CLUB 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 the race live, or watch it on Betfair.
- For Tripler, OBAD, and Ratchet, I use the 3 selections generated by the HRP software, assess each one, and then state my predictions. Obviously, you can make your own decisions. Sometimes, the result of a previous race dictates whether I stick with my predictions or not. The automated Platinum spreadsheet determines your next stake, based on the result of the previous race and is geared at helping you hit your daily target.
- 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. In the past 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 totalling 1.25 or above will hit your Daily Target. A profit of 2.5% per day will double your Bank in a month.
- I have also added DFG OBAD. (Doc’s Fav Goldmine – One Bet A Day.)
- A SPLIT bet is normally divided into 25% for the WIN and 75% for the PLACE. (ie. 1/3.) If I mention a 2/2 split, it means 50% for the WIN and 50% for the PLACE. (ie. 2/2.)
DOC’S FAV GOLDMINE NOTES:
STAKING PLAN 1
- 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 a stake.
- If a loss occurs, keep to the last stake and not 10% of the new, reduced Bank.
STAKING PLAN 2 (This follows Dave & Gav’s C20 staking plan:)
- Divide your Total Betting Fund into 4 equal blocks. (25% per block.)
- One block – (25%) is used as your Frontline Betting Bank with either 10% or 20% as your stake. (Your choice.) 75% is held in reserve in case of a major loss.
- As you are only using 25% of your Total Bank to bet with, you may want to “Collapse” your Bank and start again at a profit of either 5% or 10%. The choice is yours.
- Any winnings are added to your Total Betting Bank and then the whole process of splitting into 4 blocks starts again.
- You will need to use Gav & Dave’s Spreadsheet to calculate your stakes. (If not a VIP member, you may want to stick with 10% of your Betting Bank as your stake, then follow rules 1 – 3 above.)
As Albert Einstein allegedly said: “Compound Interest is the 8th Wonder Of The World.”
TODAY’S HRP SELECTIONS
Only 2 selection for today’s Tripler. Must be because there are only 3 meetings on all day.
TRIPLER
14.25 – Goodwood – Yacowlef. Head & shoulders above everything else is the odds, it has to be a WIN. (1.64)
16.10 – Goodwood – Rathgar. Tempted to go for a split, but I have faith is the beast and there is a lot of improvement on the cards. Ridden by Aussie soap “Neighbours” loveable chubster, Harold Bishop, I’m plumping for a WIN. (2.40)
OBAD
14.25 – Goodwood – Yacowlef. Head & shoulders above everything else is the odds, it has to be a WIN. (1.64)
RATCHET
Same selections as Tripler but in the PLACE MARKET. Instructions for use: http://bit.ly/35tpfR3
DOC’S FAV GOLDMINE

DFG OBAD
17.10 – Southwell – Another Odyssey. (1.20 – 9 – 3)
YESTERDAY’S SUMMARY
Two wins in the first 2 races on Tripler meant good target-beating performances before the 3rd place in Race 3. OBAD unfortunately suffered and we got the first 2 races on Ratchet.
Doc’s Fav Goldmine had a great 1.42 win in Race 1, so you should have stopped for the day. Race 2 lost as did Race 4. I only hope the faller was OK.
DFG OBAD won again.
I learned the hard way – I always stop after hitting (or getting very close to) target. Sod’s Law comes into play all the time. If you stop, the remaining races usually win. If you carry on, they invariably lose! Don’t be greedy. I got a 42% Return on Investment on Race 1 and that is good enough for me. My target is 2.5% a day. (That’s a winner at odds of 1.25.)
