    Sounds much like my tournament today...2 horses lost the jockey and another DNF.
  • Pass?
    @RanchWest,
    I rarely pass wet track races simply because of the wet unless they're on wet turf and don't get taken off .
  • Pass?
    @Tony Kofalt
    Agree Tony! Knowing when to pass is as important as knowing when to play!

    @Tony Kofalt
    Just curious,Tony. Can those Formulator PPS be marked up ? ( Highlights, strikeouts, etc?)

    One can certainly feel the pain , and how Mike Maloney struggled to recover . A solid lesson to learn, even for those with a much smaller bankroll.

      It appears that we may have another strong pace advantage opportunity in the Toboggan at Aqu on Saturday. Pirate Rick in race 7, may clear this field on the turn and maintain his advantage. Looks like my single in all late horizontal plays. Any feeling on this race are appreciated!

    It certainly does appear that Pirate Rick holds a distinct pace advantage. Have some concerns as to how he handles the extra furlong at this tricky distance. I'll be giving strong consideration to Milton the Monster , particularly if the track comes up a bit wet. He's fast enough to attend the expected pace and finish well . 4 for 4 at the distance (all on off tracks,)
  • Looking for suggestions regarding early speed and race setup
    @Tony Kofalt
    We share a similar methodology ,Tony; no pace figures. Something that you might try is using "modified" QSPs. Scrap the "1 in the bank" point and instead calculate the points for each of the first 2 calls of relevant races. You might find that this helps in determining "race shape"..
