Introduction

Hello and welcome to the Lay Maestro. What you have purchased is a lay
betting system which guarantees to increase your profits on Betfair due
to the specific methods which are contained in this manual.

Every single day there are millions of pounds bet on the British Horse
races. Lately, most races are matching over a million each. I’m going to
teach you how to extract just a few hundred of that per day or week –
depending on your schedule!

Let me discuss other laying systems. There are many on the market... but
you see, there is one combined problem with them. They do not focus on
one type of race!

Most laying systems will cross all races and all distances to pick their
winners, but this is not the answer. In order to actually make money on
horses, what you need to do is focus on one specific type of race
“category” per say.

The next criteria which is a massive problem in most systems... are the
ODDS at what you lay at. Laying anything over 4.5 is hazardous in my
opinion. I’ve made the same error countless times when it comes to
laying. I always picked the high odds horses, only for one to come in and
ruin my profits.

So, if you combine focusing on a specific race type as well as the

important factor of low odds horses, you WILL build up a profit, just as I
have been doing for quite a while now using this exact system!

So read on and happy profiting...

Kind Regards

The Betting Exchanges

I'm sure that most of you are already aware of what the Betting
Exchanges involve as well as what they are. If not, the betting exchanges
provide a virtual market place for punters from around the world to bet
against one another in various sporting events. Betting exchanges allow
for the crucial concept of LAY BETTING of which this guide is based on!

The betting exchanges have recently evolved and it all started with the
most popular exchange of them all: Betfair.

One of the most unique characteristics about the exchanges, is that they
allow anybody to bet “in play” and the addition of “lay bets” – allowing
you to bet against a certain event happening, thus putting you in the
shoes of the bookmaker. This refers to betting while an event is going on
which means the odds change accordingly to what is happening to the
event in play.

The betting exchanges allow you to make as much money as you want
due to the fact that they lose nothing! They just take a slice of
commission off of every bet that you win.

This means that the exchanges cannot lose and in turn means they are
very profitable. In light of this – they will never lose out which means
that the betting exchanges will be around for a very long time and enable
you to build your fortune using them as a medium.

Below you’ll find a list of a few of the available exchanges around.

One Last Message...

Before we begin on the important stuff... I would just like to say the
following. Firstly, I don’t like writing systems which are fully padded
with Betfair information...

Obviously the information regarding what lay betting is needs to be

included for the beginners but other than that I try keep it to a
minimum.

The next point I would like to make is that many lay systems out there
are FULL of extra waffle about every specific point on say the racing post
site. They add in as much information as possible to make the E-book
look “full”... This is what I’m NOT going to be doing for this manual.

It’s going to be to the point.

The Lay Maestro system intends to give you the exact information you
require to profit on horse racing.

So let’s begin!
 6

Betfair

I’ve already touched on the betting exchanges, but now I’m going to
briefly discuss Betfair which you all probably know about. Betfair is the
biggest betting exchange on the internet. There are over 1 million
registered users and this base keeps growing

Head on down to www.betfair.com and have a look:

Betfair offers YOU a free £20 if you sign up using this code -

All you need to do is bet about £100’s worth and you’ll receive your free
£20 to do with what you please!

Lay Betting

To put it simply, lay betting puts you in the shoes of the bookmaker. It
basically allows you to bet on an event not to happen and in the case of
this manual you’re betting on a specific horse not to win.

With a lay bet, you have something called liability. This refers to what
you could possibly lose on a bet.

On a typical Betfair screen, the laying column is the pink column.

Take the above screenshot as an example. You’ll notice that the favourite
(With the lowest odds), has odds of 2.72

If you were to lay this horse for say £100, you could potentially lose:

2.72 x £100 = £272 (subtract the stake) = £172. This is known as our
liability. It tells us what we could lose.

This means we could potentially lose £172 if the horse were to WIN the
race. If it does not win we make £100.

With lay betting – you win what you stake.

Say we placed a lay bet on the second favourite in the screen shot. The
odds are at 5.0.

5.0 x £100 = £500. Subtract you £100 stake and you get a liability of
£400 – meaning we could potentially make £100 or lose £400 if it wins.

Your One Resource

This guide only requires one simple resource to make use of the method
and that is of course... The Racing Post web site.

Head on over to www.racingpost.co.uk

Just sign up for an account. It’s free and simple to do.

You’ll notice near the top left “CARDS”.

This is what we’ll be using to view our race cards to find which races are
suitable to bet on.

We can now start with the actual method

 9

Lay Maestro: The Method

Ok, now as already discussed, there are two main problems with Lay
Bets on Horse Racing.

1) Punters are laying at odds which are too high. This manual does not
allow lays over 4.0. It is a bit of a strange number but it works...

Generally odds will fall between 2.xx and 3.xx which gives us such a
minimal loss that you’ll probably make it back on the next bet.

2) Punters will try and lay in any possible race there is. This presents a
big problem because different races have different qualified. Sometimes
a favourite will look very poor (in terms of maybe form...), so punters lay
them and they end up winning. I made these same mistakes!

The Lay Maestro aims to basically pick a short priced favourite,

specifically in maiden races. You may be wondering... why maiden races.
The reason is because the horses in a maiden race... have never won!

The maiden races also always contain horses who have never even run.
Those horses on the day often surprise punters and end up winning even
after being priced extremely high. Maiden races are more often than not
short distances which make the race even more unpredictable.

Now this information alone gives you a good basis for a system. Add that
information to a few other checks that I will teach you just now and you
have one of the most powerful laying systems on Betfair.

I wasn’t joking when I said I was selling this to a maximum of 50 people.

This system has been tested of quite a while now and the success I’ve had
with it has been magnificent.

Browsing Racing Post

What you need to do is go to the Racing Post site. Once you’ve logged in,
you’ll then see the cards. Click on a Race Track.

We’ll click on “Folkstone”. Once you click on it, the list of races will come
up such as below:

You’ll notice the two that I highlighted are the maiden races. So what you
need to do is jot down the various maiden races for the day.
 11

Scanning a Race

What you now need to do now is open up each specific maiden race and
bring up the full card. You also need to open Betfair up at the same time
because you need to check the odds because sometimes the odds
predicted on Racing Post rise and remember 4.0 is our limit!

You’ll notice that there are two possible selections.

Fol Hollow and Guertino

You’ll notice how Guertino has now become the favourite and is trading
at odds of 3.6, while Fol Hollow is trading at 3.7

Below you’ll see a screenshot of the actual race card on Racing Post.
 12

Now the first check you need to do is the horse form. You can locate the
race form in the above screenshot near the top where I have highlighted
the horse “Fol Hollow”.

You’ll notice that the horse’s recent form is 2-2-4

This means in its last race, Fol Hollow came 4th and before then it was
placed 2nd in the previous 2.

Guertino on the other hand has form of 5-2-2

This means he came 2nd in his previous two races.

What you need to do is disregard the horse if he has come 2nd in his
previous race. Anything higher than 2nd and the horse could still qualify
for a potential lay.
 13

The next bit of criteria involves looking at the post data information
regarding the horses.

I’m going to use the above screenshot again and use the postdata area
only.

You’ll see the following columns.

Trainer 1st Time

Trainer Form
Going
Distance
Course
Draw
Ability
Recent Form

Under “Trainer form”... If there are two ticks, the horse needs to be
disregarded immediately. The trainer either needs to have 1 tick or a “x”
or “-“, but not two ticks.

We have 5 more things we need to now look at – Going, Distance,

Course, Ability and Recent Form. (Draw can be disregarded).

Now what we need to do is total up the ticks for each of the above criteria
BUT if there is more than 1 tick for a specific criteria, it still counts as 1
tick.
 14

Let me put this in perspective

A) [Going] contains a ? which means it counts as 0

B) [Distance] contains a tick which means 1
C) [Course] contains a ? so no ticks means 0
D) [Ability] contains 3 ticks. This counts as 1
E) [Recent Form] contains 2 ticks. This counts as 1

In total we have a 0 and 3 x 1’s... This horses total is 3.

What you need to do is look at the other horses in the race. If there are
any horses in the race with the same amount or more ticks, the horse
then qualifies as a lay bet.

Look at the card again – Guertino has a “going” tick. He has an ability
and form tick. Thats 3 in total. Equal to the favourite.

If you look at the other horses there’s in the race, there’s nothing really in
contention other than Guertino.

On the next page I’m going to sum up the rules and then I’ll go through a
the staking plan.
 15

The Rules: Summed Up

First Step is to go to Racing Post and note down all the maiden races on
each of the race cards.

Second Step is to go to Betfair. Note down any of the horses in these

listed maiden races which have odds below 4.0.

Now for the rules:

Rule 1: Check that the horse finished higher than 2nd in its last race.
If there is no listed form for the horse, it’s making its debut and may not
be in contention.
Also if the horse came 2nd in its last race, the horse is no longer in
contention.

Rule 2: The next statistic you need to look at is the “Trainer Form”. If
there are 2 ticks under trainer form for the horse/s in contention, the
horse must then be disregarded.

Rule 3: You need to now go through the remaining 5 criteria which are:

* GOING
* DISTANCE
* COURSE
* ABILITY
* RECENT FORM

If there is a tick or more for a criteria, it gets a 1 and if not it gets a 0.

Once you total up the ticks for the horse in contention, you need to then
compare the amount of ticks for the other horses which are in the race.

If the horse selected as a potential lay has the most “1’s”... then the horse
is out of contention for a lay.
If the horse has the same amount or less 1’s than the other horses in the
race, it is a lay bet!
 16

Bank & Staking Plan

To keep a good bank intact what you need to do is this. I’ve found this
works very well any rarely endangers my bank.

Firstly you need to take the odds at what you are laying at.

Lets pretend we’re laying at odds of 3.00. What you need to do is lay a
maximum of 7.5% of your bank BUT this lay must be you LIABILITY.

To do this, do the following, when you’re about to place your bet, you

Now to calculate what you can afford to lay at:

5 divided by 1oo = 0.075

Take this 0.075 and multiply it by your bank.

Lets say we have a bank of £846.

So 0.05 x £846 = £63.45

This £63.45 is what your liability must be. If you want a quicker way of
working this out, when you’re placing your bet on Betfair, this will
appear on the left.

Let’s say the odds we’re laying at are 2.84.We are laying at £35 which
gives us a liability of 7.5% of our bank, which is £64.40.

To do this quickly, click the “liability” button above the highlighted red
circle and enter the amount.

Betfair automatically calculates it for you!

 17

The Ultimate Staking Plan

A few weeks ago the laying calculator was released onto the market.
Fortunately I was one of the few who was allowed to test it in advance
and I can honestly say I got over 20% more profit.

You have to think about it like this.

Say you make £5000 profit on laying. Had you used something like the
lay calculator for a perfect staking plan, thats an extra 20% profit...
which would be an added £1000!

Very small cost for something which will make you profit more. It’s an
investment that any lay bettor should have!

Final Thoughts

Firstly, I advise paper trading the system for a few days or even weeks to
see what profits you can expect.

Now one thing you need to realise is that due to us laying at odds
UNDER 4.0 and in most cases its 2.xx or 3.xx, you will hit a winner from
time to time but don’t worry.

Due to the fact that liability is so low, the loss is not big at all compared
to most systems where they recommend you lay as high as 10!

If you’re laying at odds of 10, one loss and you need 9 straight losers to
get to breaking even!

The beauty of the Lay Maestro is that if you hit a winner it takes 1 or 2
horses to get back to breaking even or profit.

If you stick to the 7.5% laying liability of your bank you’ll also be laying
at a safe amount.
