The Edge
We all want to be competitive in everything we do. And no more so that with punting on horse racing.
Success in punting on horses, in fact most things reduces down to an information war - the people with the best information make the smart moves.
Books have been and still are the best source of general information, and this applies at least as much in the art of racehorse selection and staking as in any other field.
Author Paul Segar has produced textbooks which cover all aspects of punting. The books alone stand as a complete reference but also provide 'food for thought'. You can develop / improve your own ideas as well as learn some new techniques.
Each book is written in plain English with plenty of practical examples in each chapter. Browse the contents of each book or email for further information, if required.

Sully looks a strong chance in the race, a few big overs following could yield some big multiples
Review:
Sully tried to win the race at the 1200, sadly was only half way. Good to see W Pike get a winner away from his beloved WA...

A few overs at the top could be good based purely on the market
Review:
Another good priced top selection winner for the Ratings Calculator, without doing a single thing.
The fave could be vulnerable in this so the overs could be a possibility
Review:
Got that wrong with the winner now 4 wins over 1600m
26 October 2019
Another big day of Group racing with events from The Valley, Randwick and Ascot.
Races are shown in likely running order...
Tough day's racing, focus on the top picks that are overs.
This race is just added for completeness and won't be counted.
No comment on this race as not counted...
3yo races are tricky at best. Bonvicini on the market is the over.
Review:
Over didn't quite fire running 4th but another top selected saluted, top 4 Q
Nice race with some overs and the top pick a fair wager...
Review:
Missed this one
Villami is probably scratched, top pick is almost an over. All depends how good the face is, small fields are tricky
Review:
Another 3yo event didn't work out
Top selection is an over, another 3yo race.
Review:
Another 3yo event of no result
Top pick is an over, another small field and a 3yo event over a distance, a very tricky combo
Review:
As expected, didn't get this one
Top pick is an over, second up, strong chance
Review:
The Madam did the right thing winning well, no multiples
See if Mr Quickie lives up to his name
Review:
Mr Quickie ran well but couldn't match the import.
Rapido is very short in the market.
Review:
Rapido led and knocked up
Usually a good race for the overs...
Review:
Was a good race for the overs but overs for some other system, not the Ratings Calculator
Big field this year minus Winx, this type of race is often good for overs.
Review:
The Japanese horses are the best for sure, lucky for Winx last year not Lys...
Top pick looks a strong chance.
Review:
The Giri was too strong leading througout
Another 3yo event
Review:
No joy in most of the 3yo races and in the west so far.

Does look a tough race for the fave from barrier 1, could be a good race for the overs...
Review:
Top pick wasn't an over but still another top selection winner. The overs did perform well with a $154 quinella and if you could find the other filly, just over $47K for the first four
