and settle on a small portfollio of strategies that suit you, stick to your banks and persevere.

    7/20 Yet another profitable day yesterday, without being spectacular, turned in over 4 pts profit (for me at the prices I got).

    Cheers for clearing that up Larry, I understand now, though if you were able to post your list I am sure there most be a large number of people who are following your method that would be grateful, including me. And if you arn’t following Larry’s method, you must already be loaded!
