@john-folan how are your bots performing in general

The one for the trobs works apart from the going filter. Its ok if it’s heavy first thing in the morning but if it turns heavy during the morning/afternoon then I’ve had it. So that’s a deffo manual check.

I’ve got two other bots that are profitable although less so since the sports shut down in March. They rely on late money and I didn’t realise how much came from crowds at the courses. They should improve as that improves. But god knows when that will be.

I’ve junked everything else. Too unreliable. Got rid of laypro88 as the swings were giving me heart failure. The temptation on Bfbot to add recovery methods is immense. But every time I’ve tried one they just freak me out so I won’t ever use one of them again.

Still haven’t managed to get a good scalping bot working. Really need to get to grips with that. But I make my wedge by manual scalping so don’t really want to mess that up.

@john-folan how are your bots performing in general

Just checking ad the last two losers the ground had turned heavy so got caught out as bfbot had them as soft and i was too busy to check. As always check the previous result at that course to make sure it isnt heavy. Bots unreliable for that at the moment. 3.5-9 odds range as usual

John Folan

Two points lost sadly. No racing now till Boxing Day. Convinced the travel restrictions between tiers are having an effect.

We shall see. Anyway I shall return Boxing Day.

Merry Christmas

John Folan

Shock horror two selections. 3.5-9 odds range and no heavy ground

John Folan

Sorry for the late post, it's all kicking off here thanks to f*****g track and trace. Anyway, nothing today. Tomorrow is the last day of racing until Boxing day.

John Folan

Two selections. Outside the 3.5-9 odds range currently. Avoid if the ground turns heavy

John Folan

Seriously what is going on?

None today

John Folan

None tomorrow!!!

Surprise surprise nothing today. I'll stop back in when there are selections. Might want to try laying some short odds favourites though. The ground is awful.

good idea, is that a strategy you do regularly with success?

You know me Martin. Always loved a favourite lay. The ground is awful so it’s throwing up a lot of surprises

interesting, how did it go?
3/3 so pretty good

what prices do you go for in general on these? fantastic results!

Under 3.0 preferably closer to 2.0. Shocking priced horses at the moment. One yesterday. Odds on fave. Never won a race and came nowhere.
