And thanks from me too, I'm new to the racing scene and have enjoyed the daily tips, even after today's bad luck I'm still going to check at 22:30 for tomorrow's, the ratings definitely help me understand too

Thanks for taking the time and effort to put the ratings back up

thanks for ratings

Thanks for that. I appreciate the work you put in, and I'm sure everyone else does.

Ratings link

No I'm keeping the faith. Bets are already placed. As you've always said same stakes throughout. I'm happy that you've explained that. I'd hoped you hadn't gone looking for a winner (short price). I'm happy to take it as it is. Even now, I'm 90something stakes up. If we are here because we have faith in it so be it.

I must admit I miss the rating link. That gives me confidence and helps me understand.

Thanks for explaining

Good luck Pab

I agree dark-horse and it’s not what we want to see when we’re having a bad run. One of the problems with system betting is it takes us where it takes us and as on this occasion we can find ourselves in an uncomfortable position. A wipe-out today would not be very pleasant and I must admit that in the past I have altered selections to make it more palatable but overall it was a mistake to do so, it cost us profit. Now here’s my quandary; when I’ve altered selections in the past it has had a negative effect apart from making things easier on the nerves. If in doing so do I erode the integrity of the system if I alter parameters on an ad-hoc basis? Is there validity in a system where the rules keep changing? If we were on a good run would we even consider changing things, probably not? We may say that if that’s the mechanism that’s produced profits why are we changing it, is it the situation we find ourselves in that’s making us make that decision, are we allowing the tail to wag the dog? When I looked at today’s selections I did think shit I don’t like the look of those and they couldn’t have come at a worse time. Having thought about it I made my decision, I don’t fancy them but I’ve backed them. I’m following the system to the letter and if that means walking into the valley of death so be it. Everything seems against us,

in a bad run, some small fields, poor prices even the date. The system as is either works or it doesn’t, you of course are at liberty to make your own decisions.

i am deliberating now on 5.30 Sal,i think Danecase 7/1,look 4:00 SALISBURY Perfect Quest 9/1 overpriced

That's an unusually high level of short priced tips.
