@jonathan-jones Yes, this is definitely in the pipeline. I'd like to be able to offer a few different methods of notifying people - email, desktop notification, automatic export to Google Sheets. The latter would allow you to integrate with other things pretty effectively via Zapier, Integromat etc.

@jonathan-jones problem with this is we have to download all your strategies and send an individual email, I think it's most likely best just to log in and download selections each day, doesn't take much effort really does it?

Is there currently any way we can have the 'upcoming qualifiers' list (the strategies we have selected as active) emailed automatically? If not do you think its a possible feature we could have at some point? I have a plan to eventually fully automate the simple set and forget ones i use.

These did alright yesterday and last month in general. Trobs still look the best value.

Classic Trobs: Dob/Trob or win any between 3.5-9. Avoid heavy ground.

Have you managed to get this Strategy into the horse software yet John, or is the only way to follow your trobs by seeing your post here each day?

I can’t get the selections to match exactly for some reason. It’s on my todo list to sort out in the next few days. I think I know why. Want it sorted before the full jumps season starts. I’ll tag you in when it’s sorted

I think my automation criteria are not using a similar pattern to the backtest. In my automation i use lay price < value but i have a feeling the backtester uses LTP < value. Would that be correct? I can easily change my automation if thats the case.

Yeah we use the LTP so that it's based on actual prices traded rather than what people in the market "want" to get matched.

Nothing today

I am getting the odd horse skipped on a bet in live that on backtest and i think i know why. I am sure someone here will know if my theory is correct.

Just posting Classic Trobs here from now on. I think everyone has the software now. Flat Pace is running just under it's lowest strike rate for a month anyway and is probably best left alone (although I am still staking them).

[John Folan]

Classic Trobs: Dob, Trob or Win 3.5-9 odds range. Avoid Heavy Ground.

Flat Pace: Back to Win 2-25 odds range. 4-14 runners only. Avoid Heavy, Firm and Soft going. The awful run continues

Slow Horses: Dob any over 6.0
None Today
