SMART
MONEY
THE RULES
Rule 1. Bet only on metro meetings in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane,
Adelaide
Rule 2. Only consider the top average prize money earner if it has
a winning strike rate of better than 28%
Rule 3. Eliminate any horse that started more than 21 days ago
(In test in late 90’s showed a strike rate of over 26% over
750 or so races)
A further rule was then added to only back selections that ran 4th
to 6th at their last start. This apparently increased strike rate
to well over 30% but significantly reduced the number of bets
