    Bad 2nd Day only 2 Winners :(
    I think Ill do one more day and see how it goes
    Surely Sporting Life have just had a bad day?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,341 ✭✭✭El Horseboxo


    I think if you do all of Sporting Life's tips you will have a losing day. But if you look at all that they have and then cross reference with some other sites or on some of the horse racing forums you can wittle down a smaller list which may improve your strike rate.

    thas pretty much what im doing at the mo..if you back all their tips you will be down more often than not..
    you have to have some bit of knowledge of the sport or it wont be worthwhile.
    theres loads of sites that offer tips so just shop around...

    I don't gamble on horses but was checking them out for a while to see how good they were in case i dabbled in it in the future and there seemed to be some good analysis from certain members who really know their stuff. So could be worth checking out those forums.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 88,972 ✭✭✭✭mike65


    Try www.timeform.com/free they list the top 3 rated horses cross reference the list tomorrow, thats I what intended to do today but forgot.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 257 ✭✭Con1110


    Mix of two sites picked the ones which choose the same winners

    Catterick
    14:15 Taspeya
    14.45 AvonValley
    15:15 Local Hero

    Exeter:
    14:05 Dare Me

    15:05 Quzak
    15:35 Vamazi
    16:35 Court in Motion

    Kempton Park
    15:55 Suntrap

    1euro on each
    Stake:€9
    We will see how tomorrow goes


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 88,972 ✭✭✭✭mike65


    I crossed checked that list of yours with gg.com tips, and of the 5 selections in question 3 won and two placed. So one one days testing it looks like a system worth testing properly.

    the 3 winners were not exactly value bets in fairness.
    dare me 1/6 (your hardly counting that)
    avonvalley 13/8
    court in motion 4/6

    there not that impressive to be fair..
    thats still a poor strike rate


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 88,972 ✭✭✭✭mike65


    Sure but its still worth testing - 5 picks nothing unplaced.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,899 ✭✭✭coughlan08

    ya but he backed 9 not 5..

    anyway im already on the case..:)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 257 ✭✭Con1110


    I ended up placing 2euro on each horse and 4 euro on dare me..
    4 Winners: AvonValley
    Local Hero
    Dare Me
    Court in Motion

    2 Seconds Tasfeya
    Vamazi

    1 Third - Sumersby

    Dunno What I won yet lads must collect whatever I won 2moro had no money in online account


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 257 ✭✭Con1110


    As mike said its just a system which seems to work if you put 3-4 sites tips together..
    I reckon I defo made a profit for the day so it cant be bad..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,408 ✭✭✭ft9


    What price were the 4 winners?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 257 ✭✭Con1110


    1/5 4euro
    15/8 2euro
    4/1 2euro
    4/6 2euro

    Rough Estimates


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,408 ✭✭✭ft9


    €4.80
    €5.75
    €10
    €3.33

    Should be €23.88 returned for stake of €20


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 257 ✭✭Con1110


    Stake of €20
    8horses X 2euro
    1horse X 4euro

    Its a Profit might not seem alot but if people had the money to put down 200 instead of 20
    Thats over 38euro of profit

    Warwick
    13.25 Pantxoa €5(1st)
    15.10 Hear my Song €5(2nd)

    Im giving up on this idea as I believe Coughlan is right non profitable..
    I didnt actually back these today as I didnt have time to..
    But It was worth looking at it but i doubt its profitable in the long run as its easier to have a very bad day than have a very good day
    Thanks
