Default SUREpick Analyst remuneration

Morgan,

The short answer is yes, it is a paid job. The amount we offer varies, depending upon the experience of the analyst, how many tracks they can watch for us etc.

At the outset their is not a lot of financial incentive - it takes us a while to get each person up to speed...it is also very time consuming, our full time analysts take about 2 hours to do a meeting properly, potential applicants take much longer.
When you consider:
- We record sections for every dog in the race
- note whether the dog jumps left/right out of the boxes
- notes how they track at the first turn
- note the interference to every dog through a race

You can see that each race might be viewed about 10 times.

However, the added benefits are worthwhile 1) on line access to the most comprehensive dog database in Australia 2) access to our prices for meetings that the analyst is responsible for 3) profit share of our business for that track 3) Skills learnt in race analysis are world class.
