Anyone else like a bet?

Best way to win at the horses is to become a bookie! My dad always used to say you never see a bookie on a pushbike!

That's simple these days, just use the betting exchanges, but thousands of profitable systems exist for both backing and laying. The bookies only make 1% ROI, and then have to pay 10% tax out of those profits, so they need to bet £Millions to make anything decent, and a bad meeting like Cheltenham or Royal Ascot can really deplete yearly profits.

Dodgy system Les. A few years back a favourite failed to come first for about 30 or 40 consecutive races. I can't remember the exact number.

Form memory, you needed an 8 figure sum in the end to win £1

Here's a simple system that has profited for decades, back all horses 1/5 or less. Longest losing run was 3 in the early 90's.
