I've been betting a Place system since last Tuesday and there have been 24 selections for no losers - i.e. 24 selections for 24 placegetters.

I'll list today's selections in order of race-time, and with amusement see if the F.Curse does its job.

Murwillumbah R4 no.1 - Zekeza
Cranbourne R7 no.1 - Regibush
Bunbury R2 no.3 - The Duxford Wing

Murwillumbah R4 no.1 - Zekeza, only one I have my doubts about.
Could be wrong!

No 11 M Mozart for mine.

You're a brave man, Michael ! Good luck anyway. Was missing your posts and ideas.

The laying idea seems to have fallen a little on hard times. Still you have to expect that, I suppose.

Now its 27 selections for 27 placegetters.

What happened, Forum Curse, you wimp!

On fire. Well done. Fantastic effort there.

The Curse may have had the last laugh because its the first day the method lost on Win betting.

it may have lost on win betting but you said its a place betting system, I had an all up with your selections for the place today so I hope they keep performing like that!

Glad you won, Horse Whisperer. I had individual Place bets.

Even though I've only bet Place, there have been 13 winners from the 27 selections for a POT of 17% on Win betting (NSW TAB divvies), so yesterday's loss of $0.60 was no big deal. Place shows a profit of 34% which is not unexpected from a 100% strike rate.

I'm also testing and betting another Place system using the common filter with the above system, namely 8 to 12 starters only. However, the final selections are derived from a different source. Even though it has a high strike rate (14 winners and 23 placegetters from 25 selections) Win betting shows a higher POT than Place.

I'm again going to tempt the Curse, but with the second method which has not yet suffered a losing day.

Musswellbrook R8 no.5 - Dubai Fling
Wangaratta R2 no.3 - Escargot
Wangaratta R7 no.2 - Jeuneys End

michaelg, I've been place betting sucessfully for quite a few years and have had runs of 20+ several times and an overall S/R 80%+, (for a small % profit) but most of my bets are Metro Wed& mainly Sat. I've never been able to make it pay Weekdays (all racing) so you are doing particularly well in my opinion.

One thing though, you MUST change to "best tote" makes all the difference. As I said elswhere there is a new player now offering Best Tote or 1/4 SP odds (the place) whichever is higher.
