Combination Tricast Betting Strategy A one-off experiment Return £2.50 25/2/25

Note from Coldjack — V17 Review. After a wild ride with Lucky 15s, the experiment has officially closed. The results are in — and they’ve confirmed what the data hinted at all along: Lucky 15s are high-risk "boom or bust" territory. Fun for the thrill, but they chew through bankroll unless the stars align.

I pushed GPT to its limits (both logically and literally!), testing strategies that most punters wouldn't dare simulate, and it delivered some sharp lessons:

"Yankees are the silent assassins. Lucky 15s are fireworks — bright, loud, and mostly miss the mark."

You weren’t wasting your time. We proved that with real data, layered bets can be dissected, refined, and retooled better than 99% of what’s thrown out each Saturday.

Keep the wit sharp and the bets smarter—the universe still owes us all a winning streak! 😆🔥

📝 Critique & Debrief | Dundalk – 28 November 2025

💷 Structured Bets Critique & Learning Points

Actual Betfair Exchange bets (R5 only):

• Royal County Glory – Win @ 8.0, £2 – LOST
• Royal County Glory – 2 TBP @ 4.20, £2 – WON, +£6.40
• Femme Beauty – 3 TBP @ 4.50, £2 – LOST
• Femme Beauty – 4 TBP @ 3.45, £2 – LOST

Total staked: £8.00
Net profit: +£0.40

Race result 19:00 Nursery (6f):
1st Beau Army 7/1
2nd Royal County Glory 3/1 JF
3rd Kc Bear 14/1
4th Luna Beaux 8/1

How the structure lined up with V15:

• V15 Win Pick: Royal County Glory – finished 2nd (good validation).
• V15 Partners: Femme Beauty (unplaced), Luna Beaux (4th).

What went right:

✅ Correct primary target
You built the bet around the right horse. Royal County Glory was the structural hub of the race and ran exactly to the overlay (2nd). Having both WIN and 2 TBP on him meant you still made a small net profit on the race despite the winner being outside the main V15 trio.

✅ Use of place markets
The 2 TBP bet on Royal County Glory was the backbone of the staking – that’s where all the profit came from. This is exactly the “LBS / safety net” logic you’ve been working towards.

What went wrong / room to refine:

⚠️ Over-exposure to Femme Beauty
V15 had Femme Beauty as a big AU number and EW/Combo value, but you gave her two separate place positions (3 TBP and 4 TBP). She didn’t run into the frame; that’s £4 of dead stake. Luna Beaux – who actually finished 4th – carried no place stake despite being a V15 Partner.

⚠️ Thin upside on the win line
Royal County Glory win @ 8.0 for £2 is fine on paper, but given your underlying system is about place solidity then upside, you effectively had:
• £2 on win (high variance, lost)
• £2 on 2 TBP (excellent)
• £4 spread on a Partner (Femme) who simply didn’t show.

A slightly more “V15-pure” staking might have:
• More on RCG place, less on RCG win
• Some place on Luna Beaux instead of doubling Femme Beauty.

Key learning from the actual stakes:

✅ You are very close to the right pattern: Win+Place on the main overlay, supporting place on a Partner.
🔧 The tweak is distribution: reduce duplicated speculative positions on one Partner (Femme) and re-allocate towards:
• More robust place coverage on the Win Pick, and/or
• A small place stake on the second Partner (Luna Beaux).

Net result: tiny green figure, but good process – the structure saved the “wrong” winner scenario.

🏁 Race-by-Race Breakdown

R1 – 16:50 Claiming (7f)
V15: Win Pick Coincidental Glory; Partners Profit Centre, Enthusiastically; Caution Manifest Destiny.
Result: Don’t Get Me Wrong 1st (13/2), Coincidental Glory 2nd, Pivotal Terms 3rd, Enthusiastically 4th.

• The race was shaped by V15’s main band – Coincidental Glory and Enthusiastically both in the frame.
• Don’t Get Me Wrong, a low-point AU value runner, stepped up and won.
Takeaway: AU value runners outside the top three can still be “forecast-important” and need a clearer tagging as pressure runners rather than being left as background noise.

R2 – 17:25 Apprentice Hcp (5f)
V15: Win Pick Hasiyna; Partners Just Jump, Masked Angel; Caution Arctic Steps.
Result: Arctic Steps 1st (12/1), Hasiyna 2nd, Turn Up The Beat 3rd, Just Jump 4th.

• The exacta and places were entirely V15 zone – Hasiyna, Just Jump, Turn Up The Beat were all structurally live.
• The winner came from your Caution bin: Arctic Steps, who responded to cheekpieces and a strong ride from a good draw.
Takeaway: dual-flag horses (cold yard + inconsistent form) can’t be auto-downgraded when a recent gear/track change plus price say “this might be the day.”

R3 – 18:00 Fillies Maiden (1m)
V15: Win Pick Beijinho; Partners Angelight, Indigo Dream; Caution Minaun View.
Result: Angelight 1st (11/4), Pretty Omagh Girl 2nd, Indigo Dream 3rd, Minaun View 4th, Beijinho 7th (7/4 fav).

• The race was dominated by the V15/Timeform/market trio – Angelight, Indigo Dream, Beijinho – plus one improver (Pretty Omagh Girl).
• Structurally, you were 100% in the correct group; hierarchy was wrong. Beijinho was made too strong a favourite versus two higher-rated, more proven rivals.
Takeaway: when unrated/stable-switch types sit beside OR 77/85 fillies, the rated pair need at least co-anchor status.

R4 – 18:30 EBF Fillies Maiden (6f)
V15: Win Pick Glen And Tonic; Partners Daring Grace, Innumerable; Caution Girl Is On Fire.
Result: Innumerable 1st (10/1), Velvet Reign 2nd (16/1), Wearing Stars 3rd (10/1), Great Plains Lady 4th (15/2).

• The winner and key placed horses all came from within the V15 overlay band.
• Glen And Tonic underperformed; the race “chose” the value side of the same structural band (Innumerable) instead.
Takeaway: when a favourite and a double-digit runner share the same top-tier overlay, adopt co-anchoring rather than elevating only the short one.

R5 – 19:00 Nursery (6f) – your bet race
V15: Win Pick Royal County Glory; Partners Femme Beauty, Luna Beaux; Caution Mr Kobe.
Result: Beau Army 1st (7/1), Royal County Glory 2nd, Kc Bear 3rd, Luna Beaux 4th.

• V15 correctly faded Mr Kobe (fav), and Royal County Glory ran a huge race for 2nd, Luna Beaux shaped well in 4th.
• Beau Army – an improver with strong closing effort LTO – came from just outside the core overlay focus.
Takeaway: your real bets aligned well with V15; the only misallocation was doubling up on Femme Beauty instead of recognising Beau Army’s “strong finisher” profile or backing Luna Beaux for place.

R6 – 19:30 Handicap (6f)
V15: Win Pick Collective Power; Partners Clonmacash, Never Shout Never; Caution Nikki Swango.
Result: Collective Power 1st (7/1), Nikki Swango 2nd, Tai Tam Bay 3rd, Tomarlo 4th.

• Clean validation race: Win Pick scores at a good price; the caution horse runs well but doesn’t win; other placed horses were within the pre-identified competitive band.
Takeaway: this is how V15 is supposed to look – structure identifies the right hub, manages favourite risk, and gives natural forecast scaffolding.

R7 – 20:00 Casino Handicap (2m)
V15: Win Pick Gaucher; Partners Bryant, Jerandme; caution Cornelienne.
Result: Bryant 1st (3/1), Gentleman Joe 2nd, Jerandme 3rd (20/1), Gaucher 4th (2/1 fav).

• Both Partners hit the frame (1st and 3rd), with Gaucher a solid 4th.
• The trifecta was almost exactly the V15 partner cluster.
Takeaway: AU dominance of Gaucher was real, but the race shows why Partners must be thought of as genuine co-chances, not afterthoughts.

R8 – 20:30 Irishinjuredjockeys.com Handicap (1m2½f)
V15: Win Pick Cherry Pink; Partners Autocrat, Tribal Moon; Caution Fixation.
Result: Fixation 1st (5/4 fav), Tribal Moon 2nd, Moyassr 3rd, Theophilos 4th.

• Partners and AU-band runners filled the places: Tribal Moon, Moyassr, Theophilos all belonged to the structural group.
• Caution-marked Fixation won decisively, showing AU alone had underweighted the Murtagh placement/OR/headgear pattern.
Takeaway: when stable, OR, placement and market are all screaming “this is the right horse,” a weak AU line shouldn’t drive a full Caution flag; at minimum, that’s co-anchor territory.

📉 Cumulative Outcome Analysis

Actual staking outcome (R5):
• Staked: £8.00
• Returned: £8.40
• Net: +£0.40 (approx +5% ROI)

For a single-race micro-system, that’s a small but positive return created entirely by correct Win Pick + place market usage.

Model outcome (across the card, structurally):

• Win Picks:
– Clear hit: Collective Power (R6).
– Strong “ran to overlay but beaten”: Coincidental Glory (R1), Hasiyna (R2), Royal County Glory (R5), Gaucher (R7), Cherry Pink (R8) to a lesser extent.
– Notably wrong: Beijinho (R3), Glen And Tonic (R4).

• Partners / EW value:
– Winners from Partner/value band:
– Innumerable (R4)
– Bryant (R7)
– Repeated frame hits from combo runners (Angelight, Indigo Dream, Luna Beaux, Tribal Moon, etc.).

• Caution markers:
– Successful negatives: Manifest Destiny, Mr Kobe, Cornelienne.
– Over-cautioned winners: Arctic Steps, Fixation.
– “Scary rag”: Minaun View, who outran her price and justified being watched, not buried.

Overall:
• Architecture of the card was read very well – in most races the result lived inside the V15 bands or just outside them via understandable improvers.
• Main weaknesses: overcooking a couple of Caution calls and over-simplifying Win Pick vs Partner hierarchy in tight bands.

🔧 Model Reflection & Refinement Notes

  1. Place-priority staking on main overlay
    • Your R5 staking shows the right instinct: strong place position on the key overlay runner.
    • Refinement: systematically favour place-first, win-second on high-fig runners like Royal County Glory, especially in big fields and nurseries.

  2. Partner stake distribution
    • Avoid double-coverage on one Partner (Femme Beauty) at the expense of the other (Luna Beaux).
    • Rule of thumb: if two Partners are level in AU/overlay, they get similar exposure, or the one with more progressive profile gets the nod.

  3. Co-anchor logic
    • R3, R4, R7 highlight the need for formal “co-anchor” handling: when multiple runners share the same top-tier band, don’t force an artificial single king.
    • For your own betting, that means you don’t have to marry one horse when the data clearly says “it’s these two/three.”

  4. Caution severity
    • Split Caution into:
    – “Soft Caution”: watch carefully, still a live player (e.g. high-profile fav with some question marks).
    – “Hard Caution”: only to be used when AU, form, stable, and placement all disagree with the price.
    • Arctic Steps and Fixation should likely have been Soft, not Hard.

  5. Bets aligned with blog structure
    • Tonight’s R5 staking was far closer to the V15 approach than the random Yankee you accidentally pasted – and the result shows it.
    • Next step is to let this same logic bleed into more races: Win Pick + Partner(s) with place emphasis and Caution management, rather than bolt-on fun bets.

🧾 V15 Signature (Override Edition)

V15 EARLY DOORS – VALIDATION & TRUST LAYER
DUNDALK – FRIDAY 28 NOVEMBER 2025

(This layer sits under the full card forecasts as a structural audit, not a tip rewrite.)

TOP JOCKEYS & TRAINERS

✅ Hot jockey inclusions (15%+ SR last month) are present in overlay runners:
• J A Orr – on Cherry Pink (R8 Win Pick); hot jockey integrated as a primary overlay asset.
• Julian Pietropaolo – on Royal County Glory (R5 Win Pick) and Dont Get Me Wrong/Carmina Burana (AU mentions); included where AU supports, not blindly followed.
• Shane Foley – on Profit Centre (R1 Forecast Partner), Angelight (R3 Forecast Partner), Gaucher (R7 Win Pick); strong Smart Stat/jockey heat aligned with overlays.
• Daniel King – on Alphonse Le Grande (R7 top earner, not a headline overlay runner); kept in supporting role only.

⚠️ Cold jockeys (losing runs) only used with structural caution:
• Wesley Joyce – on California Baby (headgear, drop in grade); excluded from main overlays.
• James Ryan – cold in Smart Stats; no presence on key overlay horses in the card as built.
• Sam Coen – cold, yet on Just Jump (R2 Forecast Partner); inclusion justified purely by AU and pace map, not by jockey; caution remains in place.
• Robbie Colgan – cold, on Tell Me This and Shanroe; no elevation in overlays beyond structural references.

✅ Hot trainers integrated:
• W P Mullins – Gaucher (R7 Win Pick, huge AU 16pts); direct Smart Stat support.
• Donnacha O’Brien – Enthusiastically (R1 Forecast Partner); yard in form and reflected structurally.
• G M Lyons – Cosmic Motion (R1 AU mention); respected in AU but not forced into headline role.
• W Durkan – Cherry Pink (R8 Win Pick, hot trainer + hot jockey combo).
• Others (Marnane, Daniel Murphy, N Lupini, etc.) appear in places but are only promoted where AU/figs agree.

⚠️ Cold trainers held at arm’s length:
• Michael G Cleary – trains Mark’s One (R2 headgear, low AU, no promotion).
• Paul Mulligan – trains Arctic Steps (R2 Caution Marker).
• N Slevin – Celtic Priestess (R3, no overlay promotion).
• D W O’Sullivan – Cliadh Dubh (R5 headgear; not elevated to core overlay runner).

BEATEN FAVOURITE (LTO) RUNNERS

✅ Overlay runners that were BF LTO:
• Coincidental Glory (R1 Win Pick, BF LTO) – retained as Win Pick, but supported by AU top and drop in grade notes rather than BF emotion.
• Enthusiastically (R1 Forecast Partner, BF LTO) – partner only, not anchor; structure keeps her in combo but not model centre.
• Angelight (R3 Forecast Partner, BF LTO) – used as partner, secondary to Beijinho’s stable-switch angle.
• Beijinho (R3 Win Pick, BF LTO) – Win Pick status justified via AU + stable switch + smart gear use.
• Girl Is On Fire (R4 Caution Marker, BF LTO) – specifically neutralised despite BF tag; caution applied.
• Never Shout Never (R6 Forecast Partner & EW value, BF LTO) – included via AU and top-earner status, but not elevated to Win Pick.
• Tai Tam Bay (R6 market horse, BF LTO) – referenced only in stats; overlay keeps him outside the main structure.
• Moyassr (R8 AU value mention, BF LTO) – present in AU band but not promoted beyond support level.

✅ Bounce is never assumed; BF status is only a factual overlay input. Inclusion or caution is always driven by AU/fig + market structure, not narrative.

CLASS DROPPERS

✅ Only class moves explicitly identified in the form guide are acknowledged:
• Coincidental Glory – “this drop in grade may suit”; aligned with AU top and Win Pick status.
• Cosmic Motion – “respected on this drop in grade”; kept as AU mention, not forced into headline role.
• Pivotal Terms – “this drop in grade is needed”; remains outside primary overlay structure (no upgrade without AU support).
• Fortis Puer, Manifest Destiny – “needs this drop in grade” / “considered at this level”; Manifest Destiny is actually a cautioned runner in R1 summary despite the drop.

❌ No unlisted “possible” class droppers are invented. If the text doesn’t say it, it isn’t claimed.

STABLE SWITCHERS

🔁 Stable switch list (from Smart Stats):
• Beijinho – A Murray ➜ Robson Aguiar (R3 Win Pick; switch is a core overlay trigger).
• Tell Me This – R O’Sullivan ➜ A Kinirons (R3 runner, headgear; no promotion beyond structural mention).
• Never Shout Never – Stephen Thorne ➜ A McNamara (R6 Forecast Partner & EW value; switch acknowledged but AU controls the role).
• Tommy McJohn – Aidan Melia ➜ Ciaran Murphy (R6 runner; kept outside main structure).
• Cornelienne – C Ferland ➜ J P O’Brien (R7 top-earner; treated with stamina caution).
• Gaucher – C Laffon-Parias ➜ W P Mullins (R7 Win Pick; stable switch + WPM + AU 16pts = big positive overlay anchor).
• Fixation – N Stokes ➜ J P Murtagh (R8 market fav; becomes Caution Marker due to zero AU presence).
• Tribal Moon – Daniel Murphy ➜ N C Kelly (R8 Forecast Partner; switch dovetails with headgear + AU support).

✅ Stable switches are only upgraded when AU and gear/form support them (Beijinho, Gaucher, Tribal Moon).
⚠️ When switch is not supported by AU (Fixation), runner is explicitly cautioned even if favourite.

WEIGHTED TO WIN RUNNERS

Weighted-to-win list:
• Hasiyna – 49 ➜ 44 (R2 Win Pick; overlay fully embraces the rating edge).
• Never Shout Never – 73 ➜ 69 (R6 Forecast Partner; value inclusion, not anchor).
• Collective Power – 82 ➜ 75 (R6 Win Pick; weighted-to-win + AU top band + top earner list).
• Star Mind – 70 ➜ 67 (R8 AU value band, not a headline overlay runner).
• Autocrat – 73 ➜ 67 (R8 Forecast Partner; flagged as EW/Combo value).
• Benavente – 78 ➜ 69 (R8 AU band, kept as supporting value rather than primary).

✅ Every weighted-to-win runner is either explicitly included (Hasiyna, Collective Power, Autocrat, Never Shout Never) or left at value-support level with no artificial promotion.

FAVOURITE STRIKE RATE (TRACK)

📊 Dundalk 12-month favourite SR:
• 144 wins / 792 runs = 18.2%

✅ Overlay deliberately diverges from favourites where structure demands:
• Mr Kobe (R5) – Fav but only 2 AU points; marked as Caution.
• Nikki Swango (R6) – Short in market but only mid AU; Caution Marker.
• Fixation (R8) – Market favourite with no AU presence; strong Caution Marker.
✅ Where favourite and overlay agree (Glen And Tonic, Gaucher), that alignment is explicitly embraced and not faded for the sake of “being clever”.

HEADGEAR FLAGS

Headgear runners inside overlay structure:
• Coincidental Glory – Hood (R1 Win Pick).
• Enthusiastically – Blinkers + Hood (R1 Forecast Partner).
• Profit Centre – Blinkers + Tongue Strap (R1 Forecast Partner).

✅ Headgear is treated as a structural flag only when supported by AU/fig and Smart Stat context (e.g. Gaucher, Cherry Pink, Royal County Glory).
⚠️ Runners where headgear is the main angle but AU does not agree remain in secondary or caution roles (Manifest Destiny, Mr Kobe-adjacent headgear types, Fixation’s race context, etc.).
❌ No “first-time headgear magic” is assumed where it is not explicitly justified by overlay data.

DUAL-FLAG RUNNERS

Dual-flag = at least two of: cold yard, cold jockey, BF LTO hype, market-only support, stamina doubt, or gear concern.

⚠️ Dual-flagged with Caution:
• Arctic Steps – Cold trainer + headgear + out-of-form; only low-tier AU mention and explicitly Caution.
• Manifest Destiny – Class-drop language but weak figs + gear reliance; Caution Marker in R1.
• Girl Is On Fire – BF LTO + caution; AU/market misalignment; not used in core structure.
• Mr Kobe – Favourite + low AU + nursery volatility; Caution Marker in R5.
• Nikki Swango – Short price + only mid AU + sprint profile pressure; Caution Marker in R6.
• Cornelienne – Stable switch + stamina question at 2m + only AU 3; marked caution in R7.
• Fixation – Stable switch + favourite + zero AU presence; strong Caution Marker in R8.
• Minaun View – AU top but market drift + trip demand; downgraded to Caution Marker rather than promoted on AU alone.

✅ No runner with dual caution triggers is given Win Pick or Anchor status.

OVERLAY LAYER CONFIRMATION

✅ AU figs vs Win Picks:
• All Win Picks (Coincidental Glory, Hasiyna, Beijinho, Glen And Tonic, Royal County Glory, Collective Power, Gaucher, Cherry Pink) sit in top or near-top AU bands or have explicit overlay triggers (stable switch, weighted-to-win, headgear/stable pattern) that justify them.

✅ Smart Stats vs Overlays:
• Hot jockeys and trainers are used where AU agrees (Shane Foley, J A Orr, Donnacha O’Brien, W P Mullins, W Durkan) and not blindly chased.
• Cold stables/jockeys (Paul Mulligan, Michael G Cleary, Sam Coen, Robbie Colgan, Wesley Joyce) appear mainly in caution roles or as secondary partners only when AU insists (Just Jump).

✅ Market vs Overlay:
• Favourites opposed when overlay demands (Mr Kobe, Nikki Swango, Fixation) based on AU weakness or structural concerns.
• Favourites embraced when structure agrees (Glen And Tonic, Gaucher, Cherry Pink’s price band, Coincidental Glory).

✅ Form figs vs Headgear vs Stable Switchers:
• Positive combinations: Gaucher, Cherry Pink, Royal County Glory, Beijinho, Autocrat, Tribal Moon – all headgear/switch angles backed by AU/form.
• Negative combinations: Manifest Destiny, Fixation, some cold-yard/headgear runners – explicitly marked caution or left outside main overlays.

✅ No assumption logic:
• Every flag, inclusion, or caution is tied back to at least one hard layer: AU score, Smart Stat, headgear list, stable switch list, beaten favourite list, weighted-to-win list, or track favourite SR.

V15 Conclusion:
✅ Structural integrity intact
✅ Smart Stats and AU layers cross-checked
✅ Market favourites challenged only when overlay demands
✅ No narrative drift, no hindsight, no bounce storytelling – just the pre-race truth.

Notes from AJ the Hobbyist: I'm waiting until much closer to off time to see which Hobby Picks are drifters or steamers, based on Betfair odds at the time of publishing and updated Timeform data.

Key Reminders:
Parading: Look for calm, focused horses with a good walk—avoid those sweating excessively or agitated.
Going Down: Smooth, controlled canter = positive. Overly keen or reluctant = caution.
At the Post: Composed behaviour signals readiness; restlessness, rearing, or sweating could be negatives.
Odds Market Sentiment:
Steamers (shortening odds): Positive market confidence, but watch for overbet favourites.
Drifters (lengthening odds): Could signal trainer/jockey concerns—or just market overreaction, offering value.
Keep emotions out—trust the data, the visuals, and the odds shifts. 🎯

We’re trialling this approach across UK, Irish, Aussie and U.S. horse racing to see where it offers the most value. Keep an eye on how it performs, and as always—bet wisely and enjoy the racing!🏇🔥

🧾 EARLY DOORS & M37cal GLOSSARY

📘 UPDATED GLOSSARY – EARLY DOORS & M37cal SYSTEMS (Incl. V15 Model)

What do all these ratings mean? Here’s your decoded glossary with all V15 Early Doors additions and tactical terminology explained.

📊 Core Rating Terms

  • 12M – Performance over the last 12 months

  • $L12M – 12-month performance, adjusted for prize money/stake yield

  • SR – Strike Rate (win percentage)

  • Career SR – Lifetime win percentage

  • For/Against – Model strength rating versus the rest of the field


⚙️ Fig & Model Dynamics

  • Overlay – A fig-positive runner trading at above model-implied odds (value)

  • Fig Stack – Total model score across all rating vectors (includes pace, surface, draw, market etc.)

  • Chaos Fig – Runner scoring on figs but with unreliable profile or poor tactical fit

  • Banker – Fig leader + tactical edge + supported in live market


🔥 Market Signals

  • Steam – Odds shortening pre-race (positive market signal)

  • Drift – Odds lengthening pre-race (often negative, unless fig-backed)

  • Market Tension – A horse the model rates highly, but the market doesn’t (or vice versa)


🧠 Tactical Flags

  • Pace Cluster – Multiple horses vying for the lead; can cause collapses

  • Slipstream Draw – Favoured position behind early speed; ideal for late closers

  • Surge – Exceptional late-race acceleration; fig that often wins with timing

  • Fig Tension – 3+ horses rated closely; outcome risk increases

  • Value Chaos – Race where many overlays exist but fig margins are tight; potentially lucrative, but volatile


🟢 NEW: V15 EARLY DOORS MODEL TERMINOLOGY

  • V15-S (Swinger Forecast) – Structured 3-horse bet per race:
    Anchor = Primary fig/tactical pick
    Partners = Two supportive selections with place/forecast value

  • Forecast Combo – Straight forecast recommendations using top model picks

  • Tactical Forecast – Overall read of race shape: lead types, closers, bias implications

  • Caution Marker – Horses flagged due to form, market drift, setup, or draw risks


🧠 M37cal-Only Concepts (Long-game angles)

  • Fig Strain – A top-rated runner showing deeper profile weaknesses (trip, surface, tempo)

  • Game Tree Tension – Race scenario with 2+ potential tactical outcomes

  • Board Flip – One disruptive runner could reshape the whole race logic

  • Not-Now Horse – Potential improver, but wrong setup today


➕ Summary Tags:

  • Early Doors = Tactical, lean, structured bets from full-field fig logic

  • Move 37cal = Deeper seasonal/tactical projection based on long-game intuition and game theory overlays
