did simpson ststem ever make profits?

You ought to do a little research and let us all know.

Edit. Jaq. don't think he means just top weights but top weights who have won up to 10 furlongs who then go on to win there or similar course next time.

Well if it is his Legacy system, was just looking at the claims for 2001 where it claims a profit of £29,000. It also claims just over 50% winner and in smaller print it is to £200 stakes and three horses a day. I work this out roughly as 1040 bets at £200 total outlay £20,800 of which approx half is lost so his £29k must mean that his other 520 winners returned £39k so on my calculator £39k divided by 520 winners = £75 per race/winner Soooo..the returns on each of his winners is £75 for a stake of £200 which I guess means the average winning price is around 4-6.

My brain hurst...going for a whiskey!!

Chester would be a good racecourse to start with, nice round galloping course..horses who like to front run are often very hard to pass and low drawn horses have a distinct advantage here.

Did a little research on this myself and found a 33% strikerate of topweight horses being placed 1st, 2nd or 3rd..

...look forward to some results from other courses..very time consuming hobby but could be profitable..who knows. Jac x

Here are the stats I found, bit dated 2003 but useful info
