Friday 22nd November
When a Tracker wins and the Tips don't there are always some moans and gripes and yesterday was a similar story.
I think we have made the concept pretty clear and the strength of the Tip Stake and the strength of the Tracker Stake clear based on "confidence and probability".
The results for the tips yesterday (unless you got the "odds to 4th" on Storm Arising) were poor, and in that context 6 points lost.
The Tracker win at 33/1 SP at 1/2 point would have delivered around 20 points profit.
So on the day if Staking instructions following a net profit of 14 points to SP and if you took the 50/1, or even 66/1 as some seem to have got, considerably more.
A pair of Trackers today, one at Ascot and one at Catterick both widely available at double figure Odds of 16/1 and 20/1 respectively at early morning Oddschecker prices at 8.15am
