Hi Chris Potterton

I’m really intrigued by your strategy/system. Is there any possibility of you setting it out a little more succinctly in the successful strategies forum page as I’m not quite getting it and what stakes you are using for each system?

Thanks Phil

Chuffed to hear that Rob. I miss your posts and invaluable tips.

Where are Simon and co today?

Sorry to hear that. You may want to try paper betting first to find the best strategy for you and to get a decent feel of good/bad days, or try one of the successful strategies I’ve posted.
Are you setting yourself realistic profit stop and loss stop targets relative to your betting bank or just going for it?
Although there can be really bad days, Id say the last 3 days have been pretty profitable if played strategically/correctly, so I’m terribly sorry to hear of your losses.
Good luck

Hi Chris
I’ve been a member since the end of May and have kept stats for the periods where I’ve bet, paper or for real, so that could be a mornings racing and/or an evening or just 90 mins or until I’ve hit a profit.

I’d agree with Matt. That’s a risky strategy and there have been regular periods where a first rated hasn’t won for 11ish races and even more if you carry forward to the evening/morning, so I’d be careful. Id say you’ve been pretty lucky there so you may be best to have a look at the strategy I posted to minimise your losses, but entirely up to you.

Best of luck either way.

Hi Ben,
Chris’ advice is very wise, but if you do want to try something else and I recommend you paper trial these first ie do t place physical bets, I’ve just posted a couple of successful strategies in one of the other forums which are based on my mistakes!!!
Good luck

So the other strategy I’ve employed is to each on the first rated horses.

My daily profit target is 1.5% of my betting bank and my stake is 2% of my bank.

Again, using a £1000 bank as an example, I start and place £10 each way on the first rated horse. If the horse wins, subject to the above I stop.

If it gets placed, I use the same stake as the last race, increasing by £1 each way if it loses, going to a maximum of 4 straight losses before I restart at the initial bet eg £10, 11, 12, 13, 10.

Sometimes you sense bad days when very few winners come in, in which case I’d say if you have 5 straight losses, hang up your boots for the day and go again the next.

That said, it’s very rare for Matt to have 5 straight unplaced horses, although NB on big meeting like Royal Ascot where there are 15 plus runners you may be best to Dutch or adopt Richard’s (Levett’s) strategy.

This is just an idea. You have to find the right strategy for you!

Good luck.

Ok, so I’ve been trying and testing the 90 minute strategy for the past few months now, as well as my own strategy and these ratings really can work for you. You just have to remember, you WILL have losing days, set a realistic daily profit level/loss level for you, don’t be greedy and stay disciplined.

With the 90 minute strategy I’ve found that you need at least a £1000 bank for a starting stake of £10. Have a stop profit figure. I’ve found somewhere between £30-60 is great. Alternatively, stop at a profit but adopt the below for bad days.

Increase by one point (ie £10) after each loss, ie £10, 20, 30 etc but you MUST have a stop loss to ensure discipline and to resist heavy losses, so I restart after 4 straight losses ie £40 on the last bet and stop altogether after 5 straight losses. Yes, you’ll see days when the next horse romps in at 9/1 (and yes that has happened to me by the way!) but resist the temptation to keep going otherwise you will end up being the loser. Remember Matt produces ratings, but he’s not a miracle man.

The other thing I’d add, is that if you miss a race, stop, even if you’re suffering a slight loss, and don’t try to chase profit. There WILL be other days. I’ve found that it goes horribly wrong when you don’t do this.

I will separately post my other strategy which has had fantastic results.

Good luck.

Hi Mark that’s interesting. What is that website called as I’m interested in getting into the analysis side more and like you I’m a total novice. Either that or I’ll gladly email you if you pass on details. Thanks Phil

[Pippin]

Simon, awesome shout on that Lucky63 yesterday. Thanks for sharing. Phil

[Pippin]

GET IN!! Hope you were all over it Jason ?

[Pippin]

Morning Jason. Funnily enough I had exactly the same thought. Further, I received a tip which supports this, so surely worth an EW?! Good luck and be sure to share with us any info coming from the track ?

[Pippin]

Hi Robert

I’m confused. Are presenting arms and master paver replacing two others.

Cheers

Christopher Ellis & Richard Levett

Great calls yesterday with your tips. Have you got anything for today?

Thank you for that and any other great tips like that, please continue to share.

What would you use as a stop loss using £10 per point stakes? Any advice is warmly received.

Thanks
Phil B

Hi Richard

I’m sorry but I’m still not totally clear on this dutching or placing 3 bets. If one point equals £10 do you bet 10, 10, 10 and if one or more horses happen to be 5/1 or 6.0 or more 20 (ie 10 EW), or should you Dutch bet which of course generates poorer returns?

Thanks for your help.

Phil
