For the Lead

In answer to your ?s
I use 3/1 or 4/1as my minimum acceptable odds depending on my previous win% as per a 20 race cycle. I set a goal of 60.00 min in winnings for the day an am happy to play 3 or 4 plays. Quitting when min. profit is reached.
My reason for only playing sprints is they are the most predictable and my win % over the last 20 years has always been about 7-10%higher than in routes.
When I look at the entries I am only looking to see 1. how many non maiden races there are. 2. how many horses are entered in each possible playable race.
I like at least 7 or more entries because I get better prices in these fuller fields.
I am only interested in playing a few races per day because I am living on a disability pension and 60.00 per day adds more than enough extra income
to pay my bills. I usually play 5 or 6 days per week and try not to play on Sundays.
Hope this answers your ?
Best of Luck
