@Martin To be honest, no. My real focus is L2B now so looking for slower starters and drifters

[Martin]

Would you find the high pace ratings and high dob % useful posted here, or perhaps on the daily email?

Horses with the highest Pace ratings for Back to Lay today: (10-12)

@Tony-Hastie dobs been doing well for me recently, don't need them to win just half in price please!

[Tony Hastie]

@Martin As long as it doesnt involve picking winners

[John Folan]

@Martin yeah sorry was half asleep when I saw the message and didn’t hit send lol

[Martin]

@Andy-Donnelly good to hear, you and @John-Folan so far by the looks of it! see if we can get anymore interest

[Andy Donnelly]

@Martin Yeh I’d be up for that

[Martin]

Just trying to work out if there would be any interest in a horse racing challenge? Like we do with the football. If interested reply in this thread.

[John Folan]

I’ve started revisiting older strategies but restricting from 2023 onwards.

LTBF is looking interesting. Will post more in a few days. They aren’t going to make you a millionaire overnight but with sensible staking should provide an income.

Covid really did knock horse form.

@Martin This is the graph of one of my L2B selectors. I added 2021 and 22 out of interest. Nice and consistent over 4 years

that's amazing! well done

@Martin said in The BTC Horse Racing Thread:

@John-Folan so for the ones I have looked at you are right it's near start of 2023

Yep. Agree totally

[Tony Hastie]

and my DOB selector, which started picking up again in Jan 23. Looking at the last 2 months it may be in need of an overhaul!

[Martin]

@Tony-Hastie how have your strategies been going that backtested then? I am finding the same thing in terms of the date.

[Martin]

@John-Folan so for the ones I have looked at you are right it's near start of 2023

[Tony Hastie]

@Martin I only back test 2023, 24 and 25 so wouldnt know tbh....

[Tony Hastie]

Gotta just feel a little gutted when you have a DOB selection in a race you just happen to be watching for a L2B trade and witness your DOB pick romp in paying 16s!

@Martin said in The BTC Horse Racing Thread:

Got a question that I would love to discuss with you guys, when do you think the Covid effect stopped on Horse Racing? When I look through my strategies I can see a rough time period where it went back to normal but want to see if it is similar to yours.
