SYS#24 Strikes Big: Great d'Ange Lands @ 168.99 Betfair SP, Thus More Than Doubling Its 80/1 SP!
SYS#24 has now made over 190 points to BSP since just the 10th of this month!
SYS#24 has delivered an outstanding recent performance, amassing an impressive 191.52 points to BSP since just the 10th of this month! The bulk of these points—nearly 169—came from a massive winner in the 2:45 at Newton Abbot today.
As is often the case with high-priced winners, the Betfair Starting Price (BSP) offered significantly better returns than the bookmaker Starting Price (SP). In this case, BSP paid out at more than double the ISP of 80/1.
Since the 10th, SYS#24 has achieved a staggering ROI of nearly 1,600%! Take a look at the details:
Great d'Ange provided a much-needed boost today, especially after a tough day yesterday where none of our systems managed a win from 19 bets.
August has been challenging for several of our systems. One potential reason could be the consistent race conditions we've experienced during the hot summer weather this month. Stable weather can lead to more predictable races, potentially favouring the favourites and reducing the likelihood of surprise outcomes.
The following data seems to support this theory:
The above data shows the longest losing streaks we've experienced since the end of February this year. It's important to note that horses selected by multiple systems are counted each time they appear. For instance, if a horse was picked by more than one system, it’s counted for each system.
The longest losing streak recorded was 42, with all but one of these extended losing runs occurring within the last five and a half weeks. This can partly be attributed to the introduction of more systems, leading to a higher volume of bets and, consequently, a greater risk of extended losing runs. Notably, one of our newer systems, SYS#35, has a strike rate just above 5%, making it prone to contributing to drawdowns and longer losing streaks.
This increase in betting volume, combined with the high frequency of races at this time of year and the addition of lower strike rate systems like SYS#29 and SYS#35, explains some of these longer losing runs. However, I also believe that the glorious summer weather we've enjoyed this month may have affected our ability to find high-priced winners as frequently as we'd like. And as already contemplated, unpredictable conditions like wet or soft ground can sometimes lead to unexpected results, where less favoured horses outperform expectations.
Consistency of Races:
Predictability: Good weather tends to create consistent race conditions, which can reduce the chances of unexpected results. This often benefits favourites, as stable conditions lessen the unpredictability.
Form and Fitness: Consistent weather allows horses to train and race under similar conditions, potentially giving an edge to favourites who are better prepared and more likely to win.
In Summary:
SYS#24 has proven to be a powerhouse this month, delivering extraordinary returns despite the challenges that August has brought. While the warm, consistent weather may have made it tougher to find those big-priced winners, the system has still managed to outperform expectations with an astonishing ROI of nearly 1,600% since just August 10th. As we navigate these conditions, it's evident that our diverse range of systems, including the recent additions, continue to offer exciting opportunities—even during more predictable racing periods where favourites are often prevailing.
Stay tuned, as the ever-changing nature of the sport ensures that there's always potential for the next big win just around the corner.
