Just curious in terms of your lingo on your software where the number # 11 Idratherbeblessed was on your line in Race # 10 at Fair Grounds was Sat. and was wondering where "First Pitch" last race at Aqueduct yesterday. LOL.. funny baseball season getting underway... there is no cheating in horse racing despite being very cheap horses in the last race...........................
Both horses were "high odds" horses. But, both races were "Chaos 5" races. If you decided to swing for the fences, and dutch 6 horses at FG and 5 horses at AQU-- you would have received a nice return.
The FG race was pretty impossible but not the AQU race. The Big Brian objects rated the horse a 1-7. If you had boxed the five 1s you get the exacta and tri. 1s are always dangerous.
FG Race10 1. The race is a chaos 5.
Chaos 5s are best played without handicapping.
2. Fire the Neal and sort.
That puts the winner as the 2nd best GOOD BET in the race - an automatic bet.
In this example, I went down 6 horses - one horse beyond the "GOOD BETS."
Special Note: What prevents us from hitting races like this one is the insistence on handicapping the winner instead of simply throwing the appropriate number of longshots up as bets.
Not currently a Determinator user and this is not meant to be a redboard, but I had this horse as a play because I just love 2nd time Lasix horses combined with any type of potentially positive change: In this case the improved workout since last raced and blinkers-on. I have had more than just a few scores lately in maiden races that look very similar to this one.
I happened to notice that second positive work that you mentioned after I made my initial post. There just seems to be something about that second Lasix angle that makes it a very potent catalyst when combined with virtually any other positive change.
