Anecdotally "I'm not betting that horse at 2-1 from out there!" we hear often. This makes sense to me. Great stats Ray.

That looks like about 33% win percentage Ray?

What's standard W% for odds on? I think all chalk is about 40% overall, right?

Great job Greg.

Meadow's stuff was good, the stats were detailed. And David Aragona, Mike, CJ and Paul Matties were like they usually are. Really good read.

I remember that too. I wondered why it died, but I assume it was because of complaints from factions, rather than data, because as the Meadows shows it seems it has some worth.

I know I am probably in the minority, but when I used to go live five days a week, each of us throwing in $5 and deciding on horses for our show parlay is something I enjoyed. Great memories.

Ouch, the Elliston quotes in that article are cringeworthy.

The place has done a complete 180 since Nick left. They deserve the brand hit they've taken with customers, imo.
