yes

no, I have done two so far and will start a third.

Yes. I will start a DMR model once the meet kicks in

BAQ and SA

Nice Jim. I did around 20 races where 14 of 20 winners were BH rank 1 with LP, SR and SP in the L-o category.

Hi Jim,
I have used tTrk and found it to be very useful as an additional column. starting to go through races of about 20 as the standard. BH is a very powerful factor and combined with SR it's super nice. :cool:

Dave,
This will not go anywhere in the court system. It takes money to fight this, and no law firm will see this through to the end. To must risk for zero guarantee in the end. Just my thought on this.

nice Jim. I'm starting today! modeling will be something new for me. I'm not as strong finding factors from the list but love where Dave started with pace in the videos. If anyone has any input on a potential factor(s) outside of pace I'm all ears. Great discussion last night

Playing Saratoga's short meet is very difficult to profit from especially if you are playing pick 4 and 5's. The results are difficult to predict with any software program. a friend of mine hit a huge pick 5 payout at Saratoga that made the meet 34K. He told me that two of legs he would never have those winners in a million years b/c of the chaos, so he picked priced horses. He had to go all in 1 leg and 6 horses deep in another. I love Saratoga but I only play a low percentage of my bankroll there. Randomness takes over big time at that track. If you are willing to put up 300/400/500$ on every pick 5 you play, then you can get lucky. Big losing streaks eat away at the bankroll. I looked at probably 12 pick 5's that meet and played 1 of them. Keep grinding b/c one small meet doesn't make your year!

It's Belterra park!! what do you expect. somebody came along and placed a 500 win bet. :rofl: I remember one night I loved a horse at CT and the odds were 9/1. I bet 800 to win on the horse and knocked the horse down to 5/1. the closest I came to being a CAW.. :rofl:

The horse had two recent A workouts as well. Definitively not a hidden horse.

How many programs do you need. i would say overkill!

Big thanks to Dave and Brian!

New York will be without Aqueduct soon enough.

The game is slowly dying in the US. Overseas racing is where it's at.

Dave, condolences to you and the family!

Wow I just talked to him not long ago when he got back from Thanksgiving break from Michigan. RIP!

don't forget these are the best horses in the field. traditional handicap or biases will not hold up. This is why on breeders' cup day I take shots! GL!

I dont' think it's the horseman's money. Sharper players money for sure.

The issue I have is you think you are betting a 10+ horse but after the gate opens its +1. Value moved to another horse. 2/3 of the winners are bet down after the gate opens.
