I thought I might as well knock up what those three techniques look like
Or 4...How about measuring it with "predictive tick size"? ....ie work out your amount per tick from the closing price band rather than the opening one? Could be b*ll*cks but I know you like your alternative methods. :geek: I still think the best thing is to remove the whole issue of step sizes and stakes and go for a %age.

Some terrible field sizes tomorrow, Doncaster in particular with 3 x 3 runner races and the largest field being 7 runners and that is all before any late withdrawals, chuck in 15 minute gaps after each Cheltenham race and it is looking very uninspiring.

+1

All the data is there if you want to assess it by another method. Displaying it to £100 is just the simplest, I doubt Euler has some devious motive for doing it otherwise .

Well he's only got himself to blame! :D

If you promote a contrarian ideology - you gotta expect people to refute every bit of mainstream advice given !!

I thought I remembered that 'challenge everything' message from somewhere. :)
I found this nice twist on it.

Uninspiring indeed, make that 4 races with 3 runners, then 4 and 5 in other 2 races :roll:

A total of 28 runners all day at Doncaster, a quarter of which run in the last race!

Possibly more withdrawals to come. Truly shocking day of racing there.

Everybody trades in a slight different way so that's great.

Today looks a similar set up, so my expectations are low. But hope you have a good day again today.
