INTRODUCTION

 Obviously finding a horse to place in six consecutive races is not easy. However this publication "Cracking The Placepot" with a new, updated version is a real winner. It really works! Using it will help you to win the Placepot dividends with great regularity, you are virtually guarantted a win every week. Not all placepot are in the £500+ region (although from time to time returns can be in four figures!), but compared with other tyes of race betting the "level-stakes" returns on a week to week basis are huge.

THE METHOD

 Having selected our meeting, we now need to make our selections.

 To capture the Placepot we are going to use a Placepot perm. This allows us to pick more than one horse in each race. Most bookmakers now supply Placepot perm slips which make entering easier.

 To win the pot we need to select a placed horse in each race. Obviously if we had covered say, three horses in every race then our chances are greatly improved. Unfortunately it's not that easy! The more horses we cover in each race, the more costly our bet. To cover three in each of the six races would need 729 bets, ie. 729 times our stake. Too much.

 The perm we use in this plan uses 36 lines, at 25p unit stake the bet costs just £9.00. It consists of a single selection in two of the races, two selections in another two races, and three selections in the remaining two races. 1x1x2x2x3x3=36 bets.

 Now to make our selections for the perm. If you are an experienced student of form you can add your own knowledge to the selection process, but here we are going to base our selections on S.P. forecasts. Using the morning betting forecasts is a very reliable selection method to use with this plan. Here's what to do:

1. Look at the s.p. forecasts for the six races concerned. Look for the two races with the shortest priced favourites. These will be (hopefully) the most reliable favourites of the day, and even if they don't win, they should place. These act as our "single" entries in the perm.

 
2. Select the two races with the biggest fields, they are usually big handicap races, and are always the hardest to select winners in. Take the first three horses in the betting forecast in each of these races, they will be our "three" selections in the perm.

 
3. Obviously in the remaining two races, we use the first two in the betting forecast as our "two" selection elements in the perm.

1. Results are obtained by use of the Daily Mail newspaper.
2. To obtain the one named horse for the day, proceed as follows:-

(a) Below each race the Daily Mail gives where the favourite finished in previous years (normally 7 years results). Go through each card and find the race that the favourite won most times. (b) Repeat the procedure and find the race where the favourite finished second most times.
3. The race for the day will be that with the highest figure ie. The race with the most wins for the favourite or the race with the most seconds. In the event of a race having an equal number of wins and seconds then discard that race. In the event of there being two races with an equal number of wins and seconds then give preference to the race with favourite wins.
4. The one named bet will be as follows:- If the selected race is that in which the favourite has won most times, then back the Named Forecast Favourite, if joint favourites then ignore that race and go on to the next qualifier.

If the selected race is that in which the favourite finished second most times then back the horse quoted as Clear Second Favourite, again if Joint Second Favourite then ignore that race. The reason for this bet is that in a good race for backers the most likely horse to beat the favourite is the second favourite and over the years the Daily Mail betting forecast has proved to be the most accurate.
5. The following exceptions must be adhered to:-

(a) No bet if less than 3 years results.
(b) No bet if less than 2 wins or 2 seconds.
(c) No bet if the horses has never run before.
(d) No bet if quoted at odds-on.
6. In the event of a tie, give preference to:-

(a) Non Handicap race over a Handicap race.
(b) The race with the lowest added prize money.
(c) The smallest field.
(d) The shortest price

Addition to Rules
 

In the event of a selected race being run in two or more divisions then take the shortest priced horse provided it qualifies i.e. has run before. Should it not have run before then ignore all divisions of that particular race and go on to the next best race.

The basis of this system is a MASTER LIST of TRAINERS and the current Season's list of Trainers is as follows:
 

Before telling you how to decide which horse to back, we now come to the meeting to chose. Obviously, if only one meeting takes place that is the meeting for the day but if more than one takes place you back the day's PRINCIPLE MEETING. If this meeting is abandoned or if your particular Newspaper does not designate the PRINCIPLE MEETING then simply use the meeting with the highest total prize money on offer.
 
 

Add additional points to those horses which finished in the first four places on their most recent run PROVIDED IT TOOK PLACE THIS SEASON.

Allot 10 points to any runner which won last time out.
Allot 7 points to any runner which finished second last time out.
Allot 6 points to any runner who finished third last time out.
Allot 3 points to any runner which finished fourth last time out.

REMEMBER - ONLY PRESENT SEASON'S FORM !!!

The system horse is the one with the highest rating in each race.

If no horse in a race is trained by one of the Trainers in the MASTER LIST still allocate points for placings.

You then have your selections for the day.

You then back these on a staking plan of 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32 points but stopping immediately you have a winner,
 

If you do not have a winner on any particular day simply revert back to 1 point the following day.
 

When a horse has won two handicaps, he is obviously a very useful horse, probably still improving and likely to finish the season as a multiple winner.

For the Racemaster system, we watch first for a horse to win its second handicap of the season. (Any two handicaps will do, and theses need not necessarily be in succession.) Next, we look at the horse that finished second to him. If the horse which finished second is giving weight, (at least 1 lb) to the winner and is not beaten by more than two lengths, we list this horse for three chances to win. As soon as it wins, and this need not necessarily be in a handicap, it is eliminated.

Racemaster, which is the most brilliant system ever devised for producing long priced winners, was first introduced  to the sporting public over 40 years ago.

The principle behind Racemaster is that the runner up in these races has produced a useful piece of form in giving weight and getting close to an animal on the upgrade. Also, having been beaten, he will pick up no penalty and at the worst, will only suffer a slight rise in the handicap.

The winners under this system are at surprisingly high average prices, illustrating successfully the advantage of betting in handicaps, if you have an efficient method of dealing with them.

All selections indicated by Racemaster are backed on a level stakes basis and no staking plan is involved.

You do not need  a specialist Racing paper to operate it, an ordinary Daily newspaper with a Horse racing section will be adequate for your needs.

The Henderson Handicap System seeks to search out the quality horse in a Handicap race.

As far as  Handicaps are concerned, it is general knowledge that the better a horse has been performing, the the more weight it has to carry. So therefore the better horses in a Handicap should be those with the most weight to carry. But statistics prove that simply by blindly backing the top weight in Handicap races will not provide you with profits over a long period of time.

The Henderson Handicap System will, however, show you just how to separate the top weights that are the genuine class animals, from the top weights that are just one of the bunch.

It is a fact, and one maybe not everyone is aware of, that there are some horses that run in Handicaps that are so far ahead of the rest of the animals in the race that even by being saddled with a thundering great weight, it will not stop them from winning.

In other words - THEY ARE JUST TOO GOOD!

It is these horses that we are seeking, and The Henderson Handicap System will provide them for you.

Selection Method
   

1.	Go through the racecard of each meeting for that day, make a note of every Handicap race.
2.	Make a note of the weight that the TOP WEIGHT is carrying.
3.	Make a note of the weight that the SECOND TOP WEIGHT is carrying.
4.	Subtract the second top weight from the top weight and make a note of the DIFFERENCE.
5.	Repeat this procedure for every Handicap race of the day.

The system selection is the TOP WEIGHT that is set to carry the biggest margin of weight over its nearest (second top weight) rival.

In the unlikely event of two races producing the same result, select the race with the closest to 8 runners.

If there is still a tie, select the race with the most prize money.

This horse then is the system selection and is the one bet of the day.

STAKING ADVICE

Place your bet to win unless the price is better than 5/1, in which case, providing of course that there are sufficient runners, back your selection EACH WAY.

You will get some tremendous value animals running for you by using The Henderson Handicap System.

SUMMARY

Remember, the horse that the system selects for you is the class animal in the race, otherwise they would not be carrying top weight. By restricting our selections to those with the biggest weight difference, we are surely putting our money on the horse which is that much more superior to even its nearest rival.

System 1 - The sure Fire Betting System

System 2 - The `Seller` Betting System

System 3 - The `Inside Info` Betting System

System 4 - The `Fit And Fancied` Betting System

System 5 - The `On The Mark` Betting System

System 6 - The `Bottom Of The Class` Betting System

System 7 - The `Spot-On` Betting System

System 8 - The `Speedform One` Betting System

System 9 - The `Speedform Two` Betting System

System 10 - The `On The Spot` Betting System

The reason we use only days when Channel 4 covers four races on the television is that the object of the system is to have a Lucky 15.

We therefore have 4 singles, 6 doubles, 4 trebles and 1 accumulator on the television races.

You will know from previous days that the television races are the hardest races to pick the winner. I agree with you, so this system relies on a gentleman who is paid a lot of money to just tip a horse in each of the television races.

So to find the four horses for your Lucky 15, you use the horses that the tipster in your daily newspaper expects to win.

I think I can hear you laughing at this system, that is up to you. All I can say is that you will be amazed at how many times he selects the winner in three of the four races, giving you a fantastic profit to your Lucky 15.

Because of the sort of racing now covered by television, just two winners will give a profit.

Avoid using odds on horses. We need two short priced horses, but not so short as to reduce the return.

Should more than one race look a likely prospect, use the one with fewest runners. This obviously reduces the danger of an outsider winning.

These horses we will call Horse A and Horse B.

2. The next step is a little easier. Locate the race with the fewest runners where the favourite is 9/4 or better. Most days you will find a race with between six and nine runners suitable. We will use the first three in the betting forecast for our bet. These may be priced at,say, 9/4, 3/1 and 7/2.

These we will call Horse C, Horse D and Horse E

3. We now combine our selections in six doubles, with an equal stake on each. The doubles are: AC, AD, AE, BC, BD, BE

To win, we obviously need one of our first two to win AND one of the other three. Remember that we have picked the most fancied horses (as defined by the true experts - the bookies) so we should see a winning bet most days.

How to write your bet

Precision Racing Systems - PJ1 is based on one of the more well known winner finding factors, that of beaten favourites. This may not at first sight seem an original idea, and you would think that it was unlikely to gain any sort of edge. However, by selecting only certain types of races, and applying a few simple qualifying measures to these races, vastly improves the `value` nature of the selections. This system comprises of slightly different rules for chase and hurdle races, although both types of races are utilized in the overall operation of PJ1.

Beaten Favourites

In utilizing beaten favourites last time out the system immediately focuses on horses which were either considered to be the `form` horse in its previous race, or had been made favourite by the weight of money placed (or obviously both.) A horse that won its last race as favourite also meets this criteria, but is generally well backed and starts at considerably lesser odds than a beaten favourite

In the case of hurdlers, the finishing positions in the qualifying last run does not seem to have any great effect on results. i.e.2nd, 3rd, 4th or unplaced. If the horse was favourite in its last race and the trainer runs him within 14 days, he obviously believes he is capable of going well again. Due to the competitive nature of the type of race used, value is obtainable about selections despite their previous finishing position.

In chase races, a marked value advantage was identified in selecting only horses that had finished 4th or worse in its last race. During testing, a similar percentage of winners were identified whether the finishing position as favourite in its last race was in the first three, or 4th or worse (26% winners in both cases.) However, betting beaten favourites placed in the first three last time made a small loss, whereas the horses beaten into 4th place or worse realized a tidy profit when backed next time out. These animals are not so attractive to the average punter, and start at better odds.

The difference between the two types of horses, their finishing positions, and the pattern of winners and starting prices is not one that is easily explained. All I will say is that the pattern has been noted over the past two seasons and should not be ignored.

Within 14 days

By limiting qualifiers to those who were beaten favourites in the last 14 days, the selection has good recent form. As we will be concentrating on handicap chases and hurdles, getting a quick run in before the a horse is re-handicapped is obviously a factor.

Handicaps Only

Initial tests were carried out on all types of races. Using beaten favourites running within 14 day, non handicaps for chasers produced 23% winners and a loss of more than £37 to £1 level stakes. Using handicap chases only, the percentage was less at 18%, but a profit in excess of £10 to the same stakes was realized. A similar picture was found in the case of hurdlers.

The only restriction is to avoid conditional jockeys races. It is hard enough to select a suitable horse, that will jump well, without worrying about the quality of the jockey.

Size of Field

Testing backed up the theory that handicap races with 12 runners or less were more predictable as a betting medium. The number of fallers and errors made increases in proportion to the number of runners in a field.

System Rules

• System operates from 1st November to 30 April.
• From your daily or racing paper, identify all handicap chases and hurdles with 12 or less declared runners. (Ignore conditional jockeys races)
• For hurdle races, identify those runners that were beaten favourites last time out (BF), and that had run within the last 14 days. Finishing position is any, including fell, pulled up etc.
• For chase races, the same rules apply, apart from the fact that the horse must have finished outside the first three on its last run, i.e. 4th, unplaced, fell etc.
• Where there is more than one qualifier in a race, both or all selections are backed.

Staking

It is recommended that level stakes betting is utilized for the operation of PJ1. Having tried numerous staking methods the differences to profits were minimal, and certainly not sufficient to warrant abandoning the safety of level stakes.........

1.    All selections must have run within the last 60 days.
2.    All starting prices MUST fall within the range 9/1 and 14/1 (inclusive)
3.    Where 2 or more horses qualify within the same race the stakes are still kept the same i.e. if you are betting in £20 units, £20 is bet on each horse.

4.    Looking back at the last race (i.e. when the horse ran 5th) make a note of the starting price. The previous SP can move up or down by four points only. For example, a horse whose previous SP was 16/1 can move down a maximum of 4 points, thus anything below 12/1 in the coming race is no bet. If it moved down 2 points it would be 14/1 and qualify as it is within the 9/1 - 14/1 range. Similarly, if the horse was 7/1 last time out it could move to a maximum of 11/1 so effectively you would bet if the SP was 9/1, 10/1 or 11/1. So in practise any horse whose previous price was below 5/1 is ignored and any horse above 16/1. All you have to remember is that for a bet to be on is that the previous price can move up or down by four point and so long as it falls within the given 9-14/1 range. As we stated the system is selective and some days there will be no bets, but as you can see from the enclosed results it is very effective. If a losing run does occur do NOT panic, as with most systems clusters of results easily take care of these, especially if you are betting on high priced horses. If you are unable to see `live` prices simply mark your betting slip with a proviso as follows.
If SP under 9/1 no bet. If SP above (then whatever price has been calculated, but never above 14/1) no bet.

As there are rarely more than two bets a day, this is not a problem as most bookies are happy with this. Try to use more than one bookmaker.
