    Not saying it never happens....horses stopped and they add a set of blinkers as a ready made excuse, ... but it can backfire if they have an overly positive affect.

    First up Vintage Clouds wasn't a qualifier, the "undefined" turned out to be first run since a wind op.

    So no returns on Day One giving -£30

    Wednesday qualifiers

    Maze Runner 4.50 (first time blinkers)

    Thor De Cerisy 5.30 (first time hood)

    Unless someone knows better, Maze Runner was balloted out of the Fred Winter because the French tit is running his no-hoper.

    Cheekpieces and tongue ties aren't part of the criteria

    Running total -£90, not a single return. We got out of jail on the last day with a 28-1 winner once before, so it's last chance saloon tomorrow or system will record its first ever loss.

    Friday qualifiers

    Pingshou 2.10 (First time blinkers)

    Western Ryder 2.10 (First time blinkers)

    Shantou Flyer 4.10 (First time blinkers)

    Diakali 4.50 (First time visor)

    Regurgitating this

    Profit each year for seven years but made a loss for first time last year.

    To clarify all it involves is backing horses in first time headgear, excluding first time cheekpieces and tongue ties, £5 ew. Will list up qualifiers each day but it's difficult to get accurate returns when some bookmakers do first five,first six whilst others don't so I usually calculate to first three or four where applicable.

    Thursday qualifiers

    Rocket Lad 2.10 First time hood -£10.00

    Poker Play 1.30 First time blinkers -£10.00

    Sire Du Berlais 2.10 First time blinkers Won 10/1 £62.50

    Aso 2.50 First time blinkers -£10.00

    Apple's Jade 3.30 First time blinkers -£10.00

    Ami Desbois 5.30 First time blinkers £-10.00

    Bob Mahler 5.30 First time blinkers £20.00

    Profit £32.50

    No qualifiers tomorrow so a loss of just £7.50this year. Although system has made a profit since we started this was the second year running for a loss so I guess time to put the system to bed now.
