Hi, please forgive me for this suggestion, being the new boy on the block so to speak, I may be talking out of place.
However, probably stating the obvious, I'm sure you are all aware, the SCOOP6 is very hard to win.
It did occur to me that only having 48 lines each week, it is almost an impossible task (sorry if that sounds pessimistic) as the Tote generally pick the 6 most competitive races. So there are no real "bankers" or "short priced favourites.
It occurred to me, that whilst we have limited money in the pool, that the Jackpot would be an "easier target".
We could have a perm 4 times the size (due to 50p unit stake), and there are usually a couple of races which are not so "competitive". So for £96 you could have 192 lines. If you were to pick one "Banker", that would leave you to do a very "wide" perm for the other 5 races (I'd only recommend this if there was a significant rollover in the Jackpot Pool) I know that the jackpot offers no "place" prize money, however the SCOOP6 place fund is a small percentage of the Win/Bonus fund so not really a profitable line if we think that getting a place is our only real chance of a return
However, having one "banker", 192 lines through five races would allow you 4 selections in two of the "competitive" races, 3 selections in another "competitive race" and 2 selections in the remaining two races.
Which would massively improve our chances of winning, albeit not quite as much.
If/when we got the jackpot up it could fund us for doing a larger perm on the future SCOOP6's.
My recommendation, if you would forgive me, for being so bold as to suggest, is that perhaps we could look at the "Roll Overs" (Jackpot and SCOOP6) and also the "competitiveness" of the races and then decide to do either the SCOOP6 or the Jackpot.
I have won the Jackpot and the SCOOP6 before (sorry not meant to be a brag.) I just wanted to point out that each time I did, I had one banker and a wide perm on the remaining 5 races. When I've tried either, with a small perm it's always been unsuccessful.
it's just I do feel that because we have limited funds to play with, the Jackpot offers much more opportunity to get a reasonable return that could then fund us for larger perms on SCOOP6's in the future. Also from a "fun" perspective, it is likely with a bigger perm and a couple of less competitive races that we will get a better run for our money even were we not to succeed.
Just a thought, tell me to get back in my box if I'm speaking out of line. Interested to know people's thoughts about this.

Hi Graham, I agree with your strategy as in waiting for big rollovers , value etc. There is guys on here who have picked 5 winners tho with the "minimal stake"

Hi, yes I have confidence in you guys! Sorry if my previous post sounded negative. Didn't mean it to be.
You guys probably already know these sites, but just in case, thought these would be useful.
