Freddy Dawkins, 32, believes he has formulated a Trackside system capable of delivering profits “until TAB cotton on to it”. 

The unemployed aspiring crypto trader says he has spent “countless hours” observing the virtual races, but only recently started to notice subtle patterns emerging. 

“Punters bang on about Trackside ‘systems’ but I reckon I’ve got the machine’s measure with this one - I might have cracked it,” said Dawkins who was recently the victim of an online scam. 

“I don’t want to give the whole thing away, but I’m playing separate quinellas using the two roughies, 11 and 12. 

“I have them roving with the most common numbers and then it’s just about the timing, which I’ll keep to myself thank you very much,” Dawkins said with a laugh, before revealing his system is yet to show a profit in the two days since its official launch. 

“The results will come, I’ve got faith.” 

Observed scribbling notes as horses galloped to the gates for game 973, Dawkins said he was also working on a “mounting yard” theory centred around how the horses appeared on screen prior to the start of the race. 

“That one is still very much in the testing phase,” Dawkins told The Pakistan Star, refusing to reveal specific details.
