I'm still around and check back here sometimes. But I don't post much any more because I don't really have much to add to what's already being said. Also, over the last couple of years it's been...

They made a similar mistake with an account of mine, but involving a MUCH smaller amount. I didn't get any thanks though for pointing it out. So far, they've never made any mistakes that resulted...

Well, track management probably responds to whoever makes the most noise. If that turns out to be horsemen who own or train closers in the future, well then that's the way the track will be. I...

I still think that the really profitable trick is to know when a track will be playing fair versus biased according to whatever pace is the most prevalent, early or late. I know that it switches...

46,

Nick Mordin makes some very good points about how to profit from knowing which horses have the stamina to go the longer distances.

In the 80's, early speed was a very much under-rated...

sjk,

Thanks for confirming what my small samples showed.


Traynor,

Yeah, that's usually true but not always so you have to check it anyway. Sometimes the trend is your friend.

46,

Yeah, I've been thinking for a long time that, with all of the emphasis on early speed these days, you could really clean up at a track that favors late speed. I don't know which one that...

Why the cops never solve any redneck murders.

Because there aren't any dental records and the DNA is all the same.

That's certainly true, but what I was wondering was how predictable it might be as to whether a track will run fair or biased in the near future. My limited research shows that short term biases...

Class/Speed vs. Pace

It seems to me, based on recent research, that racetracks alternately favor class/speed and pace. This is somewhat different than what the pace enthusiants preach. I could be wrong but I think that...

toetoe,

I realize that there are better Pick 3's at other tracks, but I bet Philadelphia all year long anyway (win bets), so it wouldn't require any additional effort to add on Pick 3's. If I...

Neteller is really the way to go with deposits and withdrawls. $500 is the minimum withdrawal (with Pinnacle) to avoid fees and deposits can be much smaller than that.
