Just had 2 matched @ 1.81 in the 18:38 in Tampa

SP for fav was 3.55 (Prob Back Price) what I think is happening my bot is set to fire 1 second into play, and then re arm in 2 seconds if first trigger failed... So I guess these low SP horses are kicking the bot in with a dodgy start & their odds rise to 3.95 within the first 3 seconds... Will leave how it is for now

Same again for Tampa.

First race lays @ 2.04

Time Shift
Moments To Savour

Almost came good but the lay won from short priced fave. Nothing in the next as frontrunners are also late pace so presumably able to dominate from start to finish easily enough.

Next 2 not likely to hit but nevertheless I will try.

It was close in the end but no cigar. One race to go.

Mister Storm a heavy favourite. Depending on the price it goes off I'm going to lay it for less than the others. Had it not been for the lay of 3.0 price tonight this thing would be in credit for Tampa.

Laid it at 1.52 in the end and glad I did. Won quite easily.Think I may get rid of laying short price faves.

£12.00 matched on the fave @ 2.04 so missed that one.

C'rea Una Volta got very close but the favourite took over so 2 wins to start followed by 2 losses.

[A Former User]

1 matched in the 17:53 @ 2.04
3 matched in the 18:25 @ 2.04

Both races show the Fav was below Lay odds of 4.0 However with my bot set for greater than 3.95 and Lay All 1 sec into play I guess both Fav's had a bad start... Seems strange that 1 second can kick in an SP of 3.53 (18:25)

Still it's kinda working, on checking stats I've had the following;

22 races Laying @ 1.98 5.55pts green
24 races Laying @ 2.04 3.41pts green

Not really enough races to allow for variance need 100 minimum but I guess it's painting a picture

Race 4 the first loser

[Richard Latimer]

Race 3 a winner

Ok so..........another day another non dollar (few pence):

In the first race at Tampa, assuming I plan to do what I did yesterday in Charlestown (to little effect), which I do, it will be a lay of the following horses @ 2.04

17:25
Tartan The Bull
Sammys Mineshaft

One race down

@martin-futter Two weeks then , things are starting to click into place , probably best sport is slowly coming back rather than all at once for a trading perspective will help with mentalilty

Will help us not to end up back at square one as well I would think.

Around 2.5 points down at the end of that experiment. Still think it could work with a couple of tweaks.

Firstly there was nowhere near enough liquidity last night given it was a two bit course that no one cares about (suspending midway through a race when short price fave already matched super unhelpful).

Secondly I got matched on a 5f. Too short I think.

Thirdly, matched on a couple of faves pre race so when price short as 2.5ish prob good idea to lower lay price for that horse.

May try again on Tampa tonight.
