Jockey/Trainer Handicapping Profit

[bobhilo]

Aloha,

Do you database guys find that a positive ROI can be made....

by combining just the jockey and the trainer?

just checking back a 10 day span at CD I have seen a profitable angle(short term probably)

but can you do it over a span of a year or more?

Absolutely. Take Ned Allard/Harry Vega, whom I mentioned on the other thread. Stats are for NY/NJ/PHA/MD/DEL/VA from 01/01/2002 - Present

Allard / All Riders (Starts Wins Place $2ROI)
All races 794 166 116 $1.71
Sprints 452 93 72 $1.69
Routes 342 73 44 $1.75

Allard / Vega
All races 167 50 19 $2.52
Sprints 72 20 8 $2.28
Routes 95 30 11 $2.70

Pletcher/JohnV show a $2.01 ROI for over 1000 races, but $2.30 on turf from 282 races. Too many possibilities, many better than these.

Even more instructive might be knowing which riders never win for certain barns.

this can be much more valuable info in the long run.
