WINNING HORSE RACING SYSTEMS
The Platinum System - Troy
Troy (25 March 1976 – 12 May 1983) was an Irish-bred, British-trained Thoroughbred racehorse and sire. In a career that lasted from 1978 to 1979, he ran eleven times and won eight races. He is most notable for his form in the summer of 1979, when he won the 200th running of the Derby and subsequently added victories in the Irish Derby, the King George VI and Queen Elizabeth Stakes and the Benson and Hedges Gold Cup. He was retired to stud at the end of the season.
​
Troy was also my first bet (I was legally underage) and my first winning bet, ridden by Willie Carson in the 1979 Derby.
A tried and tested system generally involving higher prices compared to the other systems.
All types of racing and all classes combined.
