BLACKBOOK RUNNERS - WATCHLIST
Kembla Grange, Race 5 #3 SMART LITTLE MISS (10) - R Quinton | Her trial on Aug 18 was super - the 4yo mare dropped to a clear last despite leaving the gates with the field - she worked her way through the field superbly from a very long way last to just finish 2nd, with her work past the line even better as she kept going on with it. Her latest trial on Sep 1 was also slick. She goes from barrier 17 into 10 after scratchings and looks in super order ahead of her return. Backing her here and very happy to take $5+. |

STAKING
How you stake and bet our runners is completely up to you. Everyone takes a different approach to their staking - we know some like to back each runner to profit the same (e.g. profit 10 units for each runner), some back each runner according to our confidence (e.g. 1 unit for low/medium, 2 units for medium, 3 units for high etc.) and many others.
Personally, we follow a system where we bet on the win only (no place) to collect 4% of our bank on every runner. For example, if your starting bank is $10,000, then you will be betting to collect $400 (4%).
If a runner is $2, you will bet $200 @2 to collect $400.
If a runner is $20, you will bet $20 @20 to collect $400.
If a runner is $3.50, you 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):
