Hi all,
I dont know if this is relevent to any other type of automated trading but i've found that dobbing on novice, apprentise and maidens to be very rubbish more often than not! Anyone else have an opinion my friends?

I'm not a dobber but maidens are often run at a slower pace than handicaps which may explain why there's less activity in-play.

I avoid all novices, maidens and non handicap races.

I like the horses to have had at least some exposure and vaguely accurate ratings before considering a DoB.

As CS says above, definitely want to have some form with horses; minimum of 10 runs for me and like to see runners that travel well under this races conditions.

Obviously that's part of the puzzle as you have to take into account the other runners as well.
