[AusRace] Weight Angles 3 - using apprentices for profit - a system

[Tony Moffat]

Some results and information. Remember ' Summary: If after application
(deduction) of his allowance the horse now carries less than the limit
weight for the race it can become a selection'

Inverell R4 Win 26.00/5.5
Inverell R5 Loss
Inverell R7 Win 21.50/4.50
Inverell R8 3rd 99.80/20.30
Canberra R7 was a loss ,4th, 37.80,8.70 and revealed an anomaly I didn't
know we had. Apprentices are sometimes unable to claim their full allowance
because of their natural weight compared with the handicap weight of the
horse and this was/was not the problem here. The replay is good to watch
more so because another apprentice (not a contender) tried to steal it but
ran out of horse power -Mickeyrats ridden by Ms Wedrat-Kroezen (a4kg)
Below are links to sites which show the allowances and riding weights in a
few Sates

Subject: [AusRace] Weight Angles 3 - using apprentices for profit - a system


This system was a booklet amongst 15 or more in a box at the Ardlethan
School of Arts on a hot Saturday in the 60's. The books, bric-a-brac
(whatever that is) preserves and scones were for sale to benefit the school.

There were so few apprentices at that time, 4 at most in Sydney, and a few
more than that in other racing Districts in NSW.

Rule 1 Ascertain the riding weight of the apprentice - this was displayed on
a board on course 

Rule 2 If after application of his allowance the horse now carries less than
the limit weight for the race it can become a selection

 Rule 3 It is better if the apprentice has ridden the selection in a race
before today.

Rule 4 The price today must be more than or equal to 16/1 (this was ruled
out in ink in my book and the deletion was initialed).

This is book 3 in a series - I had book 1 also. It cost 7/- (shillings) post
paid

Summary: If after application (deduction) of his allowance the horse now
carries less than the limit weight for the race it can become a selection

Apparently there were only males in the game back then

Cheers

Tony
