that is all.
if you recall over the past spring carnival a few bottlers got up.

and i suppose they get up every day. i recall over the past month i have backed trimvision twice at double figure odds (west aust) after he won the start before.
(not based on the gold system) i think trimvision has won 4 on end now the last as a short priced favorite.


Thats an interesting idea, based on the stats on winners and their final odds this might be profitable. I'm going to try it "on paper" over the next couple weeks and see how I fair. I don't know if you saw my thread but I tracked the winners and their final odds from Dec1-Dec22nd and found that there were quite a few winners with odds of $26. My logic being that its worthwhile because if you bet 1 unit, you only need to hit every 25th bet for it to be profitable.
