Frequently asked questions
What's the difference between the Nap and your top picks?
The top picks are my number-one rated horse in every single race. The Nap is just one of them each day — the single clearest standout, taken at 2/1 or bigger. Backing every top pick isn't profitable, which is why the selective Nap is our flagship pick.
Why isn't backing every top pick profitable?
Because many top-rated horses are short-priced favourites, and favourites as a group don't return a profit at Starting Price even though they win often. The edge comes from being selective about price, which is exactly what the Nap does.
What is a good strike rate for horse racing tips?
Backing favourites and top-rated picks, a win strike rate around 30–35% is normal. On its own that number means little without the odds — a high strike rate at short prices can still lose money — which is why I always show price and ROI alongside it.
How are strike rate and place rate calculated here?
Strike rate is winners divided by the number of picks that got a finishing position (non-runners are excluded). Place rate counts picks that finished within the each-way places for the size of the field.
How many races does this cover?
Every UK and Irish race on the day's cards — often 30 to 60 a day — each with a single top-rated pick, tracked over a rolling 10-day window.
