thanks jose for the reply ..yes those columns you mentioned came up a lot in the posts i came across..a few years back at the "club" [local watering hole]....one of the chaps had a good run[for awhile] in backing top neurals which were 100pts ahead of 2rd pick and also odds-on priced on worksheets ...sure good strike rate but was mostly short-priced favs..plus with those 2 rules only a few bets each month..saturday ,melb and syd. only. came the run of outs then he dropped off....thanks again ..TOG...
