S.B.B.S Weekend 1


Gallop magazine publishes quarterly booklets called " Data Files". In volume 24 of the 2005 calender, a piece of statistical information caught my eye. The article pointed out that horses were more likely to win back to back races in the proceeding months of June/ July and July/August respectively. The reasons: Persistent off tracks favors the same horses. Many horses prefer running in the hot/humid conditions. There is a sub-par talent group as many quality horses sit out the summer. Quality dirt horses opt to run at the local tracks during the summer. Regardless of the reasons it gave me an idea to try through out this summer. From now until the end of August, I'm going to play the main races only and target horses that are coming off a win in their previous race.
Sounds simple enough and it gives me a reason not too overly ex cert myself in and otherwise cooling down period of my handicapping season. Hence the S.B.B.S ( Summers Back To Back Strategy) begins...

Hakodate 9th race #10 with 2,4,6,9,12 ¥1000 Quinellas
Fukushima 11 Race.Abukuma Stakes..N/A
