@john-folan Hi John, I am new to horse race trading and have seen your post so thought I would have a go, this was the first time I have followed your system. Even though I failed on one, I was happy with the outcome because by just following your DOB, I cold see how it was suppose to track. One question, I backed Full Throttle at 9, then drifted out to 15... So I laid at 5 and made my money. What time would be the best to back? Just before the race starts so you that you know the final back odds or like I did, about 30 mins before the race and hope that it doesn't drift. Best Regards. Mark

I have my bot set up to back at 5 seconds before the off. You could probably get better results backing further out like you did. Traders tend to mes with prices in the 15-20 minutes before the off and if a horse looks like it should run well which based on previous form these should you can probably get yourself a better price and be halfway to a dob or trob before the race starts. I’ve not really experimented that far out with these as I am usually scalping the markets then getting out before any of my automation starts.

Let the fun begin. 3.5-9 odds range. There is a group 3 race in there, but they are profitable so on we go.

Annoying as the two outside the odds ranges would have trobbed beautifully, long term i know outside the range is crap but it still irritates me. They were both on the flat as well so it does bode well. One more today. Jumps again sadly but we shall see how they go. I've signed up to racing bet data to give me something to do while i wait for the horse software on here. Hopefully when I shake that tree something will fall out.

No match.

Nothing again today. Still a lot of selections that haven't run in the last 90 days, that will change soon
