The Daily Donkey
 

How long's this been going on?

Google it and enjoy.

I'm picking up some nice profits here. I'm using the Betfair Reduction Factor (BRF) as a price guide. I'm giving Maria Staking a go, and using her nothing over $11 rule.

See what you think.

Excellent night with the Donkey
 

Just off to get some sleep. Bot can take over from here.

6 lays for 6 losers so far this morning in the UK.

Sweet dreams

Pixie

That should say layed horses in 6 races for a collect in each.

Overnight the bot and I layed 13 of The Daily Donkeys lay recommendations for 13 losers. A lovely 100% strike rate. I've been a bit selective with their tips and I'll write a brief overview of my method before Monday nights UK meetings. I'm taking the weekend off from the UK.

I wonder though, considering their published results claim to have turned 100 into 2779 in the last two days whether I should just lay the lot. From observation some of the SP's they publish aren't available on Betfair so beware here, but on the whole I can't believe they're giving this stuff away for nothing and wish I'd discovered them a couple of years ago and not just this week.

I'm tempting the axe on this thread I think but here goes anyway.

Interested in your thoughts

Pixie

Interesting site, Pixie. I think I remember going to it in the dim distant past --- probably before the idea of laying on B/F had come into being.

If my figures are correct, there were 24 picks last night, of which 4 won. (I layed two of them and managed to pick one of the winners, of course.) Your 13/24 was great. I, for one, look forwrd to reading your ideas on selection when you get around to writing something about them. And would you say something about the "Bots". Personally I haven't a clue about them!!

In my reading of Maria's thread she does say that her staking plan suits what she was doing there; but does not necessarily trans fer to any selection process. Worth thinking about?!?!

Good luck this weekend.

Hi Merriguy

Yes I don't think Maria Staking is aggresive enough for these selections. Will look at using my normal fixed liability staking I think.

Have a good one.

Pix

Though they are giving results as to a fixed outlay (100). I note they do not take on any double figure odds.

I'd be expecting a correction soon...
 

So the Donkey team are 4368 up after 3 days! Correction looming I think. Have a look at where they were at this time in January 2007.

If they keep going at this rate they're in for a bumper month but... on only 4 occassions since 2004 have they posted a monthly return of more than 10,000.

Maybe being a bit selective is the way to go afterall.

Sunday 4th March
 

I'm not having a go with the Donkey tonight. If I was I'd be trying to lay the following at less than or equal to the prices indicated.

Time Selection SP
0150 Heavy Weather <=3.55
0250 Sharp Jack <=3.90
0250 Haggle Twins <=3.05
0250 Mage d'Extruval <=4.80
0320 Royal Paradise <=4.70
0420 Tinarana Lord <=4.40
0420 Lifes A Flyer <=6.60

Good luck. I'm sure it'll all fall in a heap now

As suspected a small heap formed.

Good night to have off, Pixie :). Unfortunately you picked the only two that won -- and two winners out of seven is pretty fatal in this laying game.


I managed three losers (winners) out of three; but guesswork not science, I'm afraid.

Still think that there must be a way to profit from their suggestions.
