Two years ago backing the fifteen horses in first time headgear, excluding first time cheekpieces and tongue ties, returned £750 for a £5 each way bet on each one. I can't find last year's figures but I do remember the "system" returned a profit again and the winners included Jezki, Holywell and Western Warhorse.

Wonder if it will pay again ?

Doesn't appear so. I know the system made a profit again anyway but it could have been a really good week, both Shantou Flyer 14/1 and Top Wood 50/1 only beaten a neck into second.

The writing on the Sporting Life site is so faint I could hardly read it; I read b,t for b1...I backed Shantou Flyer at a much bigger price but had backed Top Wood at 25/1 before W Hill offered best odds guaranteed. I assume you only get that on the day. Same applied to Cousin Pete [25/1], who I only backed because I have a cousin called Pete [which may be another system I shall use in future!].
 
Not saying it never happens....horses stopped and they add a set of blinkers as a ready made excuse, ... but it can backfire if they have an overly positive affect.
 
Tuesday qualifiers

Catamaran De Seuil (1st time visor) 2.50

Vintage Clouds (undefined) 2.50 ...never come across that before ?

0 0 Seven (1st time blinkers) 2.50

Beyond The Law (1st time hood) 5.30

First up Vintage Clouds wasn't a qualifier, the "undefined" turned out to be first run since a wind op.

So no returns on Day One giving -£30

Wednesday qualifiers

Maze Runner 4.50 (first time blinkers)

Thor De Cerisy 5.30 (first time hood)
 
Unless someone knows better, Maze Runner was balloted out of the Fred Winter because the French tit is running his no-hoper.
