Quick Question - Average Number of Horses..

[PeterLe]

Hi
Quick Question please..

I've been working on a new systems for a few weeks and drew up some projections to determine whether it would be profitable long term, taking into consideration the PC, comm etc...

Working on an average of 8000 races a year, roughly what would be an average number of horses per race??

if anyone has a rough idea it would be much appreciated
Thanks
Peter

9.89 is the answer you are looking for. We have tracked this number for some time. It's pretty stable overall, but varies a little and has generally been in decline.

Thanks Peter
I bit higher than I thought?
Based on that figure I estimate I would make £418/Year using that strategy! ...and would lose when I get to super PC!
Back to the drawing board for that one!
