Horse Racing Micro Angle
We have four micro angles that you can add to your betting portfolios in today’s article.
The first one focuses on trainer Andrew Balding’s runners in maiden races. Here are the criteria:
Trainer: Andrew Balding
Race Type: Maiden
Class Move: Same
Days Since Last Run: 6 to 30 days
Last Time Out Placing: 2nd
Since 2011 this angle has produced the following results:
32 winners from 50 runners 64% +39% A/E 1.54 39 placed 78%
The second trainer looked at is Michael Appleby and his knack of being able to get a horse that has switched trainers to win first time up in a handicap.
Trainer: Michael Appleby
Race Code: Turf only
Race Type: Handicap only
Runs For Trainer: 0
Odds SP: 20/1 & under
Since the start of 2012 this micro angle has produced the following set of results:
19 winners from 63 runners 30% 115.52 A/E 1.83 28 placed 44% – (Profit to Betfair SP is 161.75)
Mark Johnston’s Newmarket July Festival Angle
Trainer Mark Johnston likes to have a winner or two at the meeting and since 2007 he the top trainer in terms of winners – 14 winners from 98 runners 15% +18.33 A/E 1.25 30 placed 31%. That win strike rate and profit can be improved upon if you focus on his three and four-year old runners that have had plenty of racing in the previous 90 days:
Trainer: Mark Johnston
Horses Age: 3 & 4-year-olds
Runs In 90 Days: 3 to 5
10 winners from 34 runners 29% +58.63 A/E 2.62 17 placed 50%
All but four of his winners in the past 10 years have come from horses with above qualifying criteria. I will be sharing more trainer micro angles with Eyecatcher Pro subscribers over the three days.
James Fanshawe’s Kempton Angle
This week’s micro angle focuses on trainer James Fanshawe’s record in handicaps at Kempton. Since the start of 2012 the trainer has had 44 winners from 192 runners 23% +51.34 A/E 1.19 91 placed 47% but if we look at the horses previous run we can see a big difference in strike rate and profit between those who ran on the all weather and those who ran on turf.:
All Weather LTO – 16 winners from 99 runners 16% -17.57 A/E 0.84 38 placed 38%
Turf LTO – 28 winners from 93 runners 30% +68.91 A/E 1.56 53 placed 57% +86.41
Two weeks ago I gave you an Ed Vaughan micro angle to add to your betting portfolios. Since then the system has provided two selections, with one of then Staintondale Lass winning last week at odds of 8/1.
