Laying horses at short odds is ridiculous. Can’t believe how many just don’t perform. The short odds strategy I posted last month has been mental. Martin’s doing well too. I’d be on that if I didn’t have one

Odds on horses are relatively equal over 5 years of data.

Less than 2.0

Less than 1.5

The 1.8 to 2.4 range is a good hunting ground with a few other conditions ;). I’ve done them selecting them myself for years and always done well. Nice to have settled on something that’s a system and can be botted.

I’m testing one also which is doing equally as well

Todays with the usual paremeters

Trobs

Slow Horses

[John Folan]

Nothing matched yesterday on trobs. Slow horses made a point.

Trobs: Dob, Trob or straight win anything between 3.5-9 near the off

Slow Horses: Dob anything 5 and over near the off

Just research that price range. I'd say it is just a one of those quirks that happens with results now and again, and if it was run over 5 years of data, it would vanish.

Wonder if it’s to do with resistance points for the exit.

Seeing something that is coming up quite a lot looking at dobbing or trobbing strategies. It's a bit of an anomaly but it's happening in my dr trobs as well. The 6.0-6.99 odds range is atrocious. Even if 3.5-5.99 and 7.0 and above is great. This is rearing it's head a lot so it must be a thing. Damned if I can work out why. Any thoughts?

I've seen this with a few systems where price ranges in between others are an anomaly. I can't seem to explain why either!
I remember @Keith-Driscoll saying that there needs to be a reason to disqualify certain parameters.

He’s right there is. I’m not discounting them yet. Just going to keep an eye.

Hard to say why but if it's consistently bad worth keeping an eye on

Gutted about Lester Piggot. A true legend among jockeys.

I was very unlucky with one failing to trob just. Slow horses was good though. Looking at the Zero Paced Lays they would have been storming yesterday. Deffo starting those on the 1st of June. Here are todays:

Trobs: 3.5-9 Odds Range. Dob Trob or Win. Take your pick.

Slow Horses. Dob any over 5.0. My BSP bot is going well on this so I will be able to use it on Zero Paced Lays as well with an adjustment on the odds lowest entry point.

[John Folan]

Nothing matched yesterday. Couple to go at today

Trobs 3.5-9 odds range only

Slow Horses. Dob any over 5.0

@wayne-ironside if you're stuck, message me and I can email the strategy file unless @Martin can get that file type added to the allowable file types to upload?

@Adam can you sort this please

Hi Wayne
I don't have permission to upload a Fairbot strategy file (.fs) but here's an example of a DOB set up within Fairbot. I've allowed for up to 4 horses to be selected in a race. Minimum price of 5, take BSP and trade out for 1 point profit.
Let me know if any questions
Cheers
Kevin

thanks, i'll see if I can copy it. I have been able to make football ones but never horse racing ones.
