Today's Selections.
Classic Trobs: Dob, Trob or Win if odds are between 3.5-9

Flat Pace. Back to Win if between 2.0-25.0. 4-14 Runners only. Avoid Soft, Heavy and Firm Going

Slow Horses. Dob any over 6.0 as close to the off as possible

June Summary.

Classic Trobs. Pretty flat really. Copy of June's results included with today's selection in the next post but were Dobs -4. Trobs -1 and Win +1.

Short Odds Lays. 13 points profit. Nice :). Despite a couple of losing streaks, these are ticking along.

Flat Pace. 30 points profit. Can have quite long losing runs but recovers quickly

Slow Horses. 1 point profit. Mirrors last June. Nothing out of the ordinary for these so happily continuing.

Zero Paced Dobs. 1 point profit. I am binning these. They are fine at low stakes(up to £10). But there is no real upscaling as you struggle to get larger amounts matched especially inrunning. A nice experiment though and helped me find that out to bare in mind for future strategies.

The most encouraging thing is my bots are getting virtually identical results to the software. Very very happy.

Today's. I'll do an end of month update tomorrow on my strategies.

Classic Trobs: Dob, Trob or Win if odds are between 3.5-9

Flat Pace. Back to Win if between 2.0-25.0. 4-14 Runners only. Avoid Soft, Heavy and Firm Going

Slow Horses. Dob any over 6.0 as close to the off as possible

Zero Paced Dobs. Dob any over 20.0 as close to the off as possible. Go careful here as I'm not sure about getting matched at larger stakes. I'm on a compound increase and will stop increasing once they get to a level where it is a problem.

@martin Ok thanks, ill maybe run them both for a while and see if there are differences, and if so try to work out why

Today's selections. Trialling a few new strategies as well(monitoring going forwards). All a little different, which is good.

Only the flat pace let it down today. One point loss there. Still 40 points up this month. Everything else traded or won.

@lee-woodman if it is a strategy that chooses a horse based on a criteria that can't change (for example lay last time winner) then it does it a day in advance so you could run it anytime the day before

[A Former User]

@martin I’ve got a few back strategies and a lay one, nothing too dissimilar to what’s on the presets

I just know you can’t really run the football selections the night before if using odds and wondered how reliable the horse selections would be the night before

[Martin]

@lee-woodman which strategy is this for?

[A Former User]

When is the daily qualifiers list updated enough to be accurately used for selections? I have been running it in the morning but would prefer the night before if possible

@jonathan-jones We can look at including relative staking to enable this.

Can you submit a request via the support button with a quick example of how you personally would set up the staking for this type of trade? I'll see what we can do

[A Former User]

@Adam
For the dutching how would i do the staking? Normally when you dutch you use relative staking, i can see how to do that which means its not really a dutch as most people would describe it as one selection win wouldnt always cover your other selections losses.

[Adam]

@jonathan-jones We are planning to add the place markets in future.

Anything specific you think is missing for dutching? Dutching is just backing multiple selections per market, which is totally possible now.

[A Former User]

Can i make some suggestions for the Horse Racing Software?
Thinking the addition of a Dutching function and the place/EW markets would really help with lower variance profitable systems. At the moment its pretty much either all or nothing or basic variations on back to lay/lay to back.

Is the horse software offline? I cant get mine to load anything?
Ive just submitted a support ticket

It was off from midday, until about 7pm.

It definitely wasn't! What symptoms were you seeing during that time?

EDIT: Never mind, I've seen your support ticket.
