I can't tell if you were asking me.
If you were, they were all win bets. I do not recall how many finished second. I still have some records from the period, but they are in +/- for the day on booked bets. I don't have odds, finish position etc...
Generally I would win large numbers of bets in a row with almost all the horses running terribly. Very occasionally a horse would jump up massively despite a long record of being terrible and I would get nailed hard, but my net was very positive.
One time I was angry because I was having a bad day on my regular bets. I booked a horse for the entire remaining value of my account. A massive duel developed, the horse I booked sat on the rail off the pace, the rail opened, he cut the corner, and he opened up 2-3 lengths at the 1/8th pole. I was dying,
Out of the corner of the screen another horrible longshot appeared out of nowhere and started rallying. I won the bob. Sickest day of my life gambling. Lesson learned without being expensive.
