@richard-latimer Didnt really notice field size mate but having said that I feel it would be wise to see how their markets trade first ie how quickly monies trade but more importantly how much monies are traded inplay... Will be keeping an eye on it and run both meetings in simulation mode

Ok who's going to try this out at Longchamp tomorrow? Do we have a max race size? Most U.S. races are small fields but a couple of these French ones are quite large.

21:06 looks good

More evidence that 2.04 MAY be the way to go. 1 matched @ 2.02. Another horses traded @ 2.04 for over £100.00.

@richard-latimer Fingers x , testing slightly different ways is good as we will find the best method eventually. Off to Aldi's now can't wait speak in a while

@alan-steward Ok that's what I thought . Get on with your dinner mate you will be in trouble

I am trialling laying the field less short priced fav when it goes under 4.0 though. If the fav bolts you lose nothing and it if matches but loses you gain at least a point. If 3 others match you also win a point.

james everard

@richard-latimer Ok cheers mate thought so, no point diverting away from the rules

@richard-latimer Fair enough just trying to work different angles. So if 2 get matched at 2.04 and one goes onto win we make nothing so we are needing 3 matched to make a profit.
What are you thoughts on the next race or do you think it doesn't meet the criteria as just over a mile?

I'm not doing it. Our records are for 6f to 1m.

@james-everard Personally I dont think you'll make money with only two matching. How I see it is about scratching as much as poss with 2 @ 1.98/2.04 and look for the 3rd for profits... That's my opinion anyway... Let's see how the numbers go

2 matched in the last... Pretty much scratch

Same here. A third matched @ 2.10 but not sure how much was traded.

Or the other way we can look at is trying to get 3 matched at under 2.3 what do you think mate?

Too high in my opinion. 2.0 and around that mark appears to be quite common. 2.3 and you're bnot getting many more in the net but your handing back alot of the profit and liability is higher so that you're never really scratching.

@james-everard said in The BTC Horse Racing Thread:

2.04 you have to have three matched to make money how often does that happen?
I am thinking maybe just under 1.8 , at least if two get matched we make a profit what do you think?

Well in the last 4 daysn it's happened 5 times so far and only once has it failed to match as many as 2.
