Congrats to Mr Webb for selecting the winner out of this years lottery race(disagree with the lottery part though.)
I do agree entirely with his later statement 'hard work brings more luck( opportunity combined with ability.) It makes no difference if you traded or punted the aintree races you still need to use the same skill set. Opening your eyes allows you to see all the information out there. It is then just a case of selecting the important pieces and placing them into their correct position - as you would a jigsaw puzzle. The minor pieces will drop into place by themselves allowing the viewer to see a clear picture.
From a personal point of view, the cheltenham and aintree festivals where top notch for the punter who had prepared before hand and built up the necessary jigsaw puzzle. There is no better feeling in this world (unfortunately trading the exchanges comes nowhere near personally) than watching the bookies take foolhardy money and then have to pay it out again to myself and others like me.
last summers flat season brought about huge opportunities and the jumps season continued this trend. This summer will not be as profitable for the punter but the following jumps season will and that I can give a 24 carat guaranteed stamp.
Finally, I hope you all enjoyed profitable trading and this continues into the future.
IT'S A GREAT LIFE IF YOU KNOW HOW TO LIVE IT.

Well in very basic terms, 'punting' successfully is thought of by the majority as a medium to short term selective, process particularly the later. For me long term key points are extremely important. The jumps will see a return of yet again the old,middling and new. I know (not believe) that a certain series of events took place this year which will benefit the punter big time. Unless we suffer a 3 month racing blackout next winter the fruit will be ready for pickings.
Last seasons flat campaign was a monster. If someone understood key points leading upto and during this bonanza then 'punting' was the way forward. Taking money from others whether trading or traditional gambling or a combi of both, means making full of opportunities which arise. For example pre May 2009 how many traders/punters realised See The Stars was a very good flat horse capable of achieving what he did?
How about Zenyatta?
The above is not a satisfactory explanation because the subject is extremely complex. However given time constraints it's the best I can do for now. Let me put it this way. My wallet will not be opening as far flat season 2010 when betting talking horses to win.
By the way much different been happening on the exchange(s) lately? I don't know as I've not been watching the markets as a full time trader.

No offence but your reply was more in line with your name than any explanation as to how you can give a guarantee. Perhaps you could explain some of these 'events'. These events may benefit yourself but I would be surprised if they benefited the majority as I would think the bookmakers would be aware of them if that were the case and thus erode the benefit.TheRiddler wrote:I know (not believe) that a certain series of events took place this year which will benefit the punter big time.

There were few aware of the ability of STS or Zenyatta....did you?
Who are the wonder horses of this year?
I think the only people it was a bonanza for was as ever the bookmakers, sure some punters had a great time of it but they would be in the minority and always will be.

No. I am myself and only myself. There are others though on here with different names elsewhere though. I just don't happen to be one of them.sweetybt wrote:Are you smokeyhalo The Riddler?

Firstly I have without intention used general terms in a ill informed manner if that is how you have judged my comment. When I talk about punters winning I don't mean generally. I refer to myself punting as opposed to trading and others with similar beliefs, knowledge, understanding, luck etc. the guarantee is a guarantee for myself as a punter not the majority.andyfuller wrote:No offence but your reply was more in line with your name than any explanation as to how you can give a guarantee.

I am not going to spoon feed the masses including yourself with important findings which will come to fruition later this year and beyond spoiling opprtunities for myself. That is just not going to happen.
Whenever I make a comment it is always with reference from my viewpoint.
Training oneself to notice things other people miss is so important. That's key. Without this we can be no more than bottom of the financial food chain. I believe that to be great at something you need to be great at something else too so that the scales are not favoured on one side. The magority wish for others to spoon feed info because they've chosen to be parrots of their species. Which is absolutely fine in my book.
Oh and yes I did know about sts and zen last year along with some others too.
