Jockey Challenges

At the end of the day (I actually hate that saying - but anyway - lol) - I do JC pure and simply for fun and entertainment - winning is a bonus. So if I'm going to win I'd rather it be more than less.

However - in saying that - today is not looking too crash hot

Certainly. I'm talking hypothetically, of course.

Although I don't go in the JC, I enjoy following the results of those who do on here.

Maybe I'll join in when I get more time.

I think from looking at JCs and my limited betting experience that VALUE is actually your personal rating of that selection.

I think shopping around and getting the best price possible is also a part of VALUE.

And as A MUM has mentioned there has been many a day where a short priced jockey has lost.

Yep correct TE

Hence I do better on 'slower' tracks because I look at the horse and it may not necesarily have been 'given a chance' by tipsters or markets etc - but it say has ran 4th-5th on a slow track - and if I'm looking at a slow track I then rate that horse and give it a chance. If that makes sense..lol.

Also with JC quite often jockey's can 'pick up' unexpected rides.

The best value is often when you catch the betting agency 'napping'.
So a jockey may pick up some rides before the agency realises - this doesn't happen that often - but it's good times when it does..lol.

Anyway - we call it a rollercoaster ride for good reason..lol.
But it's all good fun and you don't have to outlay much.

Gets a few of us through our boring work day

Any JCers out there today?

newitt being beaten on a $1.30 favorite keeps werribee open
