The Totopoly Kid I have come to punting very late in life - in retirement, in fact. But I was not new to racing when I did, for as a boy my favourite board-game was Totopoly and, in Australia at the time, I was taken a few times to magical Randwick, the Sydney racetrack.

Diary for Nov 12 2006

Results of bets on Sun Nov 12 2006
Day224Month08Week2.5Sunday Mode(Phase 06C Day12)


Should have been reasonably good
PROSPECTS (as they seemed last night)
8 in my short-list today (5 won, 2 placed and 1 lost), all strong Sunday consensus favs on the face of it, but my stats are strongly supportive of the win on only TIDAL BAY/WON (Row 1) &, to a lesser extent, IT TAKES TIME/LOST (Row 3 because my 'odds configuration' stat for it says only a bit better than 50/50 for the win Doubt born out, at least
OUTCOME: Not one of my better days. I needlessly missed bets that cost me dear, relatively. Had Dishdasha won, last knockings, a significant difference for the better would have saved the day partially. As it is, I have to be highly satisfied with the small profit I squeaked on Basic Plan     BASIC PLAN +3 (within OVERALL -22)

Financial Summary E&OE:-
Note: I now express these summaries as "Basic Plan within Overall."
C/F to Nov Week 2.6 Day 225 (Phase C: Day 13)
BASIC PLAN (Phase 06C wef 01/11/06) = +70 @ an average of +c6/day .... within OVERALL (Phase 06C only) = -52* points @ an average (this Phase) of  -c4/day. Gain-days in Phase 06B: Nov:- 7 Basic Plan (6 Overall) [*see above for this month's overall gain/loss position] Note: Break-even days count as Win ones - a new ruling I've introduced - on the basis that 'if I haven't lost, I must have won,' which, about betting on horses, I think is fair enough!
PLUS B/f BASIC PLAN (Phase 06B: 01/08/06-31/10/06) = +204 points .... within OVERALL (Phase 06B only) = +41 points (Gain-days in Phase 06B: Aug:- 14 Basic Plan (Overall 15) [-105]; Sep: 15 (13) [-201];  Oct: 17 (18) [+347])
PLUS B/f BASIC PLAN (Phase 06A: 01/04/06 to 31/7/06) = -366 points ..... within  OVERALL Phase 06A only = -2656 points (Gain-days in Phase 06A: In Apr: Overall 11 from 29 bet-days [-957]; May: 15 from 31 [-174]; Jun: 15 from 30 [+408]; Jul: 15 from 31 [-1938])

Row 1
1220 Carl. TIDAL BAY/Won F/c 4/6 Min value odds according to my Odds configuaration stat + 20% = 1.59 New odds stat stakes enhancer (Row 1) x 1.70 Old stat stakes enhancer x  4.20 (based on only 26 results)
Bets: Capped Basic + Mop Up, 2-Row 'Doubles' (with Naps 1 normally but today an enhancement of the Win single as there is no 2nd qualifier/selection), 2-Row 'Trebles' (with Row 2 normally but no other qualifier, so a further enhancement of the Win single - overlooked), Capped Place Only, the 3 Combos Bit of a disaster. I was too tired to finish my work last night, overslept, overlooked to place 1/3rd of my win bet stake, NO Place Only bet got matched. Bear in mind, I'd also declined to incorporate a Star bet element today. "Disaster;" definitely.     BASIC PLAN +3
