Four The Win

I’m a big fan of the old ”Keep It Simple Stupid” adage when it comes to horse racing systems, because if a system has too many rules it’s almost certainly been backfitted and if this is the case, it’s highly unlikely that what happened in the past will continue to prove profitable in the future.

That’s a cold hard fact I’m afraid, so if you ever purchase a system and find that it’s practically unworkable in practice because of the number of rules involved, do yourself a favour and treat it with extreme caution. In the vast majority of cases it will save you time, effort and expense.

Someone who agrees with me on this is Joe from Four The Win.

Joe’s created a horse racing laying system that’s based on solid form-based principles, that’s simple in the extreme and that targets runners at the bottom end of the odds range, so unlike many of the laying systems I see nowadays, the odd winner here or there is never going to wipe out your betting bank. It’s a system that highlights runners with a weak profile in races that are competitive enough to warrant taking them on.

This is exactly how bookmakers operate and if it’s your goal to succeed as a betting exchange layer, you could do worse than follow the time-proven principles of traditional bookmaking.

Joe’s system comes packaged in a short, well-written, 16 page ebook that explains everything you need to know clearly and concisely. You’ll know exactly what your selections are likely to be the evening before racing and the rules of the system are all very straightforward.

I’ll be testing Four The Win for the next month with a £1000 starting bank and I’ll be aiming to win £25 on each bet, using a non-aggressive version of the Fibonacci staking plan (as is advised in the book) to recoup losses from winning bets.

The results are posted below and are followed by a glowing review of FTW…

Conclusion

Well, we’ve come to the end of the road for our months test of Four The Win and it’s been a fascinating month. When I first saw the system I was a little sceptical. There are only four simple rules to be followed, and although I could see the logic behind the system, I was a little apprehensive that the system would work at the prices we were laying at. Include a loss recovery staking plan and I had visions of money going down the tube – oh how wrong was I???

I have been astounded by the performance of Four The Win, and I do mean absolutely astounded. In the 30 days of testing we made 16 points profit, and when you consider the average odds we were laying at were evens, and that a large amount of selections were actually odds on, that is simply amazing. We returned a 41.5% profit on our bank, which is a huge ROI and again at the odds is, quite simply, outstanding!

Bare in mind that this is a system that will take you ten minutes a day to find your selections and you have what must be one of the most simple, straightforward, yet ultimately rewarding systems I have seen.

It’s no secret that I’m a big fan of laying, and some of the systems I’ve used in the past have had good success laying at the higher end of the odds market, but at that end you will be laying over the odds and a winner can cause a bit of a dent in your profits, but with Four The Win the odds are almost always within a couple of percent of official SP and often will beat SP because its all hot, hot favourites we’re laying.

So, to sum up, Four The Win is a laying system that lays at an average price of evens, uses a sensible loss recovery plan (which only twice did we go as far as the 3rd bet), has a strike rate in the region of 70% (meaning it will profit at level stakes) and is incredibly easy to operate. Add in the fact that Joe has provided us with excellent customer service, offers a tipping email service, and was only too willing to answer any of our queries and I have no choice but to give Four The Win a very impressive FIVE OUT OF FIVE!

    Hi John,

    The system is incredibly easy to operate, taking only minutes to find the selections.

    I didn’t have Dansimar yesterday as I try to wait until nearer the off before placing my wager, and at the off it was under the 1.7 threshold so I left it alone.

    Ha ha!

    John that made me laugh. It might not be as suicidal as it seems though. Using FTW with 10% bank you will probably be ok.

    Using the aggressive staking plan, if the absolute worst comes to the worst (which hasnt happened yet) and you lose a whole staking cycle of bets, that’s only an average of 11 points loss. Therefore if you used a £1100 bank and £100 stakes you are most likely to get away with it (ok that’s 11% but close!) unless you are very very unlucky and get a losing streak straight away.

    I obviously don’t recommend to do this in the manual however and suggest a 40pt bank to edge on the safe side, however by doing this you will most likely have a very healthy ROI with such little capital put in and judging by your results a 47% gain on your bank in a few days…

    Lovely jubbly!

    Hi Joe,

    I don’t need to tell you how impressed I am with Four The Win. It’s probably the single most impressive selective laying system I’ve ever come across!

    There you go – impressed I am ;-)

    This system I would consider to buy it soon!

    Paul, you are probably right because I have seen all your system testing and showing a lot of good profits under the first month.

    Cheers,

    Jono
