Really like the concept and anything that gets Tighty back onboard is obv a good thing.
Struggling with a strategy for identifying horses, can"t stick a pin in a non-existent list :)
Anyone got any hints and tips?

I"m favouring the methodical approach, David.
So, for event #3 $10,000 Stud Championship.
I"m using the "Study the Stats" link on the Staker homepage to go to the Hendon Mob rankings page.
Scrolling down brings me to all of the WSOP stats that I could ever hope to see.
I"m immediately going to do a search on the WSOP Stud rankings to see who has shown form over the years. I might pick 3 or 4 of those guys - lowering the percentage for older players, maybe increasing it for newer players (perhaps more likely to be there as their achievements are more likely to have been recent - definitely not a science though!).
Then I"ll click through to the WSOP 2015 results and search for Stud.
I"ll go through the 2015 $10k Stud Championship result in detail. I"ll probably pick 3 or 4 of those guys and take a decent percentage of each.
I might then go through the results of the 2 or 3 other Stud events that happened in that series at lower buy ins.
I"m generally looking for names I"m vaguely familar with, suggesting they are regulars and stud players and more likely to be back.
Ultimately, none of these guys are guaranteed to show. Hell they might walk into the venue with $10k in their pocket and be accosted by someone they owe money to, or just go off and play something differerent. That"s one of the very human things about poker - you just can"t predict what will happen!
When one of your guys turns up on a live update or as an end of day chipleader - it"s quite a buzz though!
Best of luck with the series.

I know this is probably a numpty question but I can scroll down and see the stats but how exactly do I do a search as you describe above. Embarrassing I know but there you go. :-[ :-[ :-[

No problem at all, Charlie.
If we start with the WSOP rankings.
Navigate to this page: http://pokerdb.thehendonmob.com/rankings/
Scroll down until you see the WSOP rankings section, which looks like this:-
You can see from the image, that a single click will get you a list of the WSOP"s best performing players in many categories, including All Time Stud. This would be your primary search and it would give you a list of several potential players to select.
To look at a recent set of results, you could take this link to the WSOP 2015 results.
http://pokerdb.thehendonmob.com/festival.php?a=r&n=15841
Once there, you will see the 60 odd events from last year"s series. Then if you search the page (CTRL F on your keyboard) and type in Stud to the search box, you can scroll through the 5 results - one of which is last year"s $10k Stud event. Click through on any event to see which players cashed and that offers you another selection of players to choose from.
Try that for starters! :)
