Today's. As usual the 3.5-9 odds apply.

First one trades and converts. Nothing else looks like it will be in range for the rest of the day.

... which means tomorrow will start at 100 points plus.

I’m pretty chuffed with that. I reckon trobs would be about 120-130 points if not for Covid as we lost virtually 3 months racing and the win probably 150 plus. Not bad at all.

When did you start this (i.e., when is the first recorded race in your sheet)?

August 2019. I’ll stick the full sheet up tomorrow

@john-folan just checking, have you requested the stuff you need from that tool for the horse racing software on here? be good to save you a few bob!

Yes matey. You, Adam and Ryan did a nice wishlist thread for it a while back. I'll do a quick check on it to see if there is anything else we might need though. Really looking forward to the new software now

Hi Shaun and welcome to the forum. Hopefully I’ve answered your questions below. Please let me know if you have anymore.

Hi John,
This is my first day in BTC so apologies in advance for some of the noddy questions! I've done my best to scour the thread to gather as much knowledge on your TROBS strategy as possible, so hopefully most of this is just reconfirming what i understand to be the case. Firstly, you have a great strategy and to soon hit 100 points in the timeframe you have is no mean feat! (Hopefully i haven't jinxed it by writing that!)Nooooo

A few questions if i may:

what automation software do you use for this? The automation file you have posted elsewhere seems to be a Bet Angel one but i think read somewhere that you prefer BF Bot Manager
absolutly. Much prefer Bfbot manager although it works fine with the Bet Angel automation. Sadly can’t upload Bfbotmanager automation files to the forum

in terms of automation, presumably it is a case of loading the specific horse and market selections into the Bot each morning, and then it will fire on the selections that meet your 3.5-9 odds criteria from the off?
yes literally that simple

i'm not sure if this is an inappropriate question or not (!) but what staking strategy do you use (e.g. flat stake or % of bank), and is this something that presumably is programmed into the bot also?
Yes I was 1% staking. It can be programmed in. I’ve got to the point where I don’t need to increase on these anymore so I am now flat staking

your results seem to start from Aug 2019 - is this when you started the strategy or just when you began to record the results in this way?
i started then and started recording then as well. Sadly cannot back test

am i right in thinking you use http://www.in-running-trading-tool.co.uk/ to filter for your potential selections?
that is the one. Just working on sheer dob stats with my filters

Many thanks in advance and keep up the sterling work!
Cheers, Shaun

Today's. A big list but a lot will fail on odds.

plus 3 for me. Some might be plus 4 depending on odds. But I'm literally a cats whisker away from the 100

I miss @Charles-Cartwright . He is probably on one of his clandestine ops.

Yeah, just noticed he's been offline (here) for two months. Wonder if he is still a member?

Might be just leaving everything alone as its a bit weird still? Or as I said he's gone full 007

Frustrating day. Two winners outside of odds. -1 point
