Ray, it appears that we are up against some quite formidable opponents these days, with all their bold new information techniques....

I can still get some of those goodprices as long as I remain alert & focused, altho not as freguent as once was, but I still do OK despite those big-guns....

For how much longer tho ??...I wonder..:cool:

Yes John

I posted this to show what the "little guy" is up against on the gambling side of things nowadays. It's still possible to find some value but it's getting tougher and tougher.

On the other hand, thanks for posting the 4thQ times on ODDS ON EQUULEUS.

This game can still be enjoyable from the sporting side. Looking forward to some exciting match ups this year. Let's hope the champs stay sound...

And thx to you too Ray, for posting and sharing with us all your "useful" & "quality" of information....I still lookup much of your stuff when there is a need for some truth in racing...


The place would be much less without you....:ThmbUp: :ThmbUp: :ThmbUp:

This is great - I understand why it's in the harness section, but it should be posted in the t'bred section too. Very interesting.

"Automating this decision process using machine learning may yield equally predictable results as greyhound racing, which is considered to be the most consistent and predictable form of racing."

While this wasn't the most interesting part, I was surprised to hear greyhound racing was considered the most predictable type of racing. I've always found it random, but I don't know much about it.
