Every published selection will stay on the record, with its original price and publication time. We’ll add the outcome afterwards, including losses, scratches and refunds.
No selections or results published yet. Results will use a flat 1-unit win stake per selection at the published odds. Units are a reporting measure, independent of the amount anyone chooses to stake. A winner at decimal odds of 3.50 returns 3.5 units, including the stake, for a profit of +2.5 units. A losing selection records −1 unit. Scratches will be shown as refunds; any deductions will be recorded. Strike rate and ROI will appear once there are settled selections.
The weekly archive begins with our first published card.
Each card will show the horse, runner number, track, race number and time, published price, price source, publication timestamp, finishing position, return in units and net profit or loss in units.
Honest Albert’s is named in memory of Albert, from Adlington, Lancashire, in the North of England.
Before the internet, there was the pub, a landline and Albert helping people get their bets on. He had an eye for a small commission and the kind of character you remember long after the afternoon is over.
Albert always had his pick—or picks—of the day, and he would share them with anyone willing to listen. Honest Albert’s carries on that tradition: a love of racing, a few considered selections and plenty to talk about on a Saturday.
This is a tribute to him: a little of his spirit, with plenty of homework and an honest record of what happens next.
