** House Notes** Be careful if races start close to each other. You may not get the results of the race you placed a bet on before the next race starts, so do try to either watch a Live Feed of the race or “watch” the race in real-time at Betfair. **

 

For Tripler, OBAD, and Ratchet, I use the 3 selections generated by the HRP software, assess each one, and then say what I am going to do. Obviously, you can make your own decisions as to what you think the outcomes will be. Sometimes, the result of a previous race will dictate whether I stick with my predictions or not. The automated HRP spreadsheet determines your next stake, based on the result of the previous race and is geared at helping you hit your daily target.

My new system, Doc’s Fav Goldmine, is coming along nicely and I have had many winners on the spin. My small stakes have increased in size, due to a constant supply of winning selections 🙂 My DFG Bank is now really building nicely. I only started keeping accurate records since April 1st, 2021. In the first 3 months, my Bank has increased 630.77%. However, as the stake is 10% of the Betting Bank, any losses do hit hard but I have always caught up rapidly before moving ahead again.

I ALWAYS stop betting if I hit my target of 2.5% (or as near as dammit.) Use your common sense – if you get close to your personal target, it’s your decision as to whether you want to carry on & go for it. Personally, I learned the harsh lesson of being greedy, and many times, when just under my target, I have “Gone for it,” only to lose the lot chasing bigger profits.

It’s your call as to whether you take the early odds, hoping they will then go down, or wait until nearer the off hoping the odds have increased. The key thing to remember is a winner (or winners) at odds totaling 1.25 or above will hit your Daily Target. A profit of 2.5% per day will double your Bank in a month.

 

As Albert Einstein allegedly said: “Compound Interest is the 8th Wonder Of The World.”

 

STAY SAFE FELLAS.

More medals! Well done to the Olympians.

DOC’S FAV GOLDMINE

• All selections are in the PLACE market.
• Stop at a profit of 2.5% per day. (Or as near as.)
• Use 10% of your Bank as stake.
• If a loss occurs, keep to the last stake and not 10% of the new, reduced Bank.

I am also showing the early Place Odds in brackets and the number of runners and the number of horses to be placed. It’s your decision as to whether or not you take the early odds or wait, hoping they will increase. The key thing to remember is a winner/winners at odds totaling 1.25 or above will hit your Daily Target. A profit of 2.5% per day will double your Bank every month.

Please be prepared to change your line of thinking – “on the hoof” so to speak – if the odds move dramatically. They may drift, thus making the selection a “No Bet”, or the odds may steam in, making it not worth taking the risk.

If you want to, you can omit any bets with odds below 1.25 (or thereabouts) and just concentrate on the bets over those odds. This reduces the number of bets but means if you get a winner, you have hit your target and can stop betting for the day, not having to risk any more money on another race. (It also means, however, if you do get a loser, there will be fewer races left to recoup any losses.)

Because of a strong winning 3 months, the stakes are getting quite serious now. I’m trying to be mega confident in my selections so will be scrutinising them in a little more detail.

16.55- Nottingham – Yagood. (1.23 – 7 – 2)

Only 1 selection today. To be perfectly honest, I don’t think I will be betting today. In one race, there are 5 withdrawals from a field of 12. I think this week’s weather has caused havoc and has turned what is a precise decision-making process into a lottery. I don’t like gambling – I would much prefer to base my bets on a solid base where there is nothing to interfere with sound judgment.

 

 

YESTERDAY’S SUMMARY

Certainly not a day to write home about. A win on Race 1 for Tripler, followed by 2 second places. OBAD returned a second place but at least all 3 selections finished in the places for Ratchet.

Doc’s Fav Goldmine had a poor day. Last Crusade finished 4th, just out of the places, but yet again, a massive favourite gets beaten by what were, on the looks of it, rank outsiders. Unbelievable and poor horsemanship in my eyes. At least Race 2 came in but the Sandown meeting was abandoned. I guess they had as bad a day weather-wise as I did in Bolton. Why do I have to pick this week to have the roof re-tiled???

I have only just discovered a secret about Horse Racing & The Horse Race Predictor: I have been treating it as a personal affront if any selections let us down. I was treating it as though I am a punter. It has just clicked that I don’t need to worry if we have a loser. It is a business, and like all businesses, they have good days and bad days. I am now treating my Betfair account as a “commodity.” Much like someone who invests in the Stock Market. Shares go up and down, but overall, the result is an upward trend. A losing bet used to ruin my day. Now I can shrug it off as “one of those days” because I know that over the long term, we are on an upward trend.
