Graham's Pratice Placepot Perms
Drawbias.com suggests a high draw bias over the straight course at Newcastle A/W. Particularly the shorter distances.
I looked at the last 5 meetings and the results seem to back this up, and I would even suggest there is a high draw bias in the longer races. Although the shorter the race, the more the bias.
It looks like the high draw (which I think is the stands side) is the place to be be.
I will take this into consideration with my A, B, C selections.
I think if we can combine a perm strategy with a known and reasonably consistent bias, we could benefit.
We'll see anyway.
Just thought I would put that out there.
Cheers,
G

P&L VIRTUAL TABLE BELOW:
Most days I won't have time to study any form, so they will be purely statistics based most of the time.
I will keep two running profit and loss totals. One for "Virtual" and one for "Real"
On average I will stake around 100 "virtual pounds" per meeting. On some occasions, I may actually place the bets, if I do this I will keep a separate tally on "real" ones as well as the virtual.
GL to my fellow Placepot comrades. :=)

Rather than class races as NON_COMPETITIVE, COMPETITIVE AND VERY COMPETITIVE, I have given them a "COMPETITIVE RATING" between 1 and 10, where 1 would be a real odds on shot and no strength in depth and 10 would be EXTREMELY competitive, like perhaps the LINCOLN, HUNT CUP or GRAND NATIONAL as examples.
Cheers,
G
So this will count as £64.80 in the "real" P&L chart and £97.20 in the "virtual" P&L chart.

Big Les my fancy in 2.30
well done at least I got some place money
I didn't have any of the first three in LEG 6 in my selections, so by default, must have bust all.
I will do an equity calculator spreadsheet for your Newbury Placepot, just so you can see what is a good result and what is bad.
Let me know if it's of use. I will explain how to calculate it later if you are interested. You may even be able to set a template up to calculate it with formulas.

Running Totals after one Placepot Multi-Perm attempt on 29/06/17:
Virtual Loss: -£97.20
Actual Loss: -£64.80
Chester of course has one of the most well known and consistent draw biases in the county, with nearly all distances favouring low drawn runners.

Not sure if it will be the Jackpot meeting or not. If it is, I may use peoples NAP selections.
Cheers,
G
We shall see. :=)
FYI, Jackpot is 29% and SCOOP6 30%.
Cheers,
G
So real stakes = £54.00 (540 * 10p lines), virtual stakes = £97.20
GL all!

After LEG2:
Ironically the PERM with the best equity is PERM 6: :=(

Good exercise with the equity calculator though.
Think I just about managed to get the above post out before the result came through.
My bets haven't been settled yet, but I expect them to be as detailed above. (Best not to talk about PERM 6) :=(
