Good morning...
After a great weekend off...
I am going all out today to get the Builder installed on EarlyBird Ratings.
Obviously this will only work for the early ratings (Focus Ratings members can access these via the new Builder Plus) but it may help with strategies for Early Bird members.
At the same time I shall be taking a look at the Diamonds and Gold strategy.
Every systematical approach to betting should be audited every now and again and I think that the time has come for this to happen for Diamonds and Gold.
Perhaps the Builder will help me identify some tweaks to make Diamonds and Gold more consistent.
Focus Ratings

Here are the results in the Traffic Light Results PDF format... Yesterday's Traffic Light Results
