This is the latest in a series Challenges where the aim is to have a series of place bets using a fixed staking strategy and end up WINNING.

There are a neat total of 50 Shares at $60 each.  Starting bank is therefore $3,000.  (We also have some lose change from the last Challenge.  That is in the Safe.)

There will be a series of 10 bets with a base unit of $6 each/per share.  Base stake per day is thus $300.

Bets will be PLACE ONLY and will usually be on a Wednesday or Saturday or Public Holidays on SE Qld races. I pick the horses, and reserve to right to back more than one horse.

1. For the first 5 bets (#1 to #5), any return from the bet is distributed evenly among the remaining bets, thus increasing the base stake beyond $6.  Say bet #2 gives a return of $16, we add $2 to the stake for each of the remaining 8 bets.

2. For bets #6 to #9, should they be successful we RETAIN THE STAKE, but distribute the PROFITS evenly among the remaining bet/s.

3. Obviously for bet #10 we keep any return.

Start day will be Saturday, provided the weather holds off.

Hopefully we'll end up with a share value of more than $60.  But there's a risk that I will lose a bit, or lose the LOT.

I'll post the bets on this thread, and keep a running sheet.

Bet #1  $300 31.12.11 RETURN = $120 BANK = $2820 [SHARE VALUE = $56.70] [SAFE = $14]
Bet #2  $314 07.01.12 RETURN = $421 BANK = $2927 [SHARE VALUE = $58.80] [SAFE = $14]
Bet #3  $367 10.01.12 RETURN = $656 BANK = $3216 [SHARE VALUE = $64.60] [SAFE = $14]
Bet #4  $461 14.01.12 RETURN = $220 BANK = $2975 [SHARE VALUE = $59.80] [SAFE = $14]
Bet #5  $497 17.01.12 RETURN = $591 BANK = $3069 [SHARE VALUE = $61.60] [SAFE = $14]
Bet #6  $616 01.02.12 RETURN = $657 BANK = $2494 [SHARE VALUE = $62.50] [SAFE = $630]
Bet #7  $626 04.02.12 RETURN = $443 BANK = $1868 [SHARE VALUE = $58.80] [SAFE = $1073]
Bet #8  $624 08.02.12 RETURN = $950 BANK = $1570 [SHARE VALUE = $65.30] [SAFE = $1697]
Bet #9  $785 11.02.12 RETURN = $879 BANK = $879 [SHARE VALUE = $67.20] [SAFE = $2482]
Bet #10 $879 18.02.12 RETURN = $1209 BANK = $0 [SHARE VALUE = $73.80 [SAFE = $3691]

SHAREHOLDERS RECEIVED A DIVIDEND AMOUNTING TO 23%.

PROFIT ON TURNOVER WAS 12.3%

Guys, note that the 2 bets in R2 are subject to a small deduction.

I'll be pleased if that's the worst of our problems.  lol

I do not want to put the mock on and I have not followed them myself but I have noticed when DD ventures into a 2yo race he does well.

He does well in any race but If we could segregate his 2yo selections I reckon he does even better.
