Thanks CMB. Chronic seconditis today, 4 seconds Wotadoll 2nd the last placer. Lost overall, but once again you'd have made a profit on Betfair place only. Will update all the BSPs later.

So, for interest (cos I didn't do this) Betfair place returns were 16.39, profit 6.39. Less commission of course (only paid on a bet's profit). About 6 points clear profit unless you're a premium payer.
The Great Story 2nd 16/1, thought it had it won till the fav swept past in the final few yards.Earlier Hee Haw 3rd 9/2 (10s posted). 4 placers so far, already yet another profitable Betfair place day.
Thanks guys. Ended up with Chanceiton 3rd 9/1 (20s posted). Have to say I am very pleased with the high place strike overall. The way to go seems to be Betfair place, with very small stakes (1/20th of place singles unit stakes) win doubles and trebles to hoover up the occasional win doubles and trebles, which pay big.
The records here only go back 6 days, mine include 2 previous ones. From the 8 days I make it 6 won and 19 placed from 77 runners, a win/place SR of almost 33%.
At these prices (and I've been refining the selections to include mostly only 8/1 and above, and increasingly getting more of those 20/1 and over) that's more than enough to get a healthy profit on singles at Betfair SP place only, with very small stakes win doubles and trebles added, though sometimes (well, until a big win) doing the latter by splitting up selections into groups as shown previously above.
Way to go is doing the place singles at 1% of bank on each selection, stakes for next day adjusted at end of each betting day. Initial bank 200 points. For illustration purposes make it a £200 bank, thus £2 per point to start with. I probably won't be posting these on the board each say though.
So I start off with yet another second, Motahassen 2nd 8/1 (10s posted, but tbh the price had collapsed to 7s in the minutes between me noting 10s and posting here, then SP drifted to 8s).
Should be a pile of place points profit in these, surprised if not well into double figures. Will do win doubles and trebles by meeting (to 1/40th place unit stakes now):
