    Mine has evolved over the years but it's simple to do. Just needs so relatively simple excel formulae to calculate projected winnings. Other columns can be anything you choose, e.g. ante post, sport, finishing position, Odds backed, s.p etc.
    Im trying to make 1 with a selection column, e/w(yes/no), odds, stake, potential winnings and then outcome and returns. Am I over complicating it because im having difficulty with a getting the potential returns because of e/w terms

      Without the stars you could argue races are more competitive and potentially just as exciting... harder to pick winners though so not sure we'll all be as jolly at the end of it

        You'd need some IF formulas?

          Yeah trying one, stupid excel is moaning that I have too many expressions, got 2 nested IFs inside an if.

            Ryan - when you are done can you post a link to what it looks like, and if you're feeling really helpful could I email you all mine so you can input them all ?
            Sorry, I'm pretty useless with anything techy though I have now mastered texts...

                    I might end up doing that myself but was hoping to get it working even better. Leave it with me...

                        Blimey guys, data bases? Spread sheets?....I remember the good old days of walking down to the bookies to get on my ante posters and actually getting a betting slip and taking it home and putting it with the others tucked into a sock. A couple of days before Cheltenham I would take them all out (when the wife was at work!) and organise them into their running order, otherwise known then as data basing and information correlation!!

                          Its all good with bet slips but with bets spread across several online accounts its easy to lose track of what you have
