2 by GB I had forgotten how difficult it is to chose a horse for each race. Much easier when you can just ignore the races without clear astrological significators. Slowly working through the first day ... Quote Fri Jun 16, 2017 9:33 pm
3 by GB Hope people have noted to scoring system for a winner or placed horse: Race win - 10 times the Starting Price. E.g. SP of 6-1 gives Score 10 times the starting price: 10 x 6 = 60 points. Race Place - 3 times the Starting Price. E.g. SP of 5/2? Score 3 times the starting price: 3 x 2.5 = 7.5 points. So it's best to avoid very low priced favourites. If the winner was at evens, the score would be 10. However a place at 7/2 would give 21 divided by 2 = 10.5 a better return. In looking at Monday's races, I have avoided odds-on favourites, instead, going for a horse that might come in 2nd or 3rd at reasonable odds. Not an easy card. Quote Mon Jun 19, 2017 9:16 pm
4 by ModWasp What stables are you using for the various techniques, GB? Would be interesting to see. PM me if you like, or leave a message on the league notice board. My astro bets - JAM - (what else?) are for Glue Factory. My non-astro selections and tips from a couple of pro's will go under Ozil's Eyeballs and everything else (plebeian guesses mainly from OLBG.com) will be filed under Balir to the Hague. Best of luck!

5 by GB Mainly using JAM with a bit of colour in stable GB (in the Twitter league). GB2 and GB3 are a bit of a mixture - I need to be more organised. If JAM gives a clear planet then I use GB2 and GB3 for different horses that match the planet. If JAM is not clear, or the planet has no obvious horse link, then I use the angles to a planet. All a bit disorganised in the heat! Quote Tue Jun 20, 2017 9:09 am

7 by GB Not a good day! Would somebody please explain the astrology to the horses as they seem to be ignoring it. Quote Thu Jun 22, 2017 3:02 pm
8 by ModWasp League position 62 - at one point on Tuesday we were 8th. Admittedly, I personally haven't managed my stables very well with regards to jockeys and trainers, so i'll hold my hands up there. If our league finishes in the top 20, it's a result! Verum e Quote Fri Jun 23, 2017 5:07 pm
