Another two horses died at Southwell’s jump meeting tonight. Jump racing suspended at Southwell until further notice.

Good. This needs sorting. No animal needs to die for sport.

It's more commonplace than it should be in racing though isn't it? What happened today?

Two died in the first two races. That’s on top of the six that have died since racing resumed. I haven’t watched the races yet as it will probably make me a bit sick. Horrible.

Was it an avoidable occurrence then?

It must be. It’s not happening elsewhere. I’m going to have a dig without watching the races.

Could be the fences. They aren’t fixed they are mobile French style brush.

They are up. As usual, no heavy ground and 3.5-9 odds range. Make sure you check the going, lot of rain around in various places at the moment.

[John Folan]

Point to the good. Can’t do tomorrow’s yet as the Irish races weren’t available. Will post when they are.

[John Folan]

Tomorrows. Annoyingly today's didn't convert.

@john-folan could be a good sign getting same selections. i have noticed this on some football filters the good ones often throw up the same games!

Not a bad point. Like a confirmation. I’m still going to look and make sure it’s profitable without the same trades. (Curiosity). But I get your point. They scream trade me if they show up a couple of times.

The idea behind the new one is I’m ignoring dob rate and looking at the average ticks a horse drops in running. Then any with 80 or more I’m applying the 80-120 OR filter and a 10% win rate. The last one is a bit pointless as it’s rare I have to filter any out lower. I’m looking forward to the horse software as from what I’ve seen from the football I’ll be able to apply the filters in the software rather than excel.

Speaking of that - @Martin-Futter When is the horse racing software coming?

@adam-williams is working hard as we speak will get an update tomorrow but it's coming along (so hard to put a date on software development)

Need to crack the whip a bit lol

@john-folan great point, I was thinking about a strategy where you just look at multiple ones and see which selections pop up mulitple times as you assume they would be super strong.

That’s a decent idea that. What I’ll do then is separate out the ATD’s. And look at those that appear on both and those that don’t and see what the p and l is.

That said had a finnish game pop up on a few yesterday and it was 0-1 so guess it needs work!
