@john-folan Hard times at the moment but we just need to plough on!

No hit. Just the one today. It's in a class 2 race
Beaten by a neck but still didn’t trade low enough to convert

Today's. Only the one. Probably will be outside the odds too. Up to date revised spreadsheet attached

Spent the morning sorting these out. I hate losing money and I was pretty sure I knew what the problem was.
I have added a class filter. 0's are Irish races, generally handicaps. They don't have the same class system as over here. Other than that it is pretty obvious that top class racing is a no no. At some point I will update the sheet to reflect this.
Group 1's 2's and 3's are the split for Class 1 Handicaps. Group 3's obviously closer to class 2's.It actually makes sense that the best races are difficult to make money on.
The best races attract the most money so it's where the bookies need to be most precise. Just like in football where it's very difficult to find any value in the match odds markets for the best leagues like Premier League, La Liga, etc. The bookies have way too much information and have to be extremely good at making sure the odds are precise as they will lose a lot of money if they fail.
Although TROB'ing is a bit different than outright betting, the start odds still reflect pretty precisely the actual chance of a horse winning and this will correlate with how much you can expect a horse to over-perform in the given race.
Pretty much nailed on my thought process. That explanation makes perfect sense. I will be avoiding anything decent from now on. The group threes could just be closer to class 2’s than ones.
Agree on the trobbing. The horse will have to run relatively close to trob. Looking for an over reaction like there generally is in football when a goal is scored.
I will stick the revised spreadsheet up later when I do the trobs. Matey hasn’t added Tipperary yet so I am holding off until he does.

Proform have a 50% discount available u TIL Thursday If anyone is interested. I’m holding out for the BTC software myself. Proform is decent tho and the entertainment you get when Simon throws his toys out of the pram whenever anyone disagrees with him is probably worth the sub money alone. Blokes got permanent PMT.
On a separate note with the Trobs there has been a lot of Class One Races lately. Trading normally struggles with those generally so it more than likely explains the downturn.

Utter mess today. The group one and twos have killed it this week. No selections tomorrow
-
Horrible Day.
-
And the poor run continues

Poor since the start of September. it will turn though
