I often tend to look for drifters so for me it hasn't been such a hot day. Just a usual Tuesday at the moment. Hoping I can pull something out of the evening stuff.

Why drifters in particular, out of interest?

Can you not trade any move the same way, whether it's a drift or a steam?

Interesting that Euler said that though.

Theoretically, it should be easier to find the drifters as you could only have one steamer per race but a good few drifters?

Also, when a horse drifts it could gain alot morre ticks then a steamer?

Has Euler just given away the key to his success? :P

Its no great secret TBH, the upside is always better and less risky when trading a drifter/laying..... if the circumstances are right, as opposed to backing a steamer which is a bit more risky, I too prefer to trade drifters/lay first, Im sure most traders prefer this as well, but that said its good to mix it up a bit and like drifters, steamers can be fairly obvious to spot.

I don't keep a proper record so that I could say this figure with high acurracy, but I would say that 70% of my trades start with a lay.
