A wonderful post.
Months ago there was a question about your favorite handicapping books.
I was the only one to mention Chaplin.
Of course, I was much more profitable with his way of thinking in the pre Meadowlands days. Not sure if his way of thinking is obsolete or I just overhandicap these days.
Your uncovered foward moivement is something I always look at.
Matter of fact first thing I look at in the program are any horses who have raced uncovered last out and have the fastest last quarter of the entrants.
It was a profit maker years ago but as you say early speed now is the way to go now.
Has the game changed due to the bikes?
Ask Pandy!
In TBreds my influence has been Huey Mahl who has stood the test of time.
His way of thinking and CJs figures are what I use.
