@john-folan looking at creating a set and forget project for horse racing as well, what are your thoughts on that?

I'm thinking some lay or back BSP outright systems would be good. I wonder what stats lead to horses being undervalued or overvalued?

[Martin]

@john-folan lol

Never matched. No trading for me today. Power is up and down faster than Prince Andrew’s pants. Not worth the risk.

[John Folan]

Nothing matched yesterday. Here is todays potential. Too low for me to get involved currently

[John Folan]

Todays. Currently trading inside the Goldilocks zone

[John Folan]

Annoyingly the two longer odds both would have at least dobbed. Nothing today

[John Folan]

Three today. Only one looking like it will hit 3.5-9. Which probably means the two that dont have a storming run

I wonder if your levels go down if you post a losing trade ;).

Anyway. One today, currently in the 3.5-9 odds range. Competitive race tho. Should be interesting.

Horse pulled up. Can’t do much about that. Horse injured but should be ok.

Annoyingly yesterdays would have traded lovely but drifted like a barge before the off. I am going to take a serious look at stripping out a couple of filters when the software is ready. Trading all Irish and groups 3 and 4 handicaps will probably mean we can get rid of the upper odds filters and the OR requirement, maybe some of the racetypes as well.

Nothing today.

[John Folan]

Yesterday was useless. Today's is currently operating just outside the 3.5-9 odds filters

An actual selection. Will only get involved if between 3.5-9 just before the off. Well I won't my bot will. #lazy

#lazy should have been the name of the horse

Still nothing. This jumps season has been atrocious for selection numbers.

[John Folan]

Still no trobs. Been really poor racing this week

Many thanks.

Chelmsford was probably to blame for the lack of traction last night. It’s a shithole. The Southwell one did well. Keep at it

[A Former User]

Many thanks.

[John Folan]

@andrew-camp they all look alright pace wise. Their recent inrunning form isn’t great (last 10 races) and I would want that to have a higher percentage of dobs and trobs.

That said they will probably all smash home now as faster paced horses seem to do alright on the aw

Been playing around with looking for horses who have decent pace stats and who might produce decent chances of dobbing in-running. I'm new to this so don't follow blindly but here are four I have shortlisted for today and was wondering what people more knowledgeable than me thought:

Southwell 2.00pm: Brazen Arrow
Chelmsford 5.30pm: Dors Toyboy
Chelmsford 6.00pm: Marnie James
Chelmsford 7.00pm: Debit Card

Gimme an hour and I’ll come back. I’m Dobby the House Elf at the moment
