Once I had determined the “winner” of each pair I had to evaluate what I considered would be the beaten margin between the two in a real match race. The example I presented in that article comprised of a field of eight past champion class horses one could only dream about seeing in one race.

Punters and the riddle of a quest for profit

IS IT WORTH BETTING TO VALUE-LINE ODDS?

A subject that invariably crops up in discussions about betting is the issue of betting to your own price lines. It’s a topic that we’ve covered before in PPM, and one which just keeps on popping up in letters we receive from our readers and in the columns of racing publications around the world.

Books have been written on it, the latest called The Six Secrets of Successful Bettors. It quotes a range of well-known US identities on the subject and what they have to say makes for interesting reading.
