SUMMARY
Those ‘killer’ factors
THE REALITY OF PRICING A FIELD (Part
2)
In previous articles I mentioned that we would later concentrate
on refinements and pricing.
However, in doing so I'm conscious
of not making the task too difficult for users of the Killer Factors and
hopefully what follows is true to that objective.
The sort of
refinements I have in mind refer to the first three factors: Beaten
Distance; Order of Favouritism and the Average Prizemoney Index (API)
ranking.
SUMMARY
The case for Aussie Betfair
THE ISSUES & THE ANSWERS
When it comes to betting exchanges, it's no wonder Aussie punters are confused. The rhetoric from racing's officialdom has been often exaggerated and fear-sowing. Here's how Betfair explains its situation in regard to being accepted here in Australia.
SUMMARY
It’s time to stop the nonsense over exchanges
THE CASE FOR AUSSIE BETFAIR (PART 1)
Betfair commenced wagering on Australian racing in early 2003 and their market share, while still only small by comparison with the more traditional tote and bookmaker operators, has steadily grown.
A few months after the commencement of Betfair's Australian operations, on June 28 2003, during his weekly "Racing To The Max" radio show heard on Sydney's 2SM and some other stations throughout NSW, journalist Max Presnell stated to his audience that he had been told that sometime the following week an announcement would be made to the effect that betting exchanges would be outlawed in Australia.
SUMMARY
Size ‘em up systematically
WEIGHT IS THE CLUE
My friend and colleague Denton Jardine has been unwell of late and has asked me to provide the final part of his series on systems and form defects.This is a subject which Denton and myself have discussed in detail for many years. Both of us are “form nuts” and while others might enjoy a round of golf you’ll find us sharing a coffee or a beer with formguides at hand!
We agree that as far as betting is concerned the biggest FORM DEFECT is often…the trainer! This might be a contentious finding but as far as we are concerned it’s the right one.

THE PERILS OF THE BETFAIR LAYER (Part 2)
Following on from the Roman Koz article in last month’s Practical Punting Monthly, the editor asked me to share some of my experiences as a Betfair user with readers as well.
I found Roman’s article of immense interest as his approach has been somewhat different from my own. However, before sharing some of those experiences, perhaps a few words about where wagering and in particular betting exchanges are heading would be appropriate, given that punters deserve some certainty in this regard.
At this point, the future of betting exchanges, and in particular Betfair, remains uncertain in Australia.
