According to a recent MORI poll, dear reader, eight out of ten cat owners (who expressed a preference) said their cats preferred Whiskers.
Surveys can be quite interesting things. I am truly surprised at your feedback, which is both flattering and instructive.
I’d like to share some of the details with you, if I may.
400 of you (well, 399 as I write) were kind enough to respond, the first 100 of you qualifying for the prize draw (winners below)…

Sincerely, thanks a million for this feedback, which will now go to shape the future of how Nag3 looks. I want it to give you what you want it to give you… if that makes sense!
By the way, one thing that really surprised me was that a whopping 78% of you want to see more system reviews here. That in itself didn’t surprise me, but I’m guessing that many of that number were not aware that the page entitled ‘Premium Systems’ contains links to the reviews of those products, all of which were trialled here on the blog!
If you didn’t know that, feel free to check that page out. And be assured, there will be more reviews to come.
Prize draw winners are as follows:

If you have already purchased TFS, send me your receipt and I’ll refund you. Hopefully that doesn’t apply to all of you!! ;o)
Thank you again again for taking time out to do this: I will take some time over the weekend to review your individual comments, many of which have warmed me far more than the following has cooled me….
According to Christian mythology, dear reader, the Holy Grail was the dish, plate, or cup used by Jesus at the Last Supper, said to possess miraculous powers.
It’s also the name of a racing system / service provider on the internet. This is what they had to say about TFS today:
TrainerFlatStats System…if you are getting inundated with emails
from people promoting this like I am…with the usual “only a few
copies left” ploy…yeah right!!…you can save your money. If you are
a subscriber on May 1st I will tell you where you can download it for
free. It’s nothing more than stats for every racecourse that you could
find for yourself on any decent racing site and the results are HEAVILY
backfitted to include many big priced winners.
As well as preparing to instruct my lawyers (pending a full retraction of the above to the same list as were sent this), I feel a little qualification is required.
1. TFS sales page will come down on Sunday evening / Monday morning. No if’s or but’s. No marketing strategy. I’m extremely disappointed with the reaction of some myopic luddites who fear collaboration and prefer to defame or libel (even with the legal implications of so doing).
2. You cannot find the stats ANYwhere else, because I spend between four and six weeks each season researching them, and using criteria that nobody else uses (i.e. males only, 14/1 price threshold).
3. Backfitting…. Hmm, now this is trickier, as all statistic based systems are predicated on the belief that history will repeat itself. However, to mitigate the dangers associated with this, and also in some cases to insure against the smaller than ideal sam
ple sizes, I always ask myself if there is a logical reason to the trend. If I don’t believe that, it doesn’t make the cut. And the stats have made very tidy profits.
Enough already. I am growing very tired of the back biting. Hence, TFS guide will not be available after the weekend. [Note, the subscription service will continue and will be the only way you can get involved, should you wish.]
Having been infuriated by these individuals, I googled Holy Grail, and was somewhat delighted to be presented with a bunch of links to youtube clips of the marvellous Monty Python movie, one of which is below. (This is especially pertinent if you live in the Smoke, and are contemplating which of the inept candidates to vote for…)
Happy Friday, and Good Weekend to you!
