First the Total's:
Over 25 Races through four days posted at SBR. Winning tickets in 14 of them.
Exacta $1,248 In $2,235.50 Out +$987.50 Profit ROI = +79.1%
Trifecta $2,412 In $4,956.27 Out +2544.27 Profit ROI = +105.5%
I started sharing at the right time, but make no mistake there are ebbs and flows to horse racing. Weather its a track bias that isn't account for, or its just a day that the favorites seem to get us right at the wire on every race to cut into the profits. It's important to not wager more than 4% (3% if you can) of your bank on each race.
If you scroll to row 770 you'll see that my top 5 (Column "F") win at a 66% clip with place horse getting there 67% of the time. This hit rate is why I structure tickets the way I do. I have no fear of gamblers ruin, but that doesn't mean it can't happen. Good record keeping over the years has helped me weather the losing streaks, and point out weak spots in my handicapping. As you can see I keep track of all my races, and it's all right there for all to see.
I'd have to lose around 30 races before I give up the profit attained here in the last week. In the end I'm just sharing this stuff in hopes of getting more people involved in the Sport Of Kings.
On to Saturday 8/20/2016: Big Stakes Day at Del Mar
Covering SEVEN tracks today and 14 races. Arlington, Del Mar, Ellis Park, Laurel, Monmouth, Saratoga, and Woodbine. Always check back for changes in case of late scratches or track condition changes.
NOTE: Don't bet too early as I will drop a race from the list if the right scratches are made, or if the track conditions change.
At the bottom of the sheet I have wagering bundles, and instruction tabs (3 tabs total). I've tried to come up with the best way to structure tickets for all budgets. I encourage everyone to read this as it explains how the Index works, and the bettor can get the best use out of it.
Play within your means.
I'm trying to attach my spreadsheet to the thread, but I'm also including a link to my google documents in case the upload doesn't work.
