Spot A Winner In Any Race ?

By Mad Max | 05-Jan-2018
Horse Talkers,
Your expertise needs to be diverted to something beneficial to race goers. Can you spot a winner today in any race? Come on, post here ! Your attempt could be a BONUS to your followers, hence your choice SHOULD FINISH AT LEAST IN PLACE.

My Choice:
5th race:
1-BOLD COMMAND

Remarks:
Running over pet distance, weight no problem, last year winner same Cup on Jan 07, should do well.

Adversaries:
SHIVALIK STAR: Always beaten by Bold Command whenever they met.

GESTAPO: Running after 699 days, I dont consider Attaollahi can turn the horse to winner without a run, no Harry Houdini magic expected.

JERSEY WONDER: Distance short

MAGISTERO: Doosara from the stable, but lack the class.

PEARL CITY: Can go the distance, promoted, facing tough company for the first time. Since there is only one place, it is very difficult to predict who will snatch it.

@ BKD
I was expecting a reply from you, but I received it after posting rules for a 10 days Super Rich Tipster contest starting from today. Contest thread already published. Hence sorry, we will consider your proposal after 10 race days, let me complete already announced contest one successfully, at least this time. I was not successful in earlier attempts, and heard lot of things against me for that, so please co-operate.

Dear MAD MAX,

Re: 'IN THE MONEY'
------------------
Ideally, devise an Excel format having the following fields.

Name of participant

No.of races tipped:

No.of Winners picked:

Strike Rate(%)

No.of SHPs:

No of THPs:

CUMULATIVE DIVIDEND EARNED:

Notes/Assumptions
------------------
-Bangalore tote dividends would be applicable
-Only the WIN Earnings would include both Win & 1st Place Dividend.
-1 tip/tipster permissible for any meeting.
-Cut off time 30 mins before start of 1st race of the day.
-Valid for ALL center/s under Bangalore tote.

I wish I could take up this exercise on behalf of all the participants but honestly, I'm too tied up at the moment with my business operations..pan Bengal.

MM, see if you can manage or any other HT volunteer who could maintain the records on the computer?

Would be worth the while for all racegoers!

Hope you come out with a solution.

Regards,
BKD

I had sent a post yesterday night.Just checked it was never published .By the way I had selected (8-1) Tsar

If you have played Gestapo in the following manner,
you should have received below dividends:-

Win 100 Tickets, = 16 x 100 = 1.600
Shp 100 Tickets, = 0
Place 410 Tickets = 13 x 410 =5,330
Total Return: 6,930
Less: Investment: 6,930-6,100 = Profit 830 Only

Same way had you played Bold Command
You would have got more dividends:

Win 100 Tickets, = 0
Shp 100 Tickets, = 25 x 100 = 2,500
Place 410 Tickets = 13 x 410 =5,330
Total Return: 7,830
Less: Investment: 7,830-6,100 = Profit 1,730 Only

I am not rationalizing the loss of Bold Command
or the way I managed my money.....
I made more profit than Gestapo players.
-------------------

N.B;
This is not for continuing any type of arguments, but to see how long one can continue the winning sequence?
I will calculate all players dividends same way I calculated or in a more mature way to satisfy all with a view to make the game more challenging. I will post the final tally on Monday.

Gestapo winning on tight reins from Bold Command. In fact I am a fan of P Trevor & follow his horses mostly, likewise everyone on HT can do so. One can pick up the connections & follow good horses.

@ M M,

Appreciate your initiative,can prove useful . Would suggest that the participants also give the reasons for their selection, thereby, others would be made aware of certain aspects that could possibly have been missed by them in their evaluation.

Today, my selection is Zafran.(For lack of time,not possible to give reasons.)

Hope this thread becomes popular amongst HR, and is restricted to the topic that has been envisaged by M Max.

Thanks .

@ Raj

Gestapo ran exactly 699 days back.
Someone has raised a counter question yesterday MOGADISHU won after 770 days..? Poor chap... Mogadishu took a lay off of 114 days only.

INSTALL DAY COUNTER ON YOUR BROWSER:

Now for the benefit of all horse talkers - asking to install DAY COUNTER plug-in to your browser. Search Google for DAY COUNTER plug-in and install. After that the Day Counter will display on your browser's TOP RIGHT CORNER. Just put the cursor on it and 'right click on your mouse' and click on OPTIONS; another window will open with a box. JUST WRITE DOWN THE "START DATE" IN THE BOX PROVIDED - THE HORSE RAN LAST ran - GESTAPO 2016/02/07 (year/month/date) as per the FORMAT SUGGESTED AND CLICK ON 'SAVE BUTTON'. TOTAL DAYS automatically WILL DISPLAY ON THE "DAY COUNTER" ON TOP RIGHT CORNER OF YOUR BROWSER (I am using Google Chrome) NEAR THE three perpendicular dots (settings menu). Dont forget to feed your Date of Birth into the box and find out total days you are on mother earth as a spoilt child (Lol).

@ Krish
Spot a winner - means - ensure your horse get place money. You are a winner..simple. It needs not win.

69 Pinyada should win considering that it has run 2nd to Shaman and running over its ideal distance and is the youngest in the field.

3rd race: The Belur Plate
Rocket punch- This horse has always finished close to winner consistently,ran a good race last time with blinkers added and with 100mts less to travel should get its long pending success.
Best wishes

why call it "SPOT A WINNER IN ANY RACE" ?
when Shp and place is entertained

Starone said ...

06-Jan-2018
Nothing succeeds like success and explanations are given only for the losses. One very good bet for the DAY -

G E S T A P O - WIN.

BOLD COMMAND WILL NOT BE ABLE TO MATCH GESTAPO. ....


BETS WORTH PLAYING WIN WOULD BE :

INTO THE GROOVE - FLAMBOYANCE & AEROSPEED.

AT DECENT ODDS.

Based on it's last Mock Race my choice GESTAPO

@ BKD JI,
Then devise a strategy to rank the tipsters. I am leaving it to you. Here anyone can pick a horse from any race. Tipster should concentrate only on his horse. Tipsters sole motif should be to score over others by his selection. No one need to criticize others.

@ Raj Ji
So far three comments from you under this thread. If you wish you can desist from multiple posting, otherwise continue. Otherwise take your time and write whatever you want in a single post. Thanks.

Further, I have mentioned Race No. and Horse Number in the Leading thread. Then how you can say ".....Where on Earth is Bold command is running? Do we have time to search ? Nooooooooooooooo". WHY YOU ARE RESTLESS ? This is a new thread SPOT A WINNER FROM ANY RACE. YOUR HORSE SHOULD BE IN THE MONEY. THAT'S ALL. I JUST STARTED THE LEADING THREAD. NO ONE NEED TO CRITICIZE THE OTHER ONE. Just Pick a horse from any race and post it here and wait for the result. Help the punters. You use your energy for this. Thanks again.

@ ALL HORSE TALKERS

WE have seen in the past lot of people STARTED TARGETED CRITICISM against the tipster who created the lead post (Not Only against Me but also against others). No one bothered to question other participant's failed tips in the same thread?. That was not anyone's concern !

That is the reason THIS TIME name of the title has been changed to SPOT A WINNER IN ANY RACE ?

THIS IS A REQUEST TO PICK YOUR SINGLE HORSE from any race. If your horse is not winning no problem, it should either finish in SHP or in THP. The chosen horse should not finish out of the place money that is the main idea. However, in any case the horse finished out of the board, no problem, there should not be any criticism as well.

So INSTEAD OF CRITICIZING OTHERS, CONCENTRATE ON YOUR SINGLE SELECTION AND WAIT FOR THE RESULT. I want all you to contribute and help others.

I agree GESTAPO had run 699 days back. But it's track work and mock race and class is more than sufficient to win.

Race confined to bold march, gestapo & pearl city.

Bold march form on decline and conceding weights all over.
Gestapo 2yrs long lay off and dropping back sharply in distance can’t bk confidently on basis of mock race.
Pearl City receiving weights and age in favour looks a value bet.

Gestapo doing good track and it already ran in mock race. So for 2m0r it's a best and good bet.

5 th race The new year cup- Bangalore.

Bold command is a spent force. It will never win a race even in class 3 race.
Shivalik star and and Ace Buccephauls are not even fit to pull a cart.
Less said the better about other horses.
Now the last man(horse) standing. Gestapo. It's last run was in Feb 2016. Not 699 days back!!!! Will win hands down with Trevor.

Final selection: GESTAPO.

Raj said ...

05-Jan-2018
With multiple races on Soo many days one need to mention race centre first and race number next and name of the cup/ trophy.etc.
Where on Earth is Bold command is running? Do we have time to search ? Noooooooooooooooo.

@ Mad Max,

Spotting a winner in any race...how would this concept benefit the lay racegoer?

Barring the followers of a few 'established' tipsters, rest may not gain anything from this exercise, I'd reckon.

Simultaneously I would suggest, that a strike rate record of a chosen few tipsters has to be maintained so that a lay reader can choose the tips of those tipsters with the highest strike rates and so on. That'd make a lot more sense.

What do you think?
