Actually, all that stuff you wrote doesn't apply much to the way I cap them. BIGGEST part of my handicapping is .... knowing the how the TRACK works.. it's the track that counts. PLENTY of times I used to not even bother with the pps at Philly and did VERY good. Still don' t bother with them sometimes even now, but I usually getem cause they're free for frequent bettors at TT. After that it's knowing the horses that run at that track (some liike inside posts, some do better for one TRAINER than a different one, Some JOCKEYS and HORSES get along better than other pairs do. Don't even bother that much with Beyer's or speed ratings.

EVERYbody looks for the "ALL AROUND" solution to pick horses.. IMO - that doesn't work. No "universal" system is worth a damn.

Here's what I did ... watched Philly for something like FIVE YEARS, and ONLY Philly. Got to know the horses by WATCHING them, not on paper. Good tracks to follow are ones that pretty much keep a constant colony of horses, riders, trainers, AND OWNERS. Pick a track HM; one that I know of would be Laurel, Philly, even Suffolk. Calder was a very good one before they went El Spanole. And Aqueduct, that's prob the best one, but you'll be betting favorites there. Still, putting in the study and TIME and that track will payoff.

Sorry, their ain't no crying in Basebawl and their ain't no shortcuts in hoss wacin, HM. Your biuddy who knows football like the back of his hand is on the right track. That's how ya gotta know the hosses at YOUR track. Touts peddled "universal systems" for years, the public gave up on them cause they got tired of losing their moola. Look at the attendence figures and handle.

Besides, if I spilled ALL the beans that took me a lifetime to develope.. . just think what all them PTs (Peepers) would do to us at a small handle track like Philly. LOL

Be happy and just follow the picks while thems coming.

Man, there's a ton of hungry wolves out there, HM.

Thems musta thought I "spilt the beans" :mj07: :mj07:

Now I don't know which book to write.. "How to pick SPOTTERS" for Hammy or "How to pick WEINERS" for you ?

Still, my offer's still good though... MJ members ONLY get a 50% discount on it. The bad news -> it's gonna cost a LOT of moola :(.

So far .. . . great card for a Friday. I almost did BLOW IT today... thought they started at 3:30 p.m. :eek:

LUCKILY, I checked Equibase at 11:00 a.m. today.

I should have something up for a late race, I'm starting to run behind right now.

G.L. luck today (hosses" and tomorrow (FBers)

BTW .... for Hammy, the 3 and 8 look decent ONLY decent though, though in this 4th race. worth a small play at the odds.


For HM, (on paper) no. 9 deserves to be favored.

edited - That was the real BULLsheet over there, thought my no. 3, DANCE WITH BULL, was gonna get second place at 40-1. .Close, but didn't happen.. SON-Mon- Oh -BEACH

HUH???

HUH???

All I can say is WOW! :0034

Man, was that no. 3 EVER ready.

NO, I didn't have the zacta.. UGH! FLUCK!

But, I did play the no. 3 AND the no. 2 Win/Place. I'll gladly take it cause each one was 13-1 and my tickets were pretty much bigger than two stinkin bucks on each.

I HOPE somebody caught at least one of them cause they were just getting ready to loadem (usually a field that size take about 2 mins. , let me know if ya did catch one of them). Spotting, playing, and then posting hosses ain't easy... really gotta rush.

BTW, yesterday and today and, worst of all - LATELY, them Philly zactas just ain't paying like good ole Philly style exotics. I've been disappointed with the payoffs I got with longshots in my zactas a LOT lately. And NOW I see they posted the exacta for this race and it's (hate to write this Philly Park) .. a ripoff. WTF is goin on at this twack lately??

Hang in there.
