Re: Scoop 6, Saturday 3rd May

[Bad Beat]

 I don't fancy Australia or Kingman  in any way shape or form at the current prices in the Guineas. I am involved in a whole bunch of Scoop 6 syndicates. In every single one they have those two selections. If they did not have I would be really fed-up that I gave them my money to bet and if any of them added a 3rd selection at 25/1 there I would be annoyed.

 We have not formed a syndicate to try and pick the winners of the 6 races that represent the best value in the current market at the available prices. We have formed a syndicate to give ourself a better chance of winning the Scoop 6 and getting a share of all that dead-money.

 Surely you can realise Adz that the result of the 1st race is going to prove nothing about the correct way to approach this bet.

 It's about 20/1 that a horse 5/1 or more wins that race. If that happens it will not show that we should have taken a few outsiders so we could win the whole thing alone. It's also about evens that we go out in the first leg. That will prove we suck at flips.

As I said, I wont win regardless.

To repeat, i totally understand the maths objective. I am therefore probably the only person in the syndicate here that didn't realise that we were not really involved in trying to use our racing knowledge edge to find fancies, but to optimise the maths.

 I therefore apologise for my input!
