Winning is easy, it's how you handle and manage losing bets and losing runs that really counts as G K Chesterton once wrote:

Chesterton. Hmph.  I just spent 20 minutes chasing another quote from Chesterton, only to discover it was actually Kipling.

Bah.

Kipling does have some exceedingly good quotes.

Yes, it was the one about cigars:  "A woman is only a woman, but a good cigar is a smoke". 

And have a LOL for the joke.

Only the last 250 bets or so. In a few months that big dip should look relatively smooth.

It finished second but a win is a win. Well done
I know not how your system works but so far only one loser!

Bolton Boy didn't finish 2nd, he fell at the 7th fence in the 15:15pm at Wetherby.

Strike rate for December so far is 90.9%, 20 wins and 2 losers, 30.4% profit for the month. I will publish the full months results at the end of each month.

Apologies i do not have the racing channel I saw that he did not win. 
Extremely good percentage and   will continue to follow with interest. 
So far I have won twice, using a platform called smarkets that let you lay bets. 

I was unable to open an account with betfair as it said I already had one.! 

Keep up good work.

Bet Won. Matched at odd of 6.22 for £4.54 profit

betting bank total is now £254.07

The rate of winning will increase when the stake starts to go up in line with the betting bank but that won't be until the bank reaches £500 which is a few months away yet...

Hopefully in time for the flat racing season

So you want me to just tell you how I make my selections after years and years of refining what I do?  

welby

  no - I'm grateful for your sharing of information, just wondered how much the price changed over a period of time

Dammit, missed the 12:25 as I was busy, it would have been a winning bet if I'd remembered! 14:35 is a no go so no bets today.
