Cheltenham week review

I started the Cheltenham festival 3456.41 down for the month of March so I went into the festival with my head very focused on making profit as well as enjoying the spectacle.  I have finished the week in front for the month to the tune of £1085.99.  I think that is a pretty impressive performance in anybody books.

 

When you factor into this the fact that only 2 favourites won at Cheltenham and there were more surprise results than normal due the weather conditions and changes in running order and the general differences which made form less reliable.  I had no massive priced winner which for me is a disappointment.   My winners were Captian Cee Bee 8/1, Garde Champetre 11/2, Tidal Bay 15/2, Albertas Run 5/1, Denman 2/1, Master Minded 10/3 and Naid de Misselot 15/2.  These were all selected by the Wilkinson system.   Wilkinson weighed in with a healthy £1332.47 from the festival.  It has now passed the 15k mark in just 6 months.  I adding features to tune and also find more opportunities with Irish racing and football.  More sports will be added in the coming weeks.   I have also added 2 new bookmakers to the parser Pagebet and 888sports.

 

My Portfolio profit for the day: -£114.30
My Portfolio profit for the month:  £1085.99
My Portfolio profit for the year: £21907.15

Wilkinson profit for the day: -£114.30
Wilkinson profit for the month (day 29): £3220.15
Wilkinson profit for the year: £15077.94

Cheltenham Festival 2008 is over

The festival is over for another year and it is back to the usual daily routine racing and sports trading to make a living.   I really enjoyed the festival.  In my opinion the weather did really spoil it and I had to keep my stakes to a minimum and use all my skills to ensure a healthy profit.  I will post more on this later this evening when I get all my accounts together.  It has been a profitable week.   I could have done better as usual but on the flip side I could have easily done my brains at Cheltenham.   The Wilkinson system continued to perform well and I have been improving the scalper page to make it friendlier.  I will also being added a few more filter to improve the already awesome strike ratio.  Today I also added Irish racing to the mix due to popular demand.
