The point and shoot approach to mid week races is looking promising, as it
- Saves me time
- Easier to eliminate non contenders
- Widens the scope of betting opportunities on the All Weather surface
However, as I wrote in my previous post, the odds for the obvious (and likely winners) at the front end of the market in non-handicap races is tight. There is little room for mistakes; cumulative loses can hurt your bank balance.
Like Gordon Brown who thought he could eliminate “boom and bust”, I thought that I with some sought of magic alchemy could get away with a selection orientated approach in non-handicap races. Unfortunately the gambling gods don’t give up their rewards so easily.
You cannot be a successful horse player if you are going to get the worst of the price all the time.

After reviewing results thus far I coming around to the realisation that a value betting using “low-priced overly” or “legitimate favourite” approaches are appropriate strategies for non handicap races.
