Today's Horse Racing

[beermonsterman]

Cannot figure out yesterdays racing or even the weeks racing is it just me or has anyone else struggled this week gone ?
I got my arse handed to me which is making me doubt myself ?
My selections are either just getting beat on the line Jockeys falling off or non runners triggering my bets for fun so frustrating.

I know it's lost and its not about getting it back but it made me so angry at myself... one lack of thought, one lapse in concentration dents the confidence.

You can set a max Bet Angel liability in the Settings/Stakings section (just in case you aren't aware of it)... Feel your pain..

James you can bounce back.

Remember that 36 all out from India in 1st test at Adelaide, look at the damage that did to me, serving up my biggest ever loss.

Ouch. That is brutal. How many weeks to claw that back?

Several weeks, operating with a smaller bank and a back to basics approach.

That's a pretty good rebound from worst loss ever. Good for you.

True I think the loss in money is only a factor, it's relative to time & I have a lifetime. My anger towards myself I think comes from making a silly mistake. I'm probably making more of it than I need to, when I told the Mrs she basically shrugged it off as a nothing which says a lot.

Non of them do

Isn't this WRONG? as far as I can see with Kenilworth South Africa this afternoon all races should be turned in-play.

They must have just changed it, when I checked before that post only the one at 'Turf' had the going in-play icon for each race on BF's site

...when trading horses pre-off, what skill percentage is:

a) knowing the horses/form/jockey/trainer/course/weather/distance etc. ?

and

b) knowing how the markets tend to move (ie reading the markets)?

Yes to both. My percentage will be different to others who will respond.

I know nothing about Horse Racing in general, all though I understand how these markets move. I can trade them, I find them more stressful than trading Football markets which is where I focus on.

There can be quite a bit of overlap between the two that you have to take into account but generally speaking for me its >80% b
