I agree in principle that if you can "follow the money", you should be able to do well. But I'm a conservative bettor. I don't like making multiple bets if I don't have to.

There's a few hard and fast and true and tried and tested principles (I like calling them this rather "rules) that are axiomatic in this game, as far as I'm concerned. One of these is to never accept...

"Betting habits" -- that's quite subjective. How do you distinguish between inside/smart money from dumb money in betting pools? Also, you would to operate on assumption that every stable is a...

We don't use price lines or impact values. And we do rely on the collective opinion of the public to find our overlays. Call us old fashioned. :)

Talking about overlays, would the 8 horse in...

For you info I have it done just that with multiple "TOMORROW'S horses" in the relatively recent past on the Selections forum. Just do a search on threads started by yours truly. :coffee:

Do you wager on horses when you think they are well placed? I do, too. I also wager on horses when their connections (specifically trainers and jockeys) are "well placed", i.e. in their comfort...

Yeah, but I was saying that the 8's trainer was positioned better than the 7's under today's race conditons. This made the 8's TI factor, quantitatively speaking, stronger than 7s. And the 8's TI...

How far back do you go to get those $net numbers?...
