Yo,
“That horse nearly DOB’d.”
Dangerous sentence.
Because now you’ve seen something.
Maybe it traded lower than BSP.
Maybe it got close to half its price.
Maybe it travelled well for a bit
then remembered it was supposed
to ruin your afternoon.
Classic horse behaviour.
The problem is nearly can mean
two very different things.
It can mean there’s a real pattern
that needs better filters.
Or it can mean you’ve found
one race that looked interesting.
Those are not the same thing.
One is an angle.
The other is a story.
And horse racing is full of stories.
That’s why you need to test
the “nearly”.
How often did it get close?
Which runners did it happen with?
Was it stronger at certain odds?
Did race type matter?
Did field size matter?
That’s where the edge usually
starts to show itself.
LightSpeed helps you test those
questions without turning your
evening into spreadsheet archaeology.
Go here and you’ll see how
LightSpeed helps you find out
whether your “nearly” is actually
worth tracking:

P.S. Spreadsheet archaeology
does not count as a hobby
