I would never expect the red scan technique of which I am NOT the author to work all of the time, or even half the time, only that in a first time look in my case it worked somewhat well.

You took a first look at Lehane's "red scan" technique, and it impressed you with its performance. Will you now make it a permanent feature of your handicapping process? Is that how we should come up with our contenders when we handicap...either a horse fits the "red scan" criteria, or it gets eliminated from consideration at the very start of the handicapping process?
If Lehane offered this technique as an additional factor to consider, then I would have no problem with it. But he offers it as the foundation of his contender-selection process...and as such, the method fails miserably...because its restrictive rules eliminate the most accomplished horses in the race from the very start.
