Sorry I changed my mind about doing a morning line for Meadowlands. There are just too many horses to deal with. The favorite is easy and so are the long shots but everything in between is the problem.
Sorry guys. Should have kept my big mouth shut. :(

It is a tough line to make. Remember that you can also check out my betting line, on my top 4 picks, at www.ustrotting.com

Always do Pandy. But your odds are more of a fair value line than a morning line. Am I correct?

Yes, that's correct. It's much better than a morning line, in my opinion.

I got a question. What are the chances that the computer that is used to make the ML at these tracks can be done a second time without any restrictions on the computer. That way we can compare the fake ML with the real morning line that the computer actually believes. I guess it would take a new website or something to go to where we can all compare the two. I would like to see if the computer can actually identify 99-1 shots and 1-9 shots with some accuracy.

thanks

Interesting question. Hard to do I would think.

I actually think it would be quite easy for the computer to do it. It already has all the info it needs. All you have to do is remove the restrictions.

Darrin is one of the best in the industry imo

Darrin is one of the best but even he has restrictions. The tracks don't want the ml favorite to be too low because it discourages betting and then you have public relations on the other end. An owner knows his horse should be 20 -1 but you make it 50-1 and he or she might be offended.
This may sound silly but in the real world this is the way the Morning Line works.
