Please see below for our #BlackBook runner comments for Friday, 17 February 2023. All #BlackBook runners come from our weekly reviews and our split into two categories - these are are summarised in our "BlackBook Runners - Tips Summary" with our confidence and thoughts.

#5 WHITE BEAR really caught the eye in the blue/white hooped silks in Heat 5 on Jan 13, hard held throughout in a lovely first jump out his preparation. A 3yo gelded son of Shamexpress, he’s had two previous preps of two jump outs as he now returns for his third career prep and moved nicely here.
#5 WHITE BEAR caught the eye from a Jan 13 when finishing behind Fly On Bye (since 3rd in BM70) and he caught the eye again in Heat 13 on Jan 27 but this time for a different reason. In his first jump out he was hard held throughout out the back, whereas in this jump out he was allowed to go forward and given a lot more reign, leading throughout as he cruised to the line to record a soft victory. He’s a nice mover and keen to follow him into his debut.

STAKING
We know that everyone takes a different approach to their staking, which is why we don't delve into specific staking for each of our runners and we leave how you stake and bet our runners completely up to the individual.
Personally, we have followed different staking systems over the years to fine tune our own punting, but have found that the most profitable approach is to follow a "Collect system".
This system means that the punter (us) bets on the win only (no place bet) to collect 4% of our bank on every BlackBook runner we have. To begin, you need to select a starting bank - as an example, a starting bank of $10,000 will see us betting to collect $400 (4%) on each runner.
If a runner is $2, we will bet $200 @2 to collect $400.
If a runner is $20, we will bet $20 @20 to collect $400.
If a runner is $3.50, we will bet ~$114 @3.50 to collect ~$400.
We highly recommend having a read of the below PDF document from Dan O'Sullivan in regard to the Six Rules to Increase Profit, Staking like a Professional and Punting As An Investment (see here):
