I see a lot of Santa Anita posts and I was wondering what your approach to capping these races is as I find SA to be a unique track with its speed. It always seems that races are won and lost on the back stretch of that track. Don't even pay attention to the horse(s) that come out hot off the post because chances are they'll finish in last. I did take the 4 Horse(View from the Top)today in the 2nd race(WPS) but that was pure luck I took the bet strictly for the odds(9-1) and the fact that it was just a 5-Horse Race so I figured my odds were 1 in 5. I hadn't a clue of the riders or horses. I'm an East Coaster so I'm more of and Aqueduct and Yonkers guy. I love the S.A. races when I'm at the Race Book and they seem to always attract a lot of excitement and attention. I look forward to seeing your posts and I have played some of your entries. It's just too time consuming to track the trainers, horses, owners, jockies, conditions, etc from 2 tracks. Keep the posts coming I do read em. I'll be more than willing to share my handicapping of Aqueduct Racing but it seems like nobody lurks in this forum except for the Major Races. It's too bad because it truly is a great sport.

i know what you mean i'm lost at aqeduct and belmont.don't know the horses,trainers or jocks then throw in all the rain ,snow and inner dirt track ect.i guess thats why i stick with so. cal.its always sunny and dry.there is a speed bias out west you better be near the pace when you hit the stretch.still overall the tracks play mostly fair as the best horse can overcome this.most of my big plays come from sticking with one track watching the races daily knowing the horse's and trainers,trouble lines.east coast racing is great wish there was time for both.with the small fields out west its getting hard to get a price may have to make the switch if things don't change.look forward to exchanging info. and a few winners with you.see you got some plays today will check them out, tvg channel is on the tube most the day,with the volume down so i don't get swayed by the so called experts.:D

I am happy to have come across you sir,

I am happy to have come across you sir,

I am stepping away from a very successful sports wagering career to focus on Aqueduct racing full-time. Sports wagering and oddmakers in general have become part of the monster that is technology. It is nearly impossible to find an open challenge on the board from the oddsmakers these days that actually pit their brains versus your. I'm tired of offshore sports books and college kids that think they are bigshot highrollers at the casinos. I was taught this game by my Italian Godfather. I have the oldschool approach that is hard to come by. That is I put in the hours. Good to see somebody else puts in the hours too. Good Luck to you and many superfectas!!! I will be up early Monday Morning and I'll be sure to type my leans for Aqueduct for you before I head to the book. Remember 1 name when it comes to Jockies at Aqueduct....Castellano, he is the hot rider right now and he always seems to blow away the competition on a fast track and especially has fast starts and knows how control speed in the middle posts. He won 3 of 7 starts yesterday I believe. I was short on time and could only focus on races 6-9. Good Luck and it's good to see there are people still focused on oldschool horses and capping.
