Dutch Lite Bets


Afternoon card Dutch Frames.

• Just the 3 no Dutch Frames on for today's cards 

*** Movement in some of these markets today. In the 14;30 Plumpton the 4-3 Dutch Frame became a Live Bet (The return cap is <85 on this unbalanced frame format, below the standard. Its hard to put these particular bets up correctly in advance)***

*** 14;40 Ponte Market has loosened and the Dutch Frame increased to 5 runners as a standard Dutch Bet. I took the Bet on as a 'Margin' Bet i.e. with the extra horse edged to break even. I look to do this when the return on the standard bet is anywhere below 55-60 ***

Here is the bet format returning @ 62
Making Margin adjustments or Target Betting runners in the frame obviously doesn't alter the strike rate on the bets. But personally I prefer to keep it pretty limited. You can't beat the markets long term using these across the board. 

• When the market loosens and a larger Dutch Frame is available I take these into the results. They are always remaining Live Bets.
• When the market tightens - reducing the available Dutch Frame - I leave these out of the results.
