Yeah mate, like you've made reference to before, fight the urge to react when things aren't going exactly as planned.
It’s like you have a devil and an angel on each shoulder. “CHANGE IT”. “NO LEAVE IT”
So true!

I do love picking winners...especially when I've been laying them!
Bit of a turnaround since then I hope!

Flat pace backs seem to be warming up nicely

Interesting looking at various strategies. 2021 was a mess for a lot of racing because of Covid restrictions. Starting to think I might write that year off as not reliable stats wise. Some strategies that were good that year have slowly gone downhill. Some I have discarded because that year was bad. I need to do a little thinking about this.

Seems to have reset for May anyway. Might have to start keeping a record before it resets at the start of each month.
The tipsters on this table are now only 6 pts down.

@arran-shackell it didn't used to reset that often, is that definite? As yeah it does hamper. You could of course keep a record of it before month end on a sheet to tally it all up

Been trading the football here for a few months now and looking at horse racing. Very much still exploring the horses side.
Lay the losing tipster - does anyone actively do this?
I've noticed the sporting life tipster league tables reset at the start of each month. This may seem like a silly question but how are you then supposed to apply the stratergy with so little data to work off?

@john-folan According to all the backtests we are at the start of the season of plenty. 'Should' have 4 months or so of optimal performance ('should').
Should being the word

Hey guys I have been using the software to get selections of the 3 strategies I follow and today noticed that there is odd one different to the email does anyone know why this happening? Thanks andy !
!A non runner has probably changed a race so a horse that didn’t fit before did. Or vice versa. Selections can and do change all day.

Wow, good month. Running my variations of:
Back C&D winner
Flat Pace backs
Lay Beaten Fav
Low Lays
and my own Laying not won C or D between 3 and 7its given a profit of 122 points at flat stakes for the month. Only one strategy (Back C&D winner on Turf) was an overal negative, and that was only minus 1.3 points.
Unfortunately since i was dicking around at the start of the mointh i never captured all of that but i have doubled my account this month so i would be a bit of an arse to complain.
Yep last month was mental overall profit wise. Very happy.
